Sports broadcasters wildly overestimate how happy I am to hear that a successful athlete comes from a long line of rich, successful athletes.

95% of the time, Bonhomme is just talking about how outdoor activities are great, and the rest of the time, he’s saying he’s eternal and will bury us all.

Clapping my flippers together and honking like a harbor seal when a Super Bowl ad for a condiment or gambling app featuring two celebrities unexpectedly reveals a third celebrity as its punchline. Bouncing a ball around on my snout. My wife has to throw me a herring to get me to calm down.

All Sloche flavor names are humorous and often gross, a marketing angle aimed at pleasing a mostly adolescent crowd. The brand mission was described as: "To satisfy their need for sensory gratification and protest against authority, parents and society. "[3] The beverage's colors are vivid and the taste is said [4] to be much sweeter than that of Slush Puppie and slightly more acidic. The following is an incomplete list of current and discontinued flavors:

Winchire Wacheur (2000) [5] (Windshield Washer), formerly: Schtroumpf Γ‰crasΓ© (Crushed Smurf) renamed because of concerns over copyright infringement. Actual flavor is blue raspberry.

I forgot there was an episode of Drew Carey where Rush Limbaugh comes to Kate's defense because she argued that a lot of conservatives want free speech on the internet. I'd say it was a weird episode but they're all weird episodes.

for some reason, the fact that Natasha Bedingfield performed "Unwritten" at Dick Clark's Rockin' New Year's Eve in back-to-back years has stuck with me

here they are side-by-side

it goes off the rails in the middle but somehow makes its way back
