As someone who possesses the properties of being tall, physically fit, good looking, heterosexual, AND the additional qualities resident in crippling shyness and actual Asperger’s Syndrome, engaging with the opposite sex is a uniquely perplexing endeavour, especially when, owing to the first three properties, one is approached by a lass…In the university library, for example. The enormous pressure and discomfort totally overwhelms the biological imperative. I can therefore sympathize with both of you gentlemen in your relationboat’s challenges, my inferior vocabulary notwithstanding.

What would be the worst would be to say “I saw a non-fat version of you.”

CC, if you are interested in the GLM flood here is (at least part of) the Nova special on it. As someone in the WA wine industry we daily geek out over the impact on soil this had. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J9PL9ZnMy3w

Also, I saw a slightly fatter, more facially hirsute version of you when I looked up at my Bobby Baumann homemade Fathead tonight.

Really good episode, guys. Carson, I hope you’re just being modest, but if you question yourself you should know that many of the denizens of Internet St. find you to be one of the most unique, interesting and entertaining writers around. Keep doing you, bro.

Phenomenal episode. Perhaps a semi-regular Jeff Sullivan Fangraphs podcast episode is in order. 🙂

I think the idea that producing offspring is a transformative affair is only partly true. That is to say, it tends to be almost entirely true for the female side of the equation. Us guys tend to hold the mistaken belief that having a child should have no effect on the frequency with which we sex our wives, or that our wives want to sex us. It is also true that after that first kid that your wife sexes you only for further reproduction or out of sympathy for you and that any real desire for sexing is played out in their heads with French beekeeping ultramarathoners named Julian.

Positive comment to prevent all content on fangraphs from being written by Eno.
