Eat shit Kobie you fuckin scrub ass bitch
In Kobie's defense, he got "Blind Sided" by one of the dumbest mother fuckers in Lubbock county, and that dude is a big part of why he ended up playing for the Sooners. What you're hearing in his voice in that clip is regret. I'm not sure he would have seen the field for Tech this year, though, other than perhaps in the second half of games, as their starters only played in the second half in a couple of games. A similarly sad tale can be found for most of the hapless fools who end up at OU, except for Baker Mayfield. That piece of shit landed right where he belonged.
Kobie may well end up back in Lubbock to play for Tech next year, as he's gone from OU. It will be interesting to watch. I would make sense, especially as they appear to have landed a solid QB and could make another run next season.

I will say this... I always pulled for Tceh when they played aggy, not to mention the ass kicking y'all administered to Aaron Rodgers in the Holiday Bowl. We will forever owe you for that.
The day the BCS pairings were released, Cal quarterback Aaron Rodgers said Brown "was a little classless" for begging for poll votes to help his Longhorns, and that the system was "faulty."
The Longhorns, by the way, beat Texas Tech 51-21 at Lubbock on Oct. 23.
Texas Tech fans mocked Cal with chants of "Overrated!" in the closing minutes.
Oh yeah... I forgot how hilarious this was...
He also referred to Tech as "JV Texas" in that press conference. That guy has been a douche his entire life.

I am staunchly nonreligious, but I've advised many a single friend over the years who was stuck in a rut, and a couple who fall into the sadsack variety we're discussing in this thread, to just go to church. Any church. Nobody so desperately wants to help other people hook up as religious people. I think it's the subconscious drive to perpetuate the organization, or perhaps a desire to live vicariously through someone else having fun, but whatever it is, you'll have several matchmakers going to work within a couple of weeks. For someone with no comfort around women and who needs to date just anyone to get the monkey off their back, there is no easier way. Plus, church girls are easy. Once some basic skills are developed, they can then step up to trying to find more appealing women elsewhere. Also, you don't have to pay $9,000 to touch a single boob. A hearty after-service meal, a walk in the park, maybe a couple of comments that demonstrate a soul searching for meaning, and they'll be doing a whole lot more than that.

If we're being totally honest though, there have always been men who would have paid for this, if it had been possible to organize in their day. So I'm not sure I agree that this is some sort of novel social ill.
Agreed. Those inclined towards doomsday scenarios (like those indoctrinated by the doomsday cult that currently dominates our country) will see everything they don't like or understand as the sign of a failing society, because it's what they're conditioned to see. This behavior is what makes cable news so successful. In reality, this is not a large percentage of people, and the only reason incels are worth noting at all is that they have contributed a certain amount of violence to our society. The folks who are driving that anger for their own benefit are more worthy of concern.
As for the bigger picture, the birth rate isn't falling because young people aren't fucking. That's nonsense, even if they're doing so at a slightly lower rate than past generations. People don't want to raise kids anymore. It's too expensive and a giant pain in the ass. I get why young people are avoiding it. They're still fucking, though. Lower teen pregnancy is the primary driver of the lower birth rate in recent years, so perhaps teens aren't fucking as much, I guess. It could just as easily be the case that they're just smarter and more of them use protection.
The story in the OP is more about grifters making an easy buck off of sad losers than it is about any deep-seated societal ill, unless we want to discuss how open range capitalism allows for such grifters to operate with impunity.

