    OT: TMB TV/Streaming Shows Club: Thread for streaming/TV show discussion…

    Just started watching the new season on Mayor of Kingstown. Enjoying it so far, but man did they blow the filming location. I haven't spent much time in Michigan but the location is obviously the Pittsburgh area. So distinctive it's distracting (kind of like the opposite of when they shot the...

    Self-indulgent rant: My passive-aggressive friends are coming out of the woodwork with bogus sympathy texts.

    This thread made me realize I've kinda been a jerk to my buddy that's a Miami Dolphins fan and that I have a serious issue with dudes that wear joggers to work.

    Things to ponder following 2OT loss to Oregon

    I never understood the pre-season media hype about this year's squad. Don't see many difference makers and the transfers were meh. 2024 was the year and they just didn't get it done, which of course is Franklin's legacy in more ways than one.

    I need to vent

    As my vet once told me - outdoor cats live exciting but short lives. Been there myself. Years ago when I was house sitting my sister's cat it escaped as I was dragging my hockey gear out of the door. I frantically searched but it was dark and I was late for the game, so I figured he'd be...

    RIP Loretta Swit, aka “Hot Lips” Houlihan

    Somehow my 56 year old brain remembers her as Lorettta Swift and not hot. Wrong on both apparently, but for sure well loved. RIP hot lips.

    Insane coincidence stories...

    I've had a few but one I'll never forget is walking home from class one warm afternoon on Pugh street (I wasn't coming from the Skeller) for some reason as I was about to walk beneath some power lines I looked up and saw a bird on the wires directly above and immediately had the thought it was...

    Someone today told me that Penn State is a “great school”.

    Oh... and the Penn thing was real. I got that all the time living in Seattle from folks that grew-up on the west coast. I eventually just stopped correcting people. I don't feel so bad now knowing that a certain politician who's VERY proud of his Wharton degree actually transferred into the...

    Someone today told me that Penn State is a “great school”.

    Back in the mid-80s when I was graduating HS, PSU main campus acceptance rates were very selective. I recall being at the level of UC Berkeley. No idea what it's like now (spent most of my adult life in WA state) but back then it was a pretty big deal to get into main if you weren't a legacy.

    Who are "WE"?

    Joe was too old to understand the issues and the risk to the school and program. That's why we shouldn't have an 80 year old running the program. Hell, we shouldn't have had a 70 year old running the program. In the end, JoePa did as much bad as good to the program.
