It’s not a good sign when I turned off the trailer due to boredom.

You are a saint taking in a dog at that age. You gave him a wonderful last couple of years. Sorry for your loss.

While the accounts are most like exaggerated, so are most things from that time. We still learned about Paul Revere and not the 40 other riders out that night. Or the fact the Revere was captured, while the others with him escaped. And Samuel Prescott was the one who actually finished the ride.

Like in American history you hear about Paul Revere riding a damn horse over and over, yet you never learn about Nancy Morgan Hart. I learned who she was from a Bad Cop/Bad Cop song.

I did the opposite. I’d hold my son over my head and lower him down so his belly would hit the top of my head. It cracked him up every time. I called it baby hat. Sadly he is now taller than me. And I’m 6’1" 😭

Max is the best boy

Chris Elliott’s character is pretty insufferable in the first season too. Glad they toned him down later on. But I agree completely worth the watch.

Yup, they throw out these maps they set a precedent to throw out Texas and all of the other red state gerrymandering.

How is St Denis? I watched the first few episodes when it came out, but couldn’t really get into it. There were some funny parts but I felt like a lot of jokes were reliant on someone being familiar with the medical industry, which I’m not at all. Either that or I was unfairly comparing it to Scrubs subconsciously.

I got tickets to their St Patrick’s Day show this year for me an my daughter. She’s 11 and it will be her first concert. I can’t wait!

Howie and Jeffrey have always been good about dropping locker room poisoners. If they had no problems cutting TO and DeSean for their distractions, I find it hard to believe they’d keep AJ around if it’s as bad as the media makes it seem.

One of the biggest ones I’ve corrected is taking an active role in their education. My parents would get so mad at me when I got bad grades. I’d constantly get grounded and told you can do better, or literally slapped up the side of the head. But my parents never asked me if I had homework or tests coming up.

If I asked for help with my homework my dad would talk down to me and be like, why don’t you get this. It took me running away from home at 15 to finally get sent to a doctor and low and behold get diagnosed with ADHD.

My wife had a similar, but thankfully a less physical situation. Her mom would ground her if she got a bad grade. But she got straight A’s outside of math, so it obviously wasn’t for lack of trying. But no offers to help or asking what was wrong just you got a bad grade your grounded until your next report card.

Anyways, all of that is to say, I stay involved with my kids school work. Not to a helicopter parent level, but I check with them daily if they have homework, and make sure they know they can come to me if they need help. I remember the first time my daughter failed a test, I didn’t yell and she didn’t get in trouble. We sat down at the table and reviewed it, and made sure she understood it by the end of the night.

Both of my kids get wonderful grades and I reinforce to them that their hard work is what got them those grades, and reward them for it. Not punishment for bad grades.

Simon Whistler is basically my melatonin.

I never cared for Kellen Moore because I thought he relied too much on gadget plays. Man do I miss him now.

Ha, it looks like you’re much better at taking your cutie to the groomer than me.

Fuck the critics. This show is a fun good watch. It’s low brow and simple but you know what it’s one of the few shows that makes me actually laugh out loud. It doesn’t take itself seriously, at all, and it’s a great comfort watch.

Many days she tries giving me that look at 11

Genius!

She is such a creature of habit I have to take her down the street at 3:45 pm on weekends. Because that’s the time we meet my daughter at the bus stop during the week. If I don’t she just keeps spinning around in circles in front of me.

Shut up Butt-Head

Mrs Brown’s Boys - I was just scrolling through Brit Box and came across it. I had never even heard of it, and just picked it on a whim. I’ve only seen the first episode, but it had me and my wife rolling with laughter. I hadn’t laughed that hard at a show since the first time I watched IT Crowd.
