Arlington. Two kids. Coaches little league.
The STARS chant during the anthem never gets old. I have been going to games for 15 years and it still gives me chills every time. First-time visitors always look around in shock when it happens.
Nolan Ryan\'s 7th no-hitter is the answer for any fan over 45. A 44-year-old throwing a no-hitter. It was physically impossible and he did it anyway. Peak Nolan Ryan.
Game 5 of the 2011 WCF was the loudest I have ever heard any building. When the final buzzer went off and we knew the Finals were coming, the roar was primal. You could hear it blocks away.
Netflix cancelling shows after 2 seasons has trained me to not start Netflix originals until they are confirmed for a full run. I will not invest in another show they abandon.
The highway naming thing is real. Nobody says "the" before highway numbers. You will be identified as a Californian immediately.
If you hate paperwork, Ownwell does it for 25% of savings. They only charge if they win. I use them every year. Worth it for the convenience.
bro what 😂
Not adding a goaltender is the decision that will make or break this season. I trust the starter but if he goes down with an injury, we are relying on a .901 backup in the playoffs. That is terrifying.
bruh
Matchup-based bullpen usage over fixed roles is the analytics revolution in action. Get the best arm for the most important at-bat, regardless of inning.
Not making a blockbuster was the right call. The prices teams were asking for star players at the deadline were insane. Multiple unprotected firsts for a rental? No thank you.
Jason Terry getting the championship trophy tattooed on his arm BEFORE the season started is the most chaotic confident thing any athlete has ever done. And it worked.
Agreed on the $22 burger. I made that mistake once and I think about it every time I go to a game. That burger personally offended me.

Washington is the team I am most worried about long-term. Their young core is developing fast and they have cap space to add pieces. In 2-3 years they could be the division favorite.
this is the content i signed up for
Bitwarden being free and open-source makes it the easy recommendation. There is no excuse for not using a password manager in 2026.
AT&T layoffs have been brutal and quiet. They do it in waves so it never makes big headlines. Everyone I know at AT&T is either gone or paranoid.
The copyright issue is the real problem. If you cannot copyright AI art, what are buyers actually paying for? You are buying something that legally anyone can reproduce.
Belgium banning loot boxes was the right move and every country should follow. Selling random-chance rewards for real money to minors is gambling with extra steps. The industry will not self-regulate.
Lethal Company at 1 AM with headphones on is genuine horror. The first time a Bracken grabbed me from behind, I screamed loud enough to wake my roommate. 10/10 experience.
Something is Killing the Children is genuinely scary in a way that most horror comics are not. Tynion understands that the horror comes from the mystery, not the monsters.
Al Ewing turning Galactus into the Lifebringer in The Ultimates is the single best character reinvention of the 2010s. Taking the ultimate villain and making him a force for creation is genius-level writing.
Eren crying about Mikasa in 139 is the scene everyone mocks but it is consistent with his character. He is a 19-year-old boy who just committed genocide and is about to die. Of course he breaks down.
Demon Slayer Episode 19 single-handedly proved that anime can surpass its source material. Ufotable took a good manga chapter and made it one of the most-watched anime moments of all time.
Dragon Ball Z Frieza Saga created the blueprint. Every power-up transformation in anime since is a descendant of Goku going Super Saiyan on Namek. Respect the original.
