Sitting courtside at Celtics game. I told RJ Barrett I bet his over rebounds and need him to go to work. He said how many do you need, and I said 5. He said I got you. That was 2 quarters ago. He has 1 rebound.

My girlfriend couldn’t believe that I’m playing golf today. She said, “you choose your golf course over me a lot, and your golf course doesn’t give you blowjobs.”. “True,” I said. “But it lets me play the back holes any time I want.”. We laughed. It was a good moment.

My girlfriend and I are playing board games with another couple. For teams, I suggested we swap girlfriends. I said “this is like swinging, except we won’t regret it tomorrow.”. No one laughed. They hated it. It’s not fun now.

If you meet a girl at a bar and she says “bet I can drink more than you,” she’s probably wrong. But if she says “I bet you $200 I can chug 16 ounces of room temperature Natural Light faster than you” and she has two friends filming behind her? She’s right.

I met Spike Lee at a Rangers game once. I told him I took a class on his films in college. He asked where (thank God) & I said Harvard. He askd if I knew Jeremy Lin. I said we took a science core together. Then he asked if Lin was really a virgin. I said I dunno & he said "damn.".

Every time I take a cab to the airport, I ask the driver where he's from. He'll say some faraway country. I'll name the capital, thinking it will impress him. It doesn't, and then we ride in silence. I really overestimated the value of memorizing capitals as a child.

While @franciscellis has used strong language in condemning the #UkraineWar and referred to a “potentate” as responsible for the conflict, he has so far avoided calling out #Putin by name or Russia as the aggressor.

I was at a bar last night and the manager knew who I was. They had a bucket of $1 Jell-O shots, and he brought me 6 on the house. Sometimes you have to stop to take stock of how well you’re doing. Three years ago, I’d be out $6 for those shots. Now, they’re a perk.
