Laff Riot 94: Love is a many-splendored motherfucker

10:53:10 AM Nastinchka: oh my god, it is a high school game
10:53:22 AM Swindle: Houston Nutt, continuing to go deep in the Fayetteville high playbook
10:55:05 AM Swindle: Okay, let's keep track: redzone calls.
10:55:12 AM Swindle: 1. Fumblerooski
10:55:16 AM Swindle: 2. Halfback pass
10:56:12 AM Nastinchka: This is fun!
10:56:28 AM Swindle: 3. false start
10:56:48 AM Swindle: 4. Snead plays grabbit
10:57:01 AM Nastinchka: statue of liberty
10:57:26 AM Swindle: 5. delay of game
10:59:09 AM Swindle: 6. Snead throws to invisible ghost of Archie manning open in deep left third
10:59:47 AM Swindle: 7. Fail Mary
10:59:48 AM Nastinchka: OK, it took me until 4 to realize you weren't listing what was actually happening
10:59:51 AM Nastinchka: it's that plausible

11:03:09 AM PB: OTTER!
11:03:24 AM PB: Or beaver! Something CUTE. On my balcony!
11:22:34 AM Nastinchka: OTTER OTTER OTTER OTTER OTTER (what is an otter doing on dry land on the second floor of a building? WHO CARES)
11:24:27 AM PB: Sending you camera phone picture of otter. Hard to see what it is, but trust me, it's a cute otter or beaver or something
11:31:36 AM Nastinchka: AWWW CUTE FURRY THING ON MY PHONE

9:46:06 AM Swindle: HA. Indiana's qb called for a late hit on an INT return
9:46:10 AM Nastinchka: LOLOL
9:46:21 AM Swindle: You threw the pick, and then you give them 15
9:47:08 AM Nastinchka: That's OUR play!
9:47:17 AM Nastinchka: I have to admire that

10:38:17 PM Swindle: I just said this to Peter, but this was Eagle Eye
10:38:33 PM Swindle: A disembodied female voice called Mike Riley and said
10:38:43 PM Swindle: "YOU HAVE TO BEAT USC OR YOU WILL DIE"
10:38:45 PM Nastinchka: There's not a lot of other explanation
10:38:59 PM Swindle: "They're controlling the offensive line, the secondary...it's uncanny."

9:48:08 AM Nastinchka: I would LOVE to see somebody following Nutt around filming him in 60 fps
9:48:11 AM Nastinchka: like a hummingbird
9:48:23 AM Swindle: fast!

6:24:31 PM Nastinchka: "Look at our records"
6:24:41 PM Nastinchka: LOOK AT THE GUY VOTING IN LINE WITH THE PRESIDENT 96% of the time!
6:28:41 PM Nastinchka: I'm sorry, was the question "recite your entire platform?" I stepped out for a drink
6:29:01 PM PB: I knew there was a reason I skipped all these during the primaries

9:53:31 AM Nastinchka: oh, for the love of
9:53:33 AM Swindle: They run the old Peyton naked boot
9:53:50 AM Nastinchka: the reason you call it naked is bc your qb looks like a fetus in a jar
9:53:56 AM Nastinchka: which is also why they named it after Peyton
9:54:18 AM Swindle: Officially nervous
9:54:47 AM Nastinchka: we're going to need synonyms for bat country before too long

10:27:15 AM Swindle: It's a shame you can't use the word "shitty" on network television.
10:27:28 AM Swindle: It would be so apt for that punt
10:29:03 AM Swindle: Our o-line is the stupidest o-line ever to o-lineerate
10:29:15 AM Nastinchka: I'ma stitch that onna pillow
10:29:27 AM Nastinchka: Or a sampler over the locker room door: "Bless this mess."

10:45:22 AM Swindle: Duck...duck....goose!
10:45:25 AM Nastinchka: tag!
10:45:31 AM Swindle: If you're going to go offsides, go big, son

4:25:31 PM Nastinchka: Marking calendar.
4:25:44 PM Nastinchka: Because holy hell, you are going to need either armed backup or a documentarian
4:27:22 PM Princess PrettyPants: maybe i shouldnt go
4:29:36 PM Nastinchka: I think you should wait till May like the plan says.
4:30:30 PM Nastinchka: Also, is lupus the thing that turns you into a werewolf? because it would really explain a lot.

