  1. Who exactly are the “leaders” in Chicago?
  2. Who exactly are the “leaders” in Chicago?
  3. Cumulative graphs are scary. You should lock yourself in your house
  4. Some of you are confused between the definitions of protest and riots. At this point, I sincerely hope the cops and federal troops withdraw and let the cities burn. You’re delusional if you think the violence/riots are going to magically dissipate.
  5. Wife is a PNG grad as is most of her extended family. I personally think the whole name change game has gone too far, but I have gotten some pleasure out of seeing everyone get their uppity panties in a wad over this.
  6. Sure, never said free speech doesn’t have consequences
  7. Well, he does seem like he sucks, but it is his right to say what he wants. I don't believe any government entity should step in and force him to close for what he says. If he continues to be a prick and his bar sucks, which it seems like it does, let the market decide and he'll go out of business. Just don't go if you're offended. If enough people are offended and stop going, then problem solved.
  8. There is no “news reporting” anymore. It’s a race to be first and get the most clicks and stir up the most controversy. Sadly there are no consequences for these “freelance journalists”. They say, oops my bad, if anything at all and move on to the next story. From the so called journalists, it trickles down to everyone with a platform. Our society is fucked and the root cause is the media and social media and the look at me culture. I know there is nothing groundbreaking in what I said, but it needs to be shouted from the rooftops by anyone who wants to see real change in our country
  9. “Failure to comply”. Those words are chilling. It gives the enforcers way too much power. And it’s exactly why when I started seeing government officials issuing citations for “failure to comply” with Covid related orders, I started questioning motives.
  10. Yeah, I kind of knew it was coming. We had some previous conversations and I got the dreaded “we need to know how many days you have billed to this project” inquiry.
  11. Well I finally got the call, or text rather, to cease working on my project. Guess I’ll file for unemployment with the rest of the US
  12. Ring Energy announced the sale of their Delaware Basin assets yesterday for $31MM, about 900BOED equivalent. Their stock jumped 75% on the news. Anyone have a guess as to the buyer? I feel like someone overpaid in this environment.
  13. When the broadcast guy has to say “For those of you who don’t know what they’re doing..” I’m pretty sure that disqualifies it as the greatest tradition in baseball.
  14. standing around with no helmet on waiting for a play to end seems like a good way to get blown the fuck up by a cheap shotting Mormon. Most injuries happen when you aren’t going 100%
  15. I’d say those fans are the minority. Maybe you need better friends who aren’t assholes. I feel like my Sunday’s are dejavue of my Saturday’s watching the longhorns play. My wife asks me why I put myself through it. It’s because I’m a fan, and I’ll root for my team regardless of whether they suck or not. OTOH, I could just switch my allegiance and be a patriots and bama fan.
  16. I think the more relevant question is why do fans of other teams feel the need to check in on the cowboys every time they play and lose and post memes and talk shit to cowboys fans on social media? Why do y’all care so much? We cowboys fans know we suck, and have an awful owner. But we aren’t going out of our way to point out every time the saints, giants, texans, redskins, eagles, etc shit the bed.
  17. Also bugs me for flights with assigned seats and boarding groups, American Airlines, for instance, why board the front of the plane in the first group? To make them feel special? We all leave at the same time, if they boarded the back in group 1, the process would go so much smoother. I’m flying home today, I’m surly
  18. How about assholes on a plane sitting behind you that insist on deboarding before you
  19. A lot more surly-ites in the golden triangle than I would have thought. I was in and out of TPC during the last 3 years, that place always made me nervous. Right behind this one would be Exxon O&A and Exxon refinery. Always felt pretty safe in Motiva and Total one of my neighbors is on the emergency response team from TPC, Scary stuff
  20. I know you were being facetious, but....
  21. See Beto For one recent example. I’m not trying to argue either, one way or another. My point is that neither party is acting in good faith to the people they serve. I’d venture to guess that most all of America would be love to solve this problem. But our politicians get into office and serve for 25-30 years, become beholden to their lobbyists and begin serving their own interests. It’s been mentioned up thread, we haven’t had a shooting recently and no one was talking about it. You think they were diligently working on coming up with a solution on capital hill? Doubtful. But now, you’ll see the usual players flock to the media to get their air time, self serving, and tug on everyone’s heart strings. The usual republicans will begin talking about the slippery slope, misuse of red flag laws, better outlaw cars, etc. Never let a good conflict go to waste. Republicans do it every time there is a terrorist attack. Better hurry up and strip some more civil liberties from everyone. By the way, what happened to the children at the border who were being locked in cages? What happened to the squad? Our ADD population moved on and so did the media and politicians. It’ll be the same fucking story this time.
  22. See bolded part above. No one wants to have a conversation. You seemed to somewhat agree with what I was saying, but then promptly resorted to “but the republicans don’t want to do what we want”. No fuck that. I can play that game too. “But when you have one party who immediately says let’s confiscate all guns from law abiding citizens. And lets solve the immigration issue by not having a border!” Republicans suck. Democrats suck. term limits is a good start to solve most of our problems
  23. It’s fucking horrific, but my guns still haven’t killed anyone. I’m sure everyone advocating for gun control laws on here habe voluntarily turned in all of their guns, if you owned any in the first place. Rogan and Crenshaw has an interesting discussion on this, it’s so complicated that any one reaction is probably going to be an over reaction and not solve the problem. I don’t know the answer. I have one kid in 1st grade and a toddler. It fucking turns my stomach to even think of this happening in our community, but I don’t know the answer and I’m not going to shout from the rooftop that “this one thing”, whatever it may be, is going to solve the problem. Truthfully, until our politicians start acting like fucking human beings and not deciding policies on sound bytes nothing will be solved.
  24. So does aggy move up about 5 spots for eeking our a gutsy win against powerful SEC foe Arkansas?
  25. Yeah that 32.2 inch dot is fannett, Texas. Closer to 40 inches now, like bearschlong said, everyone who flooded in Harvey out here flooded again and lots of people that didn’t, flooded this time. I’m one of the fortunate ones that did not flood. Lots of people in need right now reliving a nightmare. We had 50 inches during Harvey but it came down over several days, most of this came down between 8pm last night and 8am this morning.
