    But, Andrew, you're forgetting about the fact that you could be carrying a snaffle bug that day, thus negating any attempt by the opposition to scupper your attempts to use the flanderry to sideswipe the trod and catch the bletch. It's very easy win the entire garnflow when you just do that.

     

    I remember the days when real witches and wizards would play for the love of the game. Those kids with their weird hair, tattoos, and performance enhancing potions... they just don't play the game the right way anymore. All flash, no fundamentals.

    Hey everyone I know this forum is mainly about discussing either:

    • Erotic tool-time fan fiction
    • How we've used the handbook to pull one over on the Hollywood Elite
    • The occupations of our fathers (only if they happen to be a boat captain)

    But I've got a pretty rando q about podcasts. That question being, anyone know any good ones for following the current events and the news? I know a google search could have probably given me the answer I wanted in the time it took me to write this post, but I think of you all as taste-makers, and I'm too lazy to do that other thing.

     

     

     

    I don't listen to any news podcasts, but the twitter is a pretty decent way to get close to realtime info and links to quality reporting. That is if you follow journalists. Most of the folks I follow are either academics or frontline journalists. If you find a few voices that seem reasonable you can usually expand from there to pull in other interesting perspectives. Those I follow are fairly biased towards the Africa/national security side of things, but feel free to browse @houstonshearon if that is helpful.

    Hey Handbook Heads, I'm headed out on tour in a few weeks and I'm going to a bunch of places I've never been before.

     

    Let me know if you book a gig in Atlanta.

     

    Also, I just finished the Reality Show Show..... I really enjoyed hearing HH be created over 39 WONDERFUL episodes. I really, really wish that it was still going as I would love to hear them break down Britain's Hardest Grafter. A show where poor folks compete against each other for money. It's already being described as 'poverty porn'.

    I'm kinda new here, how do we usually get to 18 pages? Does somebody want to argue with me?

     

    In the immortal words of King Arthur, this is a silly place, but unlike Camelot you should come here! The only read drama is around here involves the name of the poster who was first. It's a real 'will they' (accept me)/'won't they' (stop asking him to change his name). So far the consensus seems to be 'no' on all counts.

    Hey, I discriminate very harshly based on a secret set of criteria known only subconsciously by A Bear and probably BoScout cause that dudes a friggin genius and I think he can see inside my soul.

     

    That said, if anyone does manage to guess my secret formula then I will award you with one of my much-talked-about "likes".

     

    I believe it might pull from the same source that Hardwick and Sean use to award POINTS! Meaning, once that code is cracked figuring out dark matter will be a breeze.

    Holy Shit. I had no idea Hayes was possibly in his 70s and Sean was well over 100. Their youthful energy and playful spirits really make them seem so much younger.

     

    Ep Highlights:

    - Acknowledgement that the real best of episode was everything they've ever done.

    - 'gap toothed fucking buffoon.... who I like"

    - the extensive mocking of 'I was influenced by David Letterman' pieces last week by guys like Scott Aukerman

    - surprise guests of Lauren Lapkus and a Wild Horses of talking loud.

    - 'somehow making a list proprietary'

    - ANNNNNNNNNNNND PROVERSION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

     

    Going to throw it out there. Choose your real name and face, because it is infinitely more satisfying to hear than something like, oh, LilacThunder.