10:48:29 AM Swindle: If they're actually in rhythm now, look for them to put Ole Miss through seven tortures in in the second half, each more perverse than the next.
10:48:42 AM Swindle: 'Fesser is in Clemson
10:49:38 AM Swindle: He said that if Mangino made a porno with Friedgen, he'd "have to watch it in a Lovecraftian spirit."
10:51:19 AM Swindle: You've been Gerg'd!
10:52:48 AM Nastinchka: it needs another syllable
10:52:51 AM Nastinchka: Gergx0red

6:40:17 PM PB: No - I was saying that to McCain: "We cannot have a losing failing thing that loses things that fail."
6:40:30 PM Nastinchka: notice the operative FAIL word FAIL
6:41:02 PM PB: This would be so much more interesting if there were producers who stamped large "FAIL" graphics across the screen when McCain talks.
6:42:02 PM PB: Like, when he says 'Maverick,' they bleep it out and show a picture of a dead ducklet. FAIL
6:42:20 PM Nastinchka: Don't bring the ducklets into this, sadist

11:08:08 AM Nastinchka: "If success doesn't come to you very quickly you get frustrated sometimes."
11:08:12 AM Nastinchka: >...are they talking about Syracuse?
11:08:29 AM Swindle: Yes
11:08:35 AM Swindle: I told you this was magic
11:11:37 AM Swindle: I love it when they catch Dave reading off the cheat sheet he keeps in his lap
11:11:52 AM Nastinchka: Life's simple pleasures

11:15:35 AM Nastinchka: Duke scores!
11:19:01 AM Nastinchka: DUKE PICK!
11:19:02 AM Nastinchka: WOOOOO
11:19:44 AM Nastinchka: Cutcliffe Second Half Adjustment Apparatus is quite operational
11:20:07 AM Swindle: Green laser; first down.
11:21:31 AM Nastinchka: Duke is bowl-bound.
11:21:33 AM Nastinchka: Write it down.
11:21:38 AM Swindle: I'm with you
11:21:58 AM Swindle: I call onside
11:22:35 AM Nastinchka: DUDE
11:22:39 AM Nastinchka: Duke touchdown
11:22:59 AM Nastinchka: That's no moon
11:23:02 AM Nastinchka: it's a space station

6:58:13 PM Nastinchka: KIss. KISS. KISS YOU FUCKING PEACOCKS
6:59:47 PM PB: The only thing that could rescue this is if a spirit-broken Sarah Palin bull-rushed the stage, screaming "STREEEEAAAAKKK!", drunk on pure corn liquor.
7:02:35 PM PB: Wazirostan: The New Afghanistan!
7:02:44 PM Nastinchka: Is that a board in Mario Kart?
7:02:52 PM PB: totally is
7:03:00 PM Nastinchka: KISS, GOD DAMN YOU BOTH
7:04:54 PM Nastinchka: oh my god peter he's so old
7:05:37 PM PB: Him + Palin = first time ever I don't cringe when people say, "I'm leaving if these two win."
7:05:48 PM Nastinchka: I hear ya
7:08:23 PM Nastinchka: achmehkwslfjhalksgahjad
7:08:47 PM PB: "As an aside, Jim, it's hard to say Achjemadjaezdjad with a softball sewn into your cheek."
7:10:17 PM Nastinchka: Johnny Mac on the mic like a vandal
7:19:28 PM Nastinchka: Russia is gonna be in soooo much trouble when its father gets home.

11:56:02 AM Swindle: I hate this offense.
11:56:04 AM Swindle: I repeate
11:56:10 AM Swindle: IN olde englishe
11:56:19 AM Nastinchka: yea, verily, motherfucker
11:56:34 AM Nastinchka: I almost feel bad for them, that's how bad it is
11:56:42 AM Nastinchka: This is very nearly tipping my hate index

7:24:25 AM Nastinchka: oh, man.
7:24:38 AM Nastinchka: I got up at 5:30 and jacked the air down even more cause it was like 85
7:24:44 AM Nastinchka: and now it's too cold to get out of bed
7:24:50 AM PB: I've done that before
7:24:51 AM PB: Many times
7:24:56 AM Nastinchka: and I need to be in the shower in six minutes if I want to be at work on time.
7:25:02 AM PB: Cover separation anxiety is paralyzing.
7:25:13 AM Nastinchka: I'm like, tryyyying to stick a leg out
7:25:19 AM Nastinchka: but it's just not happening.
7:25:23 AM PB: Be careful.
7:25:32 AM Nastinchka: COLD COLDCOLD PORCELAIN FLOOR
7:25:34 AM Nastinchka: fuck THAT
7:25:34 AM PB: You could try The Drape n Run move.
7:25:42 AM Nastinchka: no, comforter too heavy.
7:25:45 AM PB: Hmm
7:26:02 AM PB: You're stuck with a naked plunge then. Scary.
7:26:11 AM Nastinchka: *whimper*
7:28:00 AM Nastinchka: OW
7:28:09 AM Nastinchka: OK, I somehow managed to tweak my Achilles
7:28:11 AM Nastinchka: IN BED
7:28:13 AM PB: Wow
7:28:21 AM Nastinchka: It's a sign. Calling in sick.

