I had every intention of completely ignoring
the game last night, but...
I got bored because it was such a rainy, shitty day here, so we figured we'd just pop over to the bar for a coupla beers and come back home. Well, the bar (it's open air outside) was deadsville - thankfully, and we knew four of the six people sitting there. Long story short, we ended up leaving just as halftime was about to start, and somehow got home just as that shitshow with Rihanna was starting.
The plastic tit cover and the snatch grabbing were interesting to say the least, but if there was any other symbolism in those outfits or the fucked up dance moves, it musta blew right past me. Honest to god what the fuck is wrong with the people who put this shit together?

Remember, of course, that this is the City that has a sitting, for-real judge in session in a makeshift court room along with holding cells in a mini-jail in their teams' stadium during home games.
Philadelphia Eagles fans flooded streets almost immediately after the team's crushing 38-35 defeat to the Kansas City Chiefs Sunday night, swarming City Hall and clashing with police that had been stationed throughout the city in fear of riots and unrest. Police had made multiple arrests as of 10:30pm, with disgruntled locals seen scaling lampposts, chanting 'f*** the Chiefs', and hurling glass bottles throughout the city's downtown neighborhood. Footage circulating on social media also shows several residents lighting fireworks, with others egging on armed SWAT teams tasked with keeping the piece. Police were even in the firing line, with angry fans seen pushing a marked vehicle down a street. The loss is compounded by the fact the city's baseball team, the Phillies, similarly crashed out of the World Series just a few months ago. Read her lips:

The original title of this (formerly) black & white print (the photo is by Inge Morath) was entitled 'A perfect night, Central Park' - it's from the early '60's.
The horse and buggy carriage rides around the Park are just one of the many things we grew up loving that your grand-kids will never experience. Kinda sad...

Adidas said the decision to not sell Kanye's Yeezy crap is expected to slash the company's full-year revenue by $1.28 billion and its operating profit $533 million this year.

There's almost nothing - especially a professionl sports team that I did not have a bet one - that would ever make me react that way. Well, certainly not in public, anyway. Jeez - imagine how embarassed this guy is today when he finds out this picture of him crying is on the front page of the Philadelphia Daily News. Yikes.

Speaking of porn stars, Australian porn star Angela White nearly died while filming a sex scene, her co-star Keiran Lee said.
Lee, a popular British adult performer, claims Angela, 37, was rushed to hospital with a burst appendix after filming the hour-long sex scene in 2013. 'I put her into hospital and this was actually not on purpose.'

And if this wasn't the stupidest ad during the game,
I'm the idiot and they're all geniuses.
If you never seen the show Scrubs (which I think was one of the funniest show on TV for about ten episodes) and you didn't recognize Vincent, how did this ad make any sense to anyone. I had to look it up this morning just to figure out what is was for.

I can tolerate almost any seat on a plane for an hour or so, but when you get talking about longing-hauling a flight for three or more hours, then that's a game-changer. Check this shit out. What an amazing upgrade! Best as I can tell from reading the article, you can't even direct-book these little 'suites' - they may only be available as upgrades. Maybe I'm reading it wrong. Check it out for yourslef here:
There are times when this might not be a bad idea after all...

get to appreciate - except maybe on some old YouTube reels.
I was a sucker for this - the Chocolate Eclair, and I just
found out that they might actually be available somewhere in supermarkets. I gotta check this out. Those things have a little bit
of heroin in them as I remember. That'd be cool if they are getable.

Don't despair Philadelphia; an overnight recount found two more touchdowns for the Eagles.
ReplyDeleteWe had company over so yesterday's game was going to be on. As the halftime performance was about to begin, I came down to the computer; had no desire to watch/hear it. Not surprising, a little while later I could hear my wife and others hollering out, "Don't these people realize that families are watching this?! That's disgusting!" I'm glad I chose not to watch.
ReplyDeleteOccasionally see chocolate eclair in Sheetz and WaWa. Don't think they are Good Humor brand though.
