What's a good streaming service to watch the playoffs? I don't have a TV provider, and am willing to pay to stream the games live.

I’d check YoutubeTV or Hulu Live TV to see which has the local stations you need, but if you have an actual tv with a tuner all you might need is a $10 set of rabbit ears.

I believe ESPN still has at least one game, but other than that yeah if you've got a TV an antenna of some sort will likely work. Well as long as you are in a somewhat ok location for reception.

I have no idea how to check that without actually getting one and trying.

If you have an Instant pot, put a trivet in the bottom, fill it with water, put the honey container in and set it to the Keep Warm setting

Speaking of Cobra Kai, I just discovered a martial art/sport called Kudo, which is basically MMA but with far few rules and they wear space helmets to protect their head from all the “illegal” strikes that are now legal, like 12-to-6 elbows to the back of the head

You ever think of diversifying your business Braksgirl?

I should probably strike while the iron's hot, no?

But no, these are 10000% unofficial and I think Disney will probably shut this down. But maybe not? There are tons of those princess parties where you can pay to have Disney princesses show up at your kid's birthday party so who knows. I think it's a bit double standard-y though, that they make us TAs jump through hoops and stick to very strict rules (we're not allowed to show pics of Disney parks in the rain because they want us to never imply that it rains at Disney) but these people can have Mickey preside over your funeral.

Daniel's always had a pretty goofy looking form and his posture, especially while in his gi(?), is terrible too. There's a shot of him in one of the final few episodes and his shoulders are forward and his back is hunched while you're looking at him straight on. I don't know if he was flexing trying to look bigger or what but he looked ridiculous.

Still gonna watch season 4 tho

I feel dumb for not knowing this before, but did you know if you have a jar of honey that’s crystallized you can microwave it to get it back to its original state?

The honey we get from our bees crystallizes in about a month, so that's what I think of as its normal state. The boiling water method works, although if it's in a wide-mouth jar and you're using it in a recipe like making bread or a smoothie, spooning it out crystallized is easier than dealing with it as a viscous liquid.

Way back in high school I set out to consciously remove any trace of a southern accent and in retrospect I regret it, just for giving in to the stereotypes of others. I have started working y’all back into my vocabulary though, because it’s just such a useful word.

His elbows are always out of place and if i got more into detail I’ll sound like a karate autist but yeah he’s just so awkward looking. You can tell he hasn’t kept up too much because he’s insanely stiff - which I fully respect because he’s 50+

I've been called out as a Yinzer as far away as Paris and Melbourne, and that's with my mom correcting me my whole life. It's inescapable, especially in the long "o", and the vowel shift from long "i" to /ah/ where tiger becomes 'tagger' etc

Sweet double-whammy of not being able to fall asleep and then waking up at 3AM for about an hour and a half last night. Really not an ideal lead-in to the Monday after a holiday break, especially considering I'm sitting in the same chair I've been playing games in for a significant portion of the last 11 days.

The numbers were already posted, but this is my first time on a computer with Excel this year, so here's the final post counts for the TFF 2020 Chat Thread top 30 posters.

The sum total of posts made by we top 30 is exactly 67% of the total number of replies (55,743 of 82,966 total), so this represents two-thirds of chat thread content.



Also it's in Bookman Old Style, so feel free to include this on legal briefs and whatever.

e: Also I made a joke in early October about C-Euro and I being neck and neck, and he edged me out by three posts, so we're nothing if not consistent over time.

Poor Ziggy got real spooked today. Another dog got loose from their collar and tried to attack him. Other owner had their boxer off the sidewalk, standing over it with the dog between her legs, leash looked to be in a good position. We got past them and the boxer must have slipped through their collar . Got a few nips on Ziggy before I could get between them and the owner could literally tackle their dog. No blood drawn, no problem. Felt bad for the woman because it looked like they were doing everything right and the collar was just a bit too loose.

And yeah, today has not been fun. Barely slept last night for unknown reasons, and this week I'm doing a pretty serious elimination diet because my girlfriend has to. Basically just meat and vegetables for the next week. And no booze.

It's amazing what they can do with computers these days.

Glad I'm not the only one who didn't sleep great. Took me a lot longer to fall asleep than normal, then woke up twice from nightmares. My wife had to wake me up once because I was trying to scream in my dream and to her it sounded like I was struggling to breathe or something.

Another goal for this year, not be in the top 10 posters, which I realize this isn't helping. I should probably be more productive with my time.

I can say I slept great last night.

This was likely because I slept like crap Saturday night due to a combination of a late nap, and my roommate being out of town so I'm watching the dog and she has 2 modes of sleeping. 1.) Like a rock (Last night), 2.) Jumping off the bed, then back on and walking all over me every 45 minutes to 1.5 hours (saturday)

I’ve accidentally elbowed my SO in the face when she’s woken me from a bad dream :( She’s said that I’ve woken up screaming on several occasions so it sounds like things are going great in my brain!
