RITA'S XXXVII: Habits Old and New

[Tadhg]

Is the Stardust trade worth buying?

The illustrated version with Vess art? I'd say yes. It's a nice little fantasy tale, nothing spectacular but Vess is pretty.

[Kid Omega]

Is the Stardust trade worth buying?

If you like Neil Gaiman. Or JONATHAN STRANGE AND MISTER NORRELL, which uses Gaiman's mythology.

I would say... yes. And we have the softcover and hardcover available!

[Jeff Brady]

Is the Stardust trade worth buying?

Stardust is awesome. You can borrow mine, if you like.

And we have the softcover and hardcover available!

You're such a shill!

[Dr. Hfuhruhurr]

If you like Neil Gaiman. Or JONATHAN STRANGE AND MISTER NORRELL, which uses Gaiman's mythology.

I would say... yes. And we have the softcover and hardcover available!

Stop with the smarmy shilling already!

[jessecuster3]

You're just mad because the Bears are going to begin their slide back towards mediocrity this year. No Thomas Jones, Grossman has been exposed as the fraud he is and a defense that is losing good players left and right. Yeah, you've got your own problems.



Oooh you just watch Benson run and run and run, you are all going to be saying Thomas who?

The only person who beat Grossman last year was Grossman, and now that Olsen is there he is going to develop into a fantastic quarterback, just you watch!


The best part is that noone else in the Central even has a chance, the Bears could only send a defense and they would still win the division.

[Dr. Hfuhruhurr]

Oooh you just watch Benson run and run and run, you are all going to be saying Thomas who?

Until he gets hurt, which should be by, oh, Week 3.

The only person who beat Grossman last year was Grossman, and now that Olsen is there he is going to develop into a fantastic quarterback, just you watch!

Oh, I'll watch all right. I'll watch as every defense in the league feasts on Rex's INTs. The guy's been exposed. Every D coordinator in the league knows his game by now: "When I don't know what else to do, I'm going to chuck it downfield as far as I can."

The best part is that noone else in the Central even has a chance, the Bears could only send a defense and they would still win the division.

Yeah, that strategy was pretty effective in the Super Bowl, wasn't it? The Central is pretty weak right now, that I'll grant you. But I think the Packers -- with a very good defense, a good group of WRs and, of course, Favre -- will challenge for the division title, the Lions will be better (they could be scary on offense, if their line comes together) and the Viqueens will suck.

[Winslow]

Lions fans must have the most character of anyone ever.

No, we just give up.

See below:

They have fans?

I love to see delusions of grandeur.

I'm quietly optimistic about the Patriots this year....that's if the Randy Moss/Donte Stallworth/Wes Welker tandem gel, Laurence Maroney becomes a stud, and Adalius Thomas turns into the monster he was with the Ravens.

As for the fantasy angle, there are degrees of insanity. I care more about the game, then my fantasy players, but there was a time I bought the NFL Sunday Ticket just so I could skip from game to game to follow my guys. That was three years ago.

[jessecuster3]

Oh, I'll watch all right. I'll watch as every defense in the league feasts on Rex's INTs. The guy's been exposed. Every D coordinator in the league knows his game by now: "When I don't know what else to do, I'm going to chuck it downfield as far as I can."




See with Olsen, he no longer has to do this. The majority of his interceptions actually came from overthrowing his receivers, if he gets his passes down its lights out NFL.

[Merey]

If you like Neil Gaiman. Or JONATHAN STRANGE AND MISTER NORRELL, which uses Gaiman's mythology.

I would say... yes. And we have the softcover and hardcover available!

Thanks. And I like knowing what stuff you have available because more often than not, you're likely to have what my tiny little nearby office local store doesn't. So please, shill away! So, I'll keep it in mind for the next time I'm in your neighborhood.

[Ray R.]

Yup. If the running game comes into place for the Packers, they'll contend with the Bears. I also think the Lions will be this year's Saints, with the possibility of winning 9 and potentially 10 games based on their schedule. Give me shit about it in January if I'm wrong.

[Dr. Hfuhruhurr]

Give me shit about it in January if I'm wrong.


Oh, we're there for you, Ray. You know that.

I have confidence in Rex's ability to continue to overthrow his receivers.

And, you're assuming Rex will actually check down to his TE. That usually takes things like "preparation," which as we all know, isn't really Rex's long suit.

[Ray R.]

Oh, we're there for you, Ray. You know that.

I'd expect nothing less.

I wonder how he! feels about being hosted by the same person as Morts...

