  1. The official motto of Republican message board posters.

  2. Now go back and re-read HIS comment and try to do a better job of understanding what he's saying. Nevermind, let me spell it out for you, son. It doesn't matter what the rest of your fucking sentence said! Because it's the first part of the sentence that is the fucking hallmark of the republican party. Let me illustrate: "Definitely not good, but Obama initially put kids in cages." "Definitely not good, but most of those people were going to die from Covid anyway." "Definitely not good, but Biden also was rude to Trump at the debates." "Definitely not good, but maybe George Floyd should have considered not being black." The point is whatever follows the first part doesn't matter, because the first part is a an existing systemic poison of WhatAboutIsm that taints the modern Republican party and it's fanboys and allows that balming cognitive dissonance to exist where you don't have to be accountable for any of your own fucking behavior. It's fucking reprehenisble.

  3. Also, you guys need to back off. Rudy was just doing as he promised, digging around to root out erection fraud.

  4. In April band members at home during the lockdowns made a zoom style video of each instrument playing a part of the Eyes. Now they won't show up to a home football game. Just another example of virtue signaling the latest faux outrage of the month.

  5. Here's how the process works: 1. The entity that's hosting the flyover makes the request to Air Force/Navy/Army/whoever Public Affairs or equivalent. That request includes all the important info like event type, date, time, location, etc. They can also request a certain type of aircraft or just say they want anything with wings. If they've worked with a certain unit in the past (for example, UT and the TXANG F-16s out of San Antonio), they can request that unit specifically. If this is the case, usually there's already a handshake deal between the entity and the unit they're requesting, but you still have to go through the process because government. 2. The DoD branch approves the flyover, and posts it on a dedicated website just like a M4M nurse encounter. 3. Individuals with access to said website (like me) can browse and look for something intriguing. I'll know what dates and how many aircraft my unit can support, so I'll look for something that matches with a hometown connection or maybe just a city that has good titty bars. 4. I submit a request to PA to support the flyover. 5. PA will contact me, get 6-9 pages worth of info, sit on it for weeks, then flip a coin to decide whether they'll approve or deny. 6. If they approve my request, they'll then get me the contact info for the flyover host. 7. I then work directly with the host for specifics of flyover direction, time, and contingency plans. 8. Flyover happens. To say it's a training mission and that it will happen either way whether the flyover happens isn't exactly true. Yes, there is some training to be had, and you can turn it into whatever type of mission you want, but the bottom line is it's a great deal for us. When you've done nothing but train in the local area and/or deploy to shitty locations, doing something like this is something special and it's not something that you'll get to do often (aircraft dependent). Some units may choose to turn the 1 minute flyover into a 6 hour mission that involves a low-level or a couple plugs from a tanker, or some (like mine) will just fly directly to the flyover then land so we can watch the game. Bottom line though, it doesn't cost the taxpayer a single cent because every unit gets a certain amount of flying hours a year and they can use them how they see fit. So for those of us that have spent literal years of our lives in Bumfuckastan, let us have our 30 seconds of glory over a football stadium.

  6. What the fuck does "necessary Instrumentation" mean? Pussy to the max. Let the other half of the band play then. Tell the others to turn in their uniforms and they are not welcome to join when all this stupid shit stops.

  17. It was on page 267 that everything collapsed into shit, and then 268 began the process of smearing it across the entire Surly poster base's face. Dabo Swinney? Rehiring Chuckles? We're devolving into bargaining over whether or not we could get Harsin and if he'd be able to recruit here? Urban Meyer hasn't even mooned us and flipped us off yet. Tom Herman hasn't even been shown the door and we've fallen all the way from comparing Kim Kardashian clones to wondering openly about the ability to bring in Dabo Swinney.

  22. Sometimes when you’re the adult/parent and your child threatens to run away from home because they aren’t getting their way you just have to stand your ground and not give into such juvenile behavior. It would seem the band is starting to move into the Brocks territory.

  23. I don't disagree with most of your post. I merely stare in fucking wonderment at the concept of handing the controls of this site over to Rex Kramer.

  25. This program is such a joke. We're basically out of the big 12 race 3 games into conference play with a senior QB that was on many Heisman lists. We have a top 5 OL at LT and a veteran roster at almost every position. Yet we look barely competent against some of the worst big 12 teams this year I'm not going to bother watching us play against a Baylor team that hasn't practiced and barely has enough eligible players to field a team. This game may be easier than fucking Kansas and I fully expect us struggle and barely pull out a win. I'm done wasting my time on Saturdays watching this pile of shit. I haven't missed a single Texas game since 2004 but I have no desire to turn on the tv this Saturday. Fuck this program and this administration. We were at the top of the mountain and within 10 years we are a gawd damn joke in college football. I met a lifelong Nebraska fan yesterday and he was laughing about Texas football and what it has turned into. A decade of failure and embarrassment will do that to you.

  26. I sure hope so. I intend to do as Gen Xers do, sit back and have a drink and watch the carnage (because, again, we're the fucking irrelevant generation).

  28. Hey wanted to circle back here. Sorry, I took a break for a few days from my hate mail. I come to the site a lot less when our football team sucks donkey dick. Mea culpa. It appears you are right. The links included in the original tweet didn’t include the updated assessment of the tax plan. Didn’t think to look for update. I’ll be more careful.
