Someone may have spread the word that you're offering free pizza upon presentation of an "I voted sticker," so when you start hearing the "PIZZA! PIZZA! PIZZA!" chant down the block...

Huh, so that's what "BBMak" stood for.

Only a matter of time before he has to do one on his own YouTube channel

Books & Bewitchment Isla Jewel That is what is written on the book cover. Flying books and the silhouettes of a man and a woman also appear on it.

Just finished the ARC of Books & Bewitchment by @delilahsdawson.bsky.social that's written under the pen name Isla Jewell. If you're looking for a comfy, cozy story with a bit of magic, this is the story for you when it comes out next year. Plus. there's a whole opening-a-bookstore story!

Forget I even mentioned it

Did you see a commercial for a new season of MILF Manor?

That drug commercial during the Yankees game must've had the longest list of possible complications from taking it than other drug commercials have had.

Dick Monfort: "Bill, you're like family, so I can't fire you, but you're not a Monfort so I can't fail you up to somewhere higher. You're resigning, yes?"

*taps sign again*

Look, if you want to be Rockies GM there's really no reason you couldn't be it.

I fell asleep just as Packers-Cowboys OT started and woke up when someone was talking like the game had been won ... and it turns out the game ended in a tie!?!

None of the players down on the field got trampled, right? There was almost no time to get up before the crowd got on the field

I've recently encountered a Matt Brown who is trying to sell me on an AI Search tracking tool. He's not very convincing.

Yeah, yeah he does.

I'll give you 4 out of 5 ERICs for this one.

How about a shout out to the UPN show Shasta McNasty?

One Survivor contestant saying they "absolutely love poop" and another squirting water from her mouth to get mud out of a guy's face and saying, "Well, that's a first." The biggest, best laughs since the launch of the new era.

Your course evaluations were not great. People complained about the stories you told, like about a former coworker who kept a slice of pizza in his drawer for morning pizza. I don't know, I'd give high marks for those stories.

I'm interpreting this as you conceding that you are secretly a WWII, PhD-holding historian and reading just to keep up with the latest literature

A yellow-gold box with "3.0" in white and ten small circles below it, three colored white.

This should be reevaluated and graded down.

A screengrab from a 2010 Colorado Rockies game. A Dodgers catcher walks in front of Troy Tulowitzki at the end of a Rockies loss. Tulowitzki's bat is broken into two long parts. One is slender and sticking up from home plate.

Found this screen grab from 2010 when Tulo ended a Rockies loss with his bat in two pieces, one sticking out from home plate. I always think of this as being almost as memorable as Helton celebrating the NLCS win.

Reels being the main tab on that new app is the worst!

YouTube video by Theophrastus Lord Refa's Death, Babylon 5 (And the Rock Cried Out...)

This remains one of the best Babylon 5 moments

Squirrel!

Well, ever since 2010 or so I've been saying Rocktober 2007 was the worst thing to ever happen to the Rockies.

That's just a false memory of him not having touched. He definitely touched.

Remembering that Matt Holliday touched home plate, eh? Eh?

I turned 40 back on Sunday!

OK, but when did the last president who attended William & Mary serve as president, Amazon?

The High Republic era's Marchion Ro growing tired of "ruling," deciding to blow his ship up, and wanting the entire galaxy be consumed by the blight makes more and more sense since Trials of the Jedi came out.

Well, if you insist!
