Yep, hot and humid here, too. I can't wait for fall!

Does that make us EN World arsonists?

They get stuffy every once in a while? *zing!* ;)

This thread is meant to be ironic, right? *zing!*

I agree with everyone else: it was amazingly terrible. I'm not sure if I've ever seen a movie that bad. My recommendation: don't see it. Really.

Man, I've had fun watching all the games, nonetheless!

Yeah, particularly with the game on the line in a knockout game situation, the offending team basically turns a guaranteed goal into a die roll--even with evenly matched teams.

No, we work with natural gas.

I'm not sure why you say this.

LOVE the result! The Netherlands are a very underrated team. Two top 5 teams play, one loses, and everyone is shocked. If it were Spain, Portugal, Argentina, or Germany, the shock would have been less.

I'm going to be a data analyst for an energy company. I'll actually get to use my Economics degree!

I don't think I've mentioned in the Hive yet, but I start a new job next week and I'm super excited!

So is anyone else upset about the draw? How did Portugal not get into Pot 1? It's certainly made for some interest early knockout stage matches. #2 in the world versus #3 in the round of 16? #1 vs #4 in the quarters? Wow. Paraguay and Ghana are in some very good company.

I'm pretty sure the epic tier is all the same title: weem.

I was pretty impressed by their goalie, too.

I'm not a fan of the flops, but I don't hate them. Nowadays, at least, it seems like a ref won't call a foul unless you flop. If you get elbowed in the face? No foul. If you get elbowed in the face and fall over? Foul. Flops are merely a way to get the ref's attention for a foul. Unwarranted...

More on the topic: In Houston, 20-30 minutes is probably a pretty normal amount of time to get to where ever you're going--say, to visit a friend or go to a restaurant. My Iowa friends consider 15 minutes to be painfully long. Bubbles aren't nation-specific.

Runaway windmills?

The second rule of Hivemind Labyrinth of Backrooms: Oops again!

No, I have to agree with Joker. England played terribly from start to finish, before they were down 2-0, when they 'tied' it (should have, at least), and afterwards. Germany looked much more put together for the entire 90 minutes.
