    2025-2026 NFL Season Thread - God hates the Chargers

    I'm more worried that since his wife just got those new up tops she might figure "D cups are for winners!" and dump him to have her new BFF TayTay write a horrible song about him for her next album.

    So... had a medical procedure today which involved being fully sedated. Which always screws up my sleeping schedule (which is usually like a damn well build clock). So I find myself up essentially all night (managed to sleep from around 2-3:15) And this floats across my X feed.

    The worst is seeing the types of people who buy these solely for "big ass truck!"... You see them fretting over a scratch and refusing to even drive over a curb and can only think to yourself... "Damn Pavement Princess"

    Bitcoin Per Se doesn't need to be money. But in general many people believe (and I am one of them) that some form of currency which is outside the ability of any government to manipulate/debase it is needed. Also a non-governmental controlled money would give many people more financial...

    He lost his mom earlier this year as well, so I think there's a whole stack of things at play here. Not to mention realizing he made the most notable defensive play of the year for the Cowboys, but somehow that still didn't get him promoted to a better team. (He was the one who ran in that...

    Yeah, it's just also causing consternation because we're seriously looking at moving. Buying land out somewhere, and building our "we're going to live out our days here" place. So that has us wondering how much money we want to sink into the current house. Add into that the fact that in our...

    So here is essentially the soft cap, at least for me.

    BTC strength is in it's stability and resistance to manipulation in terms of supply as a store of value. If you want anonymous money BTC has NEVER been that and never will by the very nature of an immutable ledger. If you want anonymous money, cash or gold for the most part. Cash has the...

    The starting QB on your fantasy team, the first week back from an injury, apparently breaks his left arm.... The team he plays on has their backup RB in (who your opponent this week has) and runs in a TD on the next play to put him 3 points ahead of you, and seals your loss for the week.

    For your NFL and everything over the air I can highly recommend the HDhomerun devices. Plug in an OTA antenna and it streams everything to all the devices on your network. Plug in an external USB and you have a DVR as well (which you will always own the recordings on). For NFL and any local...

    I have no idea. It just started this year, this year was the first time I've been intubated while being put under but it seems to happen every time now. I think they're lazy and don't want to monitor O2/breathing properly and it's easier to violate my throat with plastic.

    So, our fall project here at Chez Haus is interior painting. We both hate painting so we're OK with paying a good painter to come handle up on it. We budgeted $10-15k. We want to minimize the labor expenses so we start boxing everything we can and packing things into areas which won't be...

    I had to have a septum reconstruction done around 15 years ago (a lifetime of scar tissue from sinus infections).

    I don't think anything "has to give". It's the fact that there are several places making good money right now so smart investors aren't going to pile into something which doesn't have any reason to pile into it right now. Stocks are, as he says, tapping ATH levels. Gold is surging. There is...
