My 11 year old son thought he could beat me in Nintendo Ice Hockey. Here is the result tonight. Old man victory.
Soviets 16 Sweden 3
2 of his goals came from my Large guy hitting someone into the net.
This is the wildest World Cup story yet. If someone in Toronto sells a ticket above face value they get fined $25,000 yet the city of Toronto bought 3,500 World Cup tickets early and then sold them to taxpayers at a markup as a “revenue generation strategy.” What the hell man.
Scenes that shockingly predicted actors' future roles. 🤯
David Corenswet was told “You look like Superman” in The Politician (2019) years before being cast as Superman.
Jenna Ortega said “I’d be Wednesday” in Stuck in the Middle (2016) before starring in Wednesday (2022).
Charlie Day dressed as Luigi in It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia (2005) before voicing him in The Super Mario Bros. Movie (2023).
Zoe Saldaña gave the Vulcan salute in The Terminal (2004) before playing Uhura in Star Trek (2009).
And in Platoon (1986), a soldier joked that Willem Dafoe’s character thought “he's Jesus f***ing Christ.” — Ironically Dafoe played Jesus in a controversial take that is neither historical nor canonical ‘in The Last Temptation of Christ (1988).’
Que partida memorável. O lindo gol de Sócrates, Hegel e Kant correndo para refutar, Confúcio impassível na arbitragem, o júbilo final dos clássicos e pré-socráticos.
Was watching hockey last night and noticed the Hurricanes have this retro “collegiate” logo patch on their jerseys. Turns out it was designed + added in 2025 to give the team an appearance of tradition and legacy. Fascinating example of the postmodern decline of culture at large
Dennis Reynolds in It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia somehow gets funnier the more deeply horrifying the character becomes. Glenn Howerton playing Dennis is an all-time comedic performance
As I mentioned on #MvsW today, Claude Lemieux was my favorite player growing up.
First authentic jersey I ever owned. First nameplate I ever wore. Someone who personified the nefarious side of the game while being one of the greatest playoff performers I've ever witnessed. 💔
