  1. What more can you do? I'm really enjoying the football board regurgitations about Sark and Flood. They're just as fresh and enlightening when regurgitated 20 times as they were the first time that vomit slapped the floor! We. Get. It.
  2. And don't forget the acquiescent who can't be bothered to vote against what Trump is and represents. It doesn't matter why they don't. They're okay with (absolutely) whatever happens. If only we could find the right messaging! 70% of this country is fine having this man as president. The people have spoken or nodded.
  3. Yo! He's from Jersey. Wadda you know about it?
  4. This has been quoted so much, that I was forced to think about the actual content. Think of the scope of this claim and how you won't see a fan anywhere else say this about a team anywhere else. This is the essence of my obsession with that cult-ure. They (TexAggies and their ilk) are so sure that they must be God's favorite themselves because of their purity, honor, courage, decency, and humility that their rival blasphemes by being better in every aspect aside from a few colleges within the universities. With this insane conviction, they are like inept, babbling stalkers who don't instill fear nearly so much as they invite ridicule. And you must keep an eye on them. Occasionally they come too close and must be shoved with force to the ground as a reminder that they are not facing the fairies they declare us to be. They respond like the Black Night in MP and the Holy Grail. Again, I'm talking about the Aggie cult not all Aggies. I think now the majority of their student body are students like anywhere else. Plenty of intelligent Aggies who feel the same about their school as I do about Texas post around here.
  5. Do you work at CNN? The Times?
  6. It's all so obvious and farcical that it's difficult to parody. Stewart is brilliant. I'm sure this is good, but I'm OD'd on absurdity from real life; I don't even feel like watching it.
  7. He's glamming up his little black tent with gold painted or plastic chairs. Klass! Laand of the cucks and ho-ome of the tame. No bottom. No generation is homogenized. The end of WW2 got America 50% of the world market. That inflow of wealth changed everything. That generation gave us the National Security State, constant state of war with somebody, the rape of Latin America, The School of the Americas, and they were as greedy as any generation. It's not genetic. It's not inherent. Maybe the worst thing that happened during that time, and I noticed it at the time, was changing the branding of conflict with the communist countries from Liberty/Democracy versus Oppression/Dictators to Capitalism versus Communism. Gordon Gecko. The wonders of the market. Greed is good. That doesn't start in 1980. All of this was in the air. It doesn't arise from the hearts and minds of the masses. The masses react. Believing there is a big difference in the people from one generation to the next is silly. Believing that's where the real conflict lies is counterproductive. Future generations will hate us all and rightfully. Is it only boomers driving to their cubicle job in giant pick up trucks? You think boomers alone elected Trump? Do you think boomers are the only ones denying the coming climate cataclysm because they won't give up hamburgers or private transportation to save their own fucking kids? Those kids will rightfully despise all of us. They won't single out a single generation. They'll see the big picture. Boomers suck as much as anybody. Maybe more. Who gives a shit, their (our) grip is loosening. Take some fucking responsibility yourself. Adhere to Sgt. Hartman:
  8. They were putting out two movies a week. There was huge variety. That's what's missing now. Less variety=fewer opportunities for excellence. I'm not sure whose idea your alluding to. I don't make that claim.
  9. Well boys and girls, in today's episode of Irony-deaf Oafs, we travel to TexAgs. They're the ones who scorn others as arrogant and over-rated. See if you can find the mirror in the picture.
  10. The Hollywood studios are not interested in ideas. They want reliable franchise properties. That means sequels. That's why every multiplex fills 12 screens with 4 movies. They've created an audience for it even if it is repetitious. If the people want the same swill over and over, give them the same swill. There is no incentive for the businessmen and women who now run the studios to risk their money on anything new. Not too many decades ago, you actually had people who loved movies running things, so they'd take some chances on smaller scale movies. There are plenty of creatives in Hollywood with good, new ideas. Nobody in power cares.
  11. Blue Lights is outstanding. Line of Duty is also outstanding. I'm sure someone has already mentioned Shetland. We watched all of that and Vera. Hard to turn any of these four off once you start.
