NHL Mega-Mock Draft Reboot - Discussion / Draft Thread – SUPER F***ING AMAZING PHASE TWENTY-FIVE!

[CanadianFlyer88]

We'll select one of the most bizarre, but coolest, pets around. It was later parodied in a cartoon, which is actually how I learned of its real world existence. Because, really, how cool would it be to be pals with an ocelot?

The Seattle Sockeyes are thrilled to select Babou.

@Striiker, no striking!

I'm sorry. Both work and home exploded yesterday and today. Hopefully tonight.

You can't pick other members of the QV for these anymore.

I lied. Sorry.

The upshot is that no coworkers were harmed despite the day I had.

Thank you Striiker! Fungal Striiker! Deliberate Striiker! Useful Striiker!

Let's do game boss.

THE SIXTH COLOSSUS



I pondered doing the first, because seeing the first Colossus back in the PS2 days was incredible. I'm going with this one because the music is top notch.

@JojoTheWhale ! Cyclic Jojo! Repentant Jojo! Shaved Jojo!

I just watched this entire battle and now I want to play this game.

I'd like to meet a Caroline. Any Caroline. I'd walk up to her and go "You know, you're not that sweet."

We start the day with @JojoTheWhale on the clock and @Chuck Downie on deck with a pair (phrasing). @ajgoal can make up his pick anytime.

Here's a common thing that is happening. A new thing is introduced - in this case, women covering sports. In principle, you want to support it - gender equality (all equality) is good. But then women start covering sports before they are ready, and they aren't very good. You want to support them through it, like "Let's let them work their way into the role on the job just like anyone else." It's difficult to hold on to your principles when they irritate you. It's even more difficult when it doesn't make any sense for certain individuals to cover certain things in an "expert" role. Jessica Mendoza is a softball player in an "expert" role for baseball. Softball is not baseball - it's just different. I saw some hilarious memes about it the other day, and my own deep wells of sarcasm were screaming at me long before that. But she's not that bad on broadcasts - she needs to settle the f*** down in the studio, but during games she's not that bad. And that's the thing - she's no worse than Alex f***ing Rodriguez, in particular, and countless others in general. It's just that I saw her this morning in the studio, and she was totally spastic, and I am irritated, so I am thinking out loud.

I snagged one of these on launch for my wife and she absolutely loves it. Open Source + Unprecedented portable software freedom = M.A.D. Cats shit.

I love your world tour updates. What an incredible trip. How much longer is it going?

That is exactly what I passed on when I picked Intellivision - I assumed you would pick that or the ... well. I'll tell you later.

@JojoTheWhale just do it

I love your world tour updates. What an incredible trip. How much longer is it going?

8 more months, many, many more countries to come. Turkey (Türkiye) was 13, Georgia is 14.

There's 4 of us too and 2 are kids. They will have a richer life for seeing all this shit.

Have to run out for a couple of hours. Beef’s schedule is a hell of a lot more tight than mine these days, so if you get back, feel free.

He’s probably more qualified than Keith Jones, good pick.

 

[JojoTheWhale]

My wife is disgustingly talented. She's one of those people that can randomly start up something like glassblowing or nighttime sky photography and be good at it immediately. Meanwhile I can barely draw a straight line with a ruler, but that's not the point. She needs her own space for all the hobbies she picks up. So while she'll eventually come home, having her own neighboring pace is the ideal commute for her.

(This will self-destruct soon. Incoming HC shirt comment.)

@Beef Invictus You and your vinegar breath cannot live next door to either one of us.
