  1. I think the biggest draw for KSU / ISU was the snow itself. I watched merely to see the teams battle it out in the snow. It could have been Grambling State vs Harvard, I would have watched given the same weather.
  2. That's cute. You think they go to a parlor for their tattoos...
  3. Come on, take it easy on the poor guy. And your mouse. That's a lot of clicks.
  4. MUD trumps the HOA where I live. MUD says STOP WATERING YOUR LAWN, then there's nothing left to mow in a few weeks.
  5. Our freaking microwave has a new feature that's both good and bad: when the timer goes off, it beeps at you for like 5 seconds, and displays END on the clock, and that's it. Most other microwaves beep every so often until you clear / cancel / end the timer, but this one doesn't. So every morning without fail, the END is left on. Gets irritating when I use the microwave clock for time.
  6. Bringing about the new stat: what's the average game length by conference. I feel like B12 games have to be pushing 4+ hours, while other conferences can knock out a game in 3:15. I feel like in the PPV days without commercial breaks, games were sub-3 hours, too.
  7. I mean, the infrastructure alone is going to cause a huge problem. Water and sewer weren't designed for 2x to 3x the number of units in the area. I know there's already plans to redo most of the main lines in Austin due to deteriorating pipes, but this will put a huge stress on the water treatment facilities going forward if it's implemented in any drastic way. I think I watched maybe 2 minutes of it the other day, but the argument that I keep hearing is HOME will lead to more affordable housing. Says who?! It's a grift backed by developers and realtors, and until you find a way to keep people from building luxurious tiny houses on their property and charging a premium, it's going to be the same problem but at a different scale. Scarce inventory, high demand, priced well above the market. BUT, to refute the teacher argument up-thread, yeah, 220K might be high, but a lot of teachers are part of a dual income household, and can afford it. Plus, a down payment doesn't seem to be factored into this. They could be selling a house in the burbs and rolling the equity into a new place, which could drastically reduce the mortgage payments. Only downside is they're paying for 500MM of homeless funding and a train to nowhere in their taxes.
  8. I'm with you on that. I have mine on a timer to shut off at 10pm, but I've got neighbors on the side and across the street that have lights on all night that shine right into the windows, and it drives me NUTS. And our HOA has a policy against leaving lights on like that, but only bothers to police if your trash cans have been at your curb longer than 24 hours.
  9. People crap on them daily, but there quietly doing their jobs, throwing the crazies in county better than most. I'd be curious the arrest rate now vs prior to Covid. Bet it's close these days.
  10. Again, this thread is for Big 12 stats. So take out Alabama, Rice, Wyoming, and rerun those numbers, and you'll see it's a whole different look. Texas goes from 4.6 penalties per game, down to 4.1 just using conference games. Conf only: (Games, Penalties, Yards, Average Yards / game) All: (Games, Penalties, Yards, Average Yards / game) So using a little extrapolation, for the additional 3 games, our opponents were flagged 18 more times, or an average of 6 flags per game. 6 opponent penalties puts us roughly in the higher to middle part of the stats according to TeamRanking: But using the overall season average, we drop to 124, but our Big 12 average would put us roughly 129-130 if we had 100% conference games. So tell me there's no influence from the conference refs again...
  11. It's like there's stats out there that show us what in-conference games look like... Not sure where the heck you're getting those numbers...
  12. Well, did you deserve the ticket? Don't screw up someone else's life because the parking goon is a moron* *unless said vehicle is registered near BCS or Lubbock, then ignore.
  13. Shoot, I would argue it for sure in court... But I'm not a lawyer, I just argue like one on twitter.
  14. Did you just ask his asshole to suck on your dick? nttawwt
  15. Did you take into account your appraisal value getting bumped up, too?
  16. At the end of the regular season:
  17. FIFY How can you EVER call that a mistake, unless you're talking about the coffee?
  18. Hooking up a trailer is exponentially easier given the cameras. And backing into the garage and leaving the truck as close to the wall as possible so it'll fit is made possible by the backup camera. Lost count how many times I've parked it in the garage without tapping the wall once.
  19. Wife gets mad when she catches me coming on anyone else. Especially if I'm pretending to be some cheese-head.
  20. Running into the kicker is 5. Roughing is the 15 and a first down.
  21. Roughing the kicker if I've ever seen it... BS call they knew would be declined.
  22. Holy hell if I don't get crap for spending 30 cents more on an item. I'm immediately told I can't do it right, and she insists on going to the store herself. Followed by her getting beer and produce from Target the next trip she goes on. (NEVER buy beer from target, you have no clue how long that crap sits on the shelf, same for their produce). After a better part of a decade, she's got me on board for buying HEB brand stuff over most name brand, but she still has to buy the Up and Up brand crap when it's a tier or two below HEB. Drives me freaking NUTS.
  23. DUDE, stop calling him back in here. Just when he's gone, you go and summon the shit-stain...
  24. People are using your email address as a burner. The dots in gmail are ignored. Another really fun one: dicksmallz+IsADoucher@gmail.com will ALSO deliver to you. Anything after the + is ignored. So you can use your email and add a tag, e.g. DickSmallz+surly@gmail.com to register for sites and filter accordingly. I've got the same problem with some asshat in Wisconsin that has been using my email address to register for everything. Dumb ass even registered for Tax Slayer using my email address. I went and reset his password, changed the 2FA phone device, and locked him out. I've now got his address and SSN, among other things, after he's been doing this crap for 5 years now. He's adopted a dog under my email, sent his kid to school and registered him under my email (took everything I had not to reply back to them and tell the school to unenroll him). And somehow, his phone number is always delisted when I try to call him to tell him to stop.
  25. He did more for our city and state than most politicians. He was a former fireman and EMT, then transitioned to SWAT. Dude literally dedicated his career to his communities. We have dipshits in city hall that dedicate their career to bike lanes. I'm not a cop, nor have I ever been one, but the guy was a hero, and I hope his family sees how much he was appreciated. Evil Mopac was clearly to blame on the traffic setup.
