That's true, but I think it's already starting to change. It may not happen for another 25 years, but when Brittany is President, Dylan and Taylor, stars of the MLS, will be all over the Wheaties boxes.

that's what they said 25 years ago.

Has he not changed his shoes since Monday?

Is that a derivative of "assclown", as in "everything was OK until that no-talent assclown starting making hit records"?

It is. Invented by the Wonk Monster.

Not to be a name-brand-dropper, but have you tried the Hanes premium t-shirts? I admit that I knew they were Hanes because it said "Hanes" on the bag, but I didn't buy them to impress anyone. See, there's no tag. But I suppose you don't wear t-shirts, either.

No, I wear t-shirts. You have to do that or you'll ruin shirts.

Yet socks perform no such similar function with respect to shoes?

And dare I even start in with the underwear? Oh, that's right, they have bidets at your firm.

Sebby just drops trou around his ankles when he takes a whiz. It's highly sanitary.

..seeing as, according the Spartan, urine is sterile and all.

Bidet? That's some firm you work at there.

That reminds me. Hey, Canadians! Are bidets common north of the border? I was watching the "Kenny vs. Spenny" where the competition was "who can stay awake longest" (spoiler: Kenny, 82 hours), and Kenny was, at one completely psychotic point, washing his face in a bidet. (I recognized it because I am a seasoned world traveller.) Since Kenny doesn't strike me as being an especially fastidious person, I was led to believe Canadians are more ass-meticulous than Americans and use bidets in their homes, and not just at luxury French and Japanese hotels like the Americans. True? Or only the Québécois?

etffs.

I'll talk about any sport:

Soccer is hokey when decided by PKs
NFL is mildly hokey because both teams don't get a shot.
College is hokey because they start at the 25 and then have to go for two, but only after three overtimes.
Hockey now changes teh rules too.
Sebby's home run contest is even more cheesy.

Ah. You just want to bitch. If that's the case, there's nothing I can say to get you to stop.

I just don't see the need to resolve the few ties that exist through artificial systems in the regular season.

I think a tie every once in awhile is no big deal. But there's a reason why they say a tie game is like kissing your sister.

If you think the coinflip is essentially irrelevant, why do the players on the team celebrate like they've scored a touchdown when it comes up their call?

Ummm, because they're stupid?

Of course it seems like a huge advantage to get the ball first. But over the years, it has proven to not be such a huge advantage. If it was a huge advantage, it would have been changed by now.

My sister's cruddy apartment in Montreal had a bidet. I believe they are fairly common in Quebec, as you might imagine.

I remember a childhood friend's house had a bidet, but that's the only one I remember outside of Quebec. I think it may be a more common thing in a Canadian home than an American, but not by a huge margin.

Kenny v. Spenny takes place in Toronto, no? I have never watched it. But I have realized that BBC America carries Trailer Park Boys. that is one heck of a show (in the right context).

It all depends on the aim, man, it all depends on the aim.

I've been all over Ontario from Windsor to East of Toronto and North to the bay. I've never seen a bidet*.

SS seems like an ass-fixated guy. Manitoba?

*More tomatos than anywhere else though.

that's what we keep on trying to tell the PatentPeanut. A lot of mopping until kids get that down pat.
