underwhelming

Written by Zoe on .

ETA: Puck Huffers now has the LiveFyre comments system, i.e. total fucking badassery.
To use the new comments system, you can login with your Facebook, Twitter, or a LiveFyre account.
Integration with a Bloguin login is coming soon.
USE THIS POST TO TEST OUT THE COMMENTS.  Feel free to talk about the deadline, or whatever.  Yell at us.
Don't forget to customize your notifications so you don't get e-mails you don't want.

Pens didn't do anything today. Rob Rossi made all of the conclusions on Twitter that we made automatically for free, and we're not even professional sports journalists (yet).
The great Rostislav Klesla, the Original Blue Jacket, of "Thanks Jim Day" fame, became a Phoenix Coyote today. Scottie Upshall, Scottie Upshall's abs, and Sami Lepisto came to Columbus, making the fact that Columbus got a Finn the most exciting thing to happen all day.


Oh and Jason Arnott became a Cap or something. Which means he's on our shit list. We were going to just post a picture of Jason Arnott, but then we noticed that his face was arrayed startlingly on our favorite photo source, Daylife. OBSERVE:

Maybe it's a sign.
Maybe Jason sees Godzilla.

The Pens have a lot of cap room to spare in case some folks need to come off of LTIR.  Which, presumably, they will.
Give yourself a big hug and Thank Curry for TSN.
We made it.
Are we still the monster?
Pens don't play til Wednesday; maybe we'll figure it out.

GO PENS.

@debrisslide67 @FleurysPokeCheck Encouraging discussion and activity on your site is a good thing, fer shur fer shur. And TK agrees with me. But changing comments systems with regularity can be a turn-off, man. To quote Sammy Davis, Jr. This is what? The third change in less than a year? I could care less because change is the only thing that anybody can count on and I don't mind jumping through extra hoops. But some lazy ingrates can't even be bothered to read anything for 10 seconds or type more than a few blips and they freak out. What happens when Twitter goes tits up?

And no, that's not a rhetorical question. It's cool to try before you buy, but you gotta find your sexy asses a steady sometime. Try a guy/comments system that's wheelchair-based. You know about men in wheelchairs, right? What they can do?

@debrisslide67 @FleurysPokeCheck Since FleurysPokeCheck already has 273 points, I can safely assume that points from the tPB and other livefyre c-sites travel with you.

*Please excuse me while I confirm this assumption by posting this completely unnecessary comment.*

@FleurysPokeCheck Implementation by Bloguin. But this is something we wanted. Many of our readers are on Twitter already, and the Bloguin comments system was clunky and annoying to login to. Our intention with this is to aid and encourage discussion and activity on our site--I don't think that's a bad thing. :)

Okay it likes it. Fucking fucker. Where's my inhaler?

Question: Who gets mono in 2011? Is it okay to have mono when you're like way way way on the wrong side of 15??? Seriously?

@MouthGuard Better question: who gets mono more than once? I assumed I was sleeping 18 hours a day because law school sucked, but it turns out I was just defying the medical odds by getting it for a second time.

Goddammit I can't tell if my meds are finally working or if I've taken a turn for the worse. It doesn't like my picture, for some reason. Updated it per the instructions but I don't think it likes it. Fucking fucker.

Oh god, more new technology to make me feel old and out-of-touch.

@debrisslide67 @utterfrivolity Indeed. The original Droid commercials when they first came out were almost enough to scare me back into a circa-2002 Cricket throwaway phone.

@utterfrivolity You are old and out-of-touch. That's why you're awesome. Now, go toast your boyfriend Jimmy's contract extension (and hair extensions) and then come back and post something drunk just to make sure everything works okay.

In honor of livefyre, and his goal, can anyone explain why Havlat has such dark hair in comparison to his facial hair?

@moonshadow309 Claude Giroux is the Lord & Master of that shit. The ginge barely hides the fact that he has no chin, but he has to try everything in his power to deal.
