Having been a server, the only thing worse than getting a ****ty tip, is having some !@#$ tell you why you got the ****ty tip ?

After saying his goodbyes, he climbed into his vehicle packed with all his earthly possessions, and headed west on a quest to seek out his true calling in life.

NSFW If you are a true Syracuse hoops fan, this “rant” by Jim Boeheim supporting G-Mac makes the hair stand up on the back of your neck. I watch it before almost every Cuse game. Gets me jacked up.

Very sad, but very motivational as well, IMO.

While doing a stint with Greenpeace in 2004, I was helping to build a bridge with some poor villagers in Uganda. When we got back to the village to have a meal with the chief in his mud hut, I noticed that all the kids were running around in Buffalo Bills 1993 Super Bowl champions t-shirts. Who knew? I started to recite the shout song, but they all looked at me like I was crazy. Bills fans everywhere....

Six weeks later, on a dreary day, Bob stood alone at the foot of his dead teacher’s grave reflecting on his life choices.

How much do you tip your lady-boy prostitutes ??

The server would have to be blatantly rude to me to get no tip (which thankfully has never happened). For bad service, I will always leave a tip and then just never return to the restaurant.

What a great first show! My first and only was 1993 at Rich Stadium. I think I was 14 years old. My brother allowed me to tag along with he and his friends. That was an eye opening experience for me. ?

Yes. That was the former Red Wings Stadium. DSO plays a lot of smaller venues. They have a faithful following, but they aren’t the type of band that’s going to sell out an arena as the main act. I most recently saw them at a place very similar to Water Street Music Hall. Maybe 150 people. I don’t know the answer to your second question.

I’ve been seeing this on Twitter as well. So maybe the hamstring thing has been a bit overblown?

I wonder if he’ll pass his physical with the hammy he’s been dealing with this summer? Anyone know how he has looked this offseason? Has he been limited by the hammy?

Unfortunately, his teacher had long suffered from debilitating Bovinaphobia, so she jumped out of the window screaming and landed on a statue of Billy Graham holding a fishing pole.

Agree with just about everything you say here, but there is a lot of information missing from this article in order to form a solid opinion.

Being raised by good, god fearing Christians, Bob felt compelled to defend the bullied and proceeded to scissor kick Kelvin Benjamin in the forehead.

He was a mess. Truly one of the most emotionally disturbed children I have ever met in my 14 years practicing in schools. Strangely, he had a younger brother (1 year younger I believe) who was incredible well-adjusted. We used to call on him to help deescalate his brother sometimes. Resiliency is truly an amazing thing. I was called out to the classroom over the intercom (Mr. H bring the blue folder to room 26), which meant there was a crisis. When I arrived the class was evacuated and the teacher was holding students and crying. When I walked in the classroom was absolutely trashed. He had a 3-4 inch folding pocket knife, and was seated facing the wall sobbing with the knife blade held against his wrist. I had good rapport with him, and eventually got him to stand up and take the knife away from his wrist. I got him to smile a couple times and laugh, and I thought I could get the knife and get him out of the classroom. Without any sign of distress, he lunged at me and stuck the blade about 3/4” into my right shoulder just underneath my collar bone. Fight or flight kicked in, and I put him in a restraint and dropped to the floor screaming for help. I had him in the restraint, with the knife still in my shoulder, for about 5 minutes before one of the assistant principals and a contracted mental health practitioner came in to help. I was so jacked up I forgot the knife was in my shoulder until the teacher pointed it out when I walked outside the classroom. Freaky stuff....

Great set. My Brother Esau is one of my fav Dead tunes.

No idea. This was back in my first job in Charlotte. About 98% free/reduced lunch population. Gangs recruiting drug runners on the playground after school. I would suspect either dead or in jail (sadly). The prognosis for him was not good. Father in jail. Stepfather a slug and suspected drunk/abuser. Mom was more than likely cognitively challenged at best. At least I haven’t seen him on the news!

Good good, man! How do you listen to this stuff? To each his own, I guess.

I think these trends come and go, man.

If you didn’t notice, pretty much all of the posts following @BuffaloBill‘s were satirical in nature (e.g., holding a 9V battery to his tongue all day, death by 1000 cuts with toenail clippers). I believe this is what @Boyst62 was referring to. Nothing funny about what happened to the kid, obviously.

? My wife asked me if I wanted to go see Guster last week. Said tickets were only $40. I told her even if tickets were free, I’d rather have testicle surgery with no anesthesia. She didn’t think that was funny...

I would add Bob Dylan, Elvis, Michael Jackson, and Frank Sinatra to that list...just to name a few. One might even argue that Elvis’ influence helped to spurn the British rock and roll revolution.
