  1. Lots of people prefer being able to pick seats without paying extra for the privilege. Every time I fly non SWA all the doltmuppets stand up and clog everything anyway. And I could GAF less about being in an early boarding group when there are assigned seats just so I can hurry up and be on the plane for 30 min while every dumb rube tries to find 12B so who cares?
  2. Cardholders still get one free. "A disappointment to some." Yeah, I'm sure there are tons of people thrilled to pay more for checked bags and that you are walking back the "flight credits don't expire" policy you just fucking added. Shitweasels.
  3. True Believer for me. GWIL, Gravelweed, title track, Eileen also right up there.
  4. Had been making some progress and paid off today with what I'd say was my best round ever. Shot 80 at Plum Creek as a 17.9 index, so net 62. Could've been a lot better, too, as I made a triple from 90 out, a double from 102 out, and a triple on a 150 yard par 3 when I totally gacked a 6 iron tee shot. So I was +8 on those three holes, +1 on the other 15, including going birdie-eagle on 8 and 9. Was super proud also after totally dicking that 6 iron on 17, had a 5 iron in on 18, knowing I needed bird for 79 and flushed it to 12 feet. Just ran it by the edge, sadly. I do have one lower score, a 77 at par 70 Mustang in Taylor, but this was a significantly better round overall. I followed that 77 up with a 108. I am playing Monday at 830 at Star Ranch, hopefully a better follow up this time! (Two spots open if anyone wants to play!)
  5. and yep she was dead 6 days, but he didn't realize b/c Alzheimer's. Also obv didn't realize dog was kenneled. Man God was sure on fire when he decided to include Alzheimer's in the ole grand design.
  6. Well, surely you aren't doubling down on hands that can bust, so whether our hand is revealed before or after the dealer runs out and does or doesn't bust is totally meaningless, at least from a win or lose perspective. You may prefer one way or the other for entertainment/sweat purposes, obv.
  7. Lots and lots of people are fine with the social aspect but don't really wanna be a pariah or get yelled at or drunkenly threatened. Go stand at a craps table and yell 7 and explain to everyone that it doesn't actually make 7 out more likely.
  8. This is 100% true but it’s also 100% true that he will at minimum get people pissed off and quite possibly harassed/berated. It’s of course an exercise for the listener to decide how much they care about the irrational emotional reactions of others.
  9. Basic strat is mathematically shown to be the highest EV play given a neutral deck. There are more 10 value cards in the deck than 2s, 3s, and 4s combined. The mathematical expectation of a card doesn’t change if it’s face up or face down.
  10. There's a video with Kattan here, he looks physically uncomfortable, but seems mentally fine: https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/video/chris-kattan-snl-50/ Also, I thought dang Cheri Oteri is looking a bit rough until I saw she is 62, and I slipped further into my grave.
  11. Finally watched the full vid. I never go on the run on her shoes bc I lose 100.0% of the time to the dullard who flats a huge raise out of position with T2o then check jams no pair no draw over a bet into four players and picks up the gutter on the turn. That river is a 3 for me always.
  12. haha I'm usually the villain here with the "what the fucking fuck" face
  13. Burnt Bean excellent again today. They had a Barbacoa boudin with a special sauce that was a sweet heat that was really fucking good. Tejano brisket taco, bacon ranch taters, street corn pudding all excellent additions to the Trinity.
  14. To expound - if our opponent is polarized to strong hands and bluffs, raising is a huge error (unless we think he is over bluffing and we can’t beat a lot of his bluffs). Imagine a game where there are 3 cards, ace, king, queen. Opp bets. We have king. Whether we should call or fold depends on his strategy with ace and queen. But we should never raise bc he will simply call (or reraise if allowed) with ace and fold with queen. A bet should always be able to fold out better or get called by worse. I suppose we got called by “worse” but as you note Axss isn’t behind in equity and is the only worse hand that calls.
  15. I see on the 1/3, I just think of chops as splitting the equity. Fair! On the other, if we think he has bluffs, we are just making him fold those by jamming, so I still don’t quite get the “I thought he was bluffing so I jammed” haha. And obv our equity doesn’t change no matter how many times we run it, so I never care what hand they have for that.
  16. Nice! Two questions: why do you think you’re only winning the AJ hand 1 time in 3? And why if you thought his 200 on the flop was a bluff would you jam instead of call and let him bluff the rest in on the turn?
  17. Had it on a Fletcher's at the fair last year and it slammed and went hard for sure.
  18. It isn't a perpetual thing, it was a one-time thing. They don't take any drop for it, it was just room-funded.
  19. Like for example, if I'd said "the next thing he will do is propose that the United States send troops over, level Gaza, and declare it American territory and build resorts there" you would have said "you're being ridiculous"
  20. That's not down the rabbit hole at all dude, that was their goddamn plan. If Congress has the authority to not certify "fraudulent" electors, then if the POTUS and VPOTUS and Congress declare a slate of electors fraudulent, then they are out. If they must approve whatever the State lege sends, then if the state says "we find fraud and we send electors for the other candidate" then that's what they have to send.
  21. I really like Dan's videos with Iona Stephens also, here is one:
  22. Incredibly wishful thinking, and lots of people disagreed about Pence's possible role, because the Constitution was not written to conceive of a world where a President cooked up a fraudulent scheme to remain in power. OK, let's play it from the other side. Say a state actually does send fraudulent electors. Does Congress/VP have to certify those fraudulent electors? Of course not, right? So if Pence/Trump/Republicans in Congress/state houses say that the electors based on Biden's "stolen" election are fraudulent, now what?
  23. No one said anything about "peacefully remain". If Mike Pence had refused to certify the election, what would have happened, in your opinion? If states like Wisconsin that went to Biden but had Republican state houses voted to send Trump electors instead, who in your opinion is stopping that?
  24. If someone said "Brent Venables can't win a national championship at Oklahoma" and I said "he came pretty close!" you could rightfully point out that I was being a moron. If someone said "Marcus Freeman can't win a national championship at Notre Dame" and I said "he came pretty close!" and you said "Nahhh, he wasn't close, it was clear they could never beat Ohio State" then you are dramatically understating how easily one domino can topple another quickly. Ohio State was the better team, but with a break or two one way or the other, Notre Dame sometimes wins that game. When "Notre Dame winning the championship" is actually "America dies and descends into fascism", we can't have them making the fucking finals.