[Slam_Bradley]

Hey is the Early Years of Mutt and Jeff any good? I got a copy for free, I know I could just crack it and find out, but I'm lazy.


I haven't gotten it. The reviews I've seen haven't been that favorable. Apparently it's rather piecemeal and the printing is very small.

Let me know if that's true.

[Ray R.]

He's really a nice enough guy, but he does have an ego.



...and of COURSE that will set me up for getting slammed by folks defending him, even though it was never intended as a malicious comment.

I think the tide has turned, pretty definitively so. The slamming here on CBR is decidedly one-sided.

Which is why it was brought back to the offendee's home turf, and the mewling sycophants are there to wash his feet, without even seeing the "competing" site in question.

Yup. I am surprised that the continued claim of perpetual and unchallengeable ownership of comics mockery would not have been dropped right afterward, but there will always be people around to prop up the indignance of "threatened" comics "geniuses". See, e.g., Byrne, J.

Personally, I've lost a lot of respect for someone who could have just said "mine is better," and let that be the end of it.

He's good, then bad. He tried to rape Odie twice this week, so that's encouraging--he's still in it to win it. The medicine schedule is a pain, though. He hates his IV fluids, his special diet, and the Maalox-like stuff I have to force down his throat twice a day, but his spirits are high.

If you *were* issued one and refused to acknowledge his/her presence for 5 consecutive business days and/or did nothing remotely praise-worthy for a period of not less than 21 days of each month, your duly appointed sycophant would default to the poster with the most praise-worthy posts during said period.

Speaking of poo poo:

One thing to expect on a seriously low carb diet is constipation.

You can use those fiber supplements, eat low carb veggies like spinach, and drink plenty of water to mitigate this somewhat.

But I'm talking about ketogenic diets (less than 10 grams of carbs per day). The South Beach Diet might give you enough fiber to avoid that.

Constipation is not one of my worries. Over the years I've discovered for me at least its the amount of dairy products I ingest that screw that up.

As far as Grossman, its funny how easy it is forgotten that he had 10 games with an over 80 QB rating, 7 of which he was over 100. And he was technically a rookie, this will be only his second full season, but don't listen to me, watch the first quarter Monday night and see how much better he looks.

It's not forgotten, I mean shit, how could we, it's the only argument you have for him.

"Grossman chokes against good teams"
"He had 7 games over 100 rating"

"Grossman misses his reads"
"He had 7 games over 100 rating"

"Grossman has poor accuracy and his receivers are usually left hanging on his soft lobs."
"He had 7 games over 100 rating"

"Grossman is always ill prepared, and relies on the the talented running game to allow for his passing to work"
"He had 7 games over 100 rating"

"Grossman is the devil, he kill puppies"
"He had 7 games over 100 rating"

That's a retarded argument.
First as an appeal to emotion it fails. I have no emotional investment in the Lions outside of a deep love for one, Barry Sanders.
It's not relative. His relative merit against Detroit's quarterbacks has no bearing on his actual worth.
I'd have to seriously contemplate between picking Kitna or Grossman.

Sorry, I am willing to have faith that he spent the offseason working on his mechanics and watching last seasons film. The team got him a TE as another outlet, and between Berrian, Bradley and Hester, he now has 3 speed demons to run under the ball, who can catch. His mobility can only be improved and if the last game was any indication he is not going for the home run every time.


But you know, I am prepared to keep him on a short leash this year and be willing to put Griese or even Orton in if he fucks up.

Dom was just being his usual charming self. He's just busting your balls a little bit. Relax.

Besides, if you're going to delude yourself that Grossman has a chance in hell of ever duplicating that 10-game run, you deserve a little flick to the nuts.

Hmmmmm...

I may have to try that. The Chick Flicks aren't doing the job, either.

[Ray R.]

I wouldn't say he's much better, but he's certainly more consistent. Still turns the ball over too much.

He does turn over the ball too much. I'll take this new kid Charles Johnson over Bernard Berrian though (I WILL draft Berrian if it's the right round, though). He's looked outstanding in preseason. With Mike Martz, Tatum Bell, Roy Williams, etc., I think the Lions are going to score tons of points. And Kitna proved himself in Cincinnati, the jury is still out on Grossman.

Maybe Kitna's not better on raw skills, but he's better due to experience and the offense around him.

I've hung mine on the wall, along with the empty pint of Haagen Daaz I used as bait.

Haagen Daaz? you went for the cheap ones. i would at least expect a full-course french dinner.

