While researching trivia, I just learned that one of my favorite voice actors (and a personal hero), Rob Paulsen, was in the very first "got milk?" advert; he's the radio trivia host. That man has had such an influence on me, I don't even know it sometimes.

"Loveuary", like literally any other time of year on Hallmark, has a bunch of movies with identical "plots" where Spiegel catalogue models stare gormlessly at each other, because that's what love is all about.

Remember how The Simpsons invented "Love Day" as an absurd holiday? Hallmark Channel has an all-month programming block called "Loveuary". That show really did predict everything.

You know what rules? Ordering something from Fairfax, and seeing it sent to a postal distribution center in Richmond. It's far more efficient to send something a hundred miles south than to drive like, a tenth of that distance north.

Tate looks like a drawing on a Victorian-era boxing advertisement defending against those uppercuts. Couldn't have happened to a bigger shitfuck.

—I’ve been asked to baptise the King of Spain’s daughter
—Infanta?
—No, holy water as usual. Weird thing to ask honestly

It took as much time to make as Lalas takes to think about anything that he says. Maybe even longer.

Looks like SNL has their cold open this week. Sometimes, I wish I had an "adult character in Peanuts" audio filter to drown out some voices on TV. Maybe I should just invest in a trumpet.

It's been done.

I did just respond to a survey they sent out, and I gave them both barrels, so to speak. I'm sure some intern just rolled their eyes and deleted it. If DCU is just here to squeeze the marks, in increasingly stupid ways, then so be it; I've got far better ways to spend my time and money.

Just today I got an email from DCU practically screaming at me to "lock in" my season ticket for 2026. Never mind that I haven't had a season ticket for almost 20 years now; I've never been less inclined to give them my money, then this news emerges. No fucking chance. This club is a farce.

The world's oldest Quentin Blake illustration.

I'll be damned; I actually got the PenFed trivia question right. #ALLCAPS

I have a friend who won tickets to tonight's Caps game, but was going to stay in to study for an important test. They made the right decision. #ALLCAPS

Trying out a Halloween gag name again; no one got it the first time, but that was back on Twitter.

The only comedy, or bravery, I've ever seen on this show is when the Roots played Michele Bachmann onto the stage with "Lyin' Ass Bitch" by Fishbone. The chickenshit Fallon threw Questlove under the bus afterward as well.

Last year I went to only my second DCU match at Audi; we gave up a 2-goal lead to the Union and limped to a draw on a miserable night of rain. After seeing the current scoreline, that result was a bargain.

I feel like I need to pull up sometime soon and pour one out as near to Section 120 as soon as possible.

Christmas came a bit early.

To be fair, nowadays it looks more like a tribute to RFK Jr. than his father.

Ornstein for accuracy; Fabrizio for the greatest "HERE WE GO!" in history.

Me being born:

Last night, I had a trivia question about this; in the notes was the usual "conservatives hate DEI" line, and a bit about the DNC tweeting "we think it sucks too". It's nice to know the "opposition" is not only fighting a dumb culture war, but fighting it FOR the assholes that started it.

Big Stoke and Josh Fuller? It's a Nova Pro reunion! #AEWCollision

Here's a sobering reminder of my advancing age; while I'm listening to the new Clipse album like I'm in my 20s, ad advert for Mutual of Omaha comes on, and I see that I'm at the minimum age to qualify for their life insurance.

Yes, this is actual sad news. "Feels So Good" has always been the shit.

I had a great joke at trivia tonight that no one got. There was a question about "I Am Legend", and a note about Will Smith watching "Shrek" to combat loneliness. My joke was that "Shrek" was a better choice for him to watch than "Madagascar".

They ended up shutting down all the rides before I could get on; there's a slow-moving storm coming in. We may try to sneak in a morning visit before we head home.

Actually, that'll settle the bath for me, haha. The Wolf was good; it scared the hell out of me, but that's the point.
