Sorry if this has been done before, but I didn't see a thread. Tim made a comment in the whistleblower thread about how his perception is that many of our regular PSF posters are nightly or otherwise very-frequent viewers of nightly "cable news".  This struck me a little bit and raised a...

So, my next-door neighbor is a bit a recluse, bit of a loner.  Maybe 70-75 years old, lives alone, retired, very infrequent visitors, no family that I'm aware of other than his sister who stops by every so often, just kinda keeps to himself.  He's friendly enough, I'll see him once every 2...

Pretty self-explanatory.  I had a similar poll for the Star Wars film when it was all anyone would talk about.  Seems like right now this show is all anyone talks about.  Interested in the FFA's viewing habits. Note - if you have not seen the show but plan to binge-watch and catch-up on the...

I know you old folks like to #### on millennials so here's some good fodder, an upcoming two-week series of articles from The Guardian. The headline piece is titled "Revealed: the 30-year economic betrayal dragging down Generation Y's income".  Some high points:

Nice run from Tyrod after a disastrous Quigley punt into the wind.

For the love of god, can't someone get these poor kids a safe space or two? http://www.nytimes.com/2015/12/22/us/oberlin-takes-culture-war-to-the-dining-hall.html?_r=0 Additional reading: http://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2015/12/the-food-fight-at-oberlin-college/421401/

Seems like the hype is crazy right now. Curious on the FFA's viewing habits.

Apologies in advance for the long post. Some backstory: My aunt (my dad's oldest sister - we'll call her Aunt A), uncle, and cousin live in a rural town about 60-75 minutes away from where my parents live. I do not see them very often, usually only on major holidays, Thanksgiving, Christmas...

Let's talk about these three cities. A fellow FBG ( :oldunsure: ) and I will be in these cities in 3-4 weeks. 3 nights in Prague, 4 nights in Berlin, and 4 nights in Amsterdam. To my knowledge, we have no plans, other than possibly a soccer game in Prague if I can figure out how to buy them...

Shot-in-the-dark question here but I will keep it relatively brief. I have a history of shoulder instability going back about 10 years now. I had an arthroscopic surgery in 2006 and an open reconstruction in 2008. I went to the doctor today after a recent dislocation and he informed me that...

Simple question which has been a point of debate between some people at work today. Do you, in your personal definition, consider baseball to be a "contact sport"? Note that this is not a debate on the merits of baseball, whether you enjoy baseball, etc. Just a simple question - does baseball...

We are talking about this - Business Networking International I have been approached by a friend/business colleague who is trying to set up a BNI group locally. He is a new-ish financial planner who is trying to build a book of business; I am a CPA. My understanding is that each of these...

A friend and I are loosely considering a visit to London this summer to visit a friend who is currently living there temporarily. Nothing has been planned yet, but London would be the home base, so to speak. I know there is plenty to see in London that would give us a few days of sightseeing...

Go?

My girlfriend and I live on the bottom floor of a fairly large house built in 1871. There are 2 apartments upstairs...my brother lives in one, and an unrelated woman lives in the other. Our entire apartment has plaster ceilings. There are little cracks here and there but nothing ever...

Anyone? Can't imagine there's too many other extreme sports fans here, but figure I'll put it out there. Didn't see any threads on it after a search.

Is this threadworthy? I don't know, but, hell, I've been drinking. I used to consider myself a big baseball fan, serious fantasy player, etc. Over the last 5-6 years, my interest has slowly waned, to the point where last year I only watched probably less than 9 innings TOTAL of the entire...

This is going to be our attempt at a manual World Cup fantasy game. Derek and I have discussed briefly scoring and roster requirements. I know Kupcho was interested as well. Players: 1. Steve Tasker 2. Derek245583 3. Kupcho1 4. boubucarow 5. PIK95 6. cheese 7. DetroitFan 8...

Any other lacrosse fans here? NCAA, professional, outdoor or box lacrosse....any fans? Any players? Former players? I know I can't be the only fan here.
