  1. White Jesus quote checks out.
  2. I have an ultra-lite Poncho shirt that I'm happy with but I wasn't a fan of the regular weight fabric version (The 1969?) I had before that. I'd advise that their slim fit is a normal fit and their regular fit is a garbage bag fit.
  3. Not to mention that they’ve been in style with the young crowd for at least 30 years now. I don’t wear one either, but it’s time to get over it Gramps.
  4. Mine did. I wasn't excited about it and it hasn't changed my mind that most frat guys are douchebags. But it has been a good experience for him. Freshman year they were required to be at the frat house at 6am M-F for a 1 hour session with a tutor (not a student, an actual adult male tutor paid by the chapter). There's a lot of peer pressure to keep their house GPA higher than the others, which has been a better motivator for him than hearing me bitch about it when he was in high school. He was a very average student in high school and was trying to float the idea of not going to college at all a few times, now he's on the deans list every semester, albeit at a school not known for high academic achievement. They do some charitable shit, which is pretty easy to see that is more for appearances than actually helping the community, but it's more than he would have done on his own. I view it as paying for whatever it took to motivate him to go to school and work hard. He's a junior now and his habits are definitely drastically different than they were when he showed up. His peers are a bunch of engineering students and it has been good for him to be immersed in a group of guys who know how to study. Of course there's parties and drunkeness and high drama with the sorority girls too, but still it's been a net positive for my kid.
  5. But you can do the same thing without the cubes. And the cubes themselves are more fabric that didn't need to be there. This is the hill I choose to die on.
  6. I wasn't talking about her.
  7. Your Mom knows all about laying the wood.
  8. If you're interested in hearing Rod explain his thought process on these picks it's about a 20 minute podcast if you skip the commercials. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/on-texas-football/id1588401030?i=1000723306177
  9. Vasher and Westbrook's highlights are more fun to watch but we don't win the Rose Bowl without Huff's stop.
  10. Wait.. are you trying to tell me that social media accounts with names like #1 Fin Fan shouldn’t be trusted and shared as legitimate sources?
  11. Bentonville is a cool area. The Walton family has dumped over a $100 million into building, organizing, and maintaining hundreds of miles of mountain bike trails. While that’s a niche sport, it has become a legit world class destination for mountain bikers. The bike industry brings over $100 million to the local economy every year now That’s brought lots of improvements to the area over the last 20 years or so.
  12. I like how she names her unicorn zone Yellowstone right after showing the 2 leading men from Yellowstone in as her examples of too stupid to date.
  13. Other Sports. MMA thread? Wresting thread?
  14. That's not even possible. Didn't you read about the watchability rankings?
  15. Pretty exciting climbing finish today.
  16. Only one way to find out.
  17. The whole damn Visma squad just went down on a slick roundabout. Looks like everyone’s back up and ok but that was pretty crazy
  18. I lived next door to that place for a few years. It was a good barometer for figuring out which neighbors I might want to hang out with and which ones not to waste my time with.
  19. Pretty damn fast for a caucasian.
  20. I don't think mice have ribs that big.
  21. That exactly why you use more flaps for a short/soft field takeoff.
  22. Vernon Broughton and Jaylan Ford both got turnovers today in the Saints game. Broughton recovered a fumble deep in the red zone and Jaylan Ford picked off a pass.
