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

[Magua]

This day sucks. A dear friend of ours has been fighting a battle against brain cancer, but it looks like the battle will soon be over as she was moved to inpatient hospice today. I’m at their home right now taking care of their sweet little dog.

If my turn comes up today, just skip me.

f*** cancer.

I’m sorry about your friend, E. F*** cancer.

 

[Striiker]

My pick will arrive after lunch

Ok but what are we having for lunch

 

[Beef Invictus]

Thank you Striiker! Youthful Striiker! Purile Striiker! Androgynous Striiker!

I'm going to start with the thing I most fear getting poached. I'm going to do

BBQ MEAT

I do

SMOKED SALMON

This is a gastrological feat. A journey of palpable and intangible delights that soothes the flesh and electrifies the mind. Making this stuff to its fullest potential can take days. Of all the BBQ meats, this one approaches art more than all the others, which can be pure science. Heat and smoke management is a constant challenge perfectable only by those who can sense the tension of balance among all existence.

Also it tastes real good.

@JojoTheWhale !! Cybernetic Jojo! Vigilant Jojo! Ambrosial Jojo!

 

[Beef Invictus]

Buffalo wings and a donut

No. Ugh. This is dreadful news. My heart is with her.

But does it produce Salmon Death Farts?

 

[JojoTheWhale]

The chance of anyone overlapping with me in another category is not dissimilar to 0, so let’s just do this first. I don’t want to end up taking grilled pine sap or some shit.

I give you the superior (fight me @Young Sandwich) rib:



BBQ Meat — Baby Back Ribs

@Chuck Downie Someone, somewhere has a Chili’s Baby Back Ribs mural of the first floor on their apartment building. It’s probably a nice place to live.

 

[Beef Invictus]

Only if you're internally defective

I promise I make the best smoked baby back ribs you've ever had.

So sorry to hear this, my friend.

I hope you can at least get a slight chuckle out of me having to sit here like a true idiot until someone else replied so this post wouldn’t automerge with a bleeping Baby Back Ribs jingle. (Thanks, Beef.)

I will never fault someone for preferring pork over beef when it comes to ribs. I was once a child myself, after all.

 

[Magua]

Child the Elder would say the same, as she looks you up and down.

 

[Chuck Downie]

I will pick in the AM, whoever is next can pick if they are waiting

Friendly reminder to all my Quackies, Robby the Robot is my Team Kitchen Appliance. Now, go whisk some shit, Robby!

The Honolulu Ghibli venture into familiar territory for our next automaton. Our Team Robot (Skeleton) shall be......Geoff Peterson

Dearest Geoff! With his The Price is Right name tag, metal mohawk, and a self-described voice that's "one part Snagglepuss, one part Vincent Price, two parts George Takei." He already has a little place in the Quackverse where he goes swimming and throws beads because he has a little place everywhere where he goes swimming and throws beads. He's also a gay robot -- not that there's anything wrong with that.

Craigy Ferg is our Team Cheerleader, so the dynamic duo rides again (@kudymen )! This was the pinnacle of absurdist (non-cartoon) late nite. Their improv -- and the Late Late Show was almost entirely improv -- made my gut bust a gut. I watched it every night.





Fun fact: the late Grant Imahara from MythBusters was Geoff's creator.

*****

@BernieParent -- I don't know much about the Three Laws of Robotics, but I do know Quackverse Law says you're up!

Damn this might be one of the best picks in the history of the history of the history of the quackverse.
Thank you for tagging as I would've missed it with my low activity lately

 

[JojoTheWhale]

Headed out to a poker game, so if it gets back to me, I won't be around until the morning.

Which reminds me, @Magua. Josh Robert Thompson (the Geoff voice actor and many more things) was on Craig's podcast Joy a few weeks ago. Recommended. It's on Spotify

Good luck. Also show Mrs. Whale the plant

How delightfully degenerate. I hope it's in an unlicensed gin house.

Ahhh E I'm sorry man. Shit is awful

 

[BiggE]

Thanks guys

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

First of all, f*** cancer.

Hopefully we'll hear that all is well from Strawberry soon. I think we can go ahead and say that @Chuck Downie is on the clock, @JojoTheWhale is on deck, @Beef Invictus is on the lido deck, and Striiker is on the lido afterdeck. It seems like people are a bit scattered (literally and geographically) at the moment, so take your time.

That's all for now.
