  1. This thread on TexAgs concerns their favorite Aggie, Johnny. I couldn't care less about the list. Of course, the Ags want to celebrate JFFB. Oh wait, third fucking post: Post #7 Let's see, the subject is basically great QBs; they immediately think of VY and then argue he really wasn't that great. They even dredge some old shit nuggets about how the game was given to Texas. I don't know if these guys met later at the Dixie Chicken to saw Varsities horns off together or not.
  2. All that money he put into a children's hospital could have got us into the final game.
  3. That's mostly an oldies but dummies thread, a parrot fest if you will. This was new: He understands our underhanded, toxic ways as his brain is squirming like a toad figuring us all out.
  4. Weigman was to be maybe the greatest QB in the country. Now many of them say their season was damaged because the played a "back-up" QB. You can only use that if you're forced to use a back-up not if the second team guy has been promoted. Their DL would devastate all opposing offenses as Elko was back, baby! They claimed over and over that they had the seventh most talented team in the country. They got to November feeling vindicated. Now it's the refs, Sankey, first year coach blues, and installing a new culture that justify the crash. The party line is the lie that most of them thought 8-4 would be a pretty good year back in August. And, hey, they were just one win away from going to Atlanta! You're exactly right. Thanks for reminding me.
  5. Don't you call me a child. I'll go outside and fight you right now! I'm a full grown, mature woman! Put up yer dukes! In the end, the MAGA right's destruction of irony may be it's most painful stroke.
  6. I don't think they're going to suffer, either. I must be particularly opaque today.
  7. I was just humoring my notions of what should become of such persons not trying to go metaphorical, though I see how you took it that way. Nope. It'd just amuse me to see them thus captured and hanging with the doomed fish. Billionaire marauders bring that out in me. I once lived in a republic that scorned robber barons rather than exalted them.
  8. You trying to get us all killed?
  9. We binged it over the weekend. Very good. I thought the Abish resolution was contrived, but the rest was gripping. Thematically, I found it an interesting and sorta new way to indicate the rapaciousness of the westward moving Americans (White man). The Mormons and the US are fighting over who gets first claim on territory that isn't actually theirs to claim. All the while, the people who belong on the land are subjugated and slaughtered almost as a footnote. All have elements of savagery as seen in Red Feather's decision about the prisoners he takes control over. Shea Whigham as Bridger is the soul of the movie. Kitsch and Gilpin and the rest of the cast are very good as well. Director Berg must be an attractive draw for actors.
  10. Some surely will. The ones already benefitting from GOP policies. Duh.
  11. From the Friendly State to the Rapine Republic of Texas. Taking the enlightened out of enlightened self-interest one education dollar from the electorate at a time. I've never experienced a military rout. But I am experiencing that sensation watching an unchecked enemy sweep across my country. In the fight, I was determined and passionate. In defeat, I feel like a resigned refugee. A watcher and only a watcher.
  12. So...Sark leaving is considered highly unlikely? I'd like to stand down from DEFCON 1.
  13. Couldn't help myself. I'll stop after this.
  14. There's a lot of usable language in that cartoon. Piss cloud perm? I'm using it.
  15. This country can't keep enough apples on hand to put out wildfires and not enough Finnish Forest Rakes™ to prevent them! We did when we were great! I say we build a wall around the fire and have the Finns pay for it!
  16. I think we can all agree that Chase Bisontis is the standard all teams wish to attain. I mean, come on. This poster is on the wall of every natty wannabe recruiting coordinator's office. But how did William get from skill positions to Bisontis? What the fuck is William talking about? I get the pandering about the Texas schedule, but after that? Future SEC generations of football scholars poring over the 2-year stretch? That being cracked by A&M? In the future, A&M will lead in football conference studies of past SEC schedules? WTF?
  17. But I won't be looking much at this when we're between portals. Well, I'll check in from time to time for CTJ's mean posts about me.
  18. Yes, I'm sure my objection will start pages of discussion that nobody cares about just as the speculation about Blue's draft spot did before it. I would have thought that you were using "whining" ironically considering the nature of your own post, but I see you didn't get the light-hearted spin I put on the notion of negging someone. Sad that you miss the irony in your whiny post. There's also irony in you defending boring derailments as you, as well as I, have whined about them. By all means, a nuclear neg-off. You get me. I love that.
  19. The fact is that Blue has announced he's leaving for the NFL. The discussion should be what Texas will do about it. Fuck off with speculating about the combine or pointlessly arguing when someone will be drafted. Here, nobody cares. It's boring. No high fives for guessing Blue's 40 time to the hundredth of a second. I know it's a terrifying prospect, but I'm going to neg this shit from here on out. That's right: neg. You're all on notice.
  20. I have never in my life read a top ten movie list or heard Oscar nominees without recognizing a single one. I still don't know what to think about that. There was a time when I went to a movie at least once a week. It does indicate that the studios are not in the business of producing any quality movies of scale. The creative inclinations and love of movies seems totally absent in this Comic Book Era. It's not news to anyone that for quality film/video, the longer format of the TV series is the place to go.
  21. Wow. Just wow. The power of an echo chamber populated by parrots. Perceived by whom beyond Texas Aggie nutjobs? Hammuh time! Again, we're the delusional ones swayed by our own hubris. I will agree that the Aggies are irreplaceable in the way that a goiter is. Oh yeah, we're the entitled ones, too (mo hammuh): A&M should have got special treatment when the SEC expanded. Due to their leverageable position, I suppose. They're important, a real program, if you will, with great weight to throw around! They got nothing while everyone else already in the SEC got...uh, got nothing special. A&M really showed the league their greatness with their vote on inviting Texas and OU. Manly manful men of masculinity! SEC used to be so grand. Then tu came along and broke the tight bonds that A&M built with their brothers o'er the many decades. Team records three years prior to Texas' first year in SEC: Somehow Sankey propelled us ahead of you in one year not three. Da Hammuh is back in de house bringing infallible logic:
  22. Just browsing TexAgs. One thread starts with the usual dishonest generality. Seems we're the delusional ones: A plan to monetize eratz drama through conspicuous consumption and conspicuous calling out. I'm likely repeating something that's been referred to, but they started two threads about the below and both narrowed it down to a t-sip initiative: As you can see, Texas to the SEC is what the article is all about. The parrots take off at the slightest stimulus. An Aggie Fact abirthing. It's crowning! Usual small dick energy touting manly manfulness. Psssst. You do act like it. It's why you're so funny to watch.
  23. Aggies, as usual, were so convinced new Coach Jimbo was Agge through and through. They fire him before the end of the season (with no plan, of course) and comically resent the fact that Jimbo expects them to honor his contract. Now, it turns out, Jimbo doesn't even call that school down the road t.u.! He made the Tox' 'Em Toxins handsign! Thank goodness we have Elko now! He's changing the culture and is Aggie through and through...
