  1. Say Anything absolutely resonates with me as a Gen X HS love movie. It's very Gen X and frankly I need to watch it again.
  2. That men's clothing line seems normal to you? Not even the Ducks Unlimited bros could sell that "outdoor fashion gear" to raging rednecks. Speaking of raging rednecks, both of Deion's kids have the initials SS. Shit's starting to make sense.

    Agreed, but that video hurts my mind in ways that makes me hate all of humanity and breaks me a bit. Permanently. Thanks for sharing, asshole.
  4. It's a different thread, but I think caring about cars carried on through all of Gen X. Back on topic, while I loved Daze and Confused I had actually classes with M.M. so that's a massive break that makes it not a HS movie for me. As a 90s tech worker in Texas, Office Space is real to me and I grew up with Beavis and Butthead. I think I'd have to put Heather's and Breakfast Club as my generational teen movies.
  5. This is very aggie. Very, very aggie. Let me try to continue this train of logic. Why even spend money on an Athletic Department. Just get a great football corch, and keep him for life.
  6. I know it's not completely in line with the spirit of the thread, but I came across on the other day that floored me. I was looking up stuff on Twin Peaks, fondly remembering the madly attractive women. Particularly Laura Flynn Boyle. Then I looked up pics. 2003: 2017:
  7. Well, that's on them! Doesn't change the reality.
  8. I'm not a LEO/former MP and last I checked I don't have corporate kill goons chasing me, but if I did, I don't think I'd decide to drive into a desolate dead end street under and overpass. But what do your wife and I know about it?!?
  9. My bad you're correct aggy and OSU are exactly the same.

    Seemed like she was mocking it in that post.
  11. I don't dispute the Michigan- OSU relationship is a goodly amount big brother little brother. More accurately it's OUsux - Texas : OSU - Michigan You were reaching and say what you will about OSU there isn't a comparison to aggy. With them or anyone. They're in a league of their own but the fuck ups at MSU are the only thing anywhere close. Damn you're all huffy.
  12. Absolutely true, and I'll openly own the guilty pleasure of these well written books. They're a fun read, intriguing and you know ultimately what going to happen.
  13. Not really accurate. This ain't me defending OSU, I promise. But Michigan has Sparty. You aware of wtf kind of stupidity has been going on there in the recent past? OSU has Ohio, Miami, it's their fredo as a friend that went to OSU used to say. So..
  14. You clowns have been discussing the best head coaching job in the "new" Big XII and there has been zero mention of the co-ed population at Arizona State? ASU is the answer and it ain't close. Good fucking God, this board has gone to the shitter. I haz a cry.
  15. I'm going to follow up with a curious and lesser know aspect of the gun culture. I'm a competitive shooter, IDPA and 3 gun type stuff as well as a person who's gone to multiple 3 days tactical training sessions. The shooting/gun advocate cross section in both those worlds (which are pretty similar) is an amazing cross section. The female uptick in the past 15 years has been HUGE. Further, I'll see current LEOs (which used to be the rarest oddly) to tech guys in 911s, females from all walks of life, pretty much ever race profile, to florist, EMTs, doctors (a surprising number), dentist and your big truck guys and gals. Most aren't big drinkers many don't at all, you have to be financially at least okay due to cost of gear, hotels and classes. All of them are extremely safety first oriented and most don't care about the skin color or sex of the person next to them. As someone who also rides it reminds me of that "fraternity". Granted, there are some divisions in both of the Harley riders vs rice burner nuance, but that's rare. Mostly it's just a like minded group that advocates for gun rights, gun safety and good gun skills. What's odd to me is I don't see many here or anywhere talk about the second amendment foundation which is and has been much more in line with my 2nd amendment pursuits/wants/concerns that the NRA has been for decades.
  16. I made it throught the entire Time Travelling Godzilla, After School Special: Our father cheated (like my hypocrite sister) and was a bastard child himself with Mae the annoying and self serving criminal "hacker" who hates olds. I absolutely hated how 3 grown ass 21+ adults had the lines and were treated like high school troubled youths. This show was a beating. Unless they kill off all 3 "good little children" in the first episode there is zero chance I'd watch another season. Otherwise, it was fantastic.
  17. If I was forced to pick a single celebrity persona that best defined Surly folks... it would be Daniel Tosh.
  18. I have to agree, and while I'm a closet T-shirt Michigan fan I despise ND. Still, those really are the 2.
  19. I'm in the "glad to see, well earned" mindset. Sark has issues but he's far exceeded my expectations and I hope that continues.
  20. If I can go to the Twin Peaks bar with Dennis Hopper (Yes I know, this is direct by Lynch so shut up), I'd listen to the band play it's a small world.
