  1. We'd all respect people a lot more if they just owned the stupid shit they've done and say something like "Sometimes you get excited about things, like.... wings.... and you mix up your twittering and your texting." We'd all laugh and say I've been there, and move on.
  2. Somewhere an Aggie is laughing that we put Texas upside down in one of our end zones.
  3. This has happened a few times, usually flying in or out of smaller markets. I get lucky enough to be upgraded, board and find someone in my seat. I do the usual, hey I think you're in my seat. The person either a) claims there aren't assigned seats and "you can just sit anywhere" or b) fumbles for their ticket and does the whole "Oh, is this not 18F?" Yeah, dumb shit. You just "accidentally" took a seat in first. Because you were confused. Right. Go back to the back, peasant.
  4. If someone is willing to declare in public that they're about to doodoo their pants, I'm getting out of the way. I, for one, value honesty. And abhor bad smells in airplanes.
  5. My favorite is when your plane lands 15 minutes early into DFW and some jackwad tries to push his way ahead through the aisle while announcing he has a tight connection. Bitch, we're early, so you have at least 30 minutes before your next flight even starts to board, you're going to be fine.
  6. I'm gonna have to rule in favor of Karen on this one. Unless the flight was half full and she stupidly selected a middle seat over available aisle and window seats. Generally, if two Chatty Cathys want to gab it up the whole flight, they should sit next to each other. I was in this situation once. On AA so assigned seating. Got stuck in a middle when I hopped on an earlier flight. Married couple on the aisle and window. Even once I put on my headphones to drown out their inane chatter they kept passing magazines and snacks and shit back and forth to each other the whole flight. When I asked if they want to just sit next to each other, they declined and explained that they purposely booked two separate reservations with a seat in between them. So they'd have an open seat. Yeah, that's not how it works. In summer. With full flights everywhere.
  7. I went once, and it was awesome. Then like two weeks later all of them in DFW closed down.
  8. Poboys and cheesesteaks. You try to get one outside of their respective homeland, and the biggest problem is usually that the bread is wrong.
  9. Just remember, when it says "To protect and serve" on the squad cars, they mean themselves.
  10. It's all about the clicks yall. He's shooting for that Skip Bayless money. I don't know why there's a market for this idiocy, but there is. So go get it, I guess.
  11. By the end of the season, the 2021 Pirates blooper reel is gonna last 25 minutes.
  12. Whenever I have to drive 35W by Heritage Trace it also makes me want to pull out a gun.... and blow my own brains out.
  13. Hell yeah. If I could be in Austin I could go for a double cheeseburger from C&A right now. Good base layer for multiple pitchers of beer.
  14. This is always a fun event, and I highly recommend it for anyone who has never gone.
  15. When Mississippi State loses tomorrow they're going to pucker up tighter than a snare drum because they have a century long history of losing and it's in their blood. It's in their nature to fail. Remind them of that tomorrow. Finish them Saturday. Damn the torpedoes.
  16. I'm back to say LET'S FUCKING GOOOOOOO
  17. That was greenspoint being greenspoint
  18. I'm fine if it's never on television at all.
  19. I get the complaints about the shift, but on the other hand, if you're facing a dead pull hitter, it's kind of insane to think you'd just let him keep driving liners between the traditional 1B and 2B spots for his entire career and not do something to adjust. Eventually hitters will adjust, there will be more value for spray hitters. Everything balances out eventually, it just doesn't happen overnight. The thing I see this year that I still can't wrap my head around is guys who are batting sub .200 slotted in the leadoff spot. I am sure there's some analytical theory for this, but it's hard for me to make any sense of it.
  20. The quality of college baseball has improved dramatically over the past 15-20 years or so. The transition period from gorilla ball to dead bats was painful, but college baseball is in a great spot now.
  21. You need to see a therapist.
  22. That was too good of a game to end on such a shitty play.
  23. Is there a thread where actual baseball fans can discuss the game without all the constant whining about the SEC? You guys are out of control and sound like Aggies whining that Texas gets all the calls, attention, etc.
