- Dear Alabama: If your hold on faith is so tenuous that a few spandex stretches can overcome it, maybe you're just not as faithful as you think? - Beryllium May 21, 10:05 1

  - It's a weird situation. I have the same employer, I'm just at a different school. - Volnelk May 21, 09:39 2
    - This is slightly weird for me to read as our systems most be different - Reagen May 21, 09:55

    - your needs, pal -- nm - mud May 21, 09:05

  - I mean forget high school at that point. -- nm - Reagen May 21, 08:52
- Wow. So, they've been absent every session since then? -- nm - zunk xometimes May 21, 08:45 5
  - Yup. One kid kept sending me "so I'm working on assignments and I'll get them to you next week" emails every month. - Reagen May 21, 08:47 4
    - Did he copy his parents on to any of his emails? -- nm - Diva May 21, 09:32 1
      - I don't think so but I've been in touch with the parent - Reagen May 21, 09:58
    - Ordinarily they'd have been withdrawn months ago but with COVID we can't punish for non attendance this year. -- nm - Reagen May 21, 08:48 1

Looking at my 5PM DTL game. I'm giving up 52.3 points per game. My opponent is giving up 56.4 - This game may wind up in the 40s. -- nm - Dano May 21, 08:21 5

  - I'm going to try something crazy against my next opponent. - Barontronic May 21, 08:51 2
    - Matchup considerations definitely matter. -- nm - Dano May 21, 08:52 1
      - Well that worked pretty well. Tight game most of the way, but he went on a 20-3 run late and buried me. -- nm - Barontronic May 21, 09:30

  - You're just holding out for the alternate teal version. -- nm - Barontronic May 21, 08:09 2
    - My thoughts on all this in a nutshell: - JaxSean May 21, 09:16 1
      - He'll have like a 2td game early because they'll force it, but finish with like 150 yds on the season. - Reagen May 21, 09:22

  - That was a hard one for me. - sycor May 21, 07:38 2
    - You mean you haven't seen the movie Tyson Spider? -- nm - Dano May 21, 07:48
    - It cheats on the rebus rules a bit. -- nm - Reagen May 21, 07:39
- Guesses -- (edited) - znufrii May 21, 07:33
- I can't get #7 - JaxSean May 21, 07:28 8

I think New York requires disclosure of top SuperPac donors in ads. This Yang one is....well..... -- (link) - ty97 May 21, 07:07 1

- Robocop. -- nm - Diva May 21, 07:38

- Predator came out on June 12. Lost Boys on July 31. Robocop on July 17 and FMJ on June 26. So, for this to be true, it has to be at least July 31. - oblique May 21, 07:17 1

- Anything but Full Metal Jacket is the wrong answer. Though Robocop is a masterpiece. -- nm - mafic May 21, 07:04
- Lost Boys -- nm - Pippy May 21, 06:51
- At the time, probably Lost Boys. As a time traveler, FMJ. -- nm - Reagen May 21, 06:49
- I know I saw Lost Boys in the theatre -- a rare event for me at the time -- so I'll go with that. -- nm - Barontronic May 21, 06:47
