I see your perspective. So if you apply the same criticism to "It's a Wonderful Life" (IAWL), you will come to the same conclusion, even though IAWL is widely considered a Christmas movie!
IAWL is partially set around Christmas, just like Die Hard, but is mostly about George's life and his financial crisis and issues with the bank. There's not even as much Christmas music in IWAL vs. Die Hard. To top it off, the basic message of IAWL is essentially, "suck it up and be happy with what you have even if though were screwed out of something unfairly by assholes." However, IAWL does deal with the Christmas themes of depression and suicidal ideation, so I guess that makes sense.
Take the plot out of IAWL and stick at elsewhen on the calendar and it still works with the same ideas--I'm not saying it's a bad movie at all and I think it's got a very powerful message at the end. But to apply the same criteria and call IAWL a classic Christmas movie and in the same breath state that Die Hard is not, is at the very least disingenuous and most likely apocryphal.
I have spoken.
Edit to add: F*ck xOSU. Go Tigers. Beat Bama. Etc.
You forgot about the part where the NCAA will assign John O'Neill's crew (or whoever it was that worked the JT-was-short-game) to work The Game to ensure that xOSU gets a fair shake during their troubled and stressful ordeal.
This is excellent. May I add to your solution by suggesting to lay out your freshly laundered undies on a flat towel and then rolling up the towel with the undies? Give the towel some firm squeezes and unroll and hang the undies to dry. 60% of the time, it works every time.
Who cares about testing? You can train all you want and take all the EPO, IGF-1, steroids, coke, etc. and, if you don't die, you (or 99.99999999% of the world's population) won't be able to sniff that level of performance.
The point is that someone was able to do it. Period. Like the 1st guy to go up Everest, even with the help of Sherpas. It was shown to be doable and then a lot of other people started doing it too.
This is 100% correct from a physics and physiology standpoint. The metabolic equivalent of actually running on flat ground is about the same as running on a 1% grade on a treadmill.

You stick the batteries in the marshmallows. The added weight allows them to travel farther. Where were you in the 80's???

I heard he actually trained with his receivers in the summer so they would be on the same page and get their timing dialed in.
Instead of, you know, playing golf. Cuz that works too.

It's because we exposed Army's weaknesses and provided a blueprint to beat them?
Yeah, that's what it was.
obviously /s
Edit for obvious thongs are obvious.
So is it a "dumb ass" or a "dumb assed" question? I've always thought "dumb assed" seems more correct in this context.
Cumong man, even in the worst BPONE fantasy, you still give yourself a win over Rutger.

Remember when they thought running JUST 1 mile under 4 min. was "impossible" lol? Someday we'll see someone do a marathon with sub 4:00 splits.
If anybody here has suicidal ideations or thoughts, it is always ok to reach out to someone to get help:
1) 911
2) National Suicide Prevention Lifeline 800-273-8255
3) Your work Employee Assistance Plan (EAP) or local crisis line
Suicide jokes or snark are never funny and need to be treated as serious statements. Thanks OP for posting!
It would actually be impressive for Shea to get #20--considering it would be wildly inaccurate, if not apocryphal.
If I was #21, I'd be pissed.
