Another banger!

Kyle

Also- why did Mike not read his Listener Betrayal? What am I going to all this effort for?

Kyle

Wait you guys, don't mess with me. There's only one way to pronounce Kyle, exactly like it's spelled, two syllables, Ky-le. "For me the baby he." This is actually what my phone said when I tried to start the next sentence with Phoebe. My family pronounces it with two, but in the south, it...

1982 is starting off with some bangers!

I love Juice Newton so much. And that song even more.

Kyle

I have one of those pillows - not sure where it came from. It's a terrible pillow and as such was long ago (before our newfound familiarity with the personal beliefs of the guy) banished to the laundry room, where it sat waiting for people to decide what its fate should be. The trash? Or repurposed...

Kyle

I am invisible to police, apparently. The my pillow mention in the other thread brought up a serious question for this thread: How much does proper pronunciation matter? For example, suppose one person pronounces a word "pillow" like the vitamin pill you take at breakfast, and another pro...

Kyle

Damn. I love Smokey Robinson.

Remember when we were on vacation in Austin and you, me and Roblogic entered that local contest for the condor car?

I think you’re both correct. But I don’t speed, so it’s not a problem.

Hello?

Kyle

Well, they're not all doing that. Many GOP senators are echoing what the democrats are saying. But the house has no spine and even less leadership. They are tearing themselves apart and it's pathetic. But I'm also tired of people talking about how brave Mitch McConnell is. This guy condoned this nut...

Apparently the Pillow Guy says he has definitive proof of election fraud, and he's going to be presenting it on Friday. While he's at it, I hope he can resolve some of the questions raised in this thread. So the country can begin to heal. This is the perfect comment for the Pillow Guy. Very appropr...

I love rabbits so much.

Kyle

I love Hall so much. I also love Oats.

Kyle

I love Alan Tudyk so much too. I've recently finished watching both seasons of the Harley Quinn animated show (so great- one of my favorite shows right now) and realized that Tudyk does so many voices on it. He's becoming the Mark Hammill of voice over work. He's so good.

Kyle

Mike and Aidan were particularly funny this episode, but the line of the night goes to Lisa for reminding us that going to Jupiter will make you stupider. Holy shit. I laughed pretty hard at that. With respect to the discussion of slavery in video games, I want to point out that you're both a little...

I love Mike so much.

I love Kenny Rogers so much.

I love Diana Ross so much.

I think mega powerful wizards are still trying to impress each other. And when you can wield otherworldly powers, you have to be as flashy and grandiose as possible. Thus, glam rockers or drag queens.

Kyle

random thought of the day: instead of looking like clones of Merlin/Gandalf, wizards should look like rock stars, preferably glam rock. Along those lines, I think wizards should look like drag queens. Look at these wizards: https://i.postimg.cc/NFBwSmhH/natasha-st-james-sellma-soul-scarlett-fever-2...

I can’t believe I quit this thread and y’all almost lost it the next day. No worries. I’m back.

Kyle

Two things about car safety. I choose to drive a small car because I feel like they're more easily maneuverable and, with the additional control, are less likely to get into accidents. I realize that this is a minority view and people like big cars built like tanks because they think all that metal ...

Ring Shout - P. Djèlí Clark. What a great read. I almost don't even know how to describe it. An alternate history where the KKK is coopted by extra-dimensional monsters and are fought off by black women, some of whom have extra-spiritual powers. Set in the 1920s. I really don't want to get into mor...

"Someone's going to be in big trouble."

Hilarious that someone on his staff rick rolled him.

Kyle

That's actually an interesting part of it. A not-insignificant revenue source for a number of mutual fund companies involves lending shares of stocks they hold to hedge funds that are shorting stocks. They get paid no matter what. If the price of the stock actually goes up, they get the interest pa...

Not sure it will help Flame or Kyle, but here's my description of short selling: So I get the effects of short selling. I understand the ramifications of it, so my confusion is really just abstract because I get what the end result is. Here's where I get lost coneptually: you sell the shares first ...

Hey. It's not your fault.

I know.

Kyle

But let’s be clear- what the redditors were doing wasn’t for the greater benefit. It was market manipulation to artificially inflate a stock for personal profit- not based on the economic reality of the company. When rich people do this they get criminal charges brought against them by the SEC- and ...

It's a pyramid scheme that is bound to fail. The amateur day traders are going to lose a lot of money. The people hurt by this will be the normal folks who think they are fighting a proper cause. They will lose a ton of money. The hedge funds will be fine. It's Don Quixote tilting at windmills. If y...

I'm out for the rest of January. I'll be back in this thread on Feb. 1.

Whenever I see my kids with an energy drink or coffee I ask why they would put that poison in their bodies. I've been smugly asking the question since the second day after I quit caffeine.

Kyle

Some of you suck at quitting.

Kyle

Why would you put that poison in your body?

Kyle

I've had a calf tear exactly like what you're describing. I was hobbled for a good week. I couldn't use it at all the first two days and then with a limp for the next four or five. It sucks, man. I'm sorry.

Kyle

I'm so much happier doing what I'm doing. I'm a much less negative person now.

Kyle

Wow, that was post-I'm a Pepper David Naughton

Kyle

Okay. So we have confirmation of me, Mike and Phoebe. Who else will join our quitting cause?

Oh Lord in all my time on this earth I had been spared actually SEEING what I was hearing here, as an innocent youth subjected to the Radio. Why, why did you inflict this upon us? I cannot remember the NAME of the person who used to do this, but I remember the FACE of this kid, smirking Butthead st...

This is one of the unexpected blessings of adult children: They know things. I don't have to research or understand so many issues. I know how not to support Nestles, what the roi for a tesla is, which gadgets to buy. All it takes is between one and three calls I was going to make anyway. Listen to...

Be hypnotized for five minutes:

Now we're quitting FOR SURE!

Then we're both quitting.
