¿Ask Julio?

[Julio3000]

This—contrary to the reductive and violent wishes of el jefe—is meant as a complement (and compliment) to Cy's stellar thread . . . and Heyward's, um, thread. There are simply too many bad questions in the world for any one man to have to face them alone.

I wanted this to be an Answer and Question thread, not a Question and Answer thread. Disappointment.

This spin-off is worse than the Shanks follow up article to Heyward.

But I digress. When are we going to see Julio vs. Cy Young ?

But I digress. When are we going to see Julio vs. Cy Young ?

When you have access to a working time machine.

If I was going to make a list blog, what would be a good title for it?

I've tried Listology and Listionary, but those are already taken.

 

[Julio3000]

Listeria.

Listicon.

Fatalist. Pluralist. Minimalist.

Clistoris. If it's that kind of party.

Having seen that Fredi will be doing a live video chat, it got me thinking that me and Julio should have our own web show.

jpx7 can be our stat guy, or omniscient voice over.

Spaghetti Western overdubs.

I have nothing to add to this conversation. I just wanted to part of this epic moment in history.

 

[Julio3000]

me and Julio should have our own web show.

Join me, and together we can rule the web as father and son . . . or, at least as fake latino and unassuming, bespectacled pitching legend.

Why do some people think cucumbers taste better pickled?

The Ron Howard of our obviously arrested development.

Are there modern day pirates? And if so, what should I do if I'm approached by one?

 

[Julio3000]

My experience is that everything tastes better when you're a little drunk.

 

[Julio3000]

Are there modern day pirates?

Buccaneering isn't what it once was, so modern pirates are often forced to work in service-sector jobs during the day, and pirating at night. Day pirates are increasingly rare.

And if so, what should I do if I'm approached by one?

Given the historical diversity of those who choose the privateer's life, I'd say your best bet is to prepare yourself to confront many different exotic varieties of seamen.

When I was outside on the patio with my kids earlier was I technically a patiodaddio? And if so how big of an asshole was I during that time?

Just to clarify. Do you mean like this guy?

 

[Julio3000]

Only if your kids were wearing berets and playing the bongos, dig? If they weren't your kids, you might be more of a zitothebrave.

And if so how big of an asshole was I during that time?
