  1. I'm on staff at a university that is not UT. Every semester we have a handful of undergrads, and maybe two or three grad students working with us. Being around these young un's is definitely a positive for me. Yes, they can sometimes be lazy, entitled PITAs. But they are smart, funny, and (mostly) fun to be around. I much prefer them to the post docs I have to work with. We got a box delivered a few years ago that was labeled "fragile". This 19 year old coed saw it and said "must be Italian." Gave me hope for the future.
  2. I realize nobody wants to shit in the airplane bathroom, but damn.
  3. Two hours before the game on Sat, wife texts me that there is a huge rattlesnake in the back yard and the dogs are going crazy. I replied "Bring the dogs in. By the time I get on tomorrow, the snake will be gone." Sure enough, Sunday evening, no snake. (probably a black tail, very common where I am. I see on on the road all the time this time of year.)
  4. Well, I certainly hope it didn't pay for that jacket and pants.
  5. From an undisclosed location, in a hidden cave, on the wrong side of the Rio Grande--- IMPEACH THAT MOTHERFUCKER!!!
  6. No I agree. There was an at least equally egregious non call at the end of the third. underthrown by Ewers, of course, but obvious PI by defender.
  7. Yeah it was PI. Even from the nose bleeds through the sweat, booze, and tears, it was obviously PI. I guess the only argument that could be made was that the ball was un-catchable.
  8. fair however in south and west Texas, a pair of nice cowboy boots and a nice cowboy hat make blue jeans (no holes, not faded) business attire.
  9. Let me get this straight: Some scientists employed by the federal government studying the health effects of alcohol recommend that you probably should keep it to two beers or less per week, and a god damned senator from the largest red state in the US goes full moronic meltdown and in some kind of performance video claims the libs are going to take away beer while awkwardly "drinking" a beer? Do I have that right? Federal scientists need to recommend senators from red states not shoot themselves in the head.
  10. Unpossible. I was told Joe Biden is destroying the country. We simply can't survive another Biden term.
  11. and who very gracefully conceded, for the good of the country.
  12. FDA recommends only two beers a day, but for Rafael, they recommend two gallons of the hard stuff every day.
  13. This part sounds sus: The proposed amendment also would allow the legislature to define the term “child-care facility” and to establish additional eligibility requirements to receive the property tax exemption.
  14. I want a shirt that says "Jack Smith 2024. Fuck Your Feelings."
  15. correct me if I'm wrong, but everytime AISD does try to close a school, there is a shitfest with parents of that school getting all butthurt and protesting (and suing, maybe?)
  16. I wonder if these idoits would be equally outraged (if at all) if a kid were to be sent home for wearing a pride rainbow flag?
  17. Does that guy in the black tac vest have a club foot?
  18. Welp, I guess "hoping" (or was it "praying"?)there wouldn't be a hurricane this year isn't such good policy.
  19. literally any other school, I would have said that flag is fake or at least photoshopped.
