I'm surprised bottled water lasted that long. Where do you live that bottled water is only $1? It was $3 20 years ago. hahaha.

Round 5 pick

Category: Celebrity

Object of Disaffection: (general) YouTube unboxers.

This video has 472,009 views as of this post. Does that number even make sense? This is rock and roll hit level numbers.

Why are two adults gushing so hard over this? They know every single name! what????

I just don't get it. Why are people sitting around watching Disney, Apple, slime, video game, and on and on unboxing videos. What has this world come to?

I'm not really sure if I misunderstand the video makers or the people watching them more. I could have swore several books and old TV shows predicted the level of brain rot that the population requires for this to hold up. We are getting there, people. We are getting there.

daveT's picks
Weed
Shawshank
San Diego
Van Gogh
YouTube Unboxers

Nu Metal is still a thing? The genre felt like a watered-down version of underground metal and industrial. Not a real fan of that at all.

Goober's Gas & Bait Shop in S GA.
It does have a slightly brown color and "iffy" taste, but can't beat the price.

Hey, all, let's get this thing back on track. I ran these before and I'm electing myself to fill in for Dominic.

Biggerboat is on auto-skip due to Hurricane Irma.

Xander Biscuits was sent a PM by me after my pick. He is now skipped.

Starting from 8am, mrbaseball and Cranberry Tea have been skipped and may post at any time.

slamdunkpro is now on the clock. you have until 6pm to post.

When 6pm comes along, DC11GTR can pick.

Thanks to everyone for filling out the sheet.

(I'm in Central Time, so please adjust accordingly)

My hatred for San Diego is very much real. It's not even possible to write my disdain in words, so I didn't really try.

Nut, there was no "country" category. there is a city category, though.

DaveT, thanks for stepping up, my GF's Mom is dying and on her last legs, so I'm a little distracted this weekend.

Unbreakable
Don't Worry Be happy

Sorry to hear that Dom. I'll just run this for the time being.

NHL Nut;

I'm sorry, but I'm going to DQ your last pick due to the rules. If you like, you can have Riyadh, the capitol of Saudi Arabia.

Actually, I looked back a bit and found the slamdunkpro announced that he is out of town until Sunday and asked to be skipped.

DC11GTR is now on the clock.

He would normally PM biggerboat, but biggerboat is now on autoskip. I'm not sure the status on Dominic, but if he is in, he is after DC11GTR. Please PM Dom after the pick.

If Dominic is out until further notice, DC11GTR is a double pick, and he would PM Cranberry Tea.

The new order, from person 1 is as follows:

redbuck
daveT
NhlNut
xander biscuits (owes 1)
mrbaseball
Cranberry Tea (owes 1)
DC11GTR
Dom (?)

Category: Song

Object of HATE: Crash - Dave Matthews Band

I'm actually a DMB fan. I've seen the live a few times and loved it each time. Their musicianship is absolutely stellar and Dave himself is a monster rhythm player!!

But Crash is a joke of a song. Boring, repetitive, and it commits one of the worst musical atrocities: Giving beginning guitar players a song to "impress" girls with in junior high and high school. In my day, it was More Then Words (which worked like a charm) but that song at least had the inside joke of the fact that they were singing it to each other. This one is just Dave singing to hippy chicks and college girls who were lining up to blow roadies just to get to look at him up close.

Ugh, wow. That song is terrible, and one I forgot. Thanks for not adding a youtube vid for that.

Dom is on the clock, owing two.

Then it's DC11GTR with one.

Since Cranberry Tea already owes one, autoskip, please.

DC11GTR is to PM mrbaseball, unless CT gets back to us beforehand.

mrbaseball can go ahead and PM NHL Nut since xander biscuits is out for the evening.

Hopefully that wraps the night. If it gets back to me, autoskip. NHL Nut should PM redbuck.

So, the order is (for now)

Dom - 2 picks
DC11GTR
mrbaseball
NHL Nut
redbuck.

(this is ONLY vaild until 10pm Dominic's time. He's in Vegas and I'm not sure if that is Mountain or Pacific).

Object of HATE: Artichokes

Sorry!!! I don't care if you're tasty as hell, you're not worth the trouble of preparing you. 90% of your existence is a waste.

There are a tons of foods that I wonder how people learned they were actually food and how they eventually figured out to make it edible. And this one tops that list. Do you know how far someone has to dig to find the good part? And what has to be done to even make that part able to be consumed? With all the exterior, it should taste like one of 2+2's steaks, but its not even close. I'll eat ya, but only when someone else has slaved over it.

DC11GTR's picks:
Marina Abromovic
Dexter
New Age Feel-goodery
Nu Metal
Crash
Artichokes.

WAIT!

Dominic said "I'm still here." Is that a "skip me?" (legit question: I don't know what that meant)

Well, feel free to PM mrbaseball.

Totally confused? Saw a few posts up where it said I was skipped. so I picked. I know I am not up

According to the spreadsheet we are still missing 7 round 5 picks although there is one 6th round pick in there. Are we just skipping everyone?

No, sir. We are now in round 6. It's confusing because over half the posters are on auto-skip.

I'm not sure if Dominic wants to pick his 2 now or later. If he confirms skip, then you can go. Until then, please wait.

After you pick, PM NHL Nut.
