I'm choosing to believe it's a sign of a minor stroke.

It's 6th Street, you knobs. He's being sarcastic.

Elon Musk: Nazi traitor piece of shit [Confirmed]

Sure, in small numbers. There used to be like 10 in Houston, at least. Now I think it's down to 1 or two, and they're both in suburbs far enough away to make them nonexistent. Plus I'm not sure I want to muck through the used books deemed unfit to maintain ownership by the enlightened people of Copperfield or Katy. Lots of RC Slocum biographies. -
Someone walked through it. House sends it to the senate, the senate has to pass it, Trump can veto, then Congress overrides. But make Trump veto releasing the Epstein files, lol.

The disappearance of Half Price Books is one of the things I really lament. I used to go to the one by campus once a week with my buddy and pick up old editions for like a buck apiece. And when older, I'd often go browse on Sunday Mornings. -
If you're referring to the TD, I don't really think it's fair to blame Guilbeau. That was an absurd catch. We weren't favored to win, though, which was the question.

Can that poster be 6th Street? He needs to be diving head first because the fucking spot the second he begins the slide is horseshit.

How'd you feel about Sark when he was hired at Texas. Holy shit, this guy is going full Spider2YBanana. Might want to see if he's raided the drug cabinet at the clinic. -
You're both a father, and an old white dude. Sounds like you show up with bejangled Ed Hardy jeans and a salt life t-shirt to the parent teacher conferences and accuse your kid's teacher of being "sus."

Well reading and listening activate different areas of the brain, and exercises different mental muscles. But at the end of the day, I think it's really just personal preference. You might not be missing out on anything at all, personally. I'm not the poster that claimed it was a Hill To Die On, but I mean, for me, perhaps I'm just dying on the hill of verbal pedantry that listening to a book is not, by definition, reading one. Because I'm on surly, therefore I'm an asshole. Personally, I enjoy reading, because I enjoy holding something solid in my hand, and the act of marking progress page by page. I also like that I'm forcing my brain to construct a word, then have to reach for the imagery associated with the words strong together and create the image in my head. I think reading is better for stretching and reinforcing vocabulary than listening. I like re-reading things, as other posters have said, if I find it striking or touching without having to hit the rewind 15 second button over and over. But that's just me. It doesn't mean I won't tell people who watch the movie instead of reading the novelization of a movie idiots, or wrong, etc. Also, just to remind everyone, including myself, that Elon Musk is a fucking piece of shit. -
No, you Tennessee Orange and Burnt Orange Are The Same Thing Blind twat.

My wife and I watched that series when it came out. Found it kind of meh, but it was definitely pretty to watch. Can't argue w/ $4.
