NHL Mega-Mock Draft Reboot - Discussion / Draft Thread – TITILLATING PHASE TWENTY-FOUR!

[Lord Defect]

Rather than us sitting around discussing who has you blocked, just stop worrying about it. If someone has enough sense to block you, they will know that they have to check the thread to see when they are up, which they will be able to tell even without suffering through your shitty posts.

So…?

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

So…?

So stop f***ing worrying about it before I block you.

 

[Lord Defect]

@Hollywood Cannon so i “need” to not be blocked by cap to participate?

 

[Lord Defect]

Who’s up?!

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

Who’s up?!

Except for your actual picks, there's nothing worse than when you come on here drunkposting metric tons of drivel on a weekend.

Im just trying to encourage the draft to move along so you’re decrepit ass don’t die on us

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

I'm on duty, so just do what you have to do. You know what to do. Doo doo, doo doo doo ...

As we wait for @Beef Invictus to finish his deep deep thinking, I’m going to regale you all with my absolutely insane travel itinerary for the next 24 hours.

My lovely wife impulsively decided to book a surprise family vacation on an island in the Atlantic off the coast of France. Sounds amazing, right?

It will be I’m sure, but getting there is going to be a veritable odyssey and one of the most bewildering experiences of my life. My wife and daughter are already there and I’m on the way with a couple of (pre)teen boys to join them.

So far, my dad dropped us off at 30th St. and we took the NE regional to EWR. A quick ride on a tram and we’re here waiting for our flight to Paris. A couple hours all told. Not too bad, right?

Well, here’s what the rest of the journey looks like:

Once we land, we have to get moving right away. Airport to train station via commuter train and a subway - about 40 minutes. Then a two hour train ride, then a two hour bus ride, then an hour long ferry ride, and finally we’ve arrived, only then we’ll have to f***ing bike the last 2 kilometers because that’s how one gets around on this island. It’ll be around 10 o’clock at night local time when I finally get to collapse in a heap.

When I complained about this - lightly, with a resigned chuckle - she laughed at me like a mischievous toddler.

Oh, I do love her so.

 

[Beef Invictus]

I will be picking soon

 

[ajgoal]

I will be picking soon

Should we buckle in?

 

[Beef Invictus]

Should we buckle in?

Eat the glue

 

[Beef Invictus]

Thank you Magua! Stippled Magua! Sensory Magua! Wrinkled Magua!

Sorry for the delay. I spent a lot of time thinking. Then I forgot to pick because I was playing with Legos by myself.


Endangered! Animal!

KOMODO DRAGON

Komodo Dragons can swallow boars whole. Just tip it back. They will climb halfway up a tree so gravity will let the boar just shloop on down. Or they'll use the tree to push it down their throat. They're gloriously lazy. They don't have venom or anything, but they have bacteria. So they'll law around until something wanders within easy range, and they bite it. The animal slowly gets sick and dies while the Komodo follows it around at leisure. They eat deer, and also anything they just find laying around. They try to eat humans. I'll feed them a deer during intermission shows to please the crowds.

My brother and his friends did a march madness style "if these 2 animals would fight, who would win" and set it out to a Twitter vote and Komodos were bounced in the first round. Preposterous. I was heated.

Now I have to ask. Did she do the same thing?

Who'd it get bounced by though?

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

When is something going to happen?

We start the day with @Lord Defect's dumb ass on the clock, @Rebels57 on deck, and @mja on the lido deck - I have his pick, so someone notify me when his turn comes up if you think of it.

We also start the day with Count Dogula trying to chew me to death.

They're an apex predator. They're idiotically dangerous.

 

[Lord Defect]

When it comes to extinct animals, the only answer is the Sabertooth Tiger. Thankfully it’s available, or we’re available since we’re snatching them up.

@Rebels57 whats your favorite story involving a sabertooth tiger?

 

[Lord Defect]

Stumbled onto this on twitter @Beef Invictus

Right down the hatch.

Every time a kid goes missing where Komodos live they're a likely reason. There was an attack where a kid was bitten in half pretty immediately.

No, she was already in France for work. She only had to do train, bus, ferry.
On the train now, which we very nearly didn’t make. My youngest is being a trooper but his superpower is complaining and it’s gone exactly how I envisioned it would. Meanwhile, she keeps sending me videos of her and our daughter on the beach. She was nice and found us a cab for tonight once we’re on the island though. I do love her so.

FOG Team Slow Dance Song

Wild Horses by The Sundays

For me its one of those examples of a cover possibly outshining an excellent original. Its also the song my wife and I danced to at our wedding. Fittingly, today is lead singer Harriet Wheeler's 60th birthday.

@mja

I think this will be a common denominator on the slow dance picks for us married fellas. If for no other reason than fear of castration if the wives ever found out.

I love her to pieces. I saw them in 1994. Check out these vocals.
