Completely Non-FF Thoughts

[averagejoe]

@averagejoe @Trudem, et al - - Maybe it just too much 'reality' TV featuring younger pretty people, but I've observed a troubling trend in the way people converse verbally. There are two words in particular that are way overused and/or used incorrectly - those being 'like' and 'literally'. It reminds me of valley girl talk and just drives me crazy at times. I find myself counting the number of times both words are used and the context in which they are. Seems younger (millennials) people are unable to complete a single sentence without one or both in it (and often multiples).

Perhaps it's just an old man's view of the world but I rarely see anything ever written in that manner, so why do people choose to speak that way? If it's an effort to sound intelligent it's sure not working. So, like, literally, you know, like, what are, literally your thoughts ??

I don't want to mention names, but a certain family member (who is much older than a millennial) begins nearly every story with the phrase, "I don't know if you know this or not, but..."

Makes me wish hockey was more relevant, or that NFL free agency phone calls were televised...although sometimes, I do enjoy filling out and following brackets that I have ZERO clue about

Edited...I haven't had any luck on brackets since whatever year it was that Gonzaga started to become a thing. Cuz they had a name I thought sounded cool, I picked them into the elite 8. Ever since then, my brackets are hammered dogshit after the first round

Dumb move on Roddy's part...regardless of wether Watson did or didn't do anything wrong.


My only question thus far is...why are these civil lawsuits, and not criminal complaints? I hate doubting accusers, but it's hard not to wonder why it's about money, and not justice?

The timing of it is weird and now the lawyer says its up to 22 different women. Timing seems so skeptical but they absolutely deserve to have their story heard and have it investigated.

So if Fox Sports hires someone like Peyton Manning or Drew Brees to do commentary and analysis, that shouldn't both him either...they didn't just hire his replacement or anything.
