Holy hell, nicely done. I vaguely remembered having seen something like this on a tv show but more than a decade ago.

I was sort of watching, albeit in a bar with friends so...

But I agree, looked like a good start! I wasn't a huge fan of Lekerimaki on the 3rd line but if that line can also be a scoring line then maybe we can overcome our top end talent deficit with a well rounded offense and a solid D/goalie.combo.

Also, unsure if you're a highlights person but Chytil's first goal is one of the silliest ones I've seen in years.

What are you counting so “accurately,”

If you look at the actual post you're commenting on, you should be able yo figure it out, I have faith in you Bob!

Are you sure you're responding to the comment you think you are? Maybe double check?

[-] MyBrainHurts@piefed.ca 2 points 21 hours ago

As usual, the best jokes are in the comments. (Though goddamn I chuckled at the meme.)

If Norway just created a Noble Prize, would he notice the difference? And if you surprised him with it in person, no one could ever point out that it wasn't the Nobel prize as trump can't stand to ever be wrong so he'd say that's the one he really wanted all along.

Problem solved, someone can nominate me for the second Noble prize.

That's literally the opposite of the point to which you are responding.

Ahhh, good know, thanks! I've added the appropriate tag. (A groovy feature I did not know piefed had until today.)

It's more that the answer makes no sense in the context of the post, but sure!

Ehhh, to each their own. I was in those classes, fully separated streams. No idea why you'd assume having a more interesting class would nix social development. (You can't learn to socialize if the teacher doesn't have to slow down?)

Fully wide range of outcomes but a lot of the kids with the potential went and realized it. Sure, not all of us did but from my small circle one's on the second highest court in Canada, one's set up a reasonably famous company, one's a cardiac surgeon etc.

You've spent almost 20 minutes randomly commenting in this thread, surely you have something better to do?

Not the greatest pic but one of my happiest. This elderly gal had seizures about a year ago and has been on some pretty heavy meds that gave her trouble with big jumps etc. So, she hasn't felt comfortable going to some of her favourite perches (I can only make so many ladders etc.)

Anyhow, vet said she's doing really well on her meds and we could lower the dosage. We're on the second lowering and she is much less stumbly and for the first time in 2025 has felt comfortable enough to go back to one of her favourite little nooks.

When I saw her there, my smile nearly broke my face.

I play medium tier co-ed soccer, have for the last dozen years or so. I just hit 40, am slowing down and taking longer to recover from injuries. I know my time at a fun sprinting competitivish level is coming to an end but... Sure, I'll miss the new dope friend aspext of it but equally importantly, 3 nights a week for years, I've been so happy to play and for a few hours a week the world, the future, politics, none of it mattered, all that mattered was stopping the bad guys from putting a ball in the wrong place and hopefully making it go to the right place (I'm defence, that half of the field is up to the other 6)

I dunno. Hoped maybe one of you has had to do this before and can share some thoughts. (I just had my foot clipped pretty bad, know I'm out for a few weeks but just came back off another injury etc...)

Edit: Goodness gracious, you folks are all so kind and supportive. Thanks so much, I'm definitely feeling less dejected and much more hopeful about the next stage of living an active and wild life.
