  1. I reserve my judgment until I see how many scooter riders are hit by the Tesla robotaxis.
  2. Will read after I finish War and Peace.
  3. I've seen S1 and S2 multiple times, but haven't rewatched S3. I should do so before S4. I didn't dislike S3 as much as others on the thread, but overall it lacked the cohesion of the first two, and there was no one episode that I really loved like multiple episodes in the prior seasons. My favorite S3 episode was probably Tina's backstory.
  4. The not crying is becoming increasingly difficult.
  5. Getting rid of any coaches while retaining Trev Alberts is stupidity, so naturally that's what aggy will do.
  6. Yeah, I'm not seeing it either, unless there's an issue with what appears to be a conclusion of "justified homicide" at the top of this initial police report.
  7. The prior CEO was Yuge Maga. The current CEO is HD company career man, and this posture seems to be emblematic of sucking Trump's mushroom. But in scanning the internets, if the current CEO is a Trumper, he at least appears to be quieter about it.
  8. You say this as a joke, but it wouldn't surprise me if Pam Bondi has a team of DOJ lawyers currently working up an indictment.
  9. Home Depot says it will eat the tariffs. Home Depot plans to keep prices stable in the face of tariffs, bucking competitors We'll see if they stand firm if and when Trump makes good on his increase in lumber tariffs.
  10. It was Abbott’s understanding there would be no math.
  11. They can’t even say lesbian. It’s “women in comfortable shoes.”
  12. Yeah, that would be a beatdown. We've been to Rosemary Beach several times, and we've stayed with a friend in Breaux Bridge a night to break up the drive back, which is a pretty easy 6-hour drive if you don't get fucked by I-10 (a big "if"). Palm Beach is much further. So no, New Orleans is unfortunately not the right answer. I vote for Biloxi.
  13. His character has been for the most part one dimensional comic relief, which which he's played masterfully. But his performance when he found out his wife had kissed the other dude gave some real depth and emotion, and I thought he nailed it.
  14. Solution: Get Qatar to expand the airports close to his golf courses.
  15. I hope my son gets through the next four years of high school with as little fuckery as possible and then goes to college somewhere other than this shithole state.
  16. I recall getting off well within a week. My girlfriend (now wife) and I were determined to minimize the amount of time we had to have sex with me wearing a condom. I remember the tele-heath visit with the physician's assistant after dropping off my first post-op sample, when he gave me a ceremonial golf clap because I had gotten the live ones out of my system so fast.
  17. It's not so bad. His post was only 8,473 words long.
  18. Yep. My the technical term of my graduate degree is a "Doctor of Jurisprudence," but I've never heard of a lawyer going by or referring to themselves as "Doctor." And while I don't have any personal familiarity with the PhD track, my understand has always been that it's a hell of a lot hard to get a PhD than a JD.
  19. That's completely fair. I do think the Biden staff, fueled by desperation to avoid another Trump presidency, went out of their way to shield Biden from public scrutiny of his declining mental cognition. And I think a lot of fellow libs would agree with that. Whether they knew about and covered up a cancer diagnosis is another matter.
  20. University of Texas. I was in the College of Liberal Arts if that makes a difference. But after I read your post, I looked up two of my favorite professors (who remarkably are still there almost 30 years after I graduated), and they in fact have PhD's. I'm not sure if they had their doctorates at the time I was in school, but I'm all but certain the students addressed them as "Professor."