Single (or even two) passenger car trips do not scale up well enough to replace public transit. Put 40 people from some rando bus in individual cars and see how quickly your road space fills up. Now do that for every person in every bus/train. Those Waymos ain't going anywhere fast in the parking lots every road would quickly become. That's in a city like Austin - it would be exponentially worse in a San Francisco or Seattle where topography limits the road space to begin with. That's one reason most of us in cities like that use transit at least on some of our trips. I drive for some things, take the train (or bus) for others simply due to traffic and/or parking issues at the other end.
Waymos are great for the "last mile" trips, for certain point-to-point trips where transit routes or schedules don't work, and for local errands/bar nights etc., and may even be useful enough in some circumstances to allow a family to have one fewer car. They definitely have a place in a city's transportation options. Just remember, though - every person in that bus or train is someone who isn't on the road making traffic even worse - even if it's in a Waymo.
The problem in Austin, as compared to cities like San Francisco and Seattle, since you mentioned them (and both of which have slightly smaller but similar populations than Austin), is that we do not have many people taking public transit in Austin now. It's not the same equation. I agree with your thinking here, in general, but I'm not sure that it applies to cities like Austin, where public transit has been available for a long time, but hardly anyone uses it, relatively speaking. You could put every bus rider in Austin in a car, and the difference in traffic would be negligible. It would absolutely destroy a city like Seattle, and definitely San Francisco, were you to do the same thing. Based on a quick and dirty comparison, just looking at bus rides since Austin doesn't really have anything else worth comparing, and it's obvious we're not talking about the same problems or the same solutions. This is something that has frustrated the fuck out of me for years when city leadership, and the loudest voices lobbying them, try so desperately to solve Austin transportation issues based on solutions that work in cities that look nothing like Austin. We keep getting folks who either move from cities with public transpo and have fixed notions of how it should work, or locals who have no fucking clue what to do so they look to cities the established systems for answers. That makes sense on the surface, but I've yet to hear anyone in leadership, or even a crazy on a microphone a meeting, discuss Austin transportation solutions framed within what actually makes sense for this specific city. I don't know if Waymos everywhere is the answer, but just because it's not the answer in Seattle or San Francisco doesn't mean it's not the answer here.
Austin
Population: ~1,000,000
Monthly bus rides: 2 million
Seattle
Population: ~800,000
Monthly bus rides: 63 million
San Francisco
Population: ~820,000
Monthly bus rides: 14-15 million
Ridership is still down in Seattle and San Francisco, like the rest of the country, since the pandemic. They were both about 25% higher pre-pandemic. Again, we're not talking about the same situation, and the same solutions are not likely to work. If we could magic a functional light rail system into exitence, and magic ourselves into a future where a populace unaccustomed to public transit starts to actually use it, then sure. But even in the candy land scenario where Austin has light rail running to all major areas of town coupled with an integrated bus system that can handle the last mile, you're talking decades before Austinites are actually using it en masse. Due to our addiction to cars, and our complete lack of infrastructure for other forms of public transportation, perhaps Waymos and the like are indeed a solid solution for Austin, at least in the short term.

The 90 million people who didn’t vote think you are talking out of your ass again
But those people are not bothering to engage in bothsidesism. As already pointed out, bothsidesism is really just taking a side. And it's always the same side.
There are plenty of folks who are genuinely independent, don't claim a party, and think they all suck, but they also don't tend to bring up the behavior of the "other side" when presented with a negative comment about one particular party. If they're truly independent, they're more likely to shrug and say "of course!" than to bring up the bad behavior of the other side defensively. It's incredible that anyone who does so actually thinks they're fooling anyone (other than perhaps themselves).

I've been working from home since around 2009, running a mid-sized operation with quite a few employees who are scattered throughout the US and overseas, all of whom are also working from home. Everyone I've ever interviewed truly believes they are more productive working from home, and that turns out to be true around 25% of the time. The majority spend their days fucking off until they get fired. It's not because they're not capable of doing the work; they're just not capable of doing it unsupervised. The work is deadline-based with no set hours, and we don't track time spent working, so it's a very black-and-white way to determine who is capable of unsupervised productivity and who is not. You either get your shit done or you don't. For perspective, these are highly educated professionals, not slack-jawed salespeople making cold calls or something. Once we find the right folks who are truly cut out for working from home, though, it works out really well. It definitely makes hiring and training more expensive and time-consuming.
As for me, after working remotely for so long, I can't get much weirder. If I were offered a salaried job for half of what I earn running my business, I would consider it just to shake things up.