11:57:50 AM Nastinchka: Duke 24, UVa 3
11:57:51 AM Nastinchka: haHA
11:59:10 AM Nastinchka: And Maryland ahead by 3!
11:59:22 AM Swindle: I called that one, at least
11:59:39 AM Nastinchka: turtlefearengeschmeltzsang
11:59:55 AM Swindle: Why? Because Tommy Bowden got a bitch mentality

5:34:31 PM Nastinchka: not any particular testament to my awesomeness
5:34:32 PM PB: Great greatness
5:34:34 PM Nastinchka: but I STILL GET IT
5:34:38 PM Nastinchka: [dance break]
5:34:40 PM PB: Congrats :)
5:34:56 PM Nastinchka: ...I just dapped myself.
5:34:59 PM Nastinchka: It wasn't planned.

12:01:21 PM Nastinchka: This Syracuse thing has to be my favorite.
12:01:27 PM Nastinchka: because not only did they lose again
12:01:34 PM Nastinchka: they gave it away in the 4th quarter
12:01:45 PM Nastinchka: It's like they find new ways to inflict pain on their fanbase
12:02:04 PM Swindle: The agony comes in new and awesome variations
12:02:17 PM Swindle: Speaking of, Dexter McCluster just ripped off a 50 yard td on us
12:02:26 PM Swindle: We're fucked.
12:02:35 PM Nastinchka: I'm....
12:02:39 PM Swindle: I'm sorry: that's 40 yards
12:02:40 PM Nastinchka: Seriously, I got nothing.
12:03:05 PM Nastinchka: I still don't think you'll lose.
12:03:10 PM Nastinchka: I don't really know why.
12:03:54 PM Swindle: The scoreboard says you are in error
12:04:12 PM Nastinchka: I just can't process this
12:04:17 PM Nastinchka: like a phantom limb
12:04:21 PM Nastinchka: Phantom Good Offense
12:04:55 PM Swindle: Greg Hardy has the right legally now to steal Terron Sanders car.
12:05:06 PM Swindle: He's been that dominant

12:47:57 PM 'Bus: How is Obama getting played like a fucking girl scout?
12:48:12 PM Nastinchka: How do girl scouts get played?
12:48:56 PM 'Bus: Old men catch them with their pants down, and then they lose the election and send the country spiraling ever further downwards.
12:48:59 PM Nastinchka: gross
12:49:16 PM 'Bus: I assure you I hadn't thought the metaphor through in advance.

12:13:48 PM Nastinchka: Here, I've summed up Vol Nation
12:13:54 PM Nastinchka: I just got a text from a buddy
12:13:56 PM Nastinchka: first of the day
12:14:07 PM Nastinchka: Simply reading: "[sigh]". It's not even kickoff yet.
12:14:20 PM Swindle: Powe miss tackle go boom
12:14:23 PM Swindle: Powe sorry

12:15:45 PM Nastinchka: 31-3 Duke
12:15:50 PM Nastinchka: Groh isn't even trying
12:16:03 PM Swindle: AHHdkjsdhfglksjdfhglksd
12:16:03 PM Nastinchka: there's a minute and a half to go and he's running the ball and running the clock down
12:16:06 PM Swindle: Joy!
12:16:14 PM Nastinchka: this is HILARIOUS
12:16:27 PM Nastinchka: they're eating clock just so they can get off the field
12:17:19 PM Nastinchka: o-ver
12:17:31 PM Nastinchka: AND THE STADIUM IS LIKE A FOURTH FULL
12:17:38 PM Nastinchka: Oh, they just panned up to the stands. SO SAD

12:50:09 PM PB: Why is Dancing with the Stars popular?
12:50:23 PM Nastinchka: Don't know, but I like that it is, even though I don't watch it myself.
12:50:33 PM PB: Never seen it
12:50:41 PM PB: Just doesn't seem like a show people would go for
12:50:51 PM Nastinchka: Me either, but every hour that America is captivated by ballroom dancing can only improve it.

1:14:52 PM Swindle: Gary is killing Crompton
1:14:58 PM Nastinchka: Week 2
1:15:07 PM Nastinchka: He was lashing the shit out of him last week, all week
1:15:18 PM Swindle: "I dunno if he's not supposed to throw the ball down the middle for a touchdown."
1:15:24 PM Nastinchka: I mean, it's warranted, technically, but holy shit he seems to hate him
1:29:01 PM Swindle: Does Jonathan Crompton use the same playbook?
1:29:16 PM Nastinchka: Wait, you think he can read?
1:29:22 PM Nastinchka: He got an alligator in spelling.
1:31:58 PM Swindle: Watching your game now.
1:32:08 PM Nastinchka: Welcome. We are still bad.
1:33:53 PM Nastinchka: And it's a mark of the season that I say that despite the fact that we're hanging in there.

