    Re: Uncommon Opinions

    Most of you know I spent three years working for the LSU baseball team as a member of the grounds crew, which is an extension of athletic facilities. I've assisted with the transition from basketball to gymnastics and that kind of stuff is extremely methodical to a point you wouldn't believe. A lot of facilities work is divide and conquer, but stuff like that is broken down to the minute.

    If you think all that's impressive, the conversion between baseball and football is much more complex:

    You could watch that five times and notice something different each time.

    Even better: building a baseball field in the Alamodome after a basketball game (and then tearing it down):

              Award Show season...I don't care about any one of them. I don't care what movie wins Best picture, or what the top song of the year is, or who gets voted best actor or anything like that.

                  I don't get it, if you don't care about this stuff how do you know what happened? Apparently there was some gaffe? I choose not to watch things I don't care about

                    It's a mistake so big it has people talking about it and it blew up social media. So even people like me who didn't watch a second of it still knows what happened.

                        They gave it the Steve Harvey treatment by calling La La Land as best picture and while they were up there giving their acceptance speech the production crew came out and said Moonlight had actually won.

                            This is more of an uncommon fact, but Thin Mints are not the best type of Girl Scout cookie. Yeah, I said it. You will just have to deal with the fact that the peanut butter ones are better.

                                It's not even close, really.

                                Thin Mints would be way better if was actual Junior Mints-style cream or even a layer of green mint somewhere in the damn cookie.

                                The Peanut Butter Patties are *by far* the best ones.
