  1. ChrisL's post in So what percentage of all the Simpsons shows would you guesstimate you have seen? was marked as the answer   
    My son went through a Simpsons phase as a kid so I have seen a fair number of them but as the show has been on for so long I’m guessing it’s still less than 10%.  
    Back when I was at Sony Pictures Gracie Films was literally outside our office and I spoke to Matt Groening many times.  Nice guy.  They had a party in their office once and I offered to staff it and he declined.  I then said, best to secure your Emmy’s that were in the open in the lobby.  He declined.  Aaaand the Emmy’s walked away….

    Oh for sure, not only did I break the law I endangered my life and those around me.  I’ll turn myself in to HR now…
  3. ChrisL's post in What's wrong with my dog??? was marked as the answer   
    The dog needs chili without beans!  
  4. ChrisL's post in Would parr8....? was marked as the answer   
    I don’t follow hockey but know Corey Perry as he was a long time Anaheim Duck.  Some sort of drama with the Blackhawks that got him released.  I take it that woman is involved but that’s the extent of my knowledge…

    I googled the answer.
     
  6. ChrisL's post in Where is Zeph? was marked as the answer   
    Hydrogen Sulfide from decaying matter in the mud.  We get it down south as well.  It smells like rotten eggs during low tide.   WOChrisL hates the smell but it’s a firm reminder of home to me. 
  7. ChrisL's post in If you were on jeopardy, which subject would you be least uncomfortable in withoot studying? was marked as the answer   
    Back at my Sony Pictures Days I stood at Alex’s podium and he has numerous que cards.  I understand he was a smart guy but didn’t know everything…
    I then went over to the Wheel of Fortune stage next door and spun the wheel! 
  8. ChrisL's post in When we are in the police car was marked as the answer   
    OK hold up… if you “wake up” in a police car handcuffed to another person how the hell did the officers get you in the car in the first place?  
    But if this were to happen to me I’m gonna say STFU…

    You got the fixins for a really hot salsa right there! 
  10. ChrisL's post in Coach Up was marked as the answer   
    I have heard the term in baseball.  Basically all players are coached but when focusing on a certain skill set with a specialized coach it’s sometimes said he was coached up. 
  11. ChrisL's post in America is nowhere near the worst for mass shootings. was marked as the answer   
    I’m not sure which source @Wilbur is referencing but this article is consistent with his reporting.   They explain the metrics and some of the fallacies with the data collection.  But yeah one mass shooting with a high death count coupled with a low population makes Norway #1.   But they disregard the point that there hasn’t been any mass shootings for many of the subsequent years after.

  12. ChrisL's post in Saturday tunes was marked as the answer   
    When that song came out I would sing Nikki’s mom has got it going on… WOChrisL never really believed it tho.

    Nobody made this connection???
     
  14. ChrisL's post in California Earthquake was marked as the answer   
    It really isn’t.  We get our rain in bunches and then we won’t see it for years.
  15. ChrisL's post in Do you believe in repressed memories? was marked as the answer   
    I’m guessing Jim is being facetious here.  There is a heavy campaign on US media about this big class action lawsuit regarding the contaminated drinking water.  It was on so much even this Army vet had to had to think it through to be sure I had never been on that Marine base.
    But after I see it another 600 times maybe I’ll discover a repressed memory too!
  16. ChrisL's post in Mascot Diagram was marked as the answer   
    The boop is funny, if you hold your fist out & tell Smokey to boop he’ll fist bump you with his nose.  
  17. ChrisL's post in I can't believe my life is trusted to these was marked as the answer   
    The pads are just one piece of a braking system though.  If you think about it, there are a number of things that could go wrong, a loose anchor bolt, bubbles in the lines, overheating & boiling the fluid. I mean the pads are just one of many potential causes of death on the bike.   
     
     
  18. ChrisL's post in Well yeah, rona in the house... was marked as the answer   
    🤦🏽‍♂️
  19. ChrisL's post in Top Gun (spoiler) was marked as the answer   
    Maybe if Charlie hooked up with Ice Man to spite Maverick for being such a douche and following her in the ladies room. 
    Now that would have been an odd spoiler worthy twist! 
  20. ChrisL's post in They learn by watching was marked as the answer   
    Last night I was at that softball game & was holding CJ.  My brothers Ex showed up and we do get along but give each other mad shit constantly.  So I say to CJ, wave to Tina and I manipulate his fingers so he gives her the bird.
    Tina punches me in the ribs and my daughter kicks me on the leg.  My daughter then says if he flips another person off your gonna have hell to pay! 😂
  21. ChrisL's post in My wallet is getting fatter - and this sucks! <bike commute related> was marked as the answer   
    Good call on the bus!  
    Yeah I ride this trail near work that has a 20’ narrow wooden bridge that goes over a 3’ deep by 10-15’ wide culvert.  I could easily ride through the culvert & have when pedestrians are on the bridge but I like testing my skills on that skinny bridge. I find it helps my overall riding skills as I have to hop up on it and then ride across.

  23. ChrisL's post in The speed sign flashed “20”. was marked as the answer   
    Uphill, downhill, either way I’m glad you are back on your bike! 
  24. ChrisL's post in Anybody Else Disappointed? was marked as the answer   
    Reminds me of the time my wife brought home 14 donuts that were leftover from a meeting.  She has one as a dessert.  The next morning the box is gone, donuts too. My son crushed a bakers dozen in one sitting. 
  25. ChrisL's post in Oranges have sucked recently was marked as the answer   
    I haven’t been buying them as it’s still too early in the year.  They need at least another month to come in season.  
    You are probably buying Southern Hemisphere fruit picked well before ripe & have been sitting for a while.
