  1. 100 bucks for a couple dog chew toys doesn't seem like it'll change my life.
  2. Yep. I live close to 380 more towards the Denton end. It's a nightmare heading to the tollway. I'd rather the land be an amusement park over another master planned community
  3. You can get like 5 weber kettles for the price of 1 Kamado Joe Jr.
  4. Damage is damage. I get that most have learned to live with it because there is typically no evidence and therefore nothing they could do, but this guy does have evidence. Would you guys pass it off so easily if you were there to witness someone sailing a grocery cart into your car?
  5. I'm surprised that so many surlyites don't give a shit about someone damaging their car. I'll quit telling my kids to be careful with their doors from now on.
  6. I'm not criticizing anyone that doesn't do "truck" things in their truck. My criticism is they're priced in the luxury vehicle range, and they still have deficiencies for those that might want to haul a boat to the lake. They'll for sure get there eventually, but I'm not ready to shell out an additional 20-30k over a similarly equipped ICE F150 to reduce my carbon footprint. I care about the environment, but I'm certainly no 1%er.
  7. I meant fiscally. Yeah I get that people don't travel long distances or haul anything heavy so it would work for them, but so do cheaper ICE trucks. The breakeven point from gas/service savings is going to require a lot of miles. Unless you significantly value the reduced carbon footprint.
  8. Yeah I doubt brodozers are going to get much satisfaction with electric trucks. I was 100% convinced a lightning would be my next vehicle because I'm just a weekend warrior towing a boat to the lake. The range under load just isn't there yet, which is apparently the same issue that the tesla semi buyers are finding out. In their current state, I don't really know why anyone would buy an electric truck. Unless they prefer paying a premium just to have something different. The way this country goes through vehicles, most would likely trade in theirs prior to breaking even from the premium price. I'm not factoring in any tax credits though. Those probably wipe out my assumptions. Electric sedans make a lot more sense to me.
  9. Unless Ford's battery tech is way behind everyone else, an electric truck isn't an option right now for anyone that tows a trailer. Their range while under even light loads is drastically diminished.
  10. She needs bigger boobs to pull off that costume.
  11. I don't know about the charges being dropped, but it doesn't seem like there'd be much of a case with a victim on the defendant's side.
  12. The facts are that he's a really good basketball coach that they didn't want to lose, so they were hoping something would materialize in order to keep him that wouldn't tarnish the brand any further. Nothing materialized.
  13. I doubt the DA wants to rely on a double recanted victim testimony in order to prosecute.
  14. Too many people not understanding that conduct unbecoming isn't limited to a felony indictment, and charges not being brought does not equal a false arrest.
  15. This one is extra fat for shock value, but I'd definitely hit 90% of what the industry considers plus sized.
  16. I'll wait until it hits disney+, and then watch it on my phone.
  17. The new animated Addams Family movies that dropped recently had Gomez and other characters more like the comic which I never read. Given the way they adapted for those movies, I think the comics probably sucked.
  18. Don’t know how original that is I grew up watching a lot of those tough man competitions on tv.
  19. I'm sure it will make all the money, but the first one was garbage. You are paying money to look at pretty colors, and watch a terrible story.
  20. It's not that it's easier because they're waifs, it's a physiological necessity. You can't simultaneously be a great endurance athlete while carrying the muscle mass and explosive characteristics needed for football or basketball. I'd say out of the major sports that basketball hands down has the best overall athletes. Soccer is all skill sport like baseball. Yes there is a minimum level of athleticism required to play, but beyond that no amount of athleticism can overcome the lack of skill. The USMNT doesn't need better athletes they need more skill.
  21. Mahomes isn't even close to an elite athlete by football standards. He has an elite arm, but that obviously means nothing on the soccer field. The current USMNT roster already has better athletes than Mahomes. I don't know dick about the hockey players they have listed.
  22. Your town doesn’t do firework shows using smokeless fireworks? I guess this is one of those moments where I realize just how bad the other 99% have it.
