Sorry in advance to Padres fans, but this is IU baseball's shining star:

Schwarber does it again!

Hit a 488ft dinger last night for the Phills to win the game! Dude keeps it up and wins multiple World Series, he could make it to the HOF!

I'll have to take your word for it. I've never seen it, myself.

You do realize that's not a real, right?

And no, it's not a furry in costume.

This reminds me of an old SNL sketch that was on the 10PM SNL rerun last Saturday (they show an hour of an old SNL show at 10PM on Saturdays, followed by the current episode at 11:30PM).

Tim Meadows was the host of the "Kevin Franklin Show." Meadows kept making absurd statements/opinions and then getting into arguments over them with his guests (Danny Aiello and Coolio). Eventually he would relent and say "I’m sorry. I’m terribly wrong. I apologize." Here's one snippet (couldn't find video clip online other than the full episode with no ability to skip ahead):

Caller: [over the phone] Yes, um yesterday on your show you said that they should institute mandatory drug testing for the Special Olympics. Because there’s rampant use of illegal drugs and steroids amongst the athletes?​

​

Kevin Franklin: Yes. And your question is?​

​

Caller: I just think you’re wrong.​

​

Kevin Franklin: Oh, really? Well let me ask you ma’am. Are you a special Olympian?​

​

Caller: No, I’m a housewife.​

​

Kevin Franklin: Housewife? [scoffs] Well then you should shut your pie hole and talk about knitting or something you know more about.​

​

Coolio: Yo’ man! Why don’t you chill?​

​

Danny Aiello:[upset] You know, that’s the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard. I’ve done volunteer work for the Special Olympics. Its all about kids participating and having a good time. Its not about competition. So the kids, they have no reason to be on illegal drugs.​

​

Kevin Franklin: So you’re gonna sit there and say to me that because the Special Olympics is all about fun and no competition, that none of the kids use illegal drugs to enhance their performances?​

​

Danny Aiello: [in a rage] YEAH!!!​

​

Kevin Franklin: I’m sorry. I’m terribly wrong. Ma’am thanks for your call. Well that’s about all the time we have but before I go I’d like to respond to a letter I received regarding a commentary I did entitled “The Holocaust was a myth”. I’m sorry. I was terribly wrong. I stand corrected. In the future I’ll make sure that I proofread any commentaries written by our writers here on the show.​

And Rebecca DeMornay was never in my room, what's your point.

I love watching those debates and love the fact the PM has to explain himself to parliament. Maybe Goat is right.

She'll quiz me when she knows I'm not listening. Usually it's her telling me about her day which is really just bitching about everybody at work.

I zone out. I've tried. It's a weakness.

What?

 

[larsIU]

What?

Her:

Julie, you remember Julie? I told you about her last week. Well, she's a bitch. Absolute bitch. So, we're in a meeting and I'm presenting and she keeps butting in and I'm like "if you want to run the meeting, then run the meeting". Of course that's in my head b/c she reports directly to Jim.

Me: Which Jim (thinking I'm smart b/c I know there are two).

Her: **intimidating stare**

Me: **contemplating single life at 47**

Her: My boss Jim. Who else would it be? Well, anyway......blah blah blah

Me: **I wonder if the Colts will try to run RPO stuff with Ehlinger at QB**

(Psssst...my "what" was aimed at your post; as in I wasn't paying attention. Oh, never mind...if you're not even going to try...)

Haha. No, I got it. I just decided to literally recap what happened about an hour ago. Names changed to protect the innocent of course.

So a different bitch? Not Julie?

It does start with a J. I'm not putting a ton of effort into it to be sure

Okay, I just thought I might know where your wife worked.

I see where this is going.

Is your wife in insurance? I keed I keed.

She tends to take over any meeting she's in. It's a character flaw.

I do t know if this is good stuff, but I couldn’t resist. Puts a whole new spin on the 6 degrees of separation game.

Dying laughing. There's always some bitch at work that's out to get them

I usually say something like “maybe Julie was having a bad day.” Or “ sounds like you might be reading too much into that.”

Then we don’t talk for 3 days.

reminds me of a bit in ELR where debra and ray are arguing......

debra - "do you know what i think...?"

ray - "if i say yes do you still have to tell me...?"


my wife loves that one

Mine really has to have a nemesis. It’s insane.

Her job has more internecine politics than HOTD

Does 6 degrees of separation apply here?
