  1. I'm "that guy" and could see this happening to me. I have had 3-4 fights literally land in my lap or at my feet. I didn't move but some literally made it down a block or two and ended up right at my feet.
  2. Agreed. She's a bright spot in Season 4 and arguably the most likable character: she seems to be the only one that is smart and has some basic emotional intelligence as well as not being completely self-absorbed.
  3. The Ann Richards thing is one of the most frequently repeated misinformation in Texas college sports. Yes, it was political, but it was not Ann Richards. As noted, on the Baylor side it was Lt. Gov. Bob Bullock and Sen. David Sibley (R-Waco), who was a very powerful senator at the time. On the Tech side, it was House Speaker Pete Laney (D-some little town near Lubbock) and Sen. Rob Junell (D-Lubbock), like Sibley a very powerful senator.
  4. The entire "Washington Football Team" is just SAF. I mean do people need to be reminded what sport? Why not just "Washington." Seems pretty obvious it is a team and it plays football ... this isn't the damn MLS.
  5. This exact same thing happened in West around 2005-06 IIRC. It was crazy how much damage the blast did. Buildings miles away had some damage, and the immediate area around the fertilizer plant looked like something out of World War II bombing.
  6. I can tolerate a bunch of unrealism if there is some internal consistency. What gets annoying about Ozark the Byrde's ability to get out of all kinds of jams by having characters act inconsistently. It really started S1E1 when Del decided to spare Marty at the auto salvage place over an Ozarks brochure and then spares he and Wendy subsequently after Marty lied to him about Wendy knowing about the business. Marty continually talks his way out of ridiculous situations by pure power of persuasion although he rarely is decisive and constantly waffles. Darlene was an even crazier example of this and Ruth to a lesser degree. If the cartel, the mob, and others acted consistently, no way they survived as long as they have. Speaking of Shaw - have a hard time believing that character they way she is presented decides "buying heroin from a drug cartel seems like a great idea."
  7. Can't we all agree that it's bizarro world when 60s "counterculture" artists in 2022 are like "agree with the gubment or else!"
  8. https://www.latimes.com/entertainment-arts/music/story/2022-01-28/joni-mitchell-music-removed-spotify-neil-young-joe-rogan?fbclid=IwAR2XYkOtwrkuT3YRm-5fSjzJ84VP8TKNd-K9FTDJgil9LEz-rU90cUElO4Q Fucking Gen X always fucked. We have irrelevant, washed up Boomers trying to get attention and Gen Z grievance studies majors that believe men can have babies censoring what is "science." I would put on my Docs and go slap olds and instahoes but I am too apathetic.
