You Know What's Going to Be Hilarious?

The reaction from San Jose fans when Drew Doughty plays over Dan Boyle.

 

Also, you know who's awesome?  James K. Polk.  Only president to ever fulfill every one of his campaign promises.  It's true.

I remember when that bum McKinley promised not to get assassinated. That dick.

Garfield, because he was a lefty, and he used his awesome powers to write Greek with one hand and Latin with the other. At the same time!

Too bad that power didn’t stop bullets.

I think that Garfield thing is an urban legend, because I heard the same thing about Washington.

Well, Garfield was actually a classics prof before he was prez, and composition was a huge part of that discipline back in the day, so I believe it. Washington might have had the skills via all the really aristo founding fathers being steeped in the stuff, but could he write with both hands?

I doubt it. I mean, that sounds like a difficult skill, and Washington seemed incapable of basic skills like lying. Sounds out of his league.

Blasphemy! His was a mind “as pure and as intelligent as this country can boast”!

Haha, that was just a shoutout to you, Niesy.

It’s probably not worth posting, but I just wanted to clarify that my quote above was definitely tongue in cheek. It’s from a very old Supreme Court decision that I had to read this semester. In no way do I personally deify George Washington.

God, I wish:
I. I hadn’t posted in the first place.
II. I weren’t in law school.

George Washington is awesome because he was picked for everything purely because he was the biggest and strongest guy in the room.

The West Coast is the Best Coast.

Oh yeah, I almost forgot — “I cannot tell a lie” always reminds me of this ep of Drunk History. Hee hee hee.

Whoa, are you seeing what I am seeing – Boyle and Doughty have the exact same goal and assist totals? Boyle did it in fewer games, but still both would be great to have on the team.

I’d take either of them over Shea Weber or Brent Seabrook – fuck those guys if Boyle doesn’t play.

Never go to the South for any reason.

Having Boyle set the table for Weber is a little insane. If only that could be an NHL tandem. I also saw him take a few shifts with MC Niedermayer.
