  1. This is accurate. I maybe should've mentioned that I'm a tenured professor, and I'm telling my kids to do some community college before they hit the 4-year school. And I really don't care if they get a 4-year degree or not. Just find something you like, work hard at it, and make yourself indispensable. I still think a 4-year degree is generally the safest bet to higher income, but it's definitely not the only way.
  2. All I know is that I had heard for years about the evils of Ozzy Osbourne from parents, teachers, churches, media...I went to a friend's house in 8th grade and he put on the Bark at the Moon album. I thought to myself "I don't know if I'm going to hell or not, but I know I'm going to keep listening to this guy."
  3. Since we're on the topic of recruiting, I'm advocating for my kids to do as much concurrent enrollment and AP in high school, and then do a year at community college to knock out transferable credits. It's a hell of a lot cheaper, a lot less stressful, and it gives them time to figure out more about what they want to study in a 4-year college.
  4. Kreul seems pretty douchey. Good fit for ou.
  5. Ozzy was asked to summarize his bio several years ago. He said "Ozzy Osbourne, born 1948. Died whenever. Bit the head off a bat." I mean he left out some key achievements -- petty ones like creating the entire genre of heavy metal -- but it's still pretty great.
  6. Whoever was "somewhat completely responsible" for that post needs to be beaten upside the head with a copy of Strunk and White.
  7. Preach, brother. Speeding is never an issue in my '71 Super Beetle. And if the Beetle was good enough for Ted Bundy to pick up chicks, it's good enough for me.
  8. Disagree. I mean, I am really looking forward to kicking the shit out of them this fall as well. But I have enjoyed reading their whining and crying over the past few weeks, and I look forward to even more of it this fall...when we kick the shit out of them.
  9. That is just the dumbest question ever, even for an aggy. "I owe my cousin $500, but he just made a couple hundred at the tables last weekend, so I really shouldn't have to pay back the whole amount"
  10. Hey dipshit, might want to read a bit further in the thread before you start blathering about what ugly shit really looks like.
  11. People are just dumb as hell.
  12. Might as well have been "Guys, I'm grasping at straws to figure out how we will possibly stay relevant. Therefore, we don't need to pay attention at all to player rankings."
  13. He did three shows at the Bowery Ballroom earlier this year, capacity like 500. The guy just loves being on stage.
  14. Got mine for Denver. Family tickets set, plus an extra for me so I can attend the preshow soundcheck.
  15. I got my tickets to that Coors Field show. 4 for the family in row 21, and one 6th row extra for me for the soundcheck pre-show. Seen him several times but this is likely to be the last, so I went for it. Gonna be great!!
  16. Suck it, Dawgs
  17. "Are you okay?" "I'm pretty fucking far from okay."
  18. That was my bed for sure. Mom probably ordered it out of the Sears catalog.
  19. That apology was solid. We should buy him a sixer to say thanks.
  20. One of my favorite parts of this recruiting cycle is when we lose out on someone, we say "Texas has fidelity. They have a monetary cap on recruits, and they aren't going to go over and get in a bidding war...that's for someone like Tech or Baylor to do." Then when there's a chance to get a really solid player, the tune changes to "Holy shit empty the bank and go get that guy!" To be clear, I'm 100% on board with your strategy. Cooper would be a great get. I also know shit about fuck.
  21. This is my favorite surstromming video:
