  1. Sat evening I'm sitting on the couch, watching the end of the army-navy game. Its 6 pm. Wife comes downstairs and the following conversation ensues: Wife: Don't forget we're going to that play tonight. Me: Right. Wife: Its at 8. Me: Got it. Wife: We probably need to leave no later than 6:30. Me: Ok Wife: (Gives me a look) Me: I'll be ready by 6:30. Wife: Okayyyyy... Guess who was sitting in the truck with the engine running at 6:35, while the two female members of the household were not ready?
  2. That's one way to feed the seagulls, I guess.
  3. Elmo told the advertisers on twiiter to go fuck themselves, and I did nothing because I was not an advertiser on twitter. Elmo told the FCC to go fuck itself, and I did nothing because I was not part of the FCC. Elmo told the IRS to go fuck itself, and I did nothing because I was not part of the IRS. And then Elmo told me to fuck myself, and nobody did anything because who gives a fuck what Elmo says?
  4. Last time I flew to the LA area, I flew into Long Beach. Smallest American commercial airport I've ever flown into/out of.
  5. OU is a bigger rivalry, but I hate aggy so much more. OU is (usually) a worthy opponent. aggy just brings shame to the great state of Texas. edit to add: I reserve the right to rekindle my pig hate after we begin playing them regularly again.
  6. This Nick Fuentes guy is Troll Supreme. Convince me otherwise. The danger of course is that the MAGATs and fascists and christian nationalists are too stupid to realize that they are getting trolled, and will actually implement such plans if they take power.
  7. It is part of the aTm system. Its charter is to fight, prevent, educate and research wild fires. It is also involved in forest management, wildlife management, resource conservation, pest control, etc, but a lot of those duties are more the purview of other actual state agencies (TX Parks and Wildlife, Tx Dept of Agriculture, etc). I was not aware that it is in charge of any disaster response, other than acutally fighting wildfires. I presume that like other state agencies, it is staffed by primarily aggy grads. I had the misfortune to work for the Tx Dept of Ag for three years, and those fucks gave me shit daily about being a UT grad. I believe I was the only professional in the area office that was not an aTm grad. edit: may have been a Sul Ross or Texas St grad in the mix somewhere.
  8. Bullshit. your AI is wrong.
  9. all mammals can swim. And that's my contribution. (cue some asshole with the one exception to that rule)
  10. shouldn't the thread title be "Random wheels doing random wheel things?"
  11. If those community notes are correct, that guy is not a journalist. Newsflash, having a twatter account does not make one a journalist.
  12. free speech! one of those university presidents should have mentioned that during their questioning. edit: Hell, they should have mentioned everything in this post.
  13. I fucked a longhorn band trombone player sometime back in the 80s, so I'll always be band fan.
  14. It was their most modestly priced receptacle.
  15. Subway cashier (yeah I know) told me that everybody on the clock at the time split the touchpad tip.
  16. Here's a Rube Goldberg machine I built a few years back. Feel free to borrow any ideas.
  17. "ooze" jfc.
  18. Video cuts off right before AI says "All carbon based life forms must be exterminated."
  19. somebody on twitter tweet that to that fucker.
  20. The only way I can watch sports on ESPN, or any other channel for that matter, is muted with a strip of paper across the bottom of the screen so my eyes aren't continually drawn to Div II volleyball score updates, every minute on the minute. Oh, also DVR'd. I start about an hour after kickoff. After fast forwarding through the endless BK and insurance commercials, incessant replays, and mindless drivel they call a halftime show, I'm usually finishing watching the game right about the time it actually ends.
  21. pos rep for taking the pics when there is somebody sitting in the passenger's seat. Or maybe that's God, his copilot?
