  1. Fuck off to anyone who uses the old "if a person is crazy he's going to find a way to kill a lot of people. are we going to ban cars next?". It has no relevance to a discussion about how to reduce mass shooter events.
  2. I've been assured that a big fence would keep all immigrants out of America and that ladders don't work on fences. Boom. Problem solved.
  3. Dear people who do an essential and thankless job that I'm too lazy and unqualified to do, Enjoy this shit pay so we all have the peace of mind knowing you're doing this for the "right reasons." Hope you don't get killed by a lunatic acting as a human shield protecting my kid. Enjoy being poor. Sincerely, Braff Zacklin
  4. He'd just offer you $.40 on the dollar after he finds out that 60% of the posters are Derka socks
  5. Hey @UnivTex34, can you explain what in my post quoted above, that I tried SO FUCKING HARD not to cloak room, that would compel you to neg rep me? I've had some whiskey, and I fucking hate bitching about rep, but when you see a giant "fuck you" finger on a post about the challenges that our educators, wives, and children face on a day to day basis, it kinda pisses me off. Be better, asshole
  6. That’s because we woefully underfund our public schools. We have decided it’s too expensive (read: we will never raise taxes ever) to retrofit our existing infrastructure to provide the necessary safeguards to protect our children from these kids of tragedies. Fuck, many of the schools in Austin have multiple portables with no more protection than a latch lock. I’d be interested to know what district the poster at the beginning of the thread lives in whose kid goes to a school with bulletproof glass and armed guards at a single entrance. We can talk about the second amendment all we want. That’s a discussion for the cloak room. But we won’t even consider allocating public dollars to infrastructure improvements that could help make it more difficult for active shooters to successfully carry out these horrific events. We’ve got 35+ kids to a classroom. No armed cops or security guards on campus. Portables. Underpaid and over stressed teachers and administration. Shit, my wife is an elementary school counselor in AISD and they received literal death threats during pride week. The reasons for which are probably a cloak room thread. But I hope we all can agree that teachers and school administrators shouldn’t have to deal with death threats for political reasons, or from psychotic 18 year old fuckfaces like this guy. Something has to change. A lot of things have to change.
  7. Well, considering one of their mothers was just executed by their own son, I'd say you got your wish.
  8. Started this on Sunday night and finished it today. Fucking incredible. Loved it. Can't wait for Season 2. Finale answered just enough questions and set in motion a ton of shit for season 2. I figure that I don't have to spoiler anything at this point, as the series is like two months old now. But plot-discussion below.... Obviously outie Irv's having crossover memories, as he's been obsessively painting the entrance to the testing floor, probably because he's been sent down there to "reset" multiple times. As for why he's investigating Lumon, who fucking knows. I'm inferring that people who have been severed either are experiencing these "crossover" memories leading them to investigate Lumon. Or that they just have a sense that something is fucked up. What I don't understand is why these "outies" continue to go to work if they're feeling something isn't right about what's going on with their "innie" selves. I think they'll have to address that in season 2. If Irv think's something's fucked up, why doesn't he just stop going to work and get a new job?

    They've switched to counter service with a food runner. No servers. I think that's more than fair.
  10. Well, at least everyone else in a 150 mile radius is gonna get rain

    I still love Dirty's, but I went there last week and a large DH, a side of cheese tots and an iced tea with a 15% tip came out to $20. That's pretty fucking expensive for what you get.
  12. Breaking news from Vegas - The spread on the A&M/Bama game is now up to Bama -72.5
  13. This tweet would have been great without the last sentence. He made a good point. Then he had to go all political and fucking ruin it. He seems like a twat waffle.
  14. The reigning Biletnikoff winner is a 5-star? Huh. Who'd a thunk?
  15. Probably was something else that killed him. Definitely not the highly toxic toad poison.
  16. Mercer is a great value as well.
  17. welp. I guess you shredded cheese fans are fucked

  19. There are things that are not on the app that they will make for you if you go in and ask for it. My wife hates whataburger. It's one of the biggest triggers for arguments in our marriage. She will only eat their "grilled cheese" which used to be on the kids menu but they took it off. It's just cheese griddled on texas toast. Can't order on the app, but they'll still make it for you if you order inside. They'll probably make anything with shredded cheese if you ask them to, as long as they have it in the store. I don't think they can stop buying shredded cheese unless they stop serving taquitos.
  20. Racists? Are they sure?
  21. I have tried, and like, every single one of the El Gallo salsas. I can say that they label the red jalapeno emulsification and the green jalapeno "mexican homestyle salsa" (which is more or a traditional table salsa) as "mild". They're not exceptionally spicy. But they're not suitable for people who are averse to spice. So don't make the same mistake I did by putting it on a kid's taco before you try it because it's labeled "mild". There's some kick in those two.
  22. So you're Evil MoPac?
