Century, buckethead had been popping off on Joey, giving him grief for driving a CPO Kia, etc. Eventually Joey came back with a ~1,000 word absolute hit piece detailing why bucket is the worst person on the face of the planet. Highlights included his failed teaching career and then going to work for his father in law at his disaster cleanup company (it was a knockoff Servpro or something). Wish I could remember more detail, but the upshot was bucket never showed his face in here again. It was just brutal.

I believe that Rouge made a disparaging remark about the Wives of GYERO and @Wodie Sloot put him in his place and embarrassed him so badly that he has never shown his face here again.

Me and the boys were stuck om I-64 just before Shelbyville exit for almost 2 hours on the way home from Easter egg hunt with family. Waze said something about a car under a semi and another car hit the concrete wall (in the construction). Hope everyone is okay! We made it home and the kids were surprisingly happy the whole time.

Joey had a line about bucket being such a failure that his father in law had to bail him out, and that his FIL was unable to look him directly in the eyes out of shame….

It was something so ruthless that it was unrecoverable, obviously.

Wasn’t his reason he didn’t want his online persona to affect his job? There are people that that makes sense for but I think communications at a D3 athletic department is safe.

Monday morning hot takes about your childhood:

  • Toys R Us was always trash and deserved to go bankrupt. Sterile environment. ****** lighting. It’s not like you could play with the games. Nothing like say that beautiful toy store in Home Alone 2. Good riddance.
  • Mr Rogers and Sesame Street were painfully boring, and in Mr Roger’s case creepy. Did you ever see his puppets? Lady Elaine Fairchilde was nightmare fuel.
  • We didn’t do an adequate enough job making fun of kids who wore Big Johnson and No Fear T-Shirts. I bet @B.B.d.K. had a bunch of those.
  • The majority of children’s books and toys people get nostalgic about were pretty lame. Teddy Ruxpen? Berrnstain Bears? Snoozefest!
  • The building that turned into a robot in Big had potential. The stupid bug idea did not. Bugs already move, so what exactly do they turn into? A metal version of a bug? On the other hand, what if you were in New York and the Chrysler building turned into a giant robot, picked up @Kooky Kats, and threw him across the Hudson? Pretty awesome.
  • We might have been at the pinnacle in terms of dining experiences (o.g, Pizza Hut), marketing slogans (“that’s six feet of bubble gum. For you. Not them.”), and beer commercials (the smoke shows in MGD commercials or the funny ones like “Give me a Lite, no, Bud Light”), and jingles (“Kiss a Little Longer with Big Red”), but we were absolutely at the bottom of the barrel when it came to snack foods. Hot Pockets, Pizza Rolls, Bagel Bites…. all those things were so bad. Add in items like Teddy Grahams and it’s no wonder why our society is struggling with health.

Might be wrong but the last time I recall BKH around here was when we lost to Evansville in Rupp. He went on an epic rant and was never seen again.
Yeah, and he came back for a minute as I recall saying he was fine and being on here wasn't good for his mental health or something. Which I get because I took practically 2 years off til Cal left.

But at Toys R Us , that wall/seperate area at front of store filled with Nintendo games was pretty cool.

Monday morning hot takes about your childhood:
The old school football jerseys you got for Christmas, Houston Oilers, Miami Dolphins, circa 1976-1980 were unmatched.
The Coleco Electronic Quarterback Football game, not so much. Did not age well. Right up there with Pong. (You had to start somewhere tho.)
As for Pong, wife said her parents were cult-like mesmerized by the game and played every morning in the kitchen. Lemmings.

Just seeing that wall of Nintendo game covers at Toys R Us was always an spectacular sight. Just hoping when you got to the game you wanted there would be a price ticket in the hang tag. Score.

💯 - from age 6 to 14/15, my annual birthday with Dad was to drive to Evansville, straight to Toys R Us video game wall, then lunch at a Mexican restaurant called 'Hacienda'. Only Mexican we knew in Madisonville for much of that time was Taco Johns, we finally landed our first actual Mexican junt in my early teens iirc. So it was always a treat to grab that special quesadilla and ample chips & salsa on my birthday. Had some skillet cookie we'd crush for dessert. 😊

-My parents would have literally beaten me if found with a Big Johnson shirt, but I definitely wanted the golf one.

The amount of big Johnson t shirts, no fear t shirts, rat tails, and this look where the kid shaved his entire head except he left straight bangs in the center of his forehead growing up in west Virginia was unsettling.

My biggest score was renting some N64 games from a Hollywood video right down the street from me. Can’t remember which ones - I think Zelda and NFL Blitz and then going back to return them a week later only to see they went out of business and I got to keep them

Didn't BKH show up at a tailgate, and get all pissy; giving Wodie a hard time for not keeping his beverage topped off etc?

re: UK Football - the new RB transfer, Seth McGowan. I seem to remember that he got into some semi-serious legal trouble, so that seems encouraging to me, like maybe he's got the stuff. Bonus points if it involved assault.
