    Getting old sucks

    since everyone in this thread is too old apparently... x,x,1,3,x,x,x,x,x,eh,x,2
  2. but the third bullet point legit made me chuckle.
  3. for all the people on this thread with good taste, sigur ros is playing bass on friday night with an orchestra. i saw this show in london last summer and it was extremely entertaining in a different way than your typical sigur ros show. would strongly recommend.
  4. as a citizen of the state of texas watching ken paxton continually and routinely embarrass himself, his office, and the entire state of texas by not just being an irredeemable piece of absolute shit, but by getting his ass kicked in court every. fucking. time. because he genuinely suck at it so bad (thank god).
  5. missed this the first time around. my prediction is no 2 or 3 star designations for austin. pretty much impossible. for one stars, the restaurants i see getting strong consideration are pasta bar, uchi, barley swine, jeffreys, and dai due. outside shot: luties (which shouldn't be), el naranjo, este/suerte, hestia, and maybe one of the omakase places. one that won't get consideration but should imo is juniper. if comedor was still doing what it did when it first opened, i would say it should get one too. was good when it first opened. now a complete pass.
  6. man, i came in here to peacock about...strut around and gloat about our first four whole points of the season and this thread is the fuck the big 12 refs thread from arsenal. anyway, no one cares but everton is briefly out of relegation...but we're still fucked.
  7. He’s a full grown case mccoy to me.

    Kidney Stones

    Exact same story except mine was at 7am in the morning with two toddlers. I will never forget that feeling of maybe if I go sit on the toilet, something will pass and over the course of 5 minutes sitting there, the realization of "oh shit, this isn't what i thought it was, i'm going to die now." seeing stars, insane levels of pain. luckily, i had a better hospital experience but the tordol wasn't that effective...and what it did do wore off in the middle of the ct scan. sorry man, this shit is the worst. hopefully it passes soon.
  9. Hans Zimmer in Ft Worth last night. Just a great show in which I’ve never seen everyone performing having so much fun. He definitely played all the “hits.” Also love how shamelessly and unapologetically he gets the sexiest soloists in the world and has them play in lingerie. Good crowd, not just super fans like @Sydney Cartoon. IMG_7512.mov IMG_7517.mov IMG_7521.mov IMG_7522.mov IMG_7526.mov
  10. what i imagine armybrat or handcruser's houses doing if anything ever catches on fire in near proximity.
  11. @Goredho and I went to the King Crimson show last night, watching Adrian and Tony Levin play with Danny Carey and Steve Vai. Played mostly 80’s stuff. Danny was incredible as you might expect. A bit of a new side to Vai doing more prog experimental sound stuff vs just speed playing. Enjoyable show. Here’s Danny doing his thing. IMG_7484.mov
  12. Not even close. While Johnny plays an idiot on TV, he’s nowhere close to a simpleton moron like this guy. 99% it is immortal13.
  13. so it seems perhaps you have come full circle. first, i am glad that you are no longer saying that the data is skewed because of quantum of population differences. that is encouraging. i believe this whole thing started with you professing your erotic commitment to our country's fetish with pew pews. someone made the point that this cultural phenomenon has led to insanely exacerbated violence perpetrated on the united states population at the hands of firearms relative to other civilized countries in the world. you then said hey, there's violence in other places as well, look at the u.k. and their stabbings. then we had a long tangent on statistics and per capita and population and white people and a whole bunch of other complete and utter bullshit. and now, it seems, that you are saying that we can't compare the united states violence due to firearms to other civilized countries because we have a culture that loves firearms and the other countries do not. now, i am no tolerant genius like yourself...but perhaps you could go ahead and make that last connection between those last two dots that bring it full circle. in case you can't, it would seem that you agree that our country's fetish with guns has created a unique, some might say even difficult to compare, environment with overwhelmingly tragic outcomes relative to the rest of western civilization and that it is your argument that it is SO UNIQUE, in fact, that it is not even reasonable to compare our culture with others. good talk.
  14. actually, i'm not. i just needed to kill some time for the last hour waiting on someone and this shit-for-brains helped me out. i then transitioned to contemplating the fact that i have to share roads with someone like this. not encouraging.
  15. you said most american states, now you're combining the two largest states. (you're still wrong by the way, california and texas combined still have about 16 million fewer people than germany.) don't get mad at me. i am just on a quest to understand and empathize with my fellow citizen. now that we have established that, tell me why it "skews" the data to do a per capita basis comparison between a country of 300 million and 84 million? again, please consult the central limit theorem in crafting your response.
  16. okay galaxy brain, i will repeat my question then giving you the benefit of your opportunity to correct yourself in stating that you intended to say that the countries are smaller than most american states, not cities. with the benefit of your correction, which states in the united states are bigger in population than germany (84.7 million) and the united kingdom (68.5 million)? last i checked, california is the largest population state so let me know.
  17. per capital? i'm not sure you do. germany has a population of 84.7 million people. the united kingdom has a population of 68.5 million. when you say those countries are smaller than most major american cities, can you point me to which american cities are larger than 68.5 and 84.7 million people? the idea of per capita statistics is to provide a contextual comparison on a more apples to apples basis vs. absolute differences...to unskew the data if you will. yet, you say that doing it on a per capita basis skews the data. explain that to me. how is it unfair to compare per capita data between germany and the united states? germany is not smaller than most american major cities. so what is it? just that they have a higher % of white people again? perhaps cite the central limit theorem in your response.
  18. do you understand what "per capita" means? what difference does it make that the comparison countries are "predominately white?"
  19. in response to the comparison of per capital murders between the united states and the united kingdom, this was your response: like i said, you are literally too stupid to insult.
  20. oecd countries are predominately male and conservative? france, germany, u.k., australia, canada, new zealand, belgium, sweden, spain, ireland...well known bastions of conservatism and apparently no women. i've never seen someone grasp so idiotically at the most bizarrely incorrect shit.
  21. you guys obviously missed where the "biracial" guy said that you can't compare them on a per capita basis because the u.k. is all white people.
  22. fucking LOL.
  23. you said unemployment was high today and that's why you would not vote for kamala harris. it is currently 2024. unemployment is at record lows as demonstrated by the chart i provided for you since i know you don't seek out factual information on your own. that's why i was interested in your take on the present economy and that unemployment was so high that you needed to send someone walking down a highway or something.
  24. also, @ElChupacabra, please stop ignoring this post and tell me how all of these mainstream outlets of information knew kamala harris was half black back in 2020 when no one gave it a passing thought, much less knew four years before she held a rally. was it sorcery? were there adopted biracial witches involved. how could anyone have possibly known that?
