I took his word for it when he said it was to bury his face in 50 year old coochie but I am skeptical now

Yep. Leaf fans would have made Chiarelli moves galore by now just because they didn't instantly win. Meanwhile, Boston has been an elite contender for a decade. Won once during that time. Tampa and Boston missed the playoffs during their current dominant eras. Tampa got swept - by Columbus, fittingly enough. People talked about trading Ovi for years before he won. St. Loius was good for years before they won.

That's sports though, fans'll cry nonstop until they win. Dubas' glasses and Willy's hair trigger Leaf fans.

Way I look at it, some fans think they have no chance, but Joe Thornton disagrees.

Yeah I mean their core is 23 and JT, Brodie and Muzzin are 30...and they have a 41 year old HoF who wants to win. Freddy is in a contract year.

The boys are becoming men and the older guys know their time is now.

When they were Teens and 20 years old it didn't come easy for them...they had to face the 1st place team in the league, 3rd place team, and the 4th place team in the entire league for their 1st 3 shots. They were set up for failure and did not take the underdog story. They (frank)ed up against CBJ, for me that was the first failure I saw the first 3 matchups were learning experiences against teams that were way better than them.

Finally saw National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation for the first time.

Why the frank do people worship this movie?

It's about as funny as a papercut on my foreskin.

- Atomic Wedgie

I dunno.

As an example, I still find both Airplane! movies hysterically funny while others I have spoken to who only watched it recently just don't "get it". I think you have to be the right age and in the right frame of mind to have art indelibly "affect" you. (see also, music).

My grandmother (RIP) used to always talk about how hilarious the Carry On films were. Does not compute.

I find many of my younger friends (and wife) feel that way about Monty Python

Back in the summer (so not breaking COVID rules), we popped on Airplane when another family was over.

The kids found parts mildly amusing.

The parents were pissing ourselves laughing.

My older daughter is into guitar, so Spinal Tap is going to happen in December.

I love the movie and wouldn't say its hilarious, but its just more of a comfort watching thing, since I saw it every year since it was released and I was a kid. Also having seen the 2 previous movies with the Griswalds helped for me.

I wouldnt expect an adult watching it for the first time today to love it. My wife and I have exchanged watching movies we loved as kids (and still do today), but we both come away saying Meh.

I can watch the crocodile Dundee movies hundreds of times more...and she just roles her eyes that I'm watching it again

You wake up in the morning, get something for the pot
Wonder why the sun makes the rocks feel hot
Draw on the walls, eat, get laid
Back in the good old days
Then some damn fool invents the wheel
Listen to the whitewalls squeal
You spend all day looking for a parking spot
Nothing for the heart, nothing for the pot

Reminds me of the time I saw a dude in Montreal hold up a live pigeon and yell "look what we're eating for dinner tonight" before stuffing it in his friend's backpack

Remember when one of your buddies would find a stash of magazines in the trash, and you and your buddies hid it in the ravine, triple-protected with Loblaws bags, and you got to read them for about a month before another group of kids stole them from you?

I pity the kids today who just fire up their phones.

- Atomic Wedgie


I do remember when magazines were pretty the only source of pron. Hell, I remember looking at the bra and underwear section of department store catalogues.

Back in CanadaCup's day, he only had black and white pics of victorian women in bloomers.

Starting to realize why you are collecting EI
- Santo_44

Because I work more in 9 months than most do in a year.

You have a problem with people who collect EI? I pay into it, I can collect it.

Weak-ass run at me. As per usual.

My God ur dumb.
