watched Suicide Squad II last night

I had low expectations based on the trailers. Let me just say the trailers set you up. The movie is actually very entertaining

[hedge]

I guess they weren't successful in the first movie...

[Jungle Rat]

Never did watch the 1st one.

I've been watching this F1 documentary series on Netflix.

I think its really good and now its got me interested in watching F1. The next F1 race is over labor day weekend.

[Jungle Rat]

You'll forget by then.

if you remember the car Will Smith drove in iRobot

I like the one they make where the tail rises per your speed.

eCat, you need to watch The Watch, a farcical alien movie with Ben Stiller, Vince Vaughn, etc. Costco figures heavily in the plot...

[eCat]

I'm not sure I want to associate Costco with that movie

[hedge]

I only watched the end, but it took place in a Costco and I could tell that Stiller's love of Costco had been a running joke throughout the movie and how angry he was at the aliens for choosing Costco to launch their invasion...

[Jungle Rat]

Probably why I've never gone there. Aliens

Okay just give Jennifer Hudson the Academy Award right now. We just got back from the movie and it was.... awesome. Perfect family movie.

She’s black and not a white actress in black face. I would hope that doesn’t change your mind, but I’m sure it will. Aretha Franklin and Jennifer Hudson both left their husbands too.

They demanded RESPECT!

btw Hedge, wtf is going on with corn? Why am I paying $10 a bag for deer feed?

get your shit together man


I did see it dropped from a high of $7.5 in May to $5.4 now

"I did see it dropped from a high of $7.5 in May to $5.4 now"

Are you referring to futures? Dec corn futures are currently around $5.40, but the high was closer to $6.50, not $7.50.

Deer corn is a cottage industry. Typically around 50% higher price than commercial wholesale corn. $10 is kinda steep, esp. in Ohio, but there is a lot more competition for those bushels since y'all put up about 10 ethanol plants over the past 10 years or so. But hey, you do get that fancy bag with the big target on it, superimposed over the poor deer's face.

Plenty of farmers sell deer corn out of their bins, next time you're driving around in the country and see a big grain bin, stop and ask if they sell deer corn. Even if they don't, they'll probably know somebody who does. You won't get the fancy bag, but you should get it for less than what you're paying at Tractor Supply...

We used to sell bagged deer corn here, but it was such a pain in the ass and we sold so little of it (comparative to what we sell commercially) that we just quit doing it around 10 years ago. Plus it was a fucking hassle with these guys coming in here and hanging around talking about hunting and shit all day...

[eCat]

I don't buy that target corn, I buy the yellow bags for cattle

and I don't hunt, I feed the neighborhood deer much to my neighbors dislike

You’re going to feel like a real asshole when some hungry deer causes a grandmother to swerve and kill little Johnny playing in the yard….

fuck little Johnny - he ain't even vaccinated
