Hate globally, act locally!

Dan needs a buffer zone!

Dan's Mom

Danny! Have you taken your flintstones vitamin yet today? Don't give me that look, young man! Down the hatch!

He misspelled "chief."

Dan, just how smart and great are you?

Adam

How smart and great are you?

Dan Szymborski

12:57

Not very.

hscer

"Get off or [you're] fired!" doesn't sound like a question to me.

Dan Szymborski

12:57

He's got you there

Compliments to the chef

I am just requesting no overt political posts. You are correct that these set reader against reader.

Dan Szymborski

12:58

I think I keep it as mild as possible.

It's hard to not comment at all.

12:59

But as someone who tends, apart from generalized philosophy, to centrism and pragmatism, I am increasingly alienated from any of the political flame-theater that has become de rigeur in recent years

Makes me feel at times like I outlived a world in which I recognized. Which seems way more odd at 42 than it would be at 92.

Wouldn’t Ichiro just be the MLB translations of his NPB stats?

Dan Szymborski

1:00

Yeah, but it's fun!

re: Mariners don't want to advertise a competitor, but did you watch Dorktown's History of the Mariners? It was fantastic (better than the last dance imo) and I wish they'd do one for more teams

Dan Szymborski

1:00

I haven't!

Compliments to the chef

1:00

I think you you try to keep politics mild. I think you do post straight political posts that, IMO, belong in a different chat.

Dan Szymborski

1:01

I try to answer as many questions and comments as I possibly can.

Cat update please

Dan Szymborski

1:02

Well, Constantine has left after turning off my PC. I heard my mom enter my house about 15 minutes ago, so I'm assuming the other three are trying to get her to feed them early.

She feeds my cats early, leaves, and then *I* Have to deal with cats who think they're getting fed at noon the next day.

She's also left her car in my driveway, taken mine, and left me a note that her car isn't working and to bring it ot the mechanic

1:02

I do apologize, but I'm hella not mild and I'm hella political.

Dan Szymborski

1:03

Nobody needs to apologize for how they feel. I'm just outlining how *I* feel.

As far as slippers go, are you a slide-on/flip flop style guy or a moccasin style guy?

Dan Szymborski

1:03

I like moccasins

I don't like flip flop

because there's always a chance you might need to hurry and trying to hurry in flip flops is always a disaster waiting to happen.

1:04

I try to stay right next ot beaches and ideally wear nothing to the beach

SHOES that is. I'm clothed at all times.

Dbo

1:04

i think we should start referring to Jim Thome and Ken Griffey as White Sox legends

Dan Szymborski

1:04

Dodger legend Mookie Betts...

Martin Van Buren

1:04

I'm sorry, Dan, I never meant to derail your chat with things like political parties and OK.

Eric C

1:04

Should Billy Martin be in the Hall?

Dan Szymborski

1:04

Yes

Guest

It's true, political posts do set reader against reader. These chats are so serious and based in real life, that if one (listens to Perfect Strangers theme song again)
