My monthly roundup of favorite comments and quips.
For a few stretches in August, I was on-board sporadically or didn’t have time to document. I’m sure I omitted some good stuff. Anything good you think isn’t included, add it to the thread.
Some entries are edited for clarity or brevity.
We begin with
Post-of-the-Month wakeup call, courtesy
@cyhiphopp
Wake up, wake up, wake up
It's the POST OF THE MONTH
Get up, get up, get up
So take your likes and thumbs up
Leftover from July (didn’t see this until mid-August):
From the thread “Jack Trice Stadium Lego”
@Cycsk: Whoa! 3,010 pieces!
@dualthreat: I love stuff like this. I just wish it was 2 or 3 times larger.
@Cycsk: 9,030 pieces?
From “Iowa-ISU 2019”
@Walmartthieves: Does Stanley have a countdown clock for ISU like CMC has for Iowa?
@Statefan10: Probably not, but he does have a countdown clock for his next meal.
From “Hall of Fame Game is On.”
@CloneGuy8: If you're a degenerate like me and crave any sort of football, the Falcons and Broncos are on NBC.
@CyCrazy: I couldn’t care less. But here I am, posting in your thread.
From “David Still Being David” (regarding Montgomery)
@IASTATE07: Thought this thread might be about David Irving.
From “Automotive Advice”
@Cy4Lifer: Currently driving a 2014 Odyssey … At a recent service appointment, my technician said the vehicle will be due for factory-recommended timing belt and water pump replacement. Is this something I should take seriously or is this just a money grab?
@cowgirl836: Nah, wait til the radio can't drown out any odd noises. That's your signal to get it looked at.
From “Washer/Dryer Recommendations”
@1100011CS: Looking to replace our front-loading Maytag set that sounds like it's going to explode. My wife prefers front-loader, but that's really the only requirement.
@internetman: Get Bosch or your wife will leave you. Mine did.
From “Monday-ish OT: Yes. But No”
@Pat: I was shocked to discover Hasselhoff’s acting has ALWAYS been that bad.
From “Miami vs. Florida”
@Rabbuk: Miami looks like they haven’t practiced.
@Rabbuk (40 minutes later): Florida looks like they haven’t practiced.
From “Want Some Purdy Kool-Aid?”
@UNIclonefan: I'll probably contract diabetes from all the Iowa State Kool-Aid I'm consuming, and I don't mind.
@RING4CY: I’m here for a good time, not a long time.

From “It’s Finally Game Week”
@dbodeenisudm: How’s the punter looking?
@Gunnerclone: He’s got a leg on him. Maybe even two.
From “That is M----F---- to Prepare For”
@Fitzy: ISU has a safety hybrid type … who shares a first name with one of the school's former basketball coaches.
@VeloClone: What I learned in this thread: We have a new LB/DB hybrid player named Larry Wayne.
From “Friday OT: EDC.”
@Angie: What's your everyday carry?
@cyrocksmypants: Condom. One of these days I’m going to lose my virginity.
