Launching it a bit early this month, so I don't lag the way I did in May.
A few of my favorite comments, dialogue and zingers from CF, June 2019. Some are edited or condensed for clarity or brevity. I also have a bonus entry, doing it separately due to volume.
As usual, if you're aware of any good ones I missed, add to the stack.
@Sigmapolis: First on the list! Suck, it, haters!
@dosry5: No, you suck it.
(Topic is from May, but comment posted in June)
From “Peterson: Fans Finally Starting To Accept That Fred Is Nebraska Coach”
@cycloneeric: I’m finally starting to accept that this is a thread.
From “Favorite Movies That Predate You”
by @Cyched: Which movies do you like that came out before you were born? If you’re an old fart, any classic movies will do.”
@CycloneErik: Two questions: 1. Define "predate." 2. Is it even possible for @ImJustKCClone to answer the original question?
Nominated by @CYCLNST8 (lost track of the thread title)
@Acylum: Teddy Atlas says this fight will set back physical fitness 100 years.
From “On That Note: For the Birds”
@ BoxsterCy: What, no “Disco Duck” yet?
cyclones500: Well, here’s your chance!
BoxsterCy: There are, surprisingly, some levels I can't bring myself to stoop to.
@jcyclonee: (posts “Disco Duck”) I’ll go there. I have no standards. Except I won't stoop to Anne Murray level. I guess I have some standards.
From “Essential Household Items”
@cycopath25: … The wife chastised me for asking her to pick up deodorant for me … She can't understand why I would want multiple back-up deodorants.
@Acylum: Sounds like you need a backup wifey.
From “Front Pocket Wallets” (started by @cycopath25)
@knowlesjam: Front… use double flip leather wallet and keep cards, pictures and $'s to a manageable number...wife helps with keeping the $ number low.
@chadly82: Are there any (wives) who aren’t good at that?
@cyhiphopp: Hell, my ex-wife is even still good at that.
@VeloClone: I used to have a stuffed wallet, but now have a thin one … I carry my stack in a money clip separately. It is pretty easy when my 'stack' is usually around $12.
From “Let’s start a new Hickory Park debate”
@imaclone2: Been going there for 40 years and ordering the same thing. I'm beginning to wonder if I'm predictable?
@andybernard: Better than Jacob Park.
From “Tyrus McGee dunk”
@Stewo: I do this all the time to my 5-year-old on the 4-foot Playskool hoop. Big deal.
From “Mid-Week Mailbag (6-19): THT and the Draft…”
@Fitzy: Welcome to NBA Draft week, where everything’s made-up and the Knicks don’t matter.
From “Boomers wondering what millennials have planned… ”
@mtowncyclone13: Fun fact: i've never actually seen avocado toast — only people talking about millennials eating avocado toast.
From “Would you take a non-lethal gunshot wound to the thigh…”
@FarmClone: Am I cool with it? I would do it to myself.
@harimad: Not my thigh, but the thigh of other CF posters, sure. Yes, they may be hurt, but that is a sacrifice I am willing to make.
@MeanDean: No deal. I need to know the day/year so I can be sure to get good tickets. I have to BE THERE!
@jcyclonee: Is this a deal with the devil thing where we win a championship and I’m alive but in a vegetative state? I hate the devil.
@coolerifyoudid: I will gladly shoot several of you for a national championship. Hell, I'd pistol-whip a few of you for a Clone Cone.
@rochclone: I would take a single gunshot for football and multiple gunshots for men’s basketball.
From “U2 Concert 9-11-92 Identify Girl Pulled From Audience”
Easier to post the link, too many nuggets to differentiate … although I’ll include one as a starter:
@Cycsk: This may be the most "retired civil engineer" thing ever!
