  1. Fighting over Sobel. That’s smart
  2. Saw Wyatt Earp in the theater. The best part was when Earps father played by Gene Hackman came to bail Wyatt out of jail. It was a dramatic part where Hackman was shaming Wyatt when all of a sudden a dude in the back of the theater ripped the loudest fart.
  3. My understanding is that he thought his fiancee died years ago, but came back and had no memory. In fact, she was a key member of an international exotic car hijack ring. So Beard assembled his crew, or family, to take out this hijack ring. It ended with a scuffle at Beard’s house and police were called. But Beard lost part of his crew, including Gisselle and Han. Beard’s fiancee has now regained her memory and now they live happily ever after.
  4. You mean the talented actor James McAvoy who became a rising star in Narnia, then Last King of Scotland, then Atonement continued to be in movies to this day like Split. Next, you’ll tell me he was the bald guy in the X-Man prequels.
  5. You mean Hardbodies? Do yourself a favor and scroll through the IMDB photos - https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0087385/
  6. Had Dana Holgerson been in the mix with Muschamp, that would have been a formidable combination. More like the rehabbed Garrett Gilbert you saw at SMU and then as a backup NFL QB. Holgerson would also see weapons like DJ Monroe, Marquise Goodwin, and Fozzy Whitaker and know what to do with them. On the flipside, defense would have been better with even a slightly better offense and special teams. And the mindset would be less pussified.
  7. The modern shooter is less mentally disturbed schizo and more politically motivated terrorist, so they are better abled to plan and execute. So, you have high school kid be able to carry out attacks after being on the inside for years. It can circumvent some safety plans.
  8. One eye and two homestead exemptions. He got it backwards.
  9. With YouTube Gen Zs are discovering the science of jumping. So plenty of kids can dribble like the Professor, shoot like Curry, and dunk like Westbrook, but not know how to play the game. Should be “White Men Can’t Play Fundamentally Sound”
  10. Not really. Electoral college and gerrymandering and such
  11. Sent him to Gitmo and/or blow him up with a drone
  12. Killing Fields Crying Game Marley & Me Star is Born Shawshank Redemption
  13. Fast Times at Ridgemont High Bill & Ted Old School Wedding Singer Schindler’s List Pulp Fiction The Matrix
  14. Had to leave after the Battle of Atlanta?
  15. Probably the worst team in the league just beginning a rebuild. Just desserts.
  16. Terrorism. Its terrorism. Lump all these fuckers with 9/11 Jihadists.
  17. The NFL is a monopoly that finances its venues with public funds. Houston should have had the rights to the brand which was vacated.
  18. I hate this place. This zoo. This prison. This reality, whatever you want to call it, I can't stand it any longer. It's the smell, if there is such a thing. I feel saturated by it. I can taste your stink and every time I do, I fear that I've somehow been infected by it.
  19. This is why I came to Surly - the cutting edge humor.
  20. In the 1500’s jesters could get away with a lot of insults that would get other members of court in trouble. But they were court jesters and were otherwise social pariahs. They were seen as pets. Flashforward to now with all these comedians wanting to insult others AND want the exclusive invites, premium acting jobs, and the luxuries of fame. You shouldnt be able to have both: infamy and respect. Do you want to critique society or be part of it? How can you critique the power elite if you are part of it? Joe Rogan and other comedians lament a time when they could get away with a lot. But society is in a new place and is fractured. And, how long will “too soon” jokes be funny? Since they’re no longer cutting edge, they lose value. Though they can still be funny given context. The off-putting insults of others misery are now part of a very real path to dystopia where the value of human life is diminished. Its not as funny all the time. Simply put: Rogan is now more Alex Jones than Bill Hicks. He’s sold out and has aligned with a power elite. Are you Lenny Bruce, willing to go to prison for free speech? Or, are you Greg Gutfeld, telling unfunny jokes and acting victimize when other people exercise their free speech to complain about you?
