  1. Those are some of the best looking boots I’ve ever seen. Amazing.
  2. A quesiton about concrete, such as on a patio. I know all concrete will likely eventually develop cracks. Will some of those cracks typically go through the whole slab, top to bottom? I was under the impression most would just be surface cracks.
  3. Fuck ya let’s go. Follow that up with a video of nothing but Trump former cabinet members saying he is unfit for office: Barr, Tillerson, etc. That ad would kill.
  4. Ya it’s very difficult for me to envision those people, but I do think they are out there. They flip back and forth between R and D. They are not well informed. They don’t read past headlines of anything, so they just think “both sides”. They do dislike Trump, but when faced with what they saw of Biden and his frail condition, they rationalize that an asshole who will do anything to gun the economy might be better than someone with Alzheimer’s. It’s flawed thinking, but that’s what that group is thinking. I think I know some people that fall into this group but I’ve not asked them straight up.
  5. Also, Pelosi’s public statements have all but said he needs to leave. She is just giving him the opportunity to honorably withdraw.
  6. You’re working on a Jump To Conclusions mat, aren’t you?
  7. I didn’t realize that what we have currently isn’t Democrat chaos yet. Yikes.
  8. Got a good look at the next coach of the Longhorns?
  9. You are either being disingenuous or are truly missing the point. Someone pointing out that the US became a net exporter under Biden is a meaningless stat because he didn’t increase production much compared to the previous four years. As you yourself said, that’s just been the trend. Biden hasn’t done anything. And he shouldn’t get any credit for doing anything special, other than continuing the trend. But in fact, his trend has been worse than the previous four years, not better. That’s the critical point. It’s a completely misleading conclusion by the guy tweeting. You said “it’s fair to point out….” But, it’s not fair to point that out. It’s completely misleading.
  10. Ok now I’m absolutely sure Helobious is a bot account. The number of silent Trump voters in 2016 and 2020 was huge. No one could possibly be as wrong as this poster all the time. It’s a bit.
  11. We watch both the Astros and the Rangers. We noticed recently that we enjoy the Astros broadcasts way way more than the Rangers. The wife figured out why. Raymond never shuts the fuck up. He fills every available nanosecond of dead air with blabbing about something. And worse, they deviate off the actual game into various topics so often it’s unlistenable. I wish she hadn’t brought it to my attention. I can’t take it anymore.
  12. Michelle Obama gets the nomination, she selects Barack as VP, she wins the election in a landslide, decides to step down, and Barak is President for a third term.
  13. Man this situation is getting brutal. The Democrats are spontaneously combusting. They’ve got about three days to get control of their scene.
  14. Damn, AOC’s video from this morning is very sobering. She confirms the legal challenges in swing states if Biden withdraws. She highlighted that the coup group of Democrats are not united with a plan. She’s basically saying it will be a clusterfuck if he withdraws.
  15. I think there is too much “all or nothing” thinking around racism and misogyny. There are ranges and levels of both. Sure, there are a lot of people who simply don’t like the idea of a women or black in a position of authority, but a lot of the racism and misogyny out there is around preconceived notions about a person based upon their race or sex. If the candidate demonstrates competence, that can be overcome. It’s why Obama got to the top and why Hillary almost did. Harris can win by going apeshit on Trump’s flaws, misdeeds, etc while at the same time playing up her law and order side and slightly tamping down any extreme left positions. She’ll win the middle with that.
  16. He was -51 when I posted. His banning warms my heart. I feel like I really accomplished something today.
  17. It would please me greatly if the folks on the recruiting board went ahead and negged all the posts from cb866, as he not only has the brain of a walnut, he appears to also be quite the douchebag. Let’s just go ahead and fatwa him out of here.
  18. Wow, you just made yet another completely wrong statement. Incredible.
  19. I’ve told this story on shag before and I’m telling it again. When Leaks was at Texas he came and visited my elementary school in Austin. As an elementary school kid, he looked HUGE. It’s a day I’ll never forget. Some 40 years later I ran into him at the Cotton Bowl during Texas OU. We had a good laugh about our first meeting. I looked him in the eyes, and maybe had a half inch on him in height. I’m 5’9”. He was my first Longhorn idol growing up. He was nice enough to sign an autograph
  20. Wait what? He was supposedly ready to be a major factor.
  21. What about distance from kids and grandkids. That’s our problem or we’d already be there.
  22. This is awesome. Now a bunch of snooty assholes can use the system to grift extra money from people who think food must be insanely expensive to be great. Good times.
  23. “A Tale of Grift, Espionage, Rape, Lying, and Corruption Without Consequences”
  24. Holy shot the worst I’ve ever heard outside of Roseanne’s bit.
