  1. McKissic with a great burst of speed there to get a 1st when he really shouldn't have.
  2. Fuller got away with contact, but there was also that uncalled pushoff, so I'd say good no call there, announcers.
  3. All of our receivers fell down, nobody bothered to get back up. Very nice.
  4. Kind of a borderline flag, but considering how often those go against us I'm not gonna complain.
  5. So the Cowboys have lost 3 guys in the 1st quarter, and there's still almost 6 minutes left. Will the Cowboys have enough players to get a whole game in?
  6. Socialist jackass. Just GIVING away free coal to the naughty? Way to destroy the demand in the industry, jerk.
  7. It's just one bad apple. Probably in charge of a bunch of other bad apples. Nothing to see here, there's no saying about bad apples.
  8. https://www.cracked.com/article_28514_5-ways-dumb-conspiracies-suck-in-normal-people.html
  9. It's easy when you don't think of them as "people" but as "wild animals that need put down."
  10. I can't believe this team is actually .500, but I guess this team usually plays decent ball for the 1st couple months before bottoming out. Yay shortened season!
  11. Do you have any idea how disappointing it is that this isn't a Pittman4Two thread?
  12. Dan survived the bombshell that the cheerleaders were taken to other countries and had their passports confiscated while pimping them out to rich guys. If he wasn't forced to sell after that, "mere" sexual harassment won't take him down.
  13. See I've got the opposite opinion on Possums. They eat ticks and can't carry rabies, which are pluses. And when my dad died and I had to clean out his house, it took me maybe 3 minutes to get a family of possums off his back porch. Much easier than when I've had to help get rid of squirrels (or cats. I'd much rather face a possum than a cat).
  14. Because terrorism works. We may not like to admit it (or in cases where it's white dudes with guns, call it something else entirely), but it's true.
  15. Or your parents could shove you into a 12th rate private school, and you don't learn either. It's fun!
  16. Be glad you're not in PA. Most of the alcohol (and all the hard stuff) is sold in state run liquor stores, which have shut down. They only within the last month started selling online, and have had to set up a lotto type system for who can order to not overwhelm the system. Beer you can still get in certain gas stations and grocery store, but even that only happened in the last 10-12 months, so that's more luck than anything else.
  17. Working in a grocery retailer I get why we're still open and that people need to shop. The people that blow my mind are the ones (usually older, but not always) that are in there at least every other day if not more often. Or the ones that will spend literal hours in the same spot talking to people (this was the norm before, it just stands out more now), or the ones where both parents are in the store shopping with the kids instead of 1 parent doing it while the other stays at home with the kids. Not everyone that's currently out in public needs to be shamed, I get that. I can tell who the nurses are coming in after their shift for groceries and other supplies, and I totally get that. I can understand the single parents bringing in their small kids because they don't have a choice. I understand people need their meds from the pharmacy. I know some people have limited budgets or even SNAP/WIC/SSI/etc. and have to do 1-2 large shopping trips a month because of limited travel options and that it's a time consuming process. Sure, part of it is that I'm jealous because I'm considered "essential" and don't get to enjoy a few paid weeks off to stay in my house. As an introvert, that's the dream, but I know my job can't be done from home, so I get to go in to work day after day while this thing keeps spreading. I'm partially worried about getting sick, but mostly it's the part of my brain screaming at me every day that despite needing to do my job, I'm probably going to end up being the reason somebody dies from this (because they either got it from me when I didn't know I had it, or got it from me before I could officially be tested for it). I don't know anybody life story (except the ones that tell me every detail of their life after they ask for help finding 1 item), but some people take actions that make it difficult for me not to judge them subconsciously. It's super easy to trash stupid college kids who won't stay away from the beach on Spring Break. They're young and dumb, and it's 1 big easy to point out situation so they make an easy target. People get a lot more defensive when they're being called out for doing the everyday things that they could be avoiding by aren't because of vague justifications they can easily make up.
  18. Fair enough. I'll stick to my personal experience and simply say "People in rural Western PA seem to be mostly ignoring Shelter in Place warnings and spending lots of time in grocery stores because there's nowhere else to gather and get the social interaction they're missing."
