  1. You need to start the running play as far away from the line of scrimmage as possible in that situation. The back needs to get up a full head of steam before he hits the line.
  2. Oklahoma wants to help YOUR draft stock, Mr. Edge Rush Fumble Causing Man.
  3. well, I assume anyone reading my posts knows me after all these years and gives it the tenuous worth it deserves. You are absolutely right that my gut reaction after reading that post is insufficient evidence of anything.
  4. you could absolutely be correct. I guess it depends on how you take the statement.” I’m trying to understand the enthusiasm for Kamala. “ I took at that as questioning why anyone would, not that people are reporting Trump will win. As you correctly point out, he could be saying ‘why is everyone saying Trump will win when they were all these enthusiastic supporting Kamala.’ If that’s what he meant then I’ll apologize to him right now. But also saying “venture in CR” has a negative undertone/implication, which is also shared by everyone Maga who does not post anymore.
  5. This is a Trumper. He’s “trying to understand it.”. He posted the betting bullshit that Maga is trying to sell the Bros to convince them he’s gonna win. If he can’t understand it, that means he’s a fan of the orange turd doing some gentle trolling. if you truly has not watched any TV or news or social media since Biden dropped out, then he just needs to shut the fuck up and watch what happens because he wasn’t interested until today. Mostly, by showing up with a stupid question that will illicit responses that aren’t positive (for no other reason, implying we haven’t discussed something we’ve discussed to death), he can run back to DT and say how mean and brainwashed the bubble is in the cloak room. But I’m not gonna neg him, it’s fine letting it play out.
  6. Not sure how many Ozempic sales peeps post on Surly.
  7. LOL. My late father-in-law was a longtime Scoutmaster, and more than 20 years ago gave me this book written by another Scoutmaster. I recently read it and started laughing at one Paragraph. Yeah, I’m going to hell. Yeah….. you might call that a punishment.
  8. As someone who a Boy Scout Leader for decades I have a lot of conservative leaning friends. And the thing I have been grappling with since 2016 is that a lot of them are intelligent and successful…and yet they believe all of the Maga shit Trump/Fox spews even though it’s clearly false and bullshit. So basically, they are gullible. I always thought that intelligence was an antidote to gullibility, but it seems they are two distinct species of mental abilities. With no rational explanation, I’ve finally come to conclude that “gullible” is simply choosing to believe that which you want to believe for your own reasons. it really defies explanation.
  9. I saw that after I posted, but I did not want to do the edit of shame. And nobody here wants to see me attempt to actually spell words correctly without spellcheck. They tried to teach spelling using phonics in the early 60s. Moving to different parts of the country every two years made me incapable of figuring out how a word should be spelled.
  10. it has been my experience that people with a broad liberal arts educational background are very much more capable of creative thinking than business majors - and especially engineers. It does not mean the latter can’t, it just seems that less of them can. Fight me!
  11. In Kursk, the Nork General has a telescope. In his pocket an ancient map of the whole scene. He likes to keep his starving soldiers mean. But It's a clean regime…
  12. Albert Speer was a fucking genius. It was truly incredible how he kept German war production at the levels they stayed despite day and night bombing of factories and rail lines. Asshole.
  13. I too always get that snakebite versus being on fire “stop drop and roll” thing mixed up.
  14. Do you hear that MAGATs? Trump is a shoe-in, no need to vote.
  15. I see that number includes a bunch of Night Witches
  16. <mental note> put that next to the refrigerator sticky that says “don’t Google hot naked septuagenarian”
  17. I can read. But you didn’t threaten him for abusing her, you threatened to kill him if he talk to her again. In writing. And I’m also not saying that 25-year-old me would not have said equal or worse. I’m not trying to criticize you so much as trying to tell people who may face a similar situation not to do that.
  18. That’s essentially a self-admit guilty plea. I admit to knowing only some narrow parts of the law I practice in, but I have a pretty good feel that beating someone to death for talking to someone you don’t want them to talk to…..would not be legal.
