    Kind of, its been a while… now I’m thinking of Staind. 

    Interesting, I didn’t pick up on that. He’s a bit nasally though. I don’t think it really matters unfortunately, although I’d love to be wrong. 

    Jesus your musical taste is almost as bad as which politicians you choose to support

    Do you think it will bomb?

    I had a similar feeling. I think it's going to be a blockbuster at the box office, but I've built it up in my head so much that if it isn't better that the first 2 Godfathers with a side of Shawshank I'll be disappointed.

    actually I'm curious if you have any insight or thoughts about the changes in Surly's dynamic over the past few years in comparison to similar sites. Are TigerDroppings, Texags, etc going through the same things? 

    My general feeling is that certainly there have been huge shifts (increased polarization) in America broadly but with boards like this it's also a demographic shift mostly centered around younger people not posting on sites like this. But maybe you're aware of other sites where that is not the case. It would be great to figure out how to grow with that demo regardless of the trend - I don't think reddit or tiktok or threads can really replace what something like Shaggy/Surly can be.

    A TikTok of pedobear at the bowl game would have gotten a shit ton of views

    Yeah... Jordan is due for another good performance  at "The Open".  

    He seems to play better at events where creativity is rewarded. 😋

    Jordan: I'm going to bounce it off the Titleist trailer over to the top of the tent and let it roll gently onto the green

    Greller: (under his breath)I know I'm going to get blamed for this

    Looks like bent grass. Those greens always seem to take divots, even repaired ones, really poorly in Texas.

    Don't sweat it, I've missed worse. Still love the game.

    We need a ruling here.

    Divots are caused by the club hitting the turf and pitch marks are made by the ball hitting the turf

    Or

    Divots are any blemish of the turf

    One of the things I collect are Bowl Game watches. Here are my”dupes” (1946 Cotton Bowl Elgin, 1960 Cotton Bowl Hamilton, 1984 Cotton Bowl ladies watch, 1996 B12 CG Seiko, 2003 Cotton Bowl Fossil and 2010 Rose Bowl Fossil). Anyone have any to trade?

    Even more than that it’s basically a football and recruiting website for just one school. 

    pre COVID there was definitely a more vibrant variety, pre 2016 it was one of the premier news aggregators for Texans. Certain things happened that got people to go elsewhere or get flamed off the board. 

    The plan is definitely to cultivate the variety poster again, but it really hinges on Texas being good and then people seeing the rest of the board for what it is. That was the recipe for ShaggyBevo, unfortunately we lost a lot of the variety in 2018 in the move and it was already trending that way with the toxic rhetoric that was happening in the “news” blaming people for things that involved government instead of just news. 

    We also haven't had any cartoon dicks posted in quite a while

    “It’s really cold here. I think I would like to move to one of the hottest places on the planet.”

    Morons.

    I bet a good portion of those transplants are women who also turn the thermostat to the max hoping it will cool/heat the house more quickly.

    Every time I read about Phoenix being the fastest growing place in the US it blows my mind.

    Why would you intentionally move to one of the hottest places on earth?

    My cousin lives there. A few years ago he heard a crash in the garage in the middle of the night. He goes to investigate and the plastic shelving had weakened due to the heat and weight on the shelves causing them to collapse.

    I’ve been married for 31 years, but roughly the last two decades, my wife started saying “you know what I’m saying” for every F’ng thing! I really don’t know where she picked that up, but “You know what I’m saying?”

    Hook’em!!!

    Definitely

     

    Hook'em!!!

    Good. 
     
    This sounds callous, but with human nature as it is- think about if the US were in a war, and the government only allowed supportive media, and most of the deaths were prisoners, migrant workers and the most impoverished? People don’t start paying attention until it starts hitting closer to home. 

    College grads would never be mobilized in the US. They won't let 100k in student loans die in combat.
