  1. My lawn crew is looking for extra money, so I'll send those guys over to your place.
  2. Have you worn a pair of imitation Jams?
  3. My parents could only afford one pair of name-brand Jams. The rest were bo-bo's.* *Bo-bo's is the 1980s term for generic or knockoff-brand products like clothing or shoes, at least on the east coast where I grew up. Some of you will never know the humiliation of boarding the school bus and hearing others derisively shouting, "Hey, look at the bo-bo's South Austin is wearing!"
  4. Well, the world needs leaf blowers too.
  5. Ordinarily, people who drive under the speed limit annoy me. But I give all of them a pass on I35. I consider myself a pretty good and confident driver, but I white-knuckle it for some stretches on that corridor of hell. My parents live in Georgetown, and even thought it's farther and subject to tolls, I usually take 130 when I visit them and avoid I35.
  6. The best worst and the brightest dumbest.
  7. I chucked as much at the avatar as I did the dick on the goober truck.
  8. Why would his mobile device autofill the contact of a journalist at a rag lib publication?
  9. I can’t believe he’s turning a blind eye to this.
  10. Congrats! One of our friends' daughters has Colorado State very high on her list. Fort Collins seems like a fantastic town for the college years.
  11. I'd vote for Comedor. My personal preference: While I like a good steak joint, I think they're pretty "meh" for an anniversary dinner, unless your wife is enthusiastic about one of those places. Edit: Responding to Firemans4Horn, I echo the Este rec if you want to hit the east side. Really great food and a cool vibe.
  12. Stephen Miller: "Elon told me that Trump said it was okay to start bombing."
  13. Holy shit. I don't think I've ever seen Graham's pumper this low on sunshine.
  14. This is so aggy. A coach who never came close to a national title, with a 123-47-2 record during the demise of the fledgling Southwest conference, beating up on the likes of Rice, TCU, Houston, Baylor, post-death-penalty SMU, and yes, a Texas team for the most part mired in mediocrity. He also had a 3-8 bowl record, including 0-4 in the Cotton Bowl. This is how you get a statue in aggyville.
  15. Debate question: Is this more or less of a "meh" hire than Steve Sarkisian? I've become a huge fan of Sarkisian, but I recall I had a "well, okay, I guess so" reaction when Texas hired him. Maybe right now Sean Miller is feeling a little like that.
  16. It's the least he could do since he's probably never paid her.
  17. Today's bubbles are tomorrow's foam party.
  18. I've never had a Barbells, but looking on its site each bar as 20g protein, and the 18g of carbs isn't terrible, as that includes 3g of fiber and 5g of sugar alcohol. I'll often eat a Qwest Bar or drink a Fairlife protein shake to help meet my daily protein intake. With the amount of protein per day I need for my age and fitness level, it's hard to satisfy that with just whole foods. So I try to look for the least processed supplements that I can find an HEB.
  19. According to Fastbreak, he missed 2 out of 10 free throws in a youth basketball camp.
  20. Yes, and the one in San Antonio was heavy on the merchandising (i.e., clothing, hats, mugs, etc.). It almost felt more like an apparel store than a coffee shop.
  21. I went to one of those for the first time a couple years ago in San Antonio when I got in town early for a meeting and needed a coffee joint close by to hang out in. The name alone should've been a giveaway, but holy shit the inside screamed MAGA.
