Okay. Just try to make sense when you respond upon your triumphant return. The dialogue works better that way.

What, you think it's nonsensical to repeatedly reply to a thread while simultaneously insisting that you don't care about the topic?
Oh wait. It turns out that I don't think it makes any sense either.

LOL. God forbid you address the nuances of a debate instead of resorting to generic insults.

Ahh yes. When you selectively choose 1 sentence and ignore the other 150 sentences, my point really does lack nuance.
Thanks for pointing that out
Can we be done with this?

Is a single drop of water chemically different from an ocean? Is a small dose of the pot calling the kettle black somehow not as hypocritical as a larger one?
I never said you were completely devoid of nuance. I was simply pointing out that you committed the same infraction that you busted somebody else's chops about.

Then do I have a show for you! In a soon-to-be way-the-hell-off-Broadway production:
The Karma Camel From Caramel: A Football Story (starring Filip Hronek).

Any out of staters have strong preferences for Hulu Live TV vs YouTube TV? I’m leaning a little bit towards Hulu because it has the ESPN+ add on which would get me the Wings games, but I’m sure I’m not the first one to make this choice so I figured I’d tap into the brain trust here.
I can't compare the two, but I'm happy enough with YouTube TV. It does what it says on the tin. I'm not loyal to it or anything, though.
I have Disney+ which gets me ESPN+ and Hulu. The couple of games I've watched via Hulu were fine.
The only other content I've watched via Hulu was Shogun, which I really liked.
Dunno if any of that is relevant.

I'm seen far too many of those f***in shows. My sister who used to live with me watches those almost exclusviely. That, too hot to handle, couple to throuple (her dog's favorite show, lol).
It's pretty surreal watching that show for me. It's filmed where I grew up so it's a giant wave of nostalgia, in addition to it being a great show. Marquette is such a small, out of the way place, I lost my shit the first time I saw it on a TV show.
Watching it with my partner from Minnesota like...
"Oh man, that's where I used to play hockey!"
"Oh man, I lived on that street!"
"Oh man, that's where my dad worked!"
"Oh man, that's my favorite restaurant!"
Basically every episode is me doing this:

I kinda loved Freaks and Geeks for that reason. Because it's basically set in like Clinton Township, MI, town of Chippewa named after Chippewa Valley High School. The main character's dad has a (fictionial for this, of course) sporting goods store on Metro Parkway. and the bars and stuff they go to are known bars in the Mt. Clemens.

Highly recommend Lake Superior Provincial Park in Ontario. Lucky enough to grow up with that in my backyard and it's truly one of the most prestine places you can imagine.
Many kids from there can't wait to leave. It really says something when the nearest "city" is Green freakin' Bay and that's a 3 hour drive through the woods to get there. But it's not surprising so many end up going back. It truly is a special place.
The winters are kinda nuts, though. Snow like most folks have never seen.
What's interesting is Joe Pera isn't even from the UP, he's an upstate New York guy. When Pera wrote his show about a small town teacher, they asked where he wanted it located. He realized he could pick anywhere and have it be an excuse to spend time in a spot he loved and get paid to do it. I guess he'd been to Marquette before and loved it so that was his pick. And I'm so grateful he did, otherwise I wouldn't have that love letter to my birthplace.

I grew up in Clinton Township and didn’t know that’s where the show was based. I’m going to have to rewatch it.

Yep, the town's name is Chippewa after Chippewa Valley High School where the director Paul Feig graduated from.
A1 Sporting Goods on 16 mile road in Chippewa, MI. Fictional sporting goods store on Metropolitan Parkway (16 mile).
Also, the Rusty Nail in the show would be the current "The Nail" on Groesbeck Highway.
