Herbst leaving next year - people have wildly different opinions on the achievements of her term and what it means long term.

CV coming back this year - people have wildly different expectations on his impact, playing time and motives.

Gilbert is ready to go this year - people have wildly different expectations on his ability to contribute and success of his surgery.

People still care about old rock and roll singers and the royal wedding.

I love me some Boneyard.

But the lesson was civics! And you slept through all of it!
(And those who care about the Windsor Hillbillies, well, are you sure they weren't just visitors from WV?)

I'm not going to comment on the medical advice, but the legal advice I've seen given here by the lawyers - and I'll exclude my own from this analysis - has been very good.

I come here for the travel advice.

“I’d like to take a beach vacation somewhere in New England. Where should I go?”

“Tahoe!”

“I went to Peru in 1989...”

“Why would you go to a beach?”

and then dont forget storrsroars "I went to beaches before you guys even knew what beaches were"

I actually don't like beach vacations. I enjoy snorkeling on occasion but never saw the point in laying in sand and inviting skin cancer.

And you need to stop overworking a joke theme so hard. Let is rest for a couple of days, bring it back out on the weekend. Jokes get tired too, y'know.

I prefer reading the obscure OT Medical conditions that people's "friends" have and the absurd advice they receive from Boneyarders.

That and legal advice.

But it is the definitive authority for Connecticut pizza and razor blade use, so there's that.

I know I know. You told hipster jokes before we did.

This place is the best: Pizza, Arby's, beer, brain health, decoding recruits' twitter accounts, immigration attorney advice, gin, epic meltdowns, contract experts, bachelor parties, HVAC, Taylor Rooks...

Possibly the best synopsis of the BY I've ever seen.

Take away fast food from an aging hippie for a few weeks and boy they turn into nasty old men right quick.

But since it's obviously my disdain for jam bands/Dylan and whatever you deem as the "proper rock classics" I'm supposed to be enjoying that has gotten under your skin, let me ask you this:

Why did the Grateful Dead have two drummers?
In case one of them fell asleep.

Actually the two drummers sounding like sneakers in a dryer is more accurate and probably a better hipster joke. So step up your game son.

But that's not a joke.

What's the difference between a wookie girl on tour and a washing machine?

If you throw a load in a washing machine, it doesn't follow you around all summer afterwards.

That's a joke...

Now I'm starting to see why your protege SJ has such weak material.

Actually that meets every criterion of a joke.

And now you want to break out esoteric hashtags...

WTF is happening to you man, you used to be sharp as a tack.

Whelp I’m just gonna finish this with a page out of your book my brother ( because you are on my shortlist of favorite BY peeps)

For the joke to work the punchline has to have absurdity. It doesn’t. It’s reality.


I got the joke before you knew about it.

This. This is my favorite. Boneyarder & Boneyarder's legal careers are so lucrative they are now able to do their lawyering pro bono!

Obviously, you are new to the Boneyard.

We have jokes older than your references.

Watching storrs wreck you in this thread is like seeing a Mets era Willie Mays fail at a slider away.

I know I can be many things. ( and some of them off putting)

But am I prescient or what?
