That sounds weird.
Time travel and parallel universes. The original story actually runs with Thomas Wayne instead, which could have been different and fun.

Don't care about another Batman. Though I heard they are making some crazy one where a couple of old Batman's would appear.
That one isn't actually a Batman movie, it's the Flash. The story they're adapting there (Flashpoint) does have some really fun Batman stuff in it, but they can't do it justice. Apparently both Keaton and Affleck are signed on for that one.

Bullying a family? A seven year old? That is some crazy-*****. I get they are probably snowflake products of helicopter parents who have never faced repercussions for their actions. They may also feel they had the "right" to do that because Trump is Hitler and all Trump supporters are Nazi scum. ? I sincerely hope they are arrested. If someone will do this to a child, imagine what they will do to other adults (and they were being filmed and didn't hand back the hat and apologize!)There wasn't a whole lot of concern for the kid from any of the women involved in that video. Even the mother seemed a bit more interested in getting her viral moment instead of looking out for the kid. Sending the kid after them instead of getting the hat yourself? But hey, gotta keep filming.

This guy has been hitting the suet cake. I think this is a Grackle. Picture came out pretty cool. Almost looks photoshopped.
You probably mentioned it earlier but I missed it. What kind of setup do you have to take these pictures?

CAR vs BOS going to 2OTs.
The one thing you can bank on when watching Boston - they are consistently a dirty team. Always just on the edge.
Fortunately the next two games in Toronto ended in regulation. After those first two, I was worried that they'd never finish any series being played up there.

I've never really understood the reasoning for hiding stuff on the inside of the jersey. What's next, the fight strap is pink?

The trainers used to work for free Sabre Jaks!
Did the team throw in the pants too?

My mom has one stored away in her closet. I really need to claim that thing at some point. It's probably way too small for me since the original owner (her uncle) was almost a foot shorter than me. But hey, it would still be a cool item to have on a wall or something.

I don't care how you justify it, a team with 79 points picking 1st and one with 68 points picking 8th is absurd. Red Wings look like one of the worst teams in history and they pick 4th?
Lotteries are a terrible idea, unless you're running the league and are more interested in helping big market teams than in helping crappy teams .
Then again, all the #1 picks in the world wouldn't make a difference for the Sabres.
I never liked it from the start when it was only one team, but the three team lottery is a complete travesty. Every year they've done it, there's been at least one big jump in the lottery order. Hell, the Rags have done it now two years in a row. The teams that desperately need the elite picks are being leapfrogged each year. It will be fun to hear all of the "it's fixed" talk fire up after this one because right as they're in a mini-rebuild, the Rags are handed two elite prospects.

Any guesses ?
There's a bit of a Dana Carvey look there.

I fail to see the 'sad' part of this. She was throwing Molotov cocktails to intentionally destroy property while engaging in a riot. He certainly assisted, and apparently purchased some of the materials.
They both ***** know better. While a mandatory 45-to-Life sentence is egregious and excessive based on the facts here, I have zero sympathy that they both threw their careers and law licenses away.
My guess is that someone dropped a flaming rag into her bud light and she didn't have time to stop and think before getting rid of it. I can't count the number of times that's happened to me.

I don't know exactly how this talk with the media played out, but did Marcel ask for specific examples? If you have the chance to ask that follow-up, you should be doing it face to face instead of on twitter. Maybe he did, I don't know.

I was down the street from a gas line explosion a year or two ago that leveled an entire building. I can't even imagine what it was like for anyone within a visible distance of this explosion. Those videos are downright chilling.

I saw an odd one this weekend. An elderly woman returned to her car in the handicap spot. After moving stuff into her car, she looked for where the cart area was, saw it, then decided to wheel her cart over and leave it in the middle of a large area intended for unloading of vans with wheel chair ramps built in. The odd part, the spot she chose was actually further away than the cart area. I'm not really sure what the thought process was there.

That's not exactly new. Most of the Bills' o-line were wearing those things 30 years ago.

Ever post on TSW?
We can count that as one word, right?

I have a couple rather minor USPS issues. One really isn't with the Post Office but rather the tenants next door. The apartment next door (in my building) is rented to medical students taking a board certification course here in St Augustine. They stay in the apartment anywhere from 4-8 weeks. Well, many of these folks do a change of address at the PO, which i think is fairly ridiculous for temporary housing---but maybe they are between residences, I guess.
The issues occur after they move. We still get mail to people who haven't lived here in years. Important mail, sometimes. No biggie. I just write "No longer at this address" and stick it back in the mailbox. Well, about half the time the mail carrier takes that mail, and leaves new mail to the exact same person. Seriously? WTF? We get very few pieces of mail. How hard is it to take a second to make sure you aren't putting mail in the mailbox with the same name as the mail you are taking to return? For this I blame both the old tenants and the carrier.
But mostly I just wanted to say, read Post Office by Charles Bukowski.
https://www.amazon.com/Post-Office-Novel-Charles-Bukowski/dp/0061177571
I'm not so sure the carriers themselves ever look at the names. That would need to be filtered out before it even gets to them. Yours did remind me of one thing that drives me mad. My neighborhood has a central mail kiosk. For whatever reason, if there is ever mail for an address that doesn't exist, my mailbox winds up being the dumping ground for it. Whether that's a sorting issue or a lazy carrier, I don't know.

49? I would have guessed that he was in his early 20s when he started out on Mythbusters.

Yep, This. We've had it happen with a number of packages since the lockdown started. USPS says it's delivered, it's not on our porch, the wife freaks out and starts emailing everyone, and then it shows up the next day. I've gotten her to the point where she'll give it a day or so now. So far, everything has shown up... eventually.
This kind of thing is a fact of life each year at Christmas time. I'm amazed that people are just figuring it out now.

Two evenings later a "neighbor" stated they found a package on their door stop with our address on it. They had not returned home last night. The address was the same as ours but with digits transposed making it being delivered a block away.
At least they brought it to you. In my neighborhood when people get mail for other houses, they like to post on facebook and ask where they can bring it. If only there was a handy number system on each piece of mail to tell you where the houses are...

I’ve been watching Snowpiercer on TNT....the season finale is this Sunday, and it’s been pretty interesting thus far...definitely like the TV show more than the movie.
Also, I just started watching The OA on Netflix. I’ve heard good things about it, and the first episode was intriguing for sure.
Each time I see someone mention OA, I just assume it's about the green lanterns.

A cart has to be pretty bad for me to take it back and get another one. I usually go with whichever cart I pick first.
Sometimes I get the perfect cart (usually Walmart). My son laughs at how excited I get when I get a cart with perfect alignment AND smooth wheels. No shake, rattle and roll ... just roll, baby.
I search until I get the cart where the front wheel continuously rotates as I'm pushing it.

That picture makes it look like you lured that one in with a steak. If you keep doing that I'll show up outside your window.
These pictures are making me very seriously consider putting a feeder outside my home office window. A couple neighbors are drawing a ton of hummingbirds so that may be a good option.
