  1. Is 7 Top 50 defensive recruits good? With 5 stars at Edge, linebacker, corner and safety?
  2. All the obvious choices have already been taken, so I tried to do an alt version. Search and Destroy - Iggy & The Stooges (I prefer Iggy mix to Bowie mix) Roadrunner - The Modern Lovers Teen Age Riot - Sonic Youth See No Evil - Television Bodysnatchers - Radiohead Ghost Rider - Suicide The One I Love - R.E.M. Waiting Room - Fugazi Gloria - Patti Smith version Wolf Like Me - TV On The Radio
  3. Criticizing Nickel Boys for being "1-note" is one of the most unintentionally funny things I've seen written in quite some time.
  4. That Bama win is one of the 10 biggest Texas wins this century when taken in context of the previous 13 years of shit.
  5. For me, it's a combination of Letterboxd and the Big Picture podcast. The Big Pic is pretty normie/popcorn centric (aptly titled), but they do have special horror-centric episodes and other one offs, so it ends up providing a pretty good base of knowledge if you have an interest in keeping up with modern movies.
  6. Ha, now that you mention it, I guess I have noticed less "ignored post" notifications littered throughout every recruiting and football board thread.
  7. You were very surprised that a guy with 9 catches and 0 TDs didn’t get his number called in the biggest moment of the year? I lose track of facetiousness, admittedly
  8. 1. Blue Velvet 2. Mulholland Drive 3. Fire Walk With Me 4. Eraserhead 5. Lost Highway 6. Wild at Heart 7. Inland Empire 8. Dune Twin Peaks stands on its own. A goddamn genius.
  9. I think you are really underselling Mukuba. He was nails all year long, and the few times Williams has actually been healthy he’s not been near that impactful IMO. Big offseason for him
  10. Overall agree, but I think we’ll be noticeably worse at the beginning of the season. Replacing 4/5 offensive line starters, including a generational left tackle, is no joke. Losing Barron and Mukuba from the secondary is brutal; I expect that unit to take a big step back. The great thing is that our schedule is very manageable yet again. On paper, trips to Columbus, Athens and Gainesville should be the only real challenges. Plenty of room to have growing pains yet still win. Go 1-2 in those games and you are in the playoffs, and it’s all about getting hot at the right time.
  11. This post is certainly a good reflection of the mass ignorance level of our society.
  12. @South Austin wtf, did I miss the it’s Friday, assholes, thread?
  13. The AirTran connects every terminal directly to tons of LIRRs (not a subway, has luggage racks) directly into either west or east midtown Manhattan at all hours of the day, for $15. The AirTran also connects every terminal to 3 subways lines go to Manhattan. Much slower option
  14. As a 2x daily subway rider, pretty much every word of this is hyperbolic nonsense except with respect to LaGuardia. The subway is by and large frequent, fast and clean on the trains. Many of the stations are old and grimey, it is what it is. So are many of the stations in Europe. There are also a decent number of homeless people during real cold spells (like right now), but we don't have the social safety net in America to fix that in a humane way. You can take the LIRR via AirTran from any terminal at JFK directly to Penn, at which point you can take any number of NJTs directly to EWR. It's definitely not as good as the RER from CDG, but it's pretty great. But most people prefer to take a cab and have something to bitch about. This is hilarious. Won't someone think of the women and children! I need to text my wife to watch out on her way to work this morning! In any event, as someone who lives and works in the congestion zone, this is fantastic for me.
  15. Day obviously has the most pressure, followed by Franklin, and then there is a huge gap. Sark might have more pressure than Freeman just given overall program expectations, but I think the masses at Texas are pretty damn happy with the last two seasons and the state of the program, win or lose.
  16. I also was meh on cuckoo and thought trap and blink twice sucked. Loved TV Glow. Of your list, I liked em all except Heretic, which I found pretty boring even though I saw it in a packed theater around opening night. Romulus ripped
  17. Not as easily definable as music given festival and limited release schedules, but what’s everyone got so far? 1. Nickel Boys - RaMell Ross (the only 5 star movie I saw this year) 2. Red Rooms - Pascal Piante 3. The Brutalist - Brady Corbet 4. Challengers - Luca Guadagnino 5. The Beast - Bertrand Bonello 6. Anora - Sean Baker 7. Evil Does Not Exist - Ryusuke Hamaguchi 8. I Saw The TV Glow - Jane Schoenbrun 9. Longlegs - Osgood Perkins 10. First Omen - Arkasha Stevenson First Cuts: Chime (would be top 5, but less than an hour), La Chimera, madS, Haven’t seen: Sing Sing, Babygirl, A Complete Unknown
  18. Manning Fireworks - MJ Lenderman Tigers Blood - Waxahatchee huge drop off Dark Times - Vince Staples Challengers Soundtrack - Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross Brat - Charlie XCX Only God Was Above Us - Vampire Weekend GNX - Kendrick Lamar
  19. Question for the tailoring experts here. My dad has a military issued London fog raincoat from his time in the navy. It’s an awesome coat and I’d love to use it, but he’s a few inches taller than me and so it wears a bit too large in the sleeves and length. Is this something that a good tailor can address?
  20. It is, in fact, legal to smoke weed in public in New York (same minimal restrictions as cigarettes). For better or worse, we aren’t a nanny state like Texas. We can get high, gamble and watch porn as much as we please.
  21. Agreed. He’s actually played really well both playoff games. Had a few what the fuck plays (missed 4th down to Golden against Clemson, INT against ASU), but overall a pretty high level of play and was absolutely nails from 5 minutes on against ASU. He might actually be the best overall QB left in the playoffs. Howard obviously has better weapons and + mobility, but he at least equally as prone to WTF games
