  1. Ms CL calls me yesterday. "You locked my keys in my car after you moved it!" "If I did, I left the driver side window down, so you are OK." "Tell me how that fixes it!" "Reach inside the window and open the door." <silence> <silence> <more silence> "Nevermind."

  3. I'm getting to the point where I am going to stop reading this thread. The bitching and whining about the deteriorating quality of season 8 is starting to grind my gears. I still very much enjoy this show. Coming here is starting to compromise my enjoyment. Maybe I'll check back in after it's over.

  15. As we continue to punch each other in the dick about collusion (report exonerates Trump here basically on the grounds of stupidity) and obstruction (report does not exonerate and for those with a brain paints a pretty clear road for Congress to make a decision and impeach), let’s not lose sight of the fact the President committed serious campaign finance violations, which alone should result in his impeachment. We are not talking about run of the mill violations but rather a conspiracy to pay off porn stars and playmates to shut them up in the days leading up to the election about affairs with Donald Trump. And if you don’t believe that had an effect on an election where Trump won an electoral victory by about 80,000 votes in the right places, well then you probably don’t believe there was any obstruction and you fall squarely in the category of someone that would vote for Trump even after he shoots someone on 5th Avenue. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-fix/wp/2016/12/01/donald-trump-will-be-president-thanks-to-80000-people-in-three-states/?utm_term=.eadcfce76d8a

  17. Justin Weiss Smith should write greetings cards. "Birthdays are a false concept and you're unimportant. Nobody cares and all the women on this rotten continent are as idiotic as they are materialistic. They're disease packets that don't understand value and ironically the only time I can escape the disgusting darkness of this nightmare called life is when I'm asleep. I took a shit in a Starbucks this morning and didn't flush because fuck hipster douche bags and corporate zombies like you. Happy Birthday? No! Your death is the only thing I'll celebrate when I vomit on your grave. I bought a sword on E-bay and it's a piece of shit because nobody respects or strives for true art or meaning anymore. Your carcass will eventually be filled with death worms and I'm the only one who saw you this way during your entire, pathetic life. Happy Birthday."

  18. aggy's 1939 opponents went 39-47-8. USC's 1939 opponents went 40-33-10. aggy went from getting no 1st place votes in week 8 to getting 36 1st place votes in week 9 despite previous #1 Tennessee having outscored their opponents by 188-0 at that point. Must've been an online poll.

  19. Honest question, since I don't care if people like things I don't and if you're a fan of the new trilogy that's fine, but were those really your only quibbles with the movie? All of the humor fell flat for me. The "Your Mama" joke being the worst offender. And of course, it neutered any menace Hux had right out of the gate. He was clearly a brown-nosing, over-the-top weasel in the first film, but he's still supposed to be somewhat intimidating. After that odd as fuck scene he's just a complete joke. You can't take him even slightly seriously anytime he's on screen after that. You didn't have any issue with the slowest and most retarded chase scene in movie history? I can suspend my disbelief with the best of them, but that had me shaking my head in confusion and frustration. All the ships (except Tie fighters) go the exact same speed? The Resistance ships can't use their hyperdrives, but surely the First Order can, right? So nobody is going to suggest jumping ahead of them and setting up a kill box? And you have a ginormous fleet chasing these folks with probably hundreds of TIE fighters in them. But instead of just swarming them you send Kylo out with a small escort? And then you call him on the radio and tell him to get back since you "can't cover him" from that distance. As if the bad guys in Star Wars have ever given a single solitary fuck about the lives of the common grunt in their armies. That's literally the job of TIE fighters and Stormtroopers. To get wasted at every opportunity. Then we're trapped in a literal idiot plot. The purple haired "Boys are stupid!" lady doesn't bother telling her plan to anyone, which incites a mutiny, and there was absolutely no reason to withhold the plan. And in the end, the plan gets damn near everyone killed anyway. Whoops! And our ending was a small handful of Resistance members (enough to all fit on the Falcon) surviving, with no one coming to help them, having just watched all their friends get annihilated, and they're all fucking smiles. The tone of this movie was just all over the fucking place. I'm leaving out a horde of minor stuff too, like Phasma being worthless again, "Chrome Dome!", BB-8 driving a goddamn AT-ST, them needing to find one specific dude to do the hack but getting arrested and then just happening to get locked up with another guy who can do the hack, bad fight choreography, Snoke being a joke, drinking green alien titty milk, etc.

  20. Watched part of the 2009 Fiesta Bowl (Texas v. tOSU) this morning on LHN. For those with memory problems, Texas was 11-1, with a 45-35 win over OU and a last-second loss at Tech, and was left out of the BCS Championship game because of the horrible tie-breaker rule in place. Texas missed out on a possible championship by 0.013 points in the BCS poll, despite a 10-point win over OU on a neutral field, and despite beating both of the Big 12 CCG teams. If any team ever had a reason to feel screwed and disappointed, it was that 2008 Texas team. But the game was great and Texas won on a late TD pass McCoy to Cosby. The announcers never said one word about "hangover", "didn't want to be there", "not ready to play", or any of the million other excuses made for Georgia. UGA and the SEC apologists can go screw themselves.

