    first time i tried the cutwater margaritas i thought they were pretty good but was surprised the next day by my head and noted the 12.5% alcohol content i'd missed
    found a cazadores version in Vallarta w a 5% abv and a taste i prefer when reaching for a pre mixed marg fwiw

    ive been away from alcohol for so long that if its not a beer or a spirit it looks like some kind of soft rock spritzer wine cooler
    i had one of those little slim cans of some fruity citrusy drink that got me a little spun
    they putting uppers in the downers!

    yeah i don't mess w those but the margs are margs to me
    if i buy a bottle of cazadores i just drink it straight and that's not my mo these days
    still like tequila and a drinkie here and there but beer has gotten boring not to mention fattening
    plus those things come in 4 packs so even if i go crazy its nbd unless its the 12.5% which i now avoid

    This is very cool

    I want to put together a 26-man roster for each MLB team with only draft picks and IFA signings, no free agency nor trades
    Too many fans talking shit about Dodgers are only good cause they spend money
    I want to see what rosters would look like
    Going to use the IFA signing history and draft history to filter out which players are available to each team

    Example: If you go to spotrac.com, you can see all the ifa signing history but you cannot simply copy the information from their site and paste into an excel file. With Python, I have a script that will go to spotrac.com then extract the information and put it into a csv file almost instantly.

    fattening lol
    ask your BF for a bud light next time!
    i got myself a finski level gut going right now like a real mans man

    in honor of you i had an alcoholic beverage last night
    i rarely drink but it was brought to my attention that i had never had soju
    so a peach flavored sake looking thing was brought to the table
    some korean flavored rice fire water
    it hit pretty decent but all i could think of was that it would be much better if it didnt taste like fruit
    the girl was drinking them like shots lol
    im like no way this is supposed to be drank as a shot
    i drank half the little bottle to see if it hit
    it hit

    Yes, basically
    Web-scraping and this idea aside, using Python is very new to me and I'm getting a lot of excitement out of just learning the tool itself

    nice
    then you gonna wanna take the data and have it automatically feed a website
    do you have a website in mind
    and if you use one of the new quantum like databases you can create the most customizable stat tables to pump out metrics that make all the SABR stuff obsolete