1:40:15 PM Swindle: Gary Danielson does not need to call another vol game
1:40:39 PM Nastinchka: He's been after both of 'em all game, worse than last week
1:45:12 PM Nastinchka: Remember that time we kept throwing the goddamn ball?
1:53:21 PM Swindle: What astonishes me is the ability of Crompton to throw the ball to no one in particular
1:56:38 PM Swindle: I think Gary and Tennessee need a cooling-off period
1:56:52 PM Nastinchka: He is MIAOWsome
2:00:20 PM Nastinchka: "KEEP ENCOURAGING HIM"???
2:00:28 PM Nastinchka: Did Phil eat Bill Stewart?
2:00:40 PM Swindle: You wish
2:00:50 PM Nastinchka: It would solve one problem.

4:20:02 PM Nastinchka: WE'RE GOING TO DOLLYWOOD
4:20:03 PM Nastinchka: WE ARE
4:20:12 PM PB: I shouldn't argue with caps lock.
4:20:15 PM Nastinchka: No.
4:20:34 PM Nastinchka: Because it means I've got a subject in my maw and am shaking it like a puppy with a duck.
4:20:42 PM Nastinchka: So to speak.
4:20:48 PM PB: That's a complicated metaphor.
4:21:01 PM Nastinchka: sssshhhhh. Don't fight this.

2:45:07 PM Nastinchka: If you need me, I'll be over here, losing to Auburn.
2:45:18 PM Swindle: I still think you're going to win
2:45:29 PM Nastinchka: This is actually a little comforting.
2:46:26 PM Swindle: BTW: My mom just texted me, "WTF?"

3:00:34 PM Swindle: I think Katie Couric just elected Obama.
3:00:46 PM Nastinchka: I think she's taller than Jacquizz.
3:00:52 PM Swindle: And meaner
3:03:09 PM Nastinchka: Can't we import Carla Bruni instead?
3:03:12 PM Nastinchka: She's got better skin
3:03:39 PM Swindle: Yes, and likely a better understanding of policy.
3:03:54 PM Nastinchka: I love the moment at the end when Wolf says it's not her best answer and they cut to Jack rolling his eyes for like a millisecond

9:49:07 AM Nastinchka: (Autoreply) AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
9:49:11 AM Swindle: Did you step on a lego?

11:46:35 AM Nastinchka: and I think I should have stayed in bed
11:46:38 AM Nastinchka: because so far:
11:46:44 AM Nastinchka: 1. Our office is flooded from all the rain
11:46:49 AM PB: ugh
11:46:49 AM Nastinchka: 2. Including our VAULT
11:46:54 AM PB: eek
11:46:59 AM Nastinchka: 3. Mike's car got broken into
11:47:13 AM PB: uh oh
11:47:14 AM Nastinchka: 4. We've been questioned by the police because a neighbor woman has gone missing
11:47:20 AM PB: !!
11:47:31 AM Nastinchka: 5. And Creepshow is wandering around the building with a mop, sobbing uncontrollably and no one knows why.
11:47:41 AM Nastinchka: So on the whole, it's actually sort of entertaining.
11:47:52 AM PB: i agree with your assessment: go back to bed
11:48:03 AM Nastinchka: But it's one of those days where I'm kinda afraid to go outside for fear I'll be crushed by a falling anvil.

6:55:38 PM Nastinchka: I didn't notice they did the Georgia endzones in black too. How tawdry.
6:55:54 PM Swindle: Yes. They're tacky, horrible people.
7:20:25 PM Nastinchka: Think our collective malevolence doomed this game?
7:20:32 PM Swindle: Yes.

How could you doom the Dawgs after we treated you so well in Tempe?!?!?!

Posted by: Sparrow at September 30, 2008 09:14 AM

If you read my picks last week, you know I was pulling for Georgia, but after the events of the day we were all in so much pain we wanted everyone else to be dragged down with us. Mission accomplished. S'go Vandy!

Posted by: Holly at September 30, 2008 09:19 AM

I don't believe Mike Teel's ever been called for a late hit after one of his picks, but he's got 8 games left, I have faith.

And if it happens at home, yes, I will boo him. That probably means I'm an ass, so be it.

Posted by: Devin McCullen at September 30, 2008 12:42 PM

Fair enough. I know you picked the Dawgs in the first place, I'm just trying to find a way to displace some of the heartache. And rage, don't forget the rage...

Posted by: Sparrow at September 30, 2008 04:24 PM

Does Hardy have to come steal Terron Sanders' car himself or can he send somebody else? There's only 4 or 5 of us in North Mississippi can read maps all that good. Well. Good. Good and well. Well and good. Let's go with properly.

Who said that?

Last time I went to Dollywood, there was a live-action Hee Haw review every night in Pigeon Forge. Just sayin'.
