I'm almost done with the first season but I feel like I'm lost the entire time with the timeline jumping.

Yup, you're definitely not alone there. As I said it's pretty damn clunky at times.

Here's something I found when I first watched it that helped clear up any lingering questions I had:

Breaking down The Witcher’s complicated, crisscrossing timeline

For some bonus points, read the neckbeards in the comments to see how stupid we are for not getting it all 100% on the first pass. We big dummies.

"My 10-years old son got everything without my help." - actual quote from a liar who is having his 10-year-old watch shit way too mature for him. Lol who are these people and what made them like this?

The Athletic was acquired by the New York Times.

I'm feeling a little skeptical about this.

I'm afraid to ask why.

2nd Witcher season was great, a lot more cohesive. I've played the games and read a few of the books, my wife has read them all, so we went into it kind of having an idea already what was going on. I can definitely get the first season being real confusing.

It's hard to imagine the NFL can recover from all the boycotts.

Oh Dang!

I wonder how much of the rest of that 25 is college football.

because I know like OSU-Michigan was WAY up there. Michigan-Michigan State way up there. Michigan-Georgia Orange Bowl
Iron Bowl has to be, Red River Shootout maybe.

that’s why Michigan always gets the benefit of the doubt from the NCAA. That winged helmet is a f***ing money printer

Wonder no more! Because the picture actually includes all the college football games. 7 of the 100 are college football. The highest one ranked 43.

A parade... with balloons attached to strings... is one of the most watched things of the year???

Old people. They love parades and Fox News.

The Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade is a tradition for sooo many American families. Including mine when I was growing up. Not really sure why, other than the idea that tradition is just peer pressure from dead people. I always avoided it. Watching parades on tv is almost as mind-numbingly boring as watching fireworks on tv.

An early birthday gift.

An early birthday gift.

Still pissed that my friend booked his band years ago. Had no clue who McCarty was. After the fact he tells me he played a gig with a hockey player, Darren McCartney.

Anyone else super excited for the Legend of Vox Machina???

No.

Largely because I don't know what that is.

Has anyone watched Yellowjackets? Great horror show with lots of 90s nostalgia.

 

[Bench]

No.

I didn't know either. Looks like it's an animated Dungeons and Dragons campaign from Critical Role, a group that has a large following doing campaigns for viewers.

I've tried to watch live DnD sessions in the past but always ended up falling asleep or bored out of my mind watching them. So I guess even with my extreme nerdism I have stuff I bounce off.

The animated show is probably a better watch (for me) given the structure and I enjoy adult oriented animation so I'll give it a look.

I was interested in seeing it but Showtime is like the one streaming service I don't have, and I have way too many, so I just miss the stuff on there.

FedEx botched yet another parcel delivery. This time, at least, it was delivered to the right building but the driver cannot tell the difference between 4 & 9. I must live on the test route or something. Absolutely ridiculous.

FedEx sucks.

It might because of the things that I've ordered that use them, but they always seem to require a signature, and I just have them shipped to my work address now.

Otherwise, they attempt to deliver like a ninja, when I just never seemed to be available.

I call that the Tooth Fairy strategy. Sneak in and get away before anybody has a chance to ask any questions.

My oldest has stacks and stacks of books piled next to his bed making it nearly impossible for the tooth fairy to make a deposit.

Yep. Nothing like navigating an American Ninja Warrior course and then holding your breath when a light sleeper stirs. #ThingsYouDoForYourKids