He's actually a terrible fit for the Chiefs. He's fast as fuck so you want to be hitting him deep consistently. Except Mahomes has a terrible deep ball, for one. For two, the Chiefs have absolutely zero running game. What's the best way to hit plays deep? Have a threat in the backfield and use play action.
I appreciate trying to defend Worthy's lack of effectiveness, but the bolded is an insanely terrible take. Mahomes led the league in deep pass touchdowns and deep pass efficiency, damn-near every year of his NFL career before the last two. The lack of a running game and a shitty offensive line caused that recent reduction. I agree that Worthy is a terrible fit for the Chiefs, and part of that is run scheme and o-line issues. You can't hit deep balls when you have to get rid of the ball in under 2 seconds. Worthy also has yet to develop a game beyond getting deep. He is too small and weak to provide any of the crucial aspects of the position (like blocking) that would add value to a team struggling with the Chiefs' issues. They would be smart to trade him for a more complete receiver if they don't think they can rebuild the o-line quickly, but Tyreek Hill damaged the brains of their front office. Worthy would add value to a team with a solid O-line and run game, where he can run deep every play to stretch the defense and catch a couple of passes per game. That's all he's suitable for, but it's highly valuable on the right team.
Mahomes is a generational talent at the QB position, and anyone with eyeballs can see that. I appreciate some of you downplaying him because of where he went to college and because he's so active in supporting them even after going pro (and perhaps some because they don't like the Chiefs), but c'mon. Here's hoping he heals up quickly and thoroughly and goes on to put this kind of talk to rest for good. As noted already in this thread, he would benefit mightily from the Brady method of taking a pay cut to fill out the roster around him. But Brady needed that supporting cast more than Mahomes, as evidenced by Mahomes carrying a weak team on his back to the Super Bowl last year. Brady could never have done that.

I believe I first read this comment on this site, and it was spot on. Flying hasn't been the same since they lowered prices enough to let bus people fly. Airlines need to hike up prices, make the experience more comfortable, and get about 50% of the flying public back on the bus. The legacy carriers, especially, could surely turn a better profit this way. Even Disneyland/world figured this out during the pandemic. The poors can keep JetBlue and the like, I guess, but they need separate terminals for this to work.
If you can't handle your drugs, take a shower, keep your hands to yourself, wait your turn, etc., or if you're so god damn high maintenance that you'll have a panic attack over a window being open or closed or a seat being reclined or not when custom and basic courtesy dictates otherwise, you might be a bus person. It's okay.

For most of the health care majors there is a saying: if you think it's hard getting in, try getting out. You gotta find the right balance. Don't go for an easy major that boosts your stats but doesn't prepare you for the day in day out of the program and don't go for a hard major that prepares you for learning medicine but doesn't get you in the door because your stats are trash. My wife rounds with a geriatric medicine physician who was an accountant. Dude is really smart, very evidence based and has no interest in anecdotal stories when treating patients. My family doc is very thorough and was a music major at Tulane.
To your point about selecting an undergraduate program that prepares you for the rigors of med school, a music degree (particularly the non-education tracks) is significantly more difficult and requires substantially more time and effort than an accounting degree (or any other business degree). It's not even close.

It's too bad the father died already. I would prefer they both die slowly and as painfully as possible. Anyone who can do this isn't human. I hope the younger one suffers as much as possible before someone ends his useless life.

Good for Tech. He won't be their last good get this off-season.

Phones and other devices are banned at AISD schools. Access to video games, social media, websites, etc., on their Chromebooks is banned, with software in place to prevent it. Guess what 99% of AISD students do every day at school? Kids will find ways around this type of thing in seconds.
I appreciate the sentiment behind this law, but it's little more than virtue signaling, just like the porn ban in Texas. Legislating behavior doesn't work without the means to enforce, and the folks who support this type of thing tend to be the type who don't want to be bothered with parenting. You can't shield your kids from the world. You have to teach them how to engage with the world, the good and the bad, without being overcome by it.

Yeah, so even though being actual Christians probably doesn't hold much appeal to high school teens, and politics certainly doesn't, these kinds of organizations can attract members by other means, basically "cool kids" or "hot chicks" or just "joiners."
Of course, in our time, there weren't these social media incels, either. Then again, how many of them really join anything, except social media mobs?
I definitely attended youth services in high school because there were cute girls there. Both of the preacher's daughters ended up pregnant (not by me), so it seemed like good times were being had, and I didn't want to miss out. Alas, the church angle did not overcome my lack of game, and I eventually wandered out into broader pastures in my search for fun.
