  1. I suppose you could assume that a stagnating civilization would experience a decrease in technological advancement, and perhaps even regression if powerful regimes acted to prevent the general public from having access to it, in an effort to repress them. Asimov hits on this with respect to Empire in the Foundation series, and it isn't until Seldon and the First Foundation come along, that technology begins advancing rapidly again. As for fashion, it's cyclical and comes and goes. So obviously what was fashionable 10,000 years ago, would eventually come back...
  2. Yup. I'm aware I'm hardly going out on a limb, but I expect Helm to have a very big day on Saturday.
  3. More appropriate to call it a COVID Asterisk year than a near-miss, although the fact that they couldn't get in even during an incredibly messed up COVID asterisk year is hilarious in itself.
  4. I'm actually surprised at how many are picking Texas to win. I didn't tally but it might be close to 50/50.
  5. So, watch the second time for enjoyment, as well?
  6. I expect Georgia will play much better too, than they did against Miss State. Because if they don't play better than they did against Miss State, Texas will beat them by 40.
  7. Not quite as catchy as the original, but The Buggles could use another hit, so it'll do.
  8. Holy shit, "Prison or Death?" That is hardcore.
  9. McLaren running a special livery for Austin, now with more Chrome!
  10. Saw this ad on Facebook and just had to post it here for @wood to laugh at...
  11. Yeah that one made me laugh, too. Everyone in Austin is talking about how average or dogshit the SEC is, outside of a top team or two. Which is nothing new and the exact same thing we've been saying in Austin for two decades now.
  12. But do ANY of the mega-cheater fan bases ever want to admit it? Do Ohio State or Alabama fans ever admit it?
  13. Eh. Fellowship of the Ring was the best of the three but when they gave the Oscar to Return of the King it was really for the entire trilogy. Also, movie critics are pompous mirthless blowhards that don't know shit, so there is that.
  14. Yeah I just have no idea why this policy is considered acceptable.
  15. Yup, well done Mr. Martin. You were the closest. There was only one poster who predicted a Texas loss. Averaging all predictions, for 110 entries, surlyhorns predicted : Texas 37.9 ousux 16.1

    RIP Chuy's

    I always thought of Chuy's and El Arroyo and Trudy's as Aus-Mex rather than Tex-Mex. They had some good dishes, but the standard cheese enchiladas with brown gravy con carne was not among them. As long as you stuck with their specialties and didn't really think of it as true Tex-Mex, you'd do okay.
  17. Looks like pretty decent weather for the weekend. We've had far worse. I love going for my morning runs around the track when it's in the upper 50s early morning, it's a pretty amazing feeling.
  18. Print it on a plastic cup. Ags love that shit.
  19. It makes the takes coming from the Sooner message boards look downright sane and reasonable. I never thought that was possible.
  20. Sounds like an awesome topic for some forum that is not the Texas Longhorns football forum.
  21. Right smack in the middle of the demographic that attends UT football games, sounds like an appropriate selection to me.
