  1. The ones today pretty sure were in the daily Texan, but could've been cloak room. I figured the ad was being hidden, but somehow the audio was breaking through. Really odd.
  2. The weird thing is the first handful of times it happened it shut off pretty quickly on its own, but today it happened twice and played the full ad. It’s happened probably 8-10 times over the last couple weeks. I assume it’s the same ad each time. Only here and only on my phone, not my iPad.
  3. Is anyone else having a problem with a Dallas zoo light ad auto playing? There is no video or ad on the page, but it'll just start playing and my iPhone will show the little vocal box at top showing sound is playing.
  4. I started to watch Spinal Tap 2 last night and was watching Rob Reiner use a rack of films to hold himself up and thought about how old he must be, but it still kind of surprised me and made me a little sad that all the old greats are really old and I’m getting old too. I ended up turning it off to watch something else, it was late and decided I didn’t want to likely fall asleep to a movie I wanted to see. Seeing this news this morning was a shock to say the least.
  5. 17-6 now 4 minutes to go in the 2nd
  6. Center celebrates knowing they have to kneel down at least two more times. Dumbass. Coaches having the QB are kneel downs in shotgun formation. Dumbasses. Punter chokes and shanks it, wasn’t blocked at all announcers. Dumbasses. So many things went wrong, it being New Orleans, I suspect voodoo was involved.
  7. Brisket after eating gizzards:
  8. They’ve made the cheese so shitty over the years it doesn’t brown at all anymore, it’s when I finally stopped buying them. I think it’s when the switched to plastic bags from the boxes with the shitty shrink wrap on the pizza inside the box. I recently tried them for the first time, and the chicken fry batter on them was great and seemed more flavorful than the tenders or chicken there, but I did have to wait for them to make them fresh so that could’ve been it too. The thing you have to prepare for is how chewy the gizzards are. Some are chewy, some are really chewy. They started to get even chewier as they cooled and I think I finally quit eating them around 6-7 gizzards into the 9. Pulled as much breading off I could and called it a day.
  9. The funny part besides her accent, is this book has lots of illustrations to go along with the text, and she didn’t show the kids any of the pictures while reading.
  10. She definitely hasn't improved at all since the first term. 30 years in America and she still sounds that bad.
  11. You can make firecracker crackers with Cheeze-Its.
  12. Yeah, I should have mentioned the shift to the docks and new characters that are tough to tie in initially to season 1, but it gets better and makes more sense by the end. I thought season 2 was out of place at first as well.
  13. The wire season 1 is about the streets of Baltimore, if you’re not intrigued by that premise you’ll never get into it to start. It’s a follow up to The Corners miniseries that aired on network tv by David Simon a few years prior. It’s got the cops and other parts, but season 1 is the streets. Season 2 departs heavily from that and lost a lot of viewers expecting more of season 1, but it makes sense by the end of season 2 and ties it back in. Seasons 3,4,5 explore other parts of the system tying it all together with those early storylines. You have to watch it all to truly appreciate the full storyline. Also you have to acknowledge you might not relate to many of the characters motives and struggles.
  14. The Big Lebowski is great the first time and then you watch it a bunch to catch things you missed, but also get bored at times when certain parts drag on. True Romance is overrated but worth a watch for the references it put into pop culture. Django Unchained is an all timer for combing that uncomfortable subject matter with extreme violence. I’d watch it and the gift Lebowski multiple times before True Romance.
  15. The Godfather movies. Keep waiting for the right time to watch them. It's been a long wait. Band of Brothers. Never been a big fan of WW1/WW2 stuff so just never bothered to watch it when it aired.
  16. Can’t make that risky throw on third down
  17. Tulane getting to be the home team with 1 more loss than UNT because of being ranked higher in the polls might be the shittiest conference rule in all of college football.
  18. Since apparently the cops like to peruse Surly, maybe they can step in and explain why this asshole can cause a disruption and the citizen is the one the cops ask to leave. https://www.reddit.com/r/Dallas/s/ExBBih63XA
  19. "Independent journalist" But also on Info Wars
  20. Yeah, we watch all the Christmas movies streaming every year and this one just knew sucks. The premise is dumb, the way they act is dumb, and it’s overshadowed by Tim Allen being in the 3 Santa clause movies we also watch.
