@DagoSupremacy 20 years ago, I worked at a place that had white noise machines / radios to make the whole experience a little less preposterous. I think of that place often.

@elsathora @ValleeMama I’m married to a Swede. Her mother’s “Swedish breakfast” consists of fish paste squeezed out of a toothpaste tube onto some hardbread or toast, and coffee. Truly terrifying.

This is absolutely true, and kind of incredible.

A couple of Germans on a road trip have done more to inspire patriotism ahead of America’s 250th anniversary than the entirety of the U.S. government.

Everyone always talking about “talent density” in Silicon Valley when we really should be talking about how 80% of pretzels in America come from a small region of Pennsylvania

@bernardooooV3 You realize it’s been here before, right? It was widely considered one of the best cups there had ever been, and it sure as hell can’t be any worse than a few fairly recent ones. It’ll be fine, assuming the outrageous predatory prices don’t wreck things.

Europeans enjoying the World Cup: “Futbol is the greatest sport in the world.”

Americans enjoying the World Cup: “Wonder what fast food the German guy eats next.”

@Its_Coach_Steve And Auburn, among others, over Doak-Campbell. And Neyland has to be on there somewhere.

@Its_Coach_Steve Oh, and Aloha Stadium no longer exists. Not a bad list. Including the Sun Bowl and Mighty Michie is solid work. Cotton and Rose Bowls are aging ruins, but my kind of ruins. I’d probably include Husky and Sanford (Uga) in place of Lane and Bryant Denny.

@De5ynchroni5ed @cream_my_cheese How has that thing not been replaced yet? Isn’t that where The Who stampede took place?

[Maine Road @hamptonlax]

@cream_my_cheese And you can walk to Kentucky.

@Austin5Fe @RichKaseSport Same, a three hour “sailgate” before the LSU game a while back. Outstanding venue.

we live in age of great moral panics about things that don’t matter and zero moral outrage over some of the most egregious societal sins we’ve ever seen

@PonyHype @DonHarris4 LaSalle’s gym was (and prepaid still is) on the third floor.

[Maine Road @hamptonlax]

@DonHarris4 Where was the Felt Forum? That’s about the only place Americans color watch the World Cup in the 70’s.
