The problem with burning sports memorabilia is you have to buy it first, and that poo poo is expensive. So yes. Great schadenfreude.

Yeah that was the point of my original post; you bought that poo poo dumbass and now you're just burning your own money.

But also right-winger racist tears are good too.

(Best part is, I bet he buys back the same memorabilia in a year)

Remember that episode of Arrested Development when little Buster's bird got out by perching in the maid's hair and died? So he got mad and threw a vacuum at the bus, since he thought they were her favorite toy and car? That's what these people are. They're people who are mad at somebody for basically no reason, and are destroying things they think the other people think are important because they can't accept that something else might be wrong.

Couldn't see anything on the latest Trump shenanigans with senior officials including his own family using private e-mails for official business. Granted it's not the same as Hilary using her own server for years, and there's a chance that they'll prove all e-mails were correctly forwarded to the government accounts...

Just can't wait for Trump's bluster/hypocrisy/distraction techniques on this one. :munch:

I just get pissed whenever my school gets shut down for FOOBAW. Usually it's Saturdays, but I'm an engineering student, sometimes I got poo poo to do in the lab on weekends. And occasionally there'll be Thursday games, where because my school is completely up its own rear end, campus shuts down for an evening game at 12:30 in the afternoon.

And by shut down, this isn't just "gotta park far away from the stadium cause those garages are reserved"; no, they lock and rope off the doors to all the buildings.

Maybe this is a dumb question by why would a dog need a tattoo to show he's neutered... wouldn't the lack of testicles be the giveaway?

It's rare, but sometimes a dog can have one or both testicles undescended. That is to say, it would look neutered, but wouldn't be. Ultimately, it's an easy way to tell people who have no medical history about this animal that 100% "yes this animal is fixed" similar to notching feral cats' ear tips.

xergm posted:

I'll be honest, I actually learned something. My dog has just a little blue dot on her belly, and I was wondering why it was there and who put it there just the other day.

Apparently they don't always do a full tattoo and sometimes just put some ink in the incision.

Transmogrifier posted:

That's probably why my cat has a little green mark on her belly. Huh.

In my experience, usually whoever does the surgery just rubs/injects tattoo ink into an incision rather than going to the effort of a full tattoo. That said, I've also seen numbers or other ID markings to show an animal's been fixed. Maybe they're practicing for a tattoo license on the side :v: .

Related, racing greyhounds sometimes have their unique ID number tattooed in their ear and you can look up their racing histories online. Of course, since I work in a vet and only see retired greyhounds, their records aren't very good :D .

Pretty sure that's just the way he's holding it. It looks like he was trying to counter any recoil to stay on target and ended up pointing it just a hair too far down.

I'm no expert though.

They do it for regular dogs here as well. Not sure if it's optional but my parents' got a number on her ear (as well as an RFID chip) that can be used to look up the owner information and what not. This unfortunately turned out to be very helpful when she ran off on a walk and eventually a vet was able to find the phone number to call them.

In the first one, the ball is bouncing and he's kind of trying to protect himself/catch a bouncing ball.

In the second one, it looks like the catcher signaled for a pitch way off the plate (you could intentionally not pitch to a dangerous hitter) but the pitcher didn't get the memo.

It's also been known to happen that a pitcher or team will be upset with an umpire and make that look like a miscommunication. When the actual intent is to bean the umpire.
