  1. yeah, that was from 2002 until Major got hired into the coaching world.

    they certainly tried...and they did not succeed. they are all largely forgettable while nirvana and pearl jam will remain all-time great pillars of music.

    if you are looking for unique and not imitable, it's hard to argue against cobain and vedder, along with freddie mercury assuming we are stuffing queen into "rock" which seems reasonable given that you are offering bowie. axl and plant also certainly defined a rock sound in a way that was undeniable. pre-1992 bono sound in u2 is pretty special as well.
  4. The battery on your meter is dead, you need to replace it.
  5. while arguing about matters of highly subjective aesthetic taste on the internet may be the dumbest possible way to spend one's time imaginable, this take is so insane to me that i actually googled whether or not butch vig used a dw set while playing for garbage as a possible explanation.
  6. as someone who just went through this...i think you need to clarify a critical point on the budget. is the $2,750 budget for just the 3 piece shell or is it all in with snare, cymbals, and hardware? also,
  7. this one will definitely make you feel a little bit better about humanity and a good reminder that there are still some awesome people out there working together for worthwhile stuff who don't suck.
  8. some good stuff from jwst... more near infrared outer solar system portraits to go along with neptune, uranus, and jupiter...saturn's turn. the reason the planet looks so dark compared to the rings is the composition - the planet has a lot of methane which absorbs infrared light while the rings are made up of a lot of ice and dust which do not. here's a supernova in mid-infrared from 22 million light years away. some of these observations are supporting the theories that supernovae provided a substantial source of early universe dust that was so critical to its evolution. below is some spectroscopy on the now famous ancient galaxies recently discovered showing tell tale signs of black holes with a mass similar to the one at the center of the milky way. these are galaxies that formed and existed only about a billion years after the big bang in the era of reionization so pretty remarkable. the researchers that discovered these two black holes are at the university of texas. this is the rho ophiuchi cloud complex which is the closest star formation region to us. lots of baby stars visible if you zoom in with protoplanetary disks that will eventually become solar systems. perhaps the great programmer has a sense of humor as it looks like south austin's mom's clitoral hood over a gaping vagina to me spurring life to me. this is a phenomenal, phenomenal picture of two stars in their early formation stage in near infrared. the disk of gas surrounding them is still adding to their mass as they grow. the big lobes around them are prior ejections of gas from the stars' formations. that happens when the star effectively "eats" too much material too fast and start spinning too fast, they eject out the material through two sided jets which helps normalize the star's spin and regulating how much mass the star retains. also, if you haven't noticed it yet on netflix, definitely recommend unknown: cosmic time machine. https://www.netflix.com/title/81473680

  10. look, i'm not gonna tell you how to run your business or your threads but giving a pretty compelling thread title about sending a fucking .50 caliber sniper rifle of fucking terror death to ukranian soldiers to kill a bunch of invading shitheads and then pivoting to hey guys, how about we send some fun rub on fake tatoos to boost morale is a hell of a turn...and a fun metaphor for european foreign policy.
  11. i generally am just a "whatever" kind of guy on all that and try to be generous with my exceedingly fortunate life outcomes but i took my daughters to see mario at the movie theater a few months back, grabbed a water from the cooler, carried it to the counter myself, checked out, and the thing was like 20, 22, or 25% tip? that made me feel like the theme of this thread.
  12. am i crazy to think that this chick looks an awful lot like a 20 year old you? is that you?
  13. i get so confused sometimes if zepol is really mexican. on the one hand, name is richard. on the other hand, he has a verizon phone with only 50% battery. on the other hand, he apparently spends half the year in alaska. yet, on the other hand, he actually likes the dallas cowboys. seems like a tossup.
  14. you, sir, should be nominated for business development for surly and made supreme ruler of the universe.
  15. your dedication to your craft is admirable and should get you put in prison.
  16. so did we settle on jerry garcia or dave matthews?
  17. it is fucking infuriating how much the race to the bottom is embraced by these awful, awful fucking people.

    Austin FC

    i was at the game on friday and that was some of the worst defensive discipline i have seen from a team that wasn't comprised of 8 year olds i think i have ever seen. this team is bizarre.
  20. that it is crash davis of all posters on here trying to rationalize this nonsense is pretty amusing. this is porterhouse/rex level dipshittery.
  21. birther/birth certificate/endless presidential eligibility litigation tied in with secretly a kenyan madrasa agent. there were 12 federal lawsuits and 6 state civil court suits in addition to 13 primary ballot eligibility challenges, 5 general election ballot eligibility challenges, and ten court challenges to ballot eligibility. that's a lot.
  22. Sound check with iPhone mic. DW set.m4a
