Get up with the sun, run all your errands, and retreat back inside before the outside world gets too peopley. I’m not alone in this, right?!

Call me a boomer for this take but the biggest thing I want from the schedule release is as many 1:00 games for my team as possible

In 2004, I was a bartender at the Cask 'n Flagon next to Fenway Park. I'll never forget what this series was like in Boston. Down 3-0, everyone in Boston said, "The curse is real, maybe next year." Down 3-1, everyone said, "Well, we were bound to win one." Heading into game 6, the city started to feel different. The series was 3-2, and everyone knew no one had ever come back from a 3-0 hole. Especially not the cursed Red Sox. Still...maybe? There was no social media back then; everyone watched the same thing at the same time. It was one of a handful of truly shared social experiences I've been a part of. "Where are you watching the game?" When they won game 6, people started to believe it was destiny. Every single bar and restaurant was showing the game, and people came out of their homes to watch it in public spaces, hoping to be part of something historic. French restaurants, coffee shops, and any place with a TV became a packed sports bar. I was behind the bar for Game 7. The game was played at Yankee Stadium, but the bars next to Fenway were at capacity for hours before the game. I've never been in an environment like that since; the tension and the excitement, the "what if we actually do this?" People hung on every pitch. When they made the final out just after midnight, the place exploded. People celebrated, thousands came down to the Fenway area and ran through the streets. I watched the broadcast show people running through the streets as they ran past the bar's windows. No phones, no selfies, no Instagram, just people living in the moment. Everyone on that team has a special place in Boston sports history. Whenever I see this video, I'm reminded of how incredible sports can be sometimes.

I don’t know much, but I know this: the older you get, the faster the number of things you’re willing to wait in line for approaches zero.

why do porn sites have a “share to” button like who watches porn and thinks my brothers and parents would really enjoy this

Gen X rule: No matter what a bar’s called now, you will always refer to it by the name it had when you first started drinking there.

@Photomusicrock Shouldn’t he have security?

James Hetfield with his fiancée, Adriana Gillett arrived at Eleftherios Venizelos Airport in Athens! Metallica's first concert of 2026 is this weekend!

There’s no such thing as being polite at a 4-way stop. If it’s your turn, fucking go.

Narcissists don't apologize, they just pretend it never happened.

True! 💯 😢

Went to Ticketmaster right at 4:00 when Sixers tickets “went on sale”. The CHEAPEST seat for Sunday was $348. There’s no such thing anymore as “tickets go on sale at X o’clock.” It’s instantly a resale market. Everyone at @Ticketmaster belongs in jail.

If you’re a man driving a jeep wrangler with 20+ rubber ducks on your windshield, you shouldn’t have the right to vote.

Estamos vivendo um período em que a pessoa inteligente precisa permanecer em silêncio para não ofender os ignorantes.

Weird how the future of democracy always depends on liberals getting their way.

@KTrain939913 Vince is such a lazy singer. I thought it was something recent because he’s gotten older but he’s doing it here 20 years ago.
