  1. They don't make tall-sized clothing, so they can fuck off. Columbia and Eddie Bauer are my real friends.
  2. My mom was born and raised in Dubuque. I never thought a Scott Frost thread would hit close to home but here we are. Al, I've never been to Iowa and I can't ask my mom about it, as she passed years ago. She never really talked much about it. Would Dubuque be worth a visit?
  3. Wouldn't that make the eggs that much harder to crack open? Pretty soon, you'll need a hammer just to make an omelette.
  4. I put eggshells down the garbage disposal because I heard it helps keep the blades sharp. Dunno if that's true but it makes a satisfying noise when it destroys those shells, so I'm gonna keep doing it.
  5. If my wife started telling me her thoughts on Liz Truss and what it means for the UK, then I would agree with you. But she just talks about the dress so-and-so wore and what some kid's middle name is. These aren't "heads of state" to most people. They are characters in a long running prime time soap.
  6. The monarchy doesn't have much to do with "politics", really. They have almost zero power to do anything. They just hang out and do PR shit, mostly. So women (like my wife) can just have their princess fantasy and not have to think about government or politics. It's just a soap opera for them. Don't overthink it.
  7. Anyone else who dies today will never be remembered. It'll always be overshadowed by QEII.
  8. Even the sign lanuage chick on BBC is in all black.
  9. They said Katherine wasn't there either. Maybe it's strictly blood relations allowed.
  10. Why? Because some people don't like him? He's been training for this his entire life. I'd tell everyone to fuck off as I put that crown on my head.
  11. My dad. Born into a loving but lower class family, left home for the military and served 26 years (enlisted, not an officer). Then worked for the VA for another 17 odd years. Through self-sacrifice, hard work and shrewd investing, is now a retired millionaire. Never brags about his accomplishments, never puts himself above anyone else. Most importantly for me, he never said to me "I told you so", when I gave him plenty of opportunities.
  12. I watched Ep 1 and I thought it was boring as fuck. No hate on casting or any nerd shit, I just wasn't feeling it. I'm sad, FOTR is one of my top 5 films of all time and I wanted to love this. I don't have any desire to watch Ep 2.
  13. My dad told me that he and his three brothers used to fight to see who had to sit behind my grandfather in the car. Gramps dipped skoal and when he would spit out the window, it would inevitably fly into the rear window and nailing the kid sitting back there.
  14. Driving to dinner tonight, the wife sees a car that jogs her memory (sort of): Wife: Seeing that 4runner there, are you friends with So-and-So on Facebook? She just got a new car! Me: No, I'm not. She got a new 4runner? Wife: No. I don't know what she got. But she got a new "something". Me: Then why even mention a 4runner? Wife: Well, her sister has one.
  15. They really need to put in a clause that prohibits conference rematches in the first round. So fucking dumb.
  16. Sandman

    London

    I'll be in London the first week of December. Haven't been in over 35 years, I bet it's changed just a tad.
  17. Do you mean "8-4, meaningless bowl game" fucked, or "5-7, lose to Kansas" fucked?
  18. I just want to avoid another 23-16 Missouri St shitfest like last year. Dominate and get the backups some reps, please.
  19. I just can't fathom having the mindset that thinks a payment this high is acceptable. I'm not some 1% guy that pays cash for my car, either. Shit, my mortgage isn't that high!
  20. He and Ronnie are tearing down that wall in heaven as we speak.
  21. This sounds like some people that are actively trying to avoid going home. I used to do that shit too, then I got divorced. Now I try to sneak out early every chance I get.
  22. You mean, win a second one? Because he's won one already. If you mean he should have more than one, I agree.
