I can't say I even know what an "incel" is, though I bet it's yet another factually inaccurate insult you guys use to describe a person..

Good name for a dog. One of the better dog names I heard was a huge golden lab, probably a cross with a larger breed as his head was huge. Named Troubadour.
I had a Newf named Owen.
Worst dog name I ever heard was a loser dealer in HS who named his dog, DeeOhGee, or Diogi, or whatever. Bad play on the spelling of the word dog.

Columbo was great in Wings of Desire. His career also really took off once he went to Dallas

Kojak would be a better name for a dog than Baretta; discuss.

The HOF is a joke. There is though one certain band that is clearly long overdue. Back in the 60's Canada played mostly American and British music while snubbing their own Canadian bands as inferior. Many Canadian artists like Neil Young, Joni Mitchell, The Band and Steppenwolf moved to the US to break thru. One band from Winnipeg called Chad and the Expressions stayed home. Formed in the early 60's after several chart failures the record company tried to capitalize on their latest single. Knowing that local bands were shunned, the record company pressed their next single without their band name but with a ? This lead to speculation it might be The Beatles or the Kinks or even a combination of different British bands. The single, Shaking All Over became a smash hit in Canada and a top 40 hit in the US. Everybody was trying to guess who the band was. Hence the band became to be called The Guess Who. Now you know the rest of the story. After Shaking All over the band went back to obscurity. It wasn't until Chad Allen left the band and a new dynamic singer who could sing lovely ballads and heavy rock did the band achieve international success.
Their success influenced the government of Canada to pass legislation that forced Canadian stations to play a majority percentage of Canadian music. This paved the way for bands like Rush and Loverboy. But the Guess Who broke thru without any help.

This generally happens to artist years after they're done making music and it has zero effect on their careers. Not sure why anyone would take any stock in it.
