[Corey Walker 🇺🇸 @CoreyWriting]

I have to admit that it's great seeing a city the size of NYC collectively absorb and enjoy a singular experience simultaneously. Social media and phones have robbed our generation of communal experiences, and its return is a reason sports is valuable for the social fabric.

The Pope should release an encyclical about the search function in Outlook.

genuinely hate that I can no longer use "—" in anything I write anymore

This game is so rigged that the Hockey Gods are intervening to tie things up for Buffalo

[Shannon O'Sullivan @ShannonOSully]

The next Bachelorette season should be filmed in Buffalo with the blade gang as contestants.

[Bobby Wagner @bwags]

sports in the streaming era are so cool. is it easier to find? no. is the broadcast weirdly dark and gray? yes. is the connection more reliable? definitely not. it must be cheaper then? also no

Could a Buffalo-area chemist get on top of creating the new paint color, Marty Biron’s Iris ™️? I’d like an accent wall in my bedroom that pierces my soul. #GoSabres 🦬 ⚔️

Have the lambs stopped screaming, Clarice?

[Super 70s Sports @Super70sSports]

I miss the days when voting meant you had to go behind a curtain like you were in the dirty section of your local video store and then you just started pulling knobs and cranking levers like you were the fucking Wizard of Oz. It was phenomenal.

Imagine talking to 2001 you and being like yeah afroman actually won a pretty big first amendment case

@trez726 An absolute banger! I co-sign your addendum of sorts.

[Shannon O'Sullivan @ShannonOSully]

I think commercial jingles from the millennial childhood golden era (‘80s-‘90s) should now be an option at karaoke. It guarantees shorter wait times for the mic; increased participation; and the communal nostalgic glow that builds community and likely increases bartender tips.

[Restricted Daily @RestrictedDaily]

Man, remember that old Big Red gum commercial… “Kiss a little longer”? That jingle ran for years in the 70s and 80s and somehow every kid in America had it stuck in their head. The second you hear it again, it’s like you’re back in the living room watching TV as a kid. Anyone else remember that one?

[Shannon O'Sullivan @ShannonOSully]

I yell “Beebe” (named after the Bills legend, Don Beebe), no less than 5 times daily.

[Sara Mary ⭐❤️ @saniyafatma1278]

When choosing a name for your orange boy cat, do it VERY WISELY because you will be yelling it at least one hundred times a day

[Ziggy_Sobotka @Ziggys_Duck]

The Wire ended 18 yrs ago today. It’s been taught in Ivy League schools, law schools & film schools. David Simon was interviewed by a sitting president about its lasting impact. Cited in a State Supreme Court ruling. Often hailed by critics as the best ever. Never won an Emmy.

[Shannon O'Sullivan @ShannonOSully]

I enjoy the quadrennial reminder of what a natural fit I would be for curling, since it involves two of my most prized skills: yelling and mopping. #WinterOlympics

You can find me (and I imagine Sean McDermott) staring off into the middle distance while listening to “Iris” on repeat for at least the next fortnight or two.

[Bradley Gelber @BradleyGelber]

If you’re gonna get fired, “I’m standing up for Buffalo dammit,” is a pretty legendary way to go out.
