OT: 112th Obsequious Banter Thread: Nearing the Halfway Point of the Year

I thought it was glass rock, concrete, asphalt?


Don’t sell yourself short. Safety is everyone’s job.

The under structure is being filled with bags of the recycled glass/rock. I am guessing they will top fill with something along asphalt lines. They could also then be having prefab concrete being made, and then maybe top that with asphalt. This is only temporary, and will eventually be rebuilt with beams and concrete.

Great Fathers Day, we do a tradition with my dad where we get a couple dozen crabs and Popeyes Fried Chicken and basically drink and eat crabs all day. Solid Rager.

Ah yeah true the concrete could already be casted and getting ready

Don't ever be born into a Chinese family. The logic makes no sense sometimes. I want to pull a Dr. Cox sometimes and smash my head into a table thingy.

Just finished Episode 6 on my first go through. That's going to take a minute to get past.

When it comes down to public speeches... the worst ones I've ever seen are the ones that didn't have anything rehearsed whether it was in their head or on paper.

Best man speech in which he congratulated the bride and groom 1000 times in 6 minutes. AWFUL.

What's the deal on tipping movers. I saw between $5-$10 per hour per guy. That legit?

@JojoTheWhale looks like I'm not buying the 1st print run of the Collector's box. I should've bought when I initially asked. Prices now are ~$450.

If anyone else on here feels like being coverted to a Test Cricket fan?

Tomorrow would be a good day to start watching.

I've been missing it this far. Too busy. Which is nuts, because it's hard to wholly miss test cricket

Tbf I have only watched about 4 hours of the 4 days live... and that includes 2 hours today and watching Root get his century only.

As also adult life is getting in the way of me enjoying sport. Hilarious since I have worked for sport related organisations for over 5 years now... and the main reason I don't watch more sport is working for sport organisations lmao.

episode 9 of BoB is a rough rough watch

 

[Flybynite]

There was a story a day or two ago about Russia remote driving a tank towards a Ukraine position and then 'detonating' the tank because they loaded it up with tons of explosives. Looks like this was a similar type tank that was blown up by an RPG.

I'm catching the highlights on jomboy media on breakdowns and/or things you missed that you didn't plan on watching

 

[Embiid]

All squirrels must die! Put out the trash this morning and noticed my newly potted flowers on my porch were all uprooted by that f***er......

 

[Cody Webster]

Holy shit, moving sucks. I hope I never have to move again. It's also not great to move the same weekend you have two weddings either. My watch said I took 18,000 steps yesterday...I didn't leave the house

 

[Flybynite]

Wow. I remember seeing like last week the tickets were like $250,000. Apparently it's completely experimental, isn't actually' regulated/approved' by any official body. If it's on the ocean floor it's around 12,000 feet which like 10,000 feet further than any submersible has ever successfully had people rescued from in the past.

96 hours of air when they left Sunday morning would mean oxygen is only ok until about Thursday morning... but that assumes there is no oxygen leak and it's basically all electronics that failed (and the system in replace can scrub the air/replenish oxygen from the supply with an electronics failure).
