  1. Ian Boyd is SydneyCarton? mindblown.gif edit: that’s what I get for not hitting “show 4 replies” prior to submitting.
  2. Is the part in the conversation where we say that Rashan Gary is also a realistic possibility?
  3. Damn just came back to ask if they were still available.
  4. Fuck it lets fucking go all gas no brakes in this bitch
  5. These people…what. the. fuck.
  6. And somewhere Rick Perry breathes a sigh of relief as he scarfs down a corn dog
  7. What more do they need to know? We literally saw her get shot while trying to climb through a door/window after being told to stop. Capitol security forces reacted as they should’ve. Maybe she should’ve just complied and not tried to overthrow our government? How many lawsuits have to come out saying that Tucker Carlson and other similar shows on Fox are not considered news for viewers to understand the reality television they’re watching and taking as news? (I know the answer but god damnit it’s infuriating)
  8. Agree with the sentiment that we need to do a postmortem of this whole ordeal to find out what worked and what didn’t in preparation for the next one as well as what people knew and when they knew it. Wasn’t planning on posting in this thread at all but had to comment on something else that came up. Who the fuck isn’t supporting an investigation into 1/6? Some of you really think “nah we don’t need to look into how or why some pieces of shit rubbed literal shit on the walls of the capitol.” I mean a fucking confederate flag was marched through that bitch!!! Fuck off and die in a fucking fire traitor pieces of shit out.
  9. Any of you got presale access? Trying to go with my pops to Rams/Texans (we’re Rams fans) this season.
  10. Lol 1 million a week...so in like 3-4 months
  11. Lol 3 (now 4) posts about the eyes in this thread...DeRAiLeD
  12. Lol Texas football will be fine without your money and a few others
  13. Jesus can y’all stop quoting bad teammate he’s such a whiny bitch. We get it, Bernie didn’t get the nomination, I wanted him too. Blaming Biden for shit like the parliamentarian saying it’s a no go to the $15 at the moment is beyond comical. Trying to ram it through at the expense of having the whole package fail gives the gop a win. Get the Covid Bill done and then get the vaccinations done. Then you bring in the $15/hr increase done. this is chess not checkers you fucking crybaby. Let the guy be in office more than 5 fucking weeks before deeming him a failure.
  14. Pretty sure it was impossible to know about Surly “at least from 07”... Also...fuck off Ted Cruz you bitch ass trump cuck
  15. Being a South Texas Hispanic from the border I’d like to reply: the recent voting in the presidential election that favored trump or an increased voter total in his favor is not easily explained looking at the numbers only. For example, in Laredo, a large portion of the population works in the oilfield or for border patrol. The oilfield allows many who would otherwise be working a dead end job the opportunity to earn great money. I have no issues with people making money but their lack of education or ability to use critical thinking with regards to understanding policies that would either help or hurt their profession added to the increased support. In their minds, Biden (democrats) were going to end oilfield/fracking work for good when in reality Biden’s stated agenda for fracking was not to issue new permits on federal land. That lie was parroted on Facebook and in the news by right leaning news outlets and spread like wildfire in Laredo. Regarding BP, it provides a great paying federal job for many that wouldn’t otherwise qualify for such a high paying government job. One of my cousins, literally known in the family as not the brightest of his siblings, is now a recruiting supervisor after about 10 years experience. I remember he would brag about how he didn’t have to go to school and is still taking home over 100K while I was struggling to get through undergrad and law school. Many friends that became agents would brag about getting paid to sit in their Tahoe’s and watch movies while parked on a ranch close to the border. One BP agent on my Facebook feed (now since deactivated because fuck Facebook) even was advocating for Texas to secede from the US if Biden wins. Mindblown.gif The sad reality is that many of the Hispanic citizens along the border, many only a generation removed from living across the border, think so lowly about our neighbors from the south. The mentality is “fuck them, I got mine.” They’ll claim that “They’re stealing our jobs” yet they don’t care that “Don Juan” who is mowing their lawn or remodeling their kitchen is here illegally because he will do it for cheaper. They'll cross the border to see the doctor because it’s cheaper. Additionally a sad reality that I’ve seen with a few acquaintances and distant family is that they fall for many of the conspiracies that are spread like wild fire on Facebook. I blame our education system in Texas for this shit but in my opinion it is part of the reason for the increase in support for trump this past election.
  16. Fuck it on to the next one...all gas no brakes go enjoy doing jack and shit in Palo Alto
  17. I would love to go at least a few days without a Texas politician not making an ass out of themselves in the national spotlight 🤬
  18. Player guest on a future pod?
  19. Nice of you to come back to the cloak room after dotard is gone. I’m sure your posts will be just as informative as they were before you left for a few months.
  20. God damnit!