We don't have to segregate your answers to do that. The whole answer will do it nicely.

[Dom]

We don't have to segregate your answers to do that. The whole answer will do it nicely.

But Rex Grossman has 7 games with an over 100 rating!!!!

[Dreadstar]

Maybe Kitna's not better on raw skills, but he's better due to experience and the offense around him.

Kitna did prove himself to us Bengals folk.

Say what you will about him, he's a smart QB; quick of mind on the field.

[Ray R.]

Haagen Daaz? you went for the cheap ones. i would at least expect a full-course french dinner.

For a really big girl? No need to get a home equity loan when some Jagermeister and Ben & Jerry's will do.

[jessecuster3]

This season is going to be great, I hope none of you mind an intense of amount of gloating every time he wins a game.


You don't like him I get it, but I could easily name at least 10 starting QBs that are worse. Do I think with him starting that we can win the Super Bowl, yes. Do I wish we didn't have someone better at position, of course. But Lovie says he is our guy, and I certainly trust him.

[Ed Cunard]

Hmmmmm...

I may have to try that. The Chick Flicks aren't doing the job, either.

The typical response I get from girls regarding my obscene love of chick flicks?

"Faggot."

[Dr. Hfuhruhurr]

Kitna did prove himself to us Bengals folk.

Then why'd they cut him? His arrest record too short?

[Dreadstar]

Did you try showing them your "spear?"

Hey, I'm a Bears fan, and I still think this post above more belongs in the thread I started this morning.

[Ed Cunard]

Did you try showing them your "spear?"

I would have, but we weren't in the science lab. And, seriously, who carries a microscope with them everywhere?

[Tadhg]

Did you try showing them your "spear?"

I think it was him trying to show me his spear that was part of the problem.

[Dr. Hfuhruhurr]

The typical response I get from girls regarding my obscene love of chick flicks?

"Faggot."

They're just not used to a guy like you who is secure in his dubious sexuality.

[jessecuster3]

Hey, I'm a Bears fan, and I still think this post above more belongs in the thread I started this morning.

Hey look at the NFC though, its Chicago, Dallas and New Orleans, thats all of the competition and we KILLED the Saints, who really haven't gotten much better in the offseason.

So getting to the big game is no worry, winning it on the other hand...

[Dreadstar]

Then why'd they cut him? His arrest record too short?

I wish they hadn't. Most people don't believe me when I tell them that the club LIKED him and therefore let him go as a favor. They had settled on Palmer, and knew Kitna was still better than oh, 6 to 10 other starting QBs at that time, so they let him go to try to land a starting job.

That and the whole salary cap and the short arms of the Brown family, duh.

[Dom]

They're just not used to a guy like you who is secure in his dubious sexuality.

How did you get your wife to get used to you?

[darkhanamaru]

is getting wings from hooter's to go pathetic? our eating options by the wharf are really limited...

Oh, I think you're wrong there. I think both Dallas and the Saints have improved, while Chicago is going backwards.

Oh, I believe it. I'm just giving you shit so that jesse doesn't think we're all ganging up on him.

[Ed Cunard]

I'm actually fond of Hooters. Not the wings, though. The wings are kind of atrocious. Really, I just go to ogle tits.

Or because you can build-your-own-six-pack at the one near me.

And the tits.

[Ray R.]

This season is going to be great, I hope none of you mind an intense of amount of gloating every time he wins a game.

I don't dislike him at all. He's probablya wonderful conversationalist over dinner. I just think he buckles like a styrofoam cup under pressure and without that defense and running game to carry him, he's exposed as a mediocre QB.

[Dr. Hfuhruhurr]

is getting wings from hooter's to go pathetic? our eating options by the wharf are really limited...

Yes. You would be better off eating out of the dumpster at McDonald's than eating anything that Hooter's serves. Let's put it this way: no one goes there for the food. If the food were any good, the waitresses wouldn't be dressed like hos.

How did you get your wife to get used to you?

If I could find the answer and bottle it, I'd be a bajillionaire.

oh my coworkers lie then. i never actually ate at one. i guess i am taking a walk around for food.

[Dreadstar]

Hooter's wings suck compared to say BW3.

HOWEVER! Their grilled mahi-mahi sandwich is really good.


And tits.

[Ray R.]

Yes. You would be better off eating out of the dumpster at McDonald's than eating anything that Hooter's serves. Let's put it this way: no one goes there for the food. If the food were any good, the waitresses wouldn't be dressed like hos.


I cannot disagree with this statement in any way whatsoever.

