Useless Thread MDCCCLXXVI - Dick Butkus Appreciation Thread

[Sega Dreamcast]

I have season tickets to the lions and used to go the season ticket member’s summit every year where there was a Q and A with the FO each time. One of the years, it was either 2016 or 2017, Bob Quinn sat up on a stage at ford field with Rod Wood and others answering various fan questions. Towards the end, Dan Miller decided to ask a light hearted joking question to sort of end the conference - he goes “if you had to choose one Lions player to have your back in a zombie apocalypse, who would it be and why?”

Rod Wood said Jarrad Davis, I think Matt Patricia said Matt Prater which was pretty funny, and then they get to Bob Quinn and I swear to god this guy goes “I have no idea what that means”.

Dan Miller, obviously stunned, goes “you don’t know what what means?” and Bob goes “that zombie thing... what?” to which Dan replies “you know, like when zombies take over the world”

Bob Quinn, deadass, goes “yeah, I still have no idea what that means”

meh it was a one time event

so stupid how WWE keeps bringing back people from the past. Wow, Rock was on Smackdown, DX was on RAW. How about you use some of that talenti n NXT instead of letting them go (mandy rose, paige) or not using them properly (Edge, Samoe Joe)

also, pretty sure I've said it before, reason kept wasn't renewed likely has to do with her wanting back in the ring but WWE's medics not willing to take the legal risks.

So why is Edge on NXT now.

Big Show, Samoa Joe and Edge are all on NXT. Meanwhile WWE has nobodies other than Roman Reigns who is always being pushed

"BUT NOBODY WWE CUT WAS ANY GOOD ANYWAY"

Just went downstairs and unloaded a dishwasher after running one for the first time in my life.

Wow, do you mean to tell me you can actually have crystal clear dishes without shit residue stuck on them?

"YOU NEED TO CLEAN YOUR DISHES HARDER"

I f***ING DO IN THE SINK

AND THERE'S ALWAYS f***ING RESIDUE THAT STICKS ON OR MAGICALLY APPEARS ON AFTER EVEN THOUGH IT WAS CLEAN RIGHT AFTER I WASHED IT

Clean big spoon in sink with sponge,, always disgusting shit that pops up like 2 hours later. but you were cleaned off fully.

take spoon out of dishwasher, nothing left on it.

A dish is either clean or still dirty.

Clearly you're not getting your dishes clean with your noodle arms and 2 year old sponge.

Scrub brush > sponge

remember when you told me not to use gloves when washing dishes.

Don’t wash with bare hands.
Take a minute to pull on gloves (you’ll have to shop for a good pair ahead of time) before you get to work. It sounds old-fashioned, but wearing gloves can keep your hands better moisturized and in better shape. If you’re a manicure person, your manicure will last longer. Plus, the gloves will keep your hands protected against super-hot water, which is best for getting your dishes extra clean .

Gloves are unnecessary.

How many f***ing dishes are you cleaning that it's even worth the effort of putting the gloves on in the first place

"super-hot water, which is best for getting your dishes extra clean"

Hot water will help speed up the cleaning process, but unless you're sterilizing your dishes, hot water isn't going to get your dishes cleaner.

Born-again Christian Shawn Michaels and corporate suit Hunter. What a rousing DX reunion.

Hunter immediately starts rambling with his old 20-minute opening promo bullshit, I immediately say "get to the point".

"Respect is a word that has lost it's significan-" I can't keep watching, this sucks. What the hell does D-GENERATION X care about respect, that's literally their gimmick, being anti-authority troublemakers.
