My wife was in attendance.
Which is very polite and romantic, or, read differently, not at all an answer to the question posed.
It means @bhamv3 's wife was reading over his shoulder
The only time I can think of this (while sober) was when I was a freshman in college filming highlights of the school's volleyball team. Me and my friend were going to the game on the floor, and turns out we were walking through the same hall that the players use to get to the court. I also tend to have a bit of a "thing" for taller, athletic girls and surrounded by like 20 of them. I basically stopped moving because I was unable to process it.

@GasBandit is currently locked out of the board. He tried to get into the new cPanel to look at something and put in the wrong password too many times. We think his IP has been blacklisted. I have a ticket opened as we think it's at the host level.
Let’s post pictures of our phones with really low batteries!!!
My daughter sprained her knee in Gymnastics on Halloween, and she's starting to go back to gymnastics. She's not fully healed yet so she's not doing the high impact things, but she is terrified of doing anything that causes any discomfort because she's afraid of hurting herself, but I also know that using her knee is still going to hurt for a while until it gets used to being used again, and I also don't want her to quit things out of fear. She can do dance class mostly fine, so I'm not really worried about the hurting herself thing, since she's not doing anything high impact here past gradually trying to do round offs. But she's nearly 14, so it's a pretty big battle of wills to even get her to listen to me, much less believe me when I tell her that her knee being sore afterwards is part of the healing process. I'm not going to make her stick with gymnastics after this season, but at the start of this season I asked her several times if she wanted to do it this year and she said yes, and the money is spent, and I know that quitting out of fear is not the best idea, so bleeeeeeeeh.
So for anyone who orders from Grubhub, chances are you'll get MORE options given that I just got-A GRUBHUB DRIVER CREDIT CARD! I mention more options, as beforehand you could only order from places on the app, NOW it seems like their gonna copy Postmates'/Doordash's order and pay function. Next stop, getting rid of the god damned gamified ranking system that just makes working a pain!
Our son just said he didn’t like Star Wars. Dark times.
Execute order 66
One of the reasons we went to Disney without the kids is because I knew they would ruin Galaxy's Edge for me.
That's nuts. Now you're going to have to steam extra hours of eye candy tomorrow or else risk disappointing your viewer(s).

Honestly while I love Star Wars, I've given up on showing people it that haven't seen it. The original trilogy is kinda slow at points by modern movie standards and a lot of people just don't like it.
"a" = 1
"a couple" = 2
"a few" = 3
"some" = 4
"many" = 5+
I don't know why this is just how it's always been in our family.
...I'd say that qualifies.

Okay so this is a weird question. I’m making a new game show for my business. I think I have everything figured out...except the name.
Basically you have two teams. The first one up gets to guess the percentage of people answering “would you rather” type questions. The other team predicts whether the actual value is higher or lower. Whichever team wins gets a point and the pick of a category. We then play a karaoke song from that category and they get to guess the song, artist, or both. Points given out accordingly.
So it is a lot like name that tune, but I don’t want to call it that for copyright reasons.
What would you call this game?

... Wasn't there a Jackbox game that did exactly this?
I was right. Guesspionage.

Brainstorming isn't about editing, it's about coming up with as many ideas as possible so that they might inspire others.
I thought "Over Under Tune of Wonder" was the dumbest, myself.
