  1. This.. Especially when it's outside and 95F and the bride insists on an hour ceremony In a church without air conditioning A wedding I went to in North Carolina this summer expressly said on the invitation that people could wear whatever they wanted (at a business/church casual-level) and still most of the suckers showed up completely dressed up to the nines and sweating their bits off in an un-air conditioned church. Madness. Worst one I've been to was a buddy of mine from grad school. He got married in Iowa City, and a bunch of people from school drove there from Chicago. We get there and the ceremony is over (they had a tiny thing on campus with just close family) and the reception was in this former church (basically the entire altar/pews were cleared out so it was a big open room). No air conditioning. It was about 30 minutes of dinner, a few speeches, and then it was over. We all look at each other like "we drove all this way for THAT?", and then proceeded straight into the City to hit as many bars as possible

  3. Steelers had two opportunities to ice this game in the 4th and missed both FG's. Now it's tied and heading to OT
  4. I scheduled a vacation to visit my parents in Florida from 10/10-10/12. Bad timing if/when the Cubs advance to the LDS
  5. you're gettin' hosed brah I never pay more than $5/plate
  6. Guess the donation bar worked :good:
  7. We had a spring wedding, and I almost completely missed my own rehearsal dinner because I was stuck in playoff traffic for the Bulls
  8. Red hearts are how many likes you've given out. White hearts are how many you've received. You're always 5 minutes late :D
  9. The red heart in the body of the post says that you have not yet liked that post, but still have the option to do so. The white heart in the body of the post says that you have liked that post, but can click it again to "unlike" it The red heart by your username shows how many posts you have liked The white heart by your username shows how many of your posts others have liked. So we can see who is stingy and who is slutty with their "likes" :D
  10. what's the difference between the red heart and the white heart?
  11. I use Board index. I don't like active topics because I kind of have a pattern about which forums I visit first each time.
  12. What's a typical goal they put out there? https://www.thetfp.com/donate/goals No idea what kind of traffic they get or what their costs are
  13. Sports fans who attend live games suck in general. If you go to a football game and stand up to cheer when the team gets a first down, some fuddy duddy behind you complains that they can't see and can you please stay seated. They need to make playoff tickets $5 and let the first 35000 drunks in the gate.
  14. I've seen some sites that just post a sticky with a monthly donation goal and keep it updated as people donate. Seems to work well in motivating people to chip in
  15. Nice little series for Austin Jackson. Nice pickup
  16. He's been bad, no doubt. He flourished under O'Brien, but has floundered under Franklin
  17. FSN crawl says Rose "out indefinitely" so......crap
  18. I would like them to play the Marlins in the playoff. Was that an option?
  19. Sadly, he'll be a top 10 pick not if he continues to play terribly. he's slipping down draft boards right now, and quickly. a weird comment to make after his best game of the year (60% passing, nearly 300 yards, 3 TD, 0 INT)
  20. My favorite stat line of the year: 3.10 ERA, 3.48 FIP, 4.08 xFIP, 3.3 fWAR, 197 IP, 7.48 K/9............and a 5-17 record. Shelby Miller, ladies and gentlemen
  21. Bryant has multi-hit games in something like 7 of his last 10 games
  22. Keep waiting for Arrieta to have a mediocre start, but he just won't
  23. lol, you lost to [expletive] temple and have the worst basketball team in the conference The basketball team is a joke and deserves all the derision you want to throw at it. The Templenloss was embarrassing, but at least the school spends money and tries to get good coaches rather than throw $300k at a nobody and then saying "oh shucks, we stink, but thanks for the $22 million"
  24. Sadly, he'll be a top 10 pick
  25. How does Andrew Luck have only 9 pass attempts through 2 1/2 quarters?
