  1. Yeah, about that, California don't play around with in state tuition. For an undergrad with both parents out of state, the student has to prove they are completely independent (jobs, loans, etc) and have lived in state. There's none of this "pinky swear I promise I'm independent", you need documents. Ask me how I know this ... UCSB has dorms but there are a few that are off campus. Try to get one of the ones on campus because the off campus ones suck (according to daughter).
  2. My daughter is a senior at UCSB right now. Pretty much what everyone on here has said, great school in paradise. Only drawbacks are 1) it's expensive as hell if you're out of state and 2) there's no football team. If your daughter is like mine, she gives zero shits about either of those.
  3. Can you hammer a six inch spike through a railroad tie with your penis? Not right now.
  4. There's actually a blockbuster still open in Bend, Oregon. Though from the looks of their merchandise when I was in there a couple of weeks ago, they're making their money selling movie paraphernalia and other crap to nostalgic Gen Xers.
  5. I don't want to brag, but nailed it.
  6. Holy shit, just watched the very end of the trailer. Now that is quality humor.
  7. She did just have it stuffed, so looks pretty new.
  8. Hard to tell how I'd react as the father in that situation, but I definitely wouldn't start with "I'm not trying to judge...". I have to assume poor guy is still in shock, understandably.
  9. I'd hope some GM watches Bolden's OU touchdown and that 40 time and decides he's worth a late round pick. Hell, you know he can return punts too though I'd remind him that a fair catch is actually an option.
  10. now that is peak bitchiness. Who is more self important - sportswriters or Texas high school coaches?
  11. Makes total sense if your client is an accountant or banker. But if your client is in Hollywood where public perception directly affects his marketability, I think fighting it in the press also falls under zealous representation of a client's best interest.
  12. Your grandfather was military age in the 1890s? Are you armybrat's sock?
  13. That cost 300MM? I should move to Hollywood and produce really, really shitty movies and sell them to Netflix.
  14. You weren't fired up about beard at the time? The guy that took tech to the finals?
  15. Well I was not pleased when we hired a football coach with a well documented drinking problem who was unceremoniously fired from his last head coaching gig (at a blue blood, no less). Turns out CDC knew more than me. I'm not necessarily saying trust the coaches/AD, I'm just saying if I dislike a hire it has a great chance of working out due to my reverse Midas touch. So pencil in Texas as going deep in your future brackets.
  16. I mean, is this the one time that asking for pics of the daughter is actually appropriate?
  17. This has to do with 24 season since I just started Netflix, but why in the hell was Zak brown not in Azerbaijan? They certainly glossed over the fact that a team principal was just telecommuting to work in the middle of a constructors cup race.
  18. Of all the cop's decisions, this was actually the one that makes the most sense, if you think about it. Give her the van so she can haul ass if she actually feels threatened. If you flip it you've got some young girl stranded in Moab whose only option is to eventually get back in the van with him.
  19. My mother's neighbor was a terminally ill veterinarian who took his dogs with him when he decided to go. On the other hand, I know a girl who went through major depression who told me the only reason that she didn't kill herself is because she was worried about her dog. I'd say I'm closer to the latter, as I can't imagine taking a pet with me unless they were also sick.
  20. Just finished this having no idea about the video games and loved it. I'm not going to spoiler since it's been out almost a year, but how the hell did overseer brain dude in 31 and Lucy's dad not figure out that the folks in 32 had been gone for years?
  21. I had to do MRI a few years ago and told them you're either going to have to give me general anesthesia, or find an open donut MRI. Fortunately found the latter.
  22. Damn MIA, you're actually worse than I am. I can handle enclosed spaces somewhat but only if I conceivably (in my mind at least) have a way to get out. I could hide in a closet (insert nttawwt here) indefinitely but if you lock it I'm going ballistic. But for some reason I can handle planes- don't love being stuck in a big metal tube with dozens of people but for some reason I tolerate it. I've never had a cast but I imagine that would trigger it too. I suspect that I would also freak out at getting cuffed or thrown in a jail cell. Ok, I know that last one for a fact.
  23. TIL that Mona Lisa was once in a serious relationship with Chris Evans. Maybe she's the Pete Davidson of women.
  24. Which programs are the Alabama/OUs of the hoops world that are now losing a competitive advantage due to NIL? Sounds like KU for sure. Kentucky?