  12. They got him for room, board, and $32 a week after he tested the market.
  13. We turned on ABC news just because it was the first channel after FOX. Ana Navarro saved that broadcast from the usual stupid template. She spelled out the big picture. One point she made was that there was a winner of the last election who was blocked from taking office. A legitimate government was right there for the installing. The US had an actual chance to invade another country for good purpose and be cheered by the citizens. Pluck Maduro. See the crowds cheering. Place a Venezuelan leader who has been voted in. Exit. For the first time since WW2, we actually champion freedom and do the right thing! Sadly, it doesn't fit our brand. As I watched the replay of the press conference, I was recalling when that would be run on all three networks with virtually no other options for viewing. Everyone would have seen the babbling, lying, POS embarrassing himself and his country. There'd have been an outrage, I think. I wonder if that were the case today, how much would be different in politics with everyone more tuned in. That was maybe the most disgraceful speech ever given by the military regarding an operation. I guess Trump is tired from supervising the writers. We talk like it's already privatized. They stole our private propert and we demand compensation! This the very essence of what was so wicked about our Latin American policies. Take the national wealth at gunpoint. If American corporations lost shit in Venezuela, they made bad business decisions and are the only ones responsible for the loss. We shouldn't use the Army to protect the money of our oligarchs.
  14. A sample of Aggie perception of reality seen through the Cam Coleman competition. I have no idea or prediction about where he will end up BTW. Seems we're always desperate, not them. This is pretty impressive. An Aggie finds a new way to turn a defeat into moral victory. Liked you so much that he took a better offer and left you. Winning! The Collective is winning me over on who the better QB may be. At least it's close based on the "entire season of activity." How was your season of activity? Very good. We were 11-2 for the best season of activity in a long time. The magnetism of Kyle Field. Nor because he rejects the amazing school and family or great memories for the future! Don't sell Marcel short. He threw lots of interceptions.
  15. But think how much more fun it would be to declare what is an actual martini/fajita/chili/bbq at a friendly gathering. People love that guy!
  16. I'm sure the next iteration of Superman 2 years from now will blow your socks off. In the meantime, we got Spiderman and Batman to entertain us.
  17. Oh, please go loud. Just like your pitiful wailing when the SEC invited t.u.! Please don't throw that pie in my face! Sly move, William. Say ya don't wanna then substantiate the rumor. You're confused, O Great Street Parking Lot Fighter. You can't truly believe we feel threatened by you having Marcel Reed coming back for a hat trick of losses to Texas, can you? Anyways, please lead the national campaign claiming Texas is worried about Marcel Reed stealing recruits from Arch Manning. The few who pay attention will laugh.
  18. 1 I guess somebody has to or is William twisting your arm? He's afraid of Dreamy Brauny, or he'd twist one of his magnificent limbs, too. 2 Goin' on the list! The Big List! Book it. Mark it down! 3 Jason heard smoke. That's pretty remarkable because, as he notes, it's pretty quiet. 4 There seems to be quote mark epidemic at A&M. What does "visit plans" actually mean here? Gonorrhea? Private jets? Writing skills? Anybody see any coherence in that last sentence? I don't. Aggie College Men
  19. You don't want to lose the offensive coaching team that managed a field goal against Miami which just beat Ohio State by a bigger margin than the Aggies. It's remarkable that these coaches from the new OC on down weren't poached by other programs hoping to emulate A&M's offensive success!
  20. They already have a miserable streak of not winning that conference. They need somewhere fresh. Tech would have destroyed A&M. William! Yep. It should be familiar. Watching your betters play after the pitiful end of another A&M football season. Also, you're wrong about nobody favoring the Aggies. You had them on your website all season. Now get to work building the new rollercoaster. This year it will go all the way to the top! Aggies raging about having to play Miami is chickenshit city. You were the higher seed at home. Even if you didn't start against them, you'd have eventually had to play them at a neutral field. You're just pining for a playoff win against somebody weak. Loser attitude. My God, what a fun weekend. Go Indiana!
  21. Two legendary programs. We (and Michigan) sort of learned what it feels like when somebody like Michigan or Texas roll into town to play a non-blue blood. The win carries prestige beyond other games. I thought I saw that on the field from both teams. Until it got a little chippy towards the end, I felt like I was seeing respect on the playing field. Sideline clowning ain't shit.
  22. Nah. I thought I tuned into a football game not a talk show. I hate it when they do this except for the time Elko was interviewed dressed in a sweatshirt and looking like a regard.
  23. I thought so. Thanks for saving me the trouble of looking it up to be sure.
  24. Tech's defense is fun to watch. Bet Oregon wishes they had 9 points instead of the thrill of being aggressive and failing.
