  1. And so we are all clear, ALL of Gen X is completely fucked up. We just don't give a shit.
  2. Treat women like humans, approach them as humans, be kind, ask questions and listen. Believe in yourself and be respectful.
  3. That happens to men as well. Don't make this a purely misogynistic issue because it fucking isn't. That's a progressive mindset looking at a complex problem hoping for a simple answer. There are lots of factors involved.
  4. It is NOT just men, its both sides of the coin. Here is a tad dated article talking about the women's side. UPenn Article on Gen Z women Then its the broader issues related partly to social media and other issues. Business Insider link on Pew Research It's a myriad of factors across a very broad range of the Gen Z, but to be clear it isn't limited to them either. People don't even meet new people in bars anymore, forget men picking up a woman in a bar. They don't have the social groups either. How many Gen Z folks are putting up tailgates or traveling for Longhorn games without their parents while in their 20s? Thats just one example relevant to this board. Lots of social and psychological items related to the issue.
  5. I'd call it a really funny meme if it wasn't written seriously as a furthence of their myth and propaganda. But... it is a funny meme for all non-aggies so...
  6. Whose sock is @WineGuy69?
  7. Tell me your favorite memories about the best cupcake game that Arch didnt start or play. I'll hang up and listen.
  8. My Flavor of trip But I've never seriously considered booking a trip there. Certainly would, but haven't.
  9. I'm admittedly a little sad no one even noticed the website name of the beach pic I posted.
  10. Selective Memory, how does it work?
  11. 18 most beautiful beaches in Iran
  12. The framing and lighting work on those flag shot is.... not great.
  13. WASHINGTON - President Donald Trump vetoed an Israeli plan in recent days to kill Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, two U.S. officials told Reuters on Sunday. Paywall Link to Reuters Article Media source is good, person quoted is at your discretion.
  14. Oh, so now you're wish casting arguments that never happened. Way to move the goal posts and not provide the receipts.
  15. Yeah, that and it ties to his ongoing "We need this war to end" talking point that he's used both with Ukraine and now Israel/Iran.
  16. There was an article in Reuters about it but my search skills suck so here is another source which I can't vouch for on Israel but appears solid and legit: New wave of Israeli airstrikes In the hours following the attack on Israel, Israeli fighters once again struck targets in Iran. The IDF says Israeli fighters “attacked dozens of targets in Tehran,” claiming it has eliminated all air defenses and achieved full freedom of operation in Tehran’s airspace. Again, I happened upon this page, but it has a lot of references and appears to be aviation oriented. It lines up with what I read on Reuters. I'll dig more to see if I can find the article from Reuters but in the mean time. Air attack discussion on TheAviationist.com
  17. What the fuck are you talking about dude! This never fucking happens on Surly. You are completely making shit up you delusional fucking weirdo. Show me one god damn instance of this ever occurring. I'll hang up and listen.
  18. Holy shit, that's delicious!
  19. Fixed slightly for accuracy
  20. Yeah, but they won the Basket all National Championship in 2020, or so said the Florida state senate!!! I mean they didn’t win a single game in the non-existent tournament but, thats a power house right there with there 1 final 4 appearance and 3 ACC championships.
  21. If you'd like to have a conversation or discussion I'm happy to do so. Feel free to provide input on specific points. Provide some perspectives on why you disagree with my takes. Not just shit on my takes which I've openly admitted are simplistic. Further, I've also admitted I'm happy to read other perspectives, ideas and information as I admit my own ignorance. If you want a juvenile shit talking partner, I'm afraid you'll have to look elsewhere.
  22. If you don't think psychological make up of individual leaders plays a part in how they make decisions, we've nothing further to discuss. Particularly, if you don't understand nor acknowledge that one of Trumps core characteristic is bully tactics. Happy to discuss any points or thoughts but I'm not interested in juvenile shit talking.
  23. Getting ahead of the surges is the name of the game. Find those diamonds in the rough before anyone else spots them. Sark is so far behind, it just scares ya to death.
  24. It could be, I suppose, but I'm of the opinion that Israel sees what's going on in the global space right now as an opportunity. With Ukraine making progress on Russia and the US now leaning their support that direction indirectly weakens Iran. China while currently "friendly" with Russia certainly isn't a friend. The US has a bully POTUS who cares about 3 things, power, money and his legacy. There is a potential for our POTUS to help Ukraine defeat Russia AND potentially help Israel take down a caliphate regime on the precipice of Nuclear power. I'm happy to be educated by those more knowledgeable than me, but I can't think of a better time in this generational conflict with Iran than right now for Israel to finally take down Iran. It would be a massive feather in the cap of both current leaders in the US and Israel who love that kind of shit and so do their supporters. Edit - Personally, I would be shocked if Israel is not all in on this round with Iran. I am fully convinced they are at the no quarter given point with this conflict. I don't know what I don't know, and that's most of it. So I admit my own ignorance and I'm reading the tea leaves at a simplistic level. I'm happy to be educated if there is something I'm missing, its truly why I join these conversations. I enjoy the thoughts and input from others, both those who agree and disagree if they provide sound logic to their reasoning.
