Talk About Tennis 2.0

I thought Ruud was obvious. Rublev, of course. Hasn't changed at all.

Allegedly Drake dropped a new song last night with the following lyric in it:

“Side bar Serena your husband is a groupie, he claim we don't got a problem but no boo it is” -Drake on Middle of the Ocean


I haven't heard it myself, so I am posting with one eye closed on the hopes I am not being fooled by the internet

What's the translation of the lyric? That Alexis is a little salty about whatever happened between Drake and Serena way back when? What does it mean that he's a groupie?

Same, Ruud and Rublev. Kicking myself for not getting Sinner, with that red hair.

What does that mean?
(The Drake song, not Megan's post).

If this is what music has become, it's no wonder that kids today have no idea how to even construct a proper sentence.
Wow.

You don't know the half of it.

Easy for me. TV, smartphones, pets.

This is easy: alcohol, pets, television. I don't have a pet, but I'd rather keep my smart phone and never have another pet again than the other way around. I wouldn't have put an existing pet on that list.

I often say that all forms of alcohol could disappear tomorrow and I wouldn't notice. It's not that I don't drink. I just that I never never, ever want a drink. I wish I could say the same about cupcakes and Coke Zero.

Alcohol, smart phones, pets.
I had a cat for 18 years. Since he died, I haven't had a pet (I've taken in some strays from time to time until I found homes for them, but I never considered them 'my pets'... after growing up with my cat - from age 6 to age 24 -, I can't have another real pet).
I could have also included Grandparents, as all of mine are dead.
I could also give up TV quite easily. But since I currently have a TV, and don't have a pet...
I don't own a car - but I wouldn't want to give up being able to go places in other peoples' cars.

Who would give up shoes, really? I imagine no-one living in any area with paved streets and sidewalks...

Perhaps Andy doesn't realize that if he gives up shoes, he'd also have to give up tennis.
Same for Benoit with alcohol, probably...

Same. 20 years, never to be replaced. RIP, King of Cats.

Yeah... most people don't understand this, though.
A pet is not only part of the family, but is an integral part of your life. And they are all unique beings with unique characters.
I can't replace my cat with another cat anymore than I can replace my Mother with another person.

smart phones, grandparents, cars - don't own either a car or a smart phone, and my grandparents have all passed away - so basically not changing a thing in my life
