New is eventually going to have to confront the reality that there is a direct correlation between bad things happening to him and him straying further and further away from the movies.

If he just gets back to the movies, his life will immediately get better. And that’s science.

MADBARZ

No, it’s Donovan McNabb

MADBARZ

Longest push time I've ever seen.

MADBARZ

Not feeling great about needing 20 from Dak tonight... That drive was horrid.

MADBARZ

Ugh, I'm so glad I'm not the only one. I've had so many techs come out just to tell me they can't or won't check certain things that I know is the fucking problem. They give you a new modem and are out the door. Lo and behold, the tech that comes after an FCC complaint finds that the external lines are damaged or something on the node blew up.

My complex switched to Aerwave which uses fiber. Half the cost, 1 GB up and down, only one issue since it was implemented and it was fixed immediately. It's literally a selling point for staying in this stupid apartment.

MADBARZ

The only issue to me would be if the seller didn't acknowledge the current market price. This is really fine.

MADBARZ

20 points from Dak tonight is all I need. Going to be a coin flip with this guy.

MADBARZ

I prefer crab salts, but horse gelatin does work wonders

MADBARZ

Niche market, not many people out there looking for them. If you were looking at them as an investment, probably not something that will blow up in value. But imo it’s a very cool part of Pokemon history and a cool piece of a collection!

MADBARZ

Yes, both from Nurikabe

MADBARZ

10/10 speech. The vibes are fucking immaculate.

MADBARZ

Need 20 from Dak tomorrow. I’ll be clenching my entire 9-5 away.

MADBARZ

Very reminiscent of his Michigan days. He doesn’t need to be a top 10 QB in the league, he just needs to make key plays and get dubs. I’m not convinced he’s our ticket to the playoffs just yet, but he’s increasingly proving the doubters (it’s me, I’m doubters) wrong.

MADBARZ

You should be able to demand a pro-rated refund based on how long you went without service, but there is a better path:

File an FCC complaint. It's the best way to get a timely response and when they do respond by calling you, if you mention that you paid for multiple days without internet, they'll probably give you a free month.

Whenever I had issues with Cox (all the time), I always opened a service ticket through normal channels, but filed an FCC complaint at the same time to get the ball rolling. It always goes better and gets my problem solved faster. The few times I said, "No no, let's just see what the service tech does" and waited to get a complaint in, it'd just drag my issue for weeks.

MADBARZ

I guess Bucky is done for the day. Can't complain much and it'd be the smart move, but bittersweet.

MADBARZ

Curious as to how the delivery driver knew that there were Pokemon cards inside. Unless of course they were just opening up whatever and seeing what they could find.

People said Kyler would be good for JJ and I'm not seeing it. Without that TD 2 weeks ago, JJ would have been pretty mid on the WR rankings.

MADBARZ

"FEED DENZEL... NO, NOT LIKE THAT!"

MADBARZ

It's all subjective to be honest. Some people go by general color, others set, others by border type, card type, the list goes on. And then people go with combinations of those.

For what it's worth, I think your current set ups in the pics make sense and look good. Sit with it and you can always change it over time when you start to recognize which parts of your binder feel appealing or unappealing to you.

MADBARZ

Love that episode. I have both a Scyther EX and an Electabuzz EX from Ruby and Sapphire and want to frame them with a little bottle of ketchup between them.

MADBARZ

In the strict manner of speaking "A Kyogre that came out in the same set or era meant to make it a pair", no.

But the Kyogre from Delta Reign is definitely its unofficial match.

MADBARZ

Lazy, maybe. But it actually goes hard.

MADBARZ

This was promotion for a coming of age movie called Bart Got A Room. I don’t remember it being a phenomenal movie, but would recommend to check out.

MADBARZ

No, to 77 million people who voted for this, it’s just more “fake news”.
