Making my football picks for the final week of the season. This week is always a challenge because depending upon the playoff picture, different teams have an incentive to play harder, and in other cases, to rest their starters, opening up the possibility of being beaten by a weaker team. Fortunately I muddled through it. There's no Thursday night game this week, so I've got a few days to set my fantasy line-up. So, I'll do that later. Tonight I need to make some headway on my reading. I've got two book clubs later this month, and one is going unusually quickly for that group, so my task is larger than usual. Thankfully the book the other group is reading is relatively short. Still, no time to rest.

Watching Mumkey Jones since it looks like most of his videos (well, most of the main channel videos, anyway) have been uploaded to the new site, and one's really striking me in particular:
The video was done as a spoof of a video he had recently done about Rich "Stupid Mario Brothers" Alvarez in much the same format, although that one did a pretty big overview of the Stupid Mario Brothers ("Rise" period.) That might be necessary to truly get it. So, here's the link.
And the sad thing is that recent events have come to light that make this video all the more surreal to watch:
- As a spoof of the controversy over Rich Alvarez allegedly stealing Dane Kevin Cook's girlfriend, we have Sheepover (Mumkey's girlfriend) running into the arms of his friend Assburger sometime in November 2018. In the real world, well, in that month, Assburger was arrested for domestic abuse and Mumkey had to be the one to call the cops.
- In the prelude for the section on his Elliot Rodger-themed amusement park, there's a mention of YouTube no longer monetizing videos about Elliot Rodger (hence the idea to make a park about it). Earlier this month, YouTube decided to put multiple strikes on his Elliot Rodger videos and the administration decided that, for the unforgivable sin of using extremely dark comedy to show (multiple times) that a spree killer who couldn't talk to girls and killed six innocent people because of it wasn't someone to look up to, he was no longer welcome on the platform.
Well, at least the controversy surrounding his suspension is getting so much press that it looks like he's nowhere near fallen.

I'll paint your house for american minimum wage, and do a damned good job, too.... while eating the cost of the paint.....and fix your stupid pipes as a bonus.... if you sign my immigration paperwork.
You just tell me your average gph and what speed, in mph (I'm no communist) that you want shit to leave your house...and we'll get you squared away on the cheap. I don't give shit about my kids going to college...I'll be happy if they don't end up killing puppies as a hobby.

I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

First off, the local district council paints my house FOC every five years. Secondly, I'd be happy to sign off on your immigration pw (for all the good it would do you).
