My wife yelled from upstairs and asked: "Do you ever get a shooting pain across your body, like someone's got a voodoo doll of you and they're stabbing it?"
I replied: "No."
She responded: "How about now?"
Used @Xfinity since 2013. Always reasonably priced. But suddenly, my "loyalty" discount got cut in 1/2 with no warning/reason, other 1/2 falling off next month, so my service is doubling while they offer 5 yr lock. @XfinitySupport offered very little. Who should I switch to?

Got a letter from the HOA yesterday
Actual letter
In an envelope
With a stamp
In 2026
The letter said my trash can was visible from the street for too long on collection day
The fine is $50
I checked my Ring camera
The truck came at 7:03am
I brought the can in at 7:14am
11 minutes
$50
That's $4.55 per minute of trash can visibility
My therapist charges $250 an hour
That's $4.17 per minute
My trash can sitting in a driveway is now more expensive per minute than therapy
I looked at the letter again
It was signed by the HOA president
Her name is Karen
Of course it is
I know this woman
She lives four houses down
She still has Christmas lights up
It's March
I know because I drive past them twice a day
And because that's what I do
I checked the HOA bylaws
All 47 pages
Section 4.2 says all exterior fixtures and lighting must be seasonal and removed within 30 days of the applicable holiday
Her lights have been up for 97 days
I went to the HOA meeting
Tuesday night
7pm
In a church basement
Folding chairs
Fruit platter that nobody touched
Seven people showed up
Four of them were on the board
The other three were there to complain
I was there to read
My wife came with me
She didn't want to
But she said "if I don't come you'll end up on the news"
I brought my legal pad
Karen called the meeting to order
She talked about community standards
She talked about property values
She talked about the importance of curb appeal
From a woman whose Christmas lights are still blinking in March
I raised my hand
She said "we'll take questions at the end"
I said "it's not a question. It's a point of order."
She looked at me
I opened my legal pad
I said "Section 4.2 requires seasonal decorations to be removed within 30 days. Your Christmas lights have been up for 97 days. You fined me $50 for 11 minutes of trash can visibility on collection day while you've been in violation for over three months."
The room was quiet
One of the other three complainers said "he's right"
The board members looked at each other
Karen said "that's a separate issue"
I said "it's the same bylaws"
She said "we'll review it"
I said "I already did. Page 12. Happy to share my highlights."
My wife looked at the ceiling
Some things never change
Karen said "I think we should move on"
I said "agreed. I'll move on when the Christmas lights do."
Nobody laughed
I wasn't joking
I paid the $50
Because it's $50 and I'm not going to die on that hill
But if the rules apply to me they apply to everyone
So I filed a formal complaint about the lights
With photos
Timestamped
Funny how surveillance works both ways
The fine for seasonal decoration violations is $75 per occurrence
She's been in violation for 67 days past the 30-day grace period
I'll let her do the math
Or I'll do it for her
Because that's what I do
Make common sense common again
Plz fix. Thx.

Here are just a couple of notable programs that have UNQUESTIONABLY easier schedules than Notre Dame next year:
- Penn State
- Texas Tech
- Miami
- Indiana
Where is the outrage over these schedules??
Or is it that everyone just has an irrational hatred of Notre Dame because we’re the only program that can pull off independence?
@Matt_Lounsberry I'm not saying this bc we lost, but did you see the Denver game??? That wasn't football. That was a mess. Higher propensity for injury, just ugly football. Wouldn't you rather talent be showcased over elements?
The SEC has not increased its number of ranked teams from the preseason AP Poll to the final AP Poll for 7 straight years now.
2019: 6 to 5
2020: 7 to 4
2021: 5 to 5
2022: 6 to 6
2023: 6 to 6
2024: 9 to 7
2025: 10 to 7
Maybe they should stop ranking more than 6 SEC teams in the preseason.
I’ve watched this video countless times and I’ve come to one conclusion…
If you think this is a catch by Cooks you either don’t know ball or you’re a Bills fan. There’s no other explanation.
Seeing PLENTY of officiating discourse on the TL so here's my two cents.
-1st play. Beginning of the drive that ended in the McMillian INT which I believe was ruled 100% correctly. Pretty clear hold on DJ Jones that *possibly* could've been ruled in the end zone as a safety ending the game.
-2nd play. First DPI on game winning drive. Very clear roughing the passer on Bosa which would've been a -2 yard difference if the DPI wasn't called.
-3rd play. Ending the game with yellow is never fun but very clear DPI with White being early and pulling Mims' left arm down before the ball arrives.
Refs didn't hand this win to Denver by any stretch of imagination.