No drumsticks, just overbreaded, jarsauce soaked, unsatisfying wings with more skin than meat on them? Pass.

[Slam_Bradley]

That and the whole salary cap and the short arms of the Brown family, duh.


What's all this talk about celery caps? Why would anyone want to wear celery on their heads?

[Lone Ranger]

Eating at Hooters for the food is the culinary equivalent of reading Playboy for the articles.

[Matt Algren]

The typical response I get from girls regarding my obscene love of chick flicks?

"Faggot."
We've been over this before, Ed. Folsom Filth is not a chick flick.

[Dr. Hfuhruhurr]

Oh! That's very different! NEVER MIND!

They had pretty good crab dip for a while.

...

The jokes kind of write themselves.

[Matt Algren]

Eating at Hooters for the food is the culinary equivalent of reading Playboy for the articles.
I know someone who claims he does that. I think he was surprised when I called bullshit.

[Dr. Hfuhruhurr]

They had pretty good crab dip for a while.

...

The jokes kind of write themselves.

And the steamed clams.

And the raw oysters.

And the fish tacos.

Stop me before I Carlin again...

[Dreadstar]

OK. This is fucking weird.


I just got off the phone with a friend who suggested we meet for a beer tonight at...









...Hooters.

[Dom]

I don't think we have a Hooters in Montreal.

Mind you, the way the women here dress, Hooters might as well be a convent.

[Ed Cunard]

Eating at Hooters for the food is the culinary equivalent of reading Playboy for the articles.

Actually, the articles in PLAYBOY do tend to be pretty good. They print fiction from people like Joyce Carol Oates, Thom Jones, and Tobias Wolff.

I'd say it's the culinary equivalent of reading Hustler for the articles.

[Dr. Hfuhruhurr]

OK. This is fucking weird.


I just got off the phone with a friend who suggested we meet for a beer tonight at...

Obviously, your friend is a lurker.

[Dreadstar]

John Updike.

And this is the point where jesse posts the following:

"What are you saying? I've been reading the articles in Hustler for years and I think they're fabulous!"

[Ray R.]

John Updike.

Alex Haley....

[Ed Cunard]

John Updike.

I think that might be a different magazine.

...

[Dreadstar]

Obviously, your friend is a lurker.

I think I'll try to talk him into BW3.


On the other hand, the mahi-mahi sounds like an OK choice tonight.



Hmmmmm.... are the oysters in season? What's that rule of thumb about months with a "J" in them?

[Ray R.]

And this is the point where jesse posts the following:

"What are you saying? I've been reading the articles in Hustler for years and I think they're fabulous!"

Then we respond, and he asks why we're always picking on him in particular.

[Dreadstar]

I think that might be a different magazine.

...


With an "i", not a "y".




Jeez.

[Ed Cunard]

And this is the point where jesse posts the following:

"What are you saying? I've been reading the articles in Hustler for years and I think they're fabulous!"

To be fair, Jesse has really good taste in reading material.

It's what makes his taste in everything else seem so weird.

[Ray R.]

I think that might be a different magazine.

...

No. Dread's right. I think I read part of "Rabbit at Rest" in Playboy. Right after I masturbated.

[Dr. Hfuhruhurr]

I don't think we have a Hooters in Montreal.

Mind you, the way the women here dress, Hooters might as well be a convent.

Eating at a Hooters in Montreal might be the equivalent of eating at a Burger King in Paris.

[Dr. Hfuhruhurr]

To be fair, Jesse has really good taste in reading material.

It's what makes his taste in everything else seem so weird.

You're only saying that because he reads your blog.

[Ed Cunard]

No. Dread's right. I think I read part of "Rabbit at Rest" in Playboy. Right after I masturbated.

I know Updike published in Playboy. You think that's going to get in the way of my making a bad joke? Shit. If I couldn't make bad jokes, I...

Shit, I really wouldn't be able to do anything.

I'm going to go commit suicide now. I'll talk to you guys tomorrow.

[Dom]

Eating at a Hooters in Montreal might be the equivalent of eating at a Burger King in Paris.


You know what the call a quarter pounder with cheese in Paris?

[Ray R.]

I'll have the Royale with Cheese.

[Dr. Hfuhruhurr]

I'm going to go commit suicide now. I'll talk to you guys tomorrow.

The phrase "commit suicide" always struck me as odd. It's as if you were going to do it to someone else.

You can't suicide someone?

[Dr. Hfuhruhurr]

You can't suicide someone?

If I can, I have someone in mind...

