  1. You know you’re reaching a new low when an adult with the handle “safe sex” correctly calls you out.
  2. 85 during the day? Thats basically what our house is with no AC
  3. When asked about fixing his mechanics, Ewers replied, “Would that it were so simple.”
  4. I’m not asking for a Ted Cruz / Buffalo Bill tuck dance gif
  5. APD has always had the boys in the crime lab working in shifts to solve theft cases and review camera footage, especially around sketchy liquor stores. My security service is advise clients to watch The Wire to demonstrate how cities can win the war on crime, poverty, and homelessness through being tough on crime and shuffling poor people through the criminal justice system.
  6. Is this y’all’s solution to homelessness?
  7. Homelessness is a regional and national issue. Granted some Austin policies have compounded the problems. But having cities each come up with their own solutions for mental illness, broken foster systems, immigration, drug addiction, poverty is inefficient and bordering on absurd. Moreover, some jurisdictions’ solve their own homelessness problem by putting them on a bus to another jurisdiction (the old Rambo I policy). Further, why would state and federal politicians want to attempt to solve homelessness when it’s incredibly complicated and gives them fodder to win re-election by being tough on crime and ridicule local city policies on an issue that’s nationwide and regional dealing with populations (long-term homeless) that typically move around? I don’t know how many mentally ill and termed foster kids have been released on the streets of Austin, but at times, it’s been significant.
  8. This all started with talent comps from this upcoming offense to 2008/09, not Colt’s freshman year. I’m excited to see improvement in our passing game, but its way too soon to crown our receivers (an average unit in 2022 and sometimes a weakness) or Ewers. Neither would I write them off.
  9. I didnt make up the catchable balls stats, but cant find link because I heard it on the radio. That stat was in reference to outside catch radius (so overthrows and underthrows). We were not Top 100 in overall catchable balls, including Card. Or maybe we were in the 90’s. The offense relied on Bijan and the threat of Bijan and some nifty scheming. Bijan being our best back since Ricky in my opinion, even above Benson (who worked among a more talented offense). So it was a decent offense. But the passing game underperformed and could not be relied upon. In context of my opinion that Ewers does not deserve to be compared to Colt since he’s not in the same ballpark as one of the greatest QBs in CFB history, I think its premature to compare the two and believe its not unthinkable that Ewers could be a bust and get benched. Is it likely? I hope not. But he hasnt done more than show flashes.
  10. Sark did well to not bench Ewers last year. The passing game was atrocious last year. Ewers probably threw the most uncatchable balls in the country. We see another Oklahoma St Nuke Laloosh performance, I can envision either capable backup relieving him. With that being said, its only his 2nd year and the ceiling is high. Maybe he’ll be comparable to Colt McCoy someday.
  11. 8 Oscar Noms and 2 Victories. As much as I appreciate Dunkirk its not in the same class as TDK. 9.0 on IMDB. And is there really any debate that TDK is the best movie of the superhero genre?
  12. You mean the mental health jokes that obviously hurt Judy’s feelings when she overheard her parents talking about it? Or when Jesse attempted his best to cheer up his sister? Not sure you interpreted those correctly.
  13. Nolan > Timothy Van Patten Laser IMAX > iPad
  14. We have eyeballs. The 2008 and 2009 Texas teams were Top 3 back to back years. When Sark’s 2023 club fields a Top 10 performance, get back to us.
  15. The Wire is an anti-police procedural, and while it sympathizes with police officers, it deglamorizes the job. You see detectives reluctantly investigate homicides, game the crime stats, run in circles, get outsmarted, and pressured and stymied by superiors. They are a kog, custodians of crime. It’s what Unforgiven was to westerns.
  16. Colt and Shipley arent walking through that door. They were generational talents. Colt was the best player in college football in 08. We’re not sure if Ewers is the best QB on this team. And PK is nowhere close to Coach Blood.
  17. The original Raiders of the Lost Ark had one of the most thrilling stunt sequences in history. It’s what made the movie great. From what I can tell, this one is loaded with CGI (from one preview looked Sharknado-level ridiculous). And they have an elderly Harrison Ford in it, a great movie star who’s mostly been phoning it in the past 30 years. And in another movie with time travel? Hard pass.
  18. At least ark melting faces is original. If time travel is part of the story, then I’m relieved to pass on this one.

  20. I'm young. I know about fun. He's an old man. He don' know nuthin' about fun.
  21. Doth protest too much… Jon Kitna participates in “Porn and Pancakes” to take on the rising porn addiction problem back in 2010 https://deadspin.com/porn-pancakes-jon-kitna-and-jesus-go-ahead-rank-the-5482143

  23. Plenty of fun movies have 90 minute run times
