Appreciate it, will see if I can send the video. Didn’t post it here because you don’t need to hear us yammering about the asshole, or whether I should chase him. It is amazing how fast he is in and out of screen. He was flying.

I mean, we were just mellowing out to some Rachel Price, an exit away from home. I actually saw him in my rear view, thought “he’s going to fast and is gonna cut it too close,” and he hit me about .2 seconds later. Hope his car is his baby and he fucked it up and his girl thinks he’s a dick and he’s not getting laid because of it.

He might have also clipped the suv on our right. No real hard hits, just clipped us.

Black Camaro doing about 90+, sideswiped me. Got him on camera, but between reflective lighting and how fast he was going, don’t think I’ll get a readable plate. He’s on screen for no more than 3-4 seconds. Fucking asshole. Not major damage, but a pretty solid sideswipe. For no fucking reason.

Goddamn, the bar mitzvah comment is fucking BULLSEYE. And not a cool bar mitzvah, but one for a super-spoiled rich 13 year old boy who thinks that all the celebration that day really DOES mean he's the biggest baddest dude alive. But his older cousin Rachel, from New York? Out on the dance floor having a good time? How YOU doin'? Sorry, went to a few bar mitzvahs back in the day, and I knew what was up.

Rode in a Chinese EV as my Uber from the Munich airport (Chinese EVs are all over the EU). It was ridiculously nice.

I like fried gibbets, and appreciate a mature woman with nice pillories.

I was awarded the title Sultan of Shrimp when I waited tables at Red Lobster, so I can relate. By "awarded," I mean that one of my co-waiters called me that one night after closing when we hit the margarita machine a bit too hard. So, pretty much same-same.

Bottom line, if you're looking for something NOT to hate about Buzbee . . . keep lookin'.

Yeah....appreciate the insight on this some of y'all have shared. As mentioned a while back, we've worked with the refugee kiddo over who we have some partial guardianship (long story, only a partial legal relationship, mostly to help him out where his natural mother can't be helpful). He's something of a talented soccer player -- he ain't Messi, but he's good enough to get some college looks. It looks like he's down to Huston Tillotson, which has offered him a spot on the team, and a full ride, and UIW, which has offered him a "preferred walk-on" roll and....not a full ride. He's almost certainly not going to play pro soccer anywhere, but he likely does want to focus on training/kinesiology as a career. SO, we very much want him to get a degree. ANY degree, would be the first ever for his family. Challenge: he REALLY wants UIW, but there's a price tag. And while we are willing to help...we didn't plan to put a third kid through college. We will be talking to a friend of ours in admin at UIW to see if there's any path to defraying costs more, but....any thoughts on those paths, and soccer options? Academically and life-choice wise, we think UIW might be better too (it would be good for him to go to a new city, have a small bit of distance from his mom and brother, but on the other hand, not too far and not too much separation). But....a full ride to HT is nothing to sneeze at. And I have great respect for HT as an institution, they are sound and well-funded (just got a huge new gift). So, things to think about.

Everything is Shit: Tracking the Great Enshittening
Brisketexan replied to 956 Worldwide's topic in Daily Texan
See, great literature makes you THINK. -
I think this has pretty much got it summed up.

Yeah....this. It's fucking baffling, yet, now that I've fully realized and accepted that humanity is irredeemably awful....it's not baffling at all. Congress is a fucking joke, and at this point, if we dissolved it, nobody could tell the difference other than the fact that we wouldn't be subjected to stupid social media posts by Ted Cruz and John Cornyn and nobody would know who Mike Johnson is except for his multiple Grindr hookups.

Car Accident Insurance Action
Brisketexan replied to BlueGreySky's topic in Can You Help Me With This?
For ease, go through the other carrier until they become troublesome, then turn it over to USAA if you have to. Sorry to hear it. My wife got smacked pretty good a couple of years ago, and there were some legit medical damages (nothing life-changing, but some time to recover, and a period of pain). Get a fair recovery for that, and don't close out the injury part of the claim till you know she's ok. And, hope that she's okay sooner rather than later.
