Wednesday Open Thread: February 15, 2017

Merry Wednesday, everyone!

Another slow day of news, I’m afraid, although the Vikings are rumored to be looking at K’Waun Williams, former cornerback in Cleveland.

Hey, these things are still a thing, okay?

-No discussion of politics or religion
-No feeding of the trolls
-This isn't a male version of The View, so leave the gender hatred at the door
-Keep the bad language to a minimum (using the spoiler tags, if you must
-Speaking of which, if discussing a newer show or movie, please use spoiler tags
-No pictures that could get someone fired or in serious trouble with their employer
-If you can't disagree in a civil manner, feel free to go away
-While navigating the open thread, just assume it's sarcasm
