This is why I'm gonna miss big-city livin' when I move back out to the sticks next month. The local cable company is literally hosting a wine and cheese reception in the lobby of the condo building next week to encourage us all to sign up for premium services. Where else do you see this kind of ****?
To quote the famous 20th century philosopher Eric Cartman; I'm, like, seriously, here.
As a former radio guy who was once offered a line of coke by George Clinton in the green room at KIIS-FM in LA about twelve years ago (I politely declined), I am ashamed and embarrassed that I didn't recognize that one.
On a wholly unrelated note, I'm about 1/3 of the way into the Mother of All Expense Reports right now. I haven't filed a single one since I started working at WGN, and staring at the mountain of receipts on my desk makes me sad. They're all tediously small (like $20-$50 each) but we're easily talking about $4k of unreimbursed expenses here in total. And to think that I wanted to go downtown for a cheezborger today...

My internet service is fiber optic, and they don't charge outrageous prices. It's cheaper than the local cable or satellite packages by about 50% It sells itself.

I had you pegged as the highest probability of knowing what that was. I was disappoint. But 76 is getting back there; I hadn't even purchased my first album yet. Which, for the record, was Kool and the Gangs Celebration. On cassette, no less. Only place I could play it was in my father's then brand new 81 Sedan DeVille. Which was diesel. No power, but 30+ mpg in an enormous vehicle. And, it would lay a smoke screen when you floored it. The vehicle was in serious need of a turbo.
But I digress. Round 2. This one is probably more difficult, but the theme continues.

Whatever algorithm FB uses to decide what to advertise to me has been going off the rails a lot lately. This morning, it wants me to buy military-themed pouches of flavored coffee grinds at 7-11, as an alternative to chewing tobacco.
Dafuq combination of things did I ever type / click on to produce that result?
Serious question: why does a normally functioning T-800 Infiltrator require a torque wrench? How is it not able to sense the amount of force which it is applying to the handle of the ordinary socket wrench which it is already holding? Swapping it out for a tool designed to overcome a basic inadequacy in the human arm seems oddly and unusually inefficient for this machine.
Out of all of the plot-holes in the Terminator series, this one bothers me almost as much as how, at the end of T2, when they "destroy" the two Terminators by tossing / lowering them into a crucible of molten metal, nobody bothers to think about the fact that after all the wacky **** that's happened in there, a reasonable factory manager would likely order a metallurgical analysis of the material in question, which would reveal small traces of futuronium in the batch. leading to a repeat of the Dyson Incident a few years later.
I was wearing shorts and sandals at the time. My bad.
I had to put my bike down many years back. Helmet got into a fight with a granite curb. My legs hurt again just reading about you.
Over here many states allow "no helmets" except if a child under xx years. I was getting gas the other day and there was a young girl (17ish) riding a fairly fast Japanese bike with her younger sister on the back (10ish). Older girl no helmet + shorts and bikini top. Younger sister helmet + shorts and t-shirt.
I guess some parents just don't give a ****...
I gave up motorcycles 15yrs ago. Too many stupid drivers around.

Hope you heal up quick.
I always have my helmet on.
Open face and all, but still a helmet.
And, I am completely healed already.
It was just some light bruises from a three point landing.
