At times, the joy that life attacks me with is unbearable and leads to gasping hysterical laughter. I find myself completely out of control and wonder how could life could surprise me again and again and again, so completely. How could a man be a cynic? It is a sin.
@BrettChiefsSzn I'm more anti- than pro- downtown....
But, now that there's an actual plan and a site, and if the city's portion is actually $600M total-
I assume it'll pass a vote
(I'm not in KC so I don't have a vote)
@neontaster I have seen System of a Down *twice*; once in Dallas with Metallica/Kid Rock/Korn/Powerman5000 and again when Clutch opened for them
I also think they're one of the worst bands I've ever seen live
@omgsidewalks I saw the move "Congo" in theaters 'cus Bruce Campbell was in it.
But I hated the movie.
So I went ahead and read the book, "Congo"...
and I hated the book as well.
Que lastima
@Devon_Eriksen_ IMO, the "Boomers" feel that their advice (join the military, attend a trade school, don't attend colleges you can't afford... etc) were scoffed at
So when the younger generation chooses a different path that leads to failure,... c'est la vie
@oldtoons_ That was one of my absolute favorites as a kid, but then, as I grew older, I just got a point where I could no longer stand the sound of Mickey Rooney's voice anymore.
@catsuka Crimes?!
Uhh
..."management cannot be held responsible for any accidents, incidents, loss of property or life or limb."
It's all there in black and white, clear as crystal.
@DiscussingFilm ...and I said, "What about Breakfast at Tiffany's?"
She said, "I think I remember the film and as I recall, I think, we both kinda felt Micket Rooney's portrayal of an Japanese-American felt jarringly racist to modern audiences."
And I said, "Well that's one thing we got."
“Hey FBI, you need to look into the Chiefs next 👀”
FBI: “You think they have been throwing games deliberately?”
“No, the opposite!”
FBI: “The opposite?”
“Yep, and the refs have been favoring them for years!”
FBI: “Ok, so we can look into how many penalties are called against them, and how many are called against their opponents”
“They actually already track that, it’s called Penalty Differential”
FBI: “And how much better are the Chiefs in that stat than the rest of the league?”
“Well they are actually the 2nd worst in the league in the last 7 years…”
FBI: “Oh…. Ok”
“But it’s not about how many penalties, it’s about when the penalties are called”
FBI: “ok, like to extend a drive? Does anyone track those penalties?
“Yes they do.”
FBI: “And how far ahead are the Chiefs in that one?”
“Well they are actually ranked 22nd in the NFL during the Dynasty’s run..”
FBI: “Hmm…”
“But forget that, the penalties have directly led to their Super Bowl wins!”
FBI: “Okay, do they track Penalty differential for those SB teams as well?”
“They sure do!”
FBI: “And how do the Chiefs differential compare to other SB winners?”
“Well from 2017-2024, they were the only SB winner with a Negative penalty differential…”
FBI: “So out of 8 SB winners they were the only team to win it with a negative differential once?
“Actually they had a negative differential for all 3 SB wins..”
FBI: “Hmm…”
“But it’s more about the penalties that happen, but never get called”
FBI: “Ok…. And where do the Chiefs rank in that statistic?”
“No one actually tracks it, because it’s too subjective… but I’ve seen a lot of trolls and haters post clips on X.”
FBI: “Sure… (stifles a laugh) we will get right on that! 😂”
@Getlucky12341 I still consider the, "You're Getting Old" episode, which came out in 2011, as the Series Finale
I'd watched South Park from the beginning at that was my off ramp, and I appreciated it
I don't get mad about anything they've done since, because the show's not for me anymore
@2024dion They all have greater population density within their metropolitan areas than the KC metroplex. (Almost all major league cities do, except maybe Phoenix)
