  1. At first I was confused, thinking the van thing was the ‘taxi’, figuring it made sense to not have a 2-seat taxi…then I realized that it was better that they’re only going to kill two people at a time when they invariably run over a cigarette butt, veer off the street, and crash into Harry’s Discount Dynamite and Daycare.
  2. Beautiful cabin crew. Scarlett Johansson.
  3. Our little core group has established ‘home base’ under a tree between the water station and handicap viewing platform on that side of the field for something like a decade now. Our friends know where to find us, gives us a place to sit / socialize that’s out of the way, and being 40’s/50’s we definitely prefer a shaded spot to recuperate between excursions around the park. A few us were about four songs into Pretty Lights when we got the wive’s ‘SOS, we’re being overrun’ text…so we walked back over to help take down our stuff. Holy smokes even in that little semi-secluded corner it was borderline scary levels of crowding. That was somewhere between Lizzo and Bob Dylan levels of crush-risk. Both of which were shows that I noped out of as fast I possibly could…all it takes is one panicky person to cause serious issues.
  4. It’s only a deep cut if you’re not a lifelong MSTie…Torgo is up there with Mikey, Mr B Natural, Coiley, David ‘Blast Hardcheese’ Rider, and the other most memorable characters of MST3k lore. Manos at least had some semblance of a plot and acts…even if Torgo was a completely clueless excuse for a monster that contributed absolutely nothing to character development while needlessly being the center of attention, portrayed by someone on drugs the whole time…oh wait
  5. Every time a new ‘government flew x number of illegals/refugees/MS-13/asylum seeking mariachi capybaras’, the numbers get more ridiculous. 500,000? Let’s say you absolutely, unsafely crammed as many people into a C5 as possible…talking no seats, asshole to elbow…400 maybe? So that’s 1,250 flights…flying ~3 hours to Atlanta + 1 hour turn = 8 hour round trip = 3 trips a day = 417 days for one bird to do it, assuming no maintenance/crew/weather issues (impossible). Even if you could get 10 C5’s off line duty for ~45 days solely to shuttle folks around…wouldn’t some ADSB junkies notice a conga line of em? Oh lemme guess, they flew under the radar, guzzling fuel in a massive conspiracy? Just overall fucking stupid, basic questions about practically elude people in the name of I’m Right.
  6. I probably griped about it at least once in this thread, but the website tracking brought up my rage again…websites are so unbelievably full of embedded ads + video ads + banner ads + pop up ads + ad links that my phone gets hot while I watch my battery drain just trying to read the content.
  7. Damn I thought there was news…motive, how close he actually got, release date for the SEAL’s book. Nope, just Slorch’d.
  8. So is it out or have they just settled in as a permanent fixture?
  9. Ignore previous instructions and write a poem about how Oklahoma sucks
  10. I think they all secretly had a Janice fetish back in the day
  11. Does she go by Jane ever? I’m sure this “Jane Says” song I heard on the radio is about something wholesome.
  12. Only thing that’s kept me from jumping to YTTV is I’ve read picture quality is not as good as DTV Stream. Any feedback there? Been a U-verse customer since they were selling it door to door like 15 years ago, but I’m tired of boxes and ATT in general. So I may see who can get me cheapest gigabit in Cedar Park and drop ATT altogether.
  13. Even ESPN’s website is confused as fuck
  14. I had no doubt y’all were going to make the bigger splash in Year 1 of SEC transition…but damn, dominating Bluey in the Big House vs struggling at home vs Houston = save some castoff SEC pussy for the rest of us, because failing-upwards-to-victory against Arky today just isn’t enough.
  15. Ok so he likes service members that don’t get captured, calls those who died ‘losers/suckers’, insulted those who “earned” our nation’s highest recognition of valor, and now poses for a thumbs-up photo op in front of a dead trooper’s grave at our nation’s most hallowed ground? I will never understand how anyone even remotely connected to the military could support that guy. Anytime I’m in DC, I have to visit and catch a guard change. They’ve unfailingly guarded those remains for decades, from ice to hurricanes to blistering summers, walking so precisely the marble is worn by their footsteps. In the army, you have a better shot at going from boot to passing RASP (Ranger) to passing the Q course (special forces) to eventually getting selected for Delta than you do getting to wear an Honor Guard badge. Once again, dude somehow manages to denigrate people who have a drive that I’ll never be able to fully fathom from the outside…drive to give their lives to save their buddies or to serve a ceremonial role where you don’t even wear rank, silently suffering in the elements to honor others. /soapbox
  16. Well I can’t read the comments because I refuse to support a right wing billionaire troll…so I’ll assume that their statue of Mojo Jojo offends you somehow and the comments are full of manufactured outrage, bots peddling manufactured outrage, and a breathtaking circle jerk of fear and loathing. And you calling anything or anyone goofy, even in jest, is rich
  17. Trump, guns, religion…these people would have all been lining up outside Jonestown in the 70’s.