  21. Once upon a time the nazi party was not the dominant party of Germany. During that period of time, I am absolutely sure that there were a large number of people, both of the party and not, that did not think ill of it and thought it might actually do the country some good. We see that once again today, except this time not just in person but in our face both on the tv, the radio, and for many especially on the net. We have posters on here who excuse trump’s antics as “jokes,” like the recent “joke” he told when someone at one of his hate rallies suggested shooting immigrants and he “jokingly” went along with that suggestion. Yeah, just a small and simple “joke” that was. The Nazis rose to prominence in Germany by preying on the ignorance of the masses and wound up later on and a few years later: Killing millions. Trump and his ilk haven’t gotten to that point yet. Are you willing to risk it and see if they might? Anyone who argues trump doesn’t want to be a dictator is a ridiculous fool. The good news is our institutions are much stronger than even those that existed in pre war Germany. Nevertheless, trump and the Republican criminal party and their supporters take dead aim at those instituations every single day trying to weakin them. It appears to be a goal of theirs. They are therefore an extistential threat.

  22. So I moved over to Baton Rouge from the Austin area over 4 years ago for a job. The job didn't turn out and I don't like the city at all. I've stayed basically because I'm an alcoholic. I'm single with no kids to support, so I can always scrape by. I just needed my booze and somewhere to sit. I wanted to get the fuck out of here, but there was enough work to buy booze and provide a place for me to sit with my booze. All problems solved. Some health issues came up and a decision had to be made because it was literally life or death. I wasn't ready to die. I didn't know what to expect. I was scared shitless. Didn't really have a support system and I hadn't been without drinking since I was a kid. I shared my story about the first few months a while back, so I won't. But it was awful at first. For months. Slowly things started getting better and I got stronger, physically and emotionally. It was such a weird place to be. I didn't know how I was going to react to anything. Big or small. And I still don't, but my confidence and self-worth are higher than they have ever been. I don't mean I think I'm the shit, I mean I'm just at peace with myself for the first time, maybe ever. Every morning is great and it lasts until the next one. Tiny things make me smile out of nowhere. Sad things make some salty discharge build up in my eyes. I'm finally filling up my emotional being with emotions instead of using the bottle to steer around that part of me and leaving me empty and numb. It's liberating and exciting and scary and fucking great. I decided I'm ready to get out of here and back to Austin. I got a call for an interview earlier this week, so I drove over on Sunday, interviewed Monday, thought it went really well, looked at some apartments and filled out the paperwork for one that I really wanted. Headed back to Baton Rouge, got approved for the condo I really wanted and now it's Friday and I have all my stuff packed up, ready to put in a trailer and start fresh again. My lease just happened to start today, May 10th. My one year of sobriety is today, May 10th.

  27. Shrimp Scampi This one is so fast and easy, yet so so good. Wife and kid rave every time. I say this about a lot of pastas, but this one might truly have the highest ROI ratio from a skill/time needed (almost zero) to great end result standpoint. This was made with some very run-of-the-mill ingredients from a generic local grocery store (small Tom Thumb). Nothing fancy or super fresh and it still turned out amazing. Start with about a pound of shrimp Other ingredients: Minced garlic, chopped onion, chopped basil, lime (and the zest of the lime). Not pictured, butter, olive oil, cheap white wine, salt, fresh pasta, red pepper flakes. Sweat onion and garlic in some olive oil. Add shrimp, basil and salt. Deglaze with about a cup of cheap white wine. Then whisk in a few pats of butter. Once that cooks down a little and makes a nice consistent cream sauce (pictured below), squeeze a whole lemon in and add your fresh pasta. Plate with a sprinkle of fresh basil, fresh lemon zest and red pepper flakes and a drizzle of EVOO to top it off.

  31. The CNN article takes a position, then crafts the data to support the position. Sound familiar? Of the 288, the vast majority of these are one on one, essentially murder over territory, affiliation, affection, drugs, what have you. These are young adults acting violently. This study also left out large countries such as Russia, China, Brazil, and smaller South American and African countries that have much higher rates of violence. I personally hate statistics since they are crafted by human beings that are predisposed to a position and get a reward for having the greatest number of people agreeing with that position. The bottom line is that there are too many mass shootings at our schools. A job guarantee is wrong. Technical schools and learning a trade outside of college is a step in the right direction. Our government has a hard time with the most basic of coverages: I don't see match making as a step in the right direction. I would be all for a restriction on video games, pornography, violence on TV for our young people. The brain is developing until the early 20s. Smoking, drinking, sex addictions typically start during the brain development stage. Personally, I am for: Hardened schools. Electronic locks, armed teachers, entry sentries, etc... A predator is not going to attack a school in the U.S. if they think they will be killed in the process. Technical schools to gain the attention of young people that does not involve the challenging/unlikely prospect of college. It is an argument for another day, but college is a waste of time/money and unaffordable for a large percentage of our population. Restrict first person shooter/violent games to 18+. Send all pornography to a restricted domains that require age verification to view. Make the minimum age for smoking to be 21. Legalize marijuana nationwide for the 21+ group.

  35. Fox News had the biggest influence and was widely disseminating the same opinions and information as the Russians. I don't know that the Russians made much of a difference given the mountain of disinformation Fox had already created. I think Fox is also a bigger problem than Russia if we want to continue our experiment as a Republic. Just because selling hate, fear, and lies to old people can be profitable, it doesn't mean that it should be done.
