Mashburn:
>We get back to the hotel, Rodney Rogers says something to-its a group of them-it's Larry Bird and Magic Johnson, and every is shooting their shit. And Rodney Rogers said, "Ay Larry, you ain't hit a jumper since '84." Magic heard that shit, and we ain't think nothing of it.

>The next day we came in, and I never seen this, and this was when I was like this a different breed. Magic Johnson fed Larry Bird the ball, probably about 8 times in a row down court. Larry Bird got the ball on Rodney Rogers, and every time he was about to make a move, he told him what he was going to do.

Absolutely brutal lmfao, "young fella, look like '84 huh?" is easily my favorite line. Larry Bird was truly something else, all the while tending for his bad back by laying down lmaoo!
Edit: Sorry for the confusion, this was when the college USA select team was scrimmaging against the Dream Team
So I am at the moment of writing on the train, free seating. Not a busy trip, so entire carts are empty. Excellent. The next stop, some guy comes on, looks around, sees me, plonks down right next to me. He has to be a foreigner, any sane Norwegian would obviously have found their own cart. Maybe a cursory nod and smile while walking AWAY.
But, alas, here we sit. I avoid all eyecontact as hard as I can as a good Norwegian does, he keeps looking around confused and looks at me whenever I move my head to presumably try to get some eye-contact.
Now it is well known that this is a very typical Norwegian phenomenon, to be me in this situation. What I wish to know is - what the hell IS the rest of the world actually thinking? I presume you are not all psychotic, but I never understood what is going through your mind when doing stuff like that? Why the need as an adult to sit beside a stranger on a public transport? Don't you like peace and quiet and being with your own thoughts? Please explain it, I doubt I'll understand really, but it would be nice to hear your perspective anyway.
What would you want? The finest scotch of the town is here! Now, please answer, what brings you here, down to my profile page? Are you looking for certain someone? Or do you just want to have a nice chat?
As he sits down the 10 o’clock news comes on. The news team were at the scene of a man who was preparing to jump from a tall building.
The blonde looks over to the man and asks “Do you think he’ll do it?”.
The man answers “Yes, I think he probably will. In fact I’m willing to make a bet on it.” And he placed a £20 note on the bar.
The blonde replies “You’re so negative, I bet he won’t then.” and also placed £20 on the bar.
Shortly after this the man on the news makes a great leap off the building, sadly falling to his death. The blonde looks upset as she slides her money towards the man.
With a pang of remorse the man says “I’m sorry, I can’t take your money. I saw this story earlier on the 6 o’clock news and knew he would jump.”
The blonde also admits to having seen the news earlier: “I did too…but I never thought he would do it again!”

They start chatting and the Gen Z kid says that social justice issues are the biggest problem facing the world, and that the white supremacist patriarchy is a plague on society. > The boomer waves this off and says the kids these days are just too sensitive, and that he fought for civil rights in the sixties and did his part.
They go back and forth on this for a while, and finally the Gen Z kid says, "we're just not gonna settle this. We don't see eye to eye. You're too old and out of touch and I'm too young and inexperienced. What we need to do is ask a Millennial with a PhD in sociology for their opinion."
The boomer says, "that's a great idea!" And yells, "HEY BARTENDER, C'MERE!"
They hit it off, and she likes a man in uniform, so she says, “Why don’t you come up to my room?”
The general says, “I’m flattered but at my age I’m not sure if things would work the way you hope.”
She says, “But you’re in good shape...tell me, when was the last time you had sex?”
“Oh...”,says the general...”it was probably 1950.”
“Oh my gosh!”, says the woman. “Well I’m sure it will all come back to you.”
So they end up in bed and it’s pretty wild. The general really has some skills.
When it’s all over, she says, “General, that was wonderful! I’m impressed that you haven’t forgotten a thing since 1950!”
And the general says, “Well I should hope not. It’s only 2130 now.”
