#Phamily
(Yes, my current player is on DC, but I think there's justification for me to be celebrating with Prague given the circumstances) -
I'm only opposed to one team, and that team has no picks near where I would be expected to go, so this draft should be pretty fun

I'll post one of these over here, since it's not nearly as long as McWolf's: I'm not leaving. Not even briefly. I'm just going to embrace the clicker life and not have to do any actual work.

Not at all final yet, but currently the plan is for the first cooking stream to be Monday, Jan 10th. Prob around 9-10 PM (normally when I'm cooking for myself for the week it's at about 1 AM but I know that's unrealistic for people on more normal schedules).

It would be hilarious if after all these years, Brookside loses the title of best goalie in Cologne history to @Jericho of all people

When @Domg5 starts to have the captain vote, intending to give 2nd and 3rd choice the a, but the first five people to vote all vote the same way and there is no 2nd and/or 3rd...

When @diamond_ace invites you to the VHL but never sends a message or views any content created from my previous two players after knowing each other for 3 years now

Eras notwithstanding (trust me, I know this isn't nearly as much of a thing now as it was then, but bear with me):
Lars Intranquilo 989
Clark Marcellin 956 (7 season retirement, team needs)
Martin Brookside 908 I think (something in the 90_ set)
...
Dagmar Havlova 1002.-
A feat 10 years in the making
-
Just for you, I say 1,000 TPE is just as big a deal as it was in Intranquilo's day.

@TacticalHammer what we are talking about now

Boneless wings are not a thing!

No, but I saw that a few hours ago and it's what got me on the topic @Garsh - he's right. I've believed it for years, but never thought of some of the angles he took, and it brought the issue more to the forefront for me

I am all for the rebranding and stealing of the wing concept to call weird shaped nuggets boneless wings. Your not wrong with the arguments it's just, wings are messy and suck. You have to fight and work to get any scrap of quality meat no different than a rib. Society is stupid for liking these messy concepts. (And for eating at Carls Jr too, like what a slosh of mess their food looks like.)
Stealing the boneless wing concept opens the door for all us regular folk who enjoy food that goes in our mouth, sauce that goes in our mouths, and meat that isn't half fucking bone grizzle and garbage. We want to enjoy the concept of a wing, without the hassle. A Chicken McNugget isn't the same thing as a boneless wing from a wing place in terms of preparation, taste, and quality of food.
That said; I'll readily admit that I'm one of few who have this stance. People like their messy wings, their bibs to eat meat, their other associated gluttonous nonsense. You do you people, but I'll never stop calling them boneless wings. -
hear me out: wing shaped chicken breast cutouts, like with cookies.
Wasteful? Yes. Factually correct? 100%

@Victor has there been a Belize player?
-
Not according to this https://vhlforum.com/topic/73704-every-nations-greatest-vhl-player-a-to-c/
Youd have to filter by Belize in the portal to see if there was anyone newer.

For those of us who still think the DSA is the "greatest country in the world" - there are dozens of countries wherein attempted coups are not tolerated, let alone spurred on by the leader of said country. The DSA is not the greatest country in the world, never has been, but never has it been more evident than today.

I think it's easy to overestimate just how many Americans (especially those from the Murica crowd) even knew the World Juniors were happening, let alone actually supporting Team USA. We're on a hockey site, the percentage of us here who would have watched it is not representative of most of the country. Honestly, I probably wouldn't have known about it had I not seen so many posts from VHL Canadians on discord about it, and that's from someone who actually follows hockey. Most of us don't.

Just remember, tonight when the news coverage is focusing particularly heavily on my state in particular: we're not all like that.

Feel free to consider Australia as a post-election destination.

Blows my mind how a massive portion vote though. Similar nations in some ways (CAN/USA) very... very... very different in others. 4 years of twitter, saying dumb stuff, just how he acts and what he says and being a narcissist isn’t even enough to not be president.
Good luck from Canada
Remember Gritty, someone in Texas government also said the economy was more important than people’s lives and that there’s “more important things than living”. That guy will probably be next USA president

Since I've already gotten a few inquiries about it: if you want my S71 1st here is what you have to do:
1. Wait until I am dead or incapacitated and can no longer run the team
2. Install someone else as GM who is either favorable to your cause (a spy) or pick-averse (Devise)
3. Acquire the pick from the replacement- Show previous comments 4 more

@Devise is about to come out of retirement just to make this happen.

So I've seen a handful of different members in their expansion articles touting me as the "best VHLM GM of all time" and while my most recent run was in fact an attempt to reach that title, I don't think I've entirely gotten there. I have the longevity over several stints, sure, but has it really been so long that we've forgotten @CoachReilly? I think I'd largely place myself 2nd, which is still a pretty hefty statement (and there are a lot of contenders in or around that stage) but 3 cups in 5 seasons is amazing and there's a reason the trophy is named the Jack Reilly trophy rather than the Jason Glasser trophy.

I'll take my dominance over 5 years as VHLM GM. VHL was better for me though

This is one for the old heads in here. I'm currently playing Slitherio as "Robin Big Snake"

Crying Marchand is now my new favorite thing

So I go from both my teams winning their respective cups to both my teams losing their respective finals
