How do you know about.....?  Me, FBG

How did I know to negotiate with DTV?

How do you know about Kodi?

How do you know dentists like to dump on female chests?

How did someone pick you up in a ferrari in chicago?

Etc

 
Sitting in a bar drinking a tequila & soda -- "Yeah I came in because they have awesome t-shirts here. I'm on this fantasy football message board and we do a t-shirt exchange every year."

:mellow:  

 
No, of course not. No one ever regains consciousness and wanders around a Super Bowl party in his underwear, with a bottle of barbecue sauce in his hand. Never happens.

Seriously guy.  Just at my sisters house on Friday.  Get a fire stick there on Saturday.  Load kodi and skin.  

You think she not going to ask how I can get her free movies in 10 minutes?

 
This morning I told my business partner that I was Shuked as to why a particular project wasn't completed yet.

It didn't phase him. I guess it's common nomenclature now.... 

Also, when people ask where I get my news I tell them from my fantasy football message board. 

 
I hired a 401k advisor on the recommendation of a irl good friend.  I canned the guy and set it up better mostly because @wilked 

I have hired MT for contract lawyer work.

And did I mention chet picked me up in a ####### ferrari.

My wife forgot to take the trash to the curb so it didn't get hauled off this week. She thought I should have noticed her mistake and done it.

I told her to point to the shirt.

 
Every time I start listening to new music out of my wheelhouse, people start wondering why, and I start explaining that there are these music "drafts"...

eta* Come to think of it, when I start using the word "wheelhouse."

Not sure about weird, but at the end of our weekly meetings I started reading Greg's 10 trivia questions to everyone and had then right down the answers. Whoever got the most right got a 10 dollar gift card to Starbucks, Tim Horton's or a place like that of their choice. 

I have been asked how doI come up with these questions.

The t shirt thing is real. I've been stopped multiple times in my Gluek's shirt and at first I have no clue what the #### they are talking about. Then I have to explain the tshirt exchange and they back away slowly.

Wife: Where did this Michigan beer come from?

Me: the innernet.

 
Yes

Like explaining a shirt that says there is a BBQ join in New Orleans that wins friends, but not with Salad...... and you haven't been to New Orleans in years.........

or telling my one son that so and so is going to win a particular UFC fight because a guy from FBG said so.

My boss asked where the latest reports were - I told him to PM Shuke.

 
I'm well past any of this being weird.

I had to explain to my coworkers that the creep who printed off the Russian bride cheatsheet (with photos and notes) was me, because I was doing a draft on a message board. It's been all downhill since.

 
Every single time I have a question about something, is this fence price ok, what's the best underwear, how to set up kodi, what places to visit when we travel, my wife inevitably asks, "did you ask your footballguys?"

I've had similar experiences. Telling friends and family that I'm listening to dozens of songs that feature the accordion because Mr. CIA chose Squeezebox for Eephus' Genrepalooza music draft on a fantasy football message board always goes over real well.  

 
Because of the NHL playoff thread....  I bought a Preadtors T shirt and wore it at poker tournaments in Vegas during the Finals.   Many asked if I was a Preds fan, I said no, I lost a bet and had to wear it.  Had to wear it yesterday and my daughter came over and was like WTF are you wearing that?  Just said "message board."  (I'm a huge Ducks fan and hate the Preds)

And while trying to fall asleep Saturday night in the 90 degree heat while camping in the middle of Idaho, I read my wife every post in the "laziest thing" thread.  I then proceeded to relate that thread to everything I did Sunday.

Wierd...is sleeping in @Ned's basement on an air mattress and having 8 Tom Brady posters watching me all night. I swear their eyes were moving!
Oh c'mon now, it's only 1 life sized fat head of the GOAT.

I strategically placed the head of the bed directly below his nuts for a reason, though.

Similar for me, except my wife says "did you ask your message board "friends"?" sarcastically emphasizing "friends."  I feel slightly insulted.

Same with me but she calls it the "nerd board."

My wife refers to them as my "football buddies".  And she does air quotes when she says "buddies".

My wife too, except you guys are collectively my "football forum". And, she actually likes you guys and thinks you're all smarter than me because when something comes up that I'm not sure about, she tells me to come ask all of you.

 
I had to explain to my wife why I am supporting Chance for Hope with my Amazon Smile purchases instead of a local charity...

Greg's trivia made me a more interesting person and a blast at parties.
