Grandma's 5 Questions for 7/24/20

[Deleted User 289]

TGIF. Maybe.

1. I am confident I am in the minority but I kind of like the current name of the Washington NFL franchise - Football Team.
On a scale of 0-100 (0 being the worst name of all time and 100 being the best name of all time) rate how you feel about the name for the Washington NFL franchise.

2. These shoes (see pic and link below) went on sale today. EXTREMELY limited quantities and EXTREMELY desired.
The last pair in my size sold for $1,227 + tax and shipping on the secondary market.
Retail they are $110 plus tax and shipping.
My question is would you even pay the $110 AND WEAR THEM?

3. If you could have any job in the world what would you choose to do?

4. Would you say you sweat more, the same, or less than the average person of the same sex as you are?

5. What is something fun you are planning on doing this weekend?

This is bullshit. It’s only 2 questions. /ban

3. What happened to questions 4 and 5?

[Deleted User 289]

Sorry kids! Was testing to see if the photo would post and thought I could delete my post right away.
Had to take a phone call so I was delayed in the deletion/edit.

P.S. I was entered in the "draw" and I did NOT get the shoes.

1. 75 - I like it if it was meant to mock the PC police
2. No
3. Just general artist and coder ( digital, traditional, animation ) but on my own terms
4. Less
5. Lobster bake Saturday/Popham beach Sunday

[jfish26]

1 - 50. It's a perfectly cromulent name.

2 - Because I am not a sneakerhead, I might spend the $100 and wear them just to tweak my sneakerhead friends.

3 - I might just do the fun parts of what I already do.

4 - Less

5 - The only thing I'm doing this weekend is kid sports.

4) More
5) Hit the farmer's market

1. 78 Unique, original, no confusion, etc.
2. No. I don't hate them but I have about 70 other pairs I do/would like better. Probably wouldn't even wear them to a Dead show because I know they would get damaged.
3. 9 times out of 10 I would say NHL player. Today at this moment I am going to say President of the United States.
4. More. I am fat and I don't do well with humidity at all.
5. I have NOTHING planned but I am confident I will take a shit at some point - and I usually find that to be enjoyable.

1. 50. Only purpose of name is unique identifier, so as long as it's easy to say, don't care.
2. No.
3. NBA player. Or teaching/mentoring poor and/or uneducated people on how to be software developers, but in a magic world where that pays no worse than a corporate coding job.
4. Way more
5. Sitting on my neighbor's driveway, drinking beer, smoking weed, and playing guitar, which I'll be doing in a few hours.

[ousdahl]

1. Meh
2. No
3. Message bored mod
4. I think less? I’m in better shape than many, so I feel like I don’t break a sweat as soon as others
5. Yelling “O’Doyle rules” at jfish

[Deleted User 310]

1. 4
2. No
3. Professional golfer (tour pro not teaching pro)
4. Less
5. 1st 2 rounds of a golf tournament and hanging with the wife/kids. Doing either pizza or mexican take out...hopefully we do tacos!

1) 0 - Someone please find me a franchise with a worse name than "Football Team"
2) I would pay $110 for them if I had a buyer lined up to purchase them from me on the secondary market for $1,227. Things are worth what people are willing to pay for them. But as shoes to be worn? No, I wouldn't pay $25 for them and I would never wear them even if they were given to me.
3) CEO of a major organization. Even if you suck, you get a fat payout to leave and can afford to retire immediately. Talk about low pressure. But I don't have a "dream job" that realistically fits into my current life better than what I already have. I love the job I have and the employer I work for. Maybe a video game QA tester; I have all sorts of thoughts on the janky BS that passes for the final version of a video game.
4) No idea; probably the same. The only time I am sweating around people my age is when we are doing stuff that makes everyone sweat such as riding bikes, golfing, skiing, hiking, etc...
5) Taking my mountain bike out for a few hours.

[jhawks99]

Wait, DC named their football team Football Team?

That's the dumbest thing I ever heard. It's like calling your band The Band.

[pdub]

I like it.
Exemplifies the ridiculousness of it all.

[ousdahl]

The Band is legit rock and roll GOATS.