[Dreadstar]

If I can, I have someone in mind...

So much for YOU getting my PoA.

[Dom]

If I can, I have someone in mind...

My ears are burning.

[Dr. Hfuhruhurr]

So much for YOU getting my PoA.

Probably a wise choice on your part.

[Dr. Hfuhruhurr]

My ears are burning.

Stop sticking your penis in them then.

[jessecuster3]

Oh, I think you're wrong there. I think both Dallas and the Saints have improved, while Chicago is going backwards.


How do you see them going backwards?


Oh, I believe it. I'm just giving you shit so that jesse doesn't think we're all ganging up on him.

Then we respond, and he asks why we're always picking on him in particular.

Not on this count, I will defend the Bears until the day I die. I saw PS3 Bears controllers at Best buy yesterday and if I had a PS3 they would have been mine, no question.


And this is the point where jesse posts the following:

"What are you saying? I've been reading the articles in Hustler for years and I think they're fabulous!"


Close, but the only reading "articles" I have ever done was in Penthouse.


To be fair, Jesse has really good taste in reading material.

It's what makes his taste in everything else seem so weird.

This is funny, because so far my only tastes that have been discussed in here comprise at most like 5% of what I really like. But I frequently have been called on my hyperbole, which is why my friends chose my blog to be called "The Is The Best EVER!".



It is now defunct, so you won't be able to find it.

[Slam_Bradley]

The phrase "commit suicide" always struck me as odd. It's as if you were going to do it to someone else.


If they're so committed to suicide, why do they fail so often?

[Dr. Hfuhruhurr]

How do you see them going backwards?

By continuing to start Grossman at QB.

Close, but the only reading "articles" I have ever done was in Penthouse.

Then you've read my work. Thank you.

[Dom]

Stop sticking your penis in them then.

I would get mad, but you just insinuated I have an incredible long penis.

So I'm ok for now.

[Dr. Hfuhruhurr]

If they're so committed to suicide, why do they fail so often?

Typical Americans. Only doing things halfway.

[jessecuster3]

Again with the joke killing.

The only reason I used "playboy for the articles" is because it is such a common statement. Google results (http://www.google.ca/search?hl=en&q=%22playboy+for+the+articles%22&meta=) - That's why it's funny.

No one says "I read Hustler for the articles" Google results (http://www.google.ca/search?hl=en&safe=off&q=%22hustler+for+the+articles%22&meta=), that's why it wouldn't be funny.

In order for that to be true, the site would have to have stories lacking in the basic principles of story telling.

It isn't working. The alcohol will help you forget your balding head, graying temples and the fact that you are basically falling apart.

I haven't been able to pin-point it yet because I don't work here while she's here, most of the time.

I get out of here in about 15 minutes. Woo!

Ed's self-respect.

...I propose a toast to my self control
You see it crawling helpless on the floor
Someday there'll be a cure for pain
That's the day I throw my drugs away
When they find a cure for pain

I am so confused by Lena's posts right now.

I'd watch out for librarians, just on principle.

I had a burrito, with some cheetos on the side.

I really want an alka-seltzer.

Everyone in my office went golfing, except me.


I'm contemplating something... naughty.

Has anyone ever told you you have the most beautifully feral eyes?

I wholeheartedly agree. Whole boards, even.

[Spike-X]

A guy that used to post there sometimes, I think his last name was Porta, was a big drama guy.

Isn't he the douchebag that used to send long homophobic letters to comics like Zot! back in the day?

[Dreadstar]

Holding your transformers?

Nothing I can get fired over. I've got 26 years in the PERS. You think I'm stupid?

What's confusing you? I can't pin-point what's odd about one of my co-worker because I rarely work with her.

I can think of one or two I'd like to avoid.

I don't know about those letters, but I wouldn't have described him as a 'super-liberal'.

You.

I'm confused by you.

This part I, of course, understand.

[ragnarok_2012]

You.

I'm confused by you.

She's an enigma covered in a hard chocolate shell wrapped in tin foil inside one of those heart-shaped Valentine's Day boxes, she is.

Later all.

I may take a break for awhile . . . sayonara.

With Morts posting less during the day, my brain is trying to pick up the slack.

[Mac Danny]

crackling?

You know, those little Kirby dots.

Awful tasty in a cosmic kind of way.

[Matt Algren]

crackling?
If she means what I think she means, ew.

You know when talking to people that I would think you call friends, sometimes you guys are downright assholes.

I should probably join you. Take it easy, Winslow.
