Wild, Unprovable Predictions

The Sicatoka

Kicizapi Cetan
Make your wild, unprovable predictions about anything here.

Batting lead-off:


If Charles, Prince of Wales, were to resign and give up his claim of heir to the British throne, Queen Elizabeth would abdicate faster than you can say "Camilla's a homewrecker."

(Meghan Markle would find a way to complain about all of it.)
 
Does calling Covid "hysteria" in March 2020 and then running away for a year count?

Only if you've buried a parent and a couple parent siblings in the last year, none from Covid. And changed positions ... twice. And been executor of a couple multi-million dollar estates.

As far as 'hysteria', Covid raised the mean age of death in North Dakota; how dare I say that? Five of every eight Covid deaths in my State were in the age 80+ category. Deaths is terrible, but it happens to those 80+, Covid or not, as I learned more than once in the last year. So it may be callous, but those 80+ were easy targets. Covid is a piker that takes the low-hanging fruit.


French, your consistent tact toward me is nothing more than exposure of your true pusillanimous nature. Please do continue to act sanctimoniously toward my mere existence, but you are nothing more than a sniveling, simpering twit who'd barely breathe a word of such to my face. And the underlined is my next wild, unprovable prediction, as surely you'd never sully yourself by coming to the real world as is North or South Dakota (or dare I say Florida) where Covid was treated as another reality of life, and not a reason to stop living in the world.


Now that we've been de- and re-railed, carry on.
 
If Berry would've changed goalies when Sandelin did, it would've gone seven overtimes, ... at least. (Scheel was exhausted.)

I'm sorry you had bad family events happen during the year, that sucks, truly. So for the instance I will admit that I am in the wrong.

But you have consistently for years had the M.O. of dropping pithy remarks of concern for some minor infringement on the other side, while ignoring much bigger issues elsewhere, and never offering any sort of constructive input, and then whistling as you stroll off. So don't be surprised if a reputation you've built up occasionally comes back at you, much like my tendency to mouth off is making me look a bit bad here.

As for probably never venturing to a Dakota to say it to you personally, you are probably right. I have no interest at all in traveling to either state. That doesn't make your challenge any less ridiculous. It's a web forum; the whole point is for people to interact remotely; pretending someone is dodging you when there is a 0.00001% chance they would ever cross your path to begin with is fake machismo. If we find ourselves at a Frozen Four in the future, I'll say it all verbatim to you. Until then, keep believing to yourself that you have thrown down some sort of gauntlet.

My wife's college at Oxford (Brasenose) has a famous "Bet Book" in the Fellows (faculty) Common Room (lounge). It literally dates back 400+ years, and contains friendly wagers made by faculty, often about subjects that they well knew would not be settled for decades or centuries after their deaths. There's also longbets.org, which sometimes has some interesting topics (haven't looked at it in several years).
 
At least one person got in touch with Dump with an offer to assassinate Biden and he did not report it to the FBI.

What is the “real world?” Backwater fundie magnets with no regard to science? Ya no thanks.

I’ll give respect when he actually addresses why he can’t admit that maybe, just maybe, his side is worse on all the stuff he was around to constantly bleat on about. If he has, I’ve certainly missed that post.

he’s right about one thing- as dumb as hereditary monarchies are, the UK is thankful that Andrew and Harry weren’t born first. Harry and Meghan would stop their incessant woe is me I’m poor whining the second they thought that sweet royal cash was coming. But Charles sausage fingers will grab that crown as fast as he can- he’s waited his entire life.
seriously tho have you seen Charles hands? I wonder how long he’ll live
 
I think we should arm Harry with a mercenary army to march on London and take the crown. It's been too long since someone with a tenuous claim did that. We're overdue.

If genetics play any role at all he could make it to 110. I have no recollection of any relative of mine making it past 90.

He’s a spoiled twat without any real skills. I’d rather back, say, Zara Phillips- had the discipline to become world class in a sport and doesn’t spend her days whinging about how she was wronged and being so desperate to whine that she falls for a Greta impersonator. Plus her mom seems very no-nonsense so I think she’s a heck of a lot more stable than the windsors

Good idea, bad selection.

James Lascelles. First cousin once removed to the Queen, 55th in line. Serious jazz musician. Toured with Zappa.

But we need somebody with some firepower behind them, and some history, so let's just go all the way to the source and back out the Normans completely: King Harald V of Norway, 70th in line. Reverse Stamford Bridge, avenge Harald Hardrada, and uncreate England as an entity to the cheers of literally the entire rest of the world.

After that just throw the scraps to some Saxon, Pict, and Welsh (or rather my favorite, the Hwicce) bollocks. The place is crap anyway.
