  1. What a fucking day! We wake up to news that Pat Robertson is dead. And then the Supreme Court told us that the VRA is actually still a thing. Then we get to see a Russian get eaten by a fucking shark (which was really fucking metal, BTW). And now an indictment? Christ almighty, at this rate I half expect to get a blowjob tonight.

  2. The TE that visited last weekend, Mormon Johnny, he really wants to come to Texas. The mom really wants BYU or somewhere else that isn't apparently a den of hedonism like Austin. Moms usually win these. Simmons is giving LSU the last visit in November and the full opportunity to close him. If LSU can post an NIL number that is within spitting distance of Texas, they're landing him. If someone comes in over the top on this one and offers a package that blows everyone else out of the water, then nevermind for LSU or Texas unless it's one of them doing it. Miami's pitching wild ass shit to the TB in Florida. It's not only about NIL for him, but it matters a lot. Livingstone is the jaggeriest jagger who has ever jagged. Texas thinks it is going to get who it wants on the OL. They are getting a lot of interest and they have a ton of confidence in the interest. The DL from Oak Forest goes to Georgia. If Texas wins 10+ on the field this year, they're signing another top 3-5 class. They are an "it" school if they win because of the combination of NIL, brand, and Sarkisian's staff appeal. Choice is a fucking beast in recruiting. Jackson is getting strong reviews. Let's fucking go, Seven Loss Steve! Get this shit done.

  4. This is part of the reason they blew the dam. They wanted AFU servicemen to respond and if they died, even better. You’ll not that Russian forces are not evacuating the side they occupy.

  6. Yeah, there were some things in CHIEF's post that made me raise my eyebrows in a not-so-great way. The women being "way out of touch with reality" concept is funny to me, because historically to the point that it's been a punchline of hundreds of jokes, just on this website, every week, it's old people. Old people are out of touch with reality. And not only that, most of them are aggressively wired to attempt to make their own reality all they see. And that's not a dig, that's literally just a fact of life. The older you get, the more entrenched you become in your ideas as well as your life...your routine, who you see, what you do, how you feel, etc. You're not out learning new things, changing with the times, etc. That's literally the normal life cycle. The problem these days, is things are changing so fast that not only old people can't handle it, but older middle age people can't handle it. It took human beings thousands of years to go from hunting, to farming, to the Renaissance. Now in the past 100 years women can vote, black people have equal rights, religion is in decline, some kids pick their own gender, the Internet exists, etc. It's overwhelming. And unfortunately this helps unlock the rage and hatred in human being hearts, and shit spirals from there. I have my own pet theory as to one of the reasons why education is suffering in this country...outside of all the obvious reasons. One is because there's no longer a massive, massive fucking talent pool of intelligent women, wildly intelligent women, who were basically given the choice of being a teacher, stewardess, secretary, or nurse as their careers. Now they have equality and are getting high paying jobs, C-suit level gigs, attorneys, lawyers, and lots of men fucking hate that. Because it makes their own success more difficult, and removes a hierarchy that they relied upon for their own self esteem. And you have assholes like Passport Bro who just call American women entitled, for having the audacity to seek a partner who is educated, who they're attracted to, who isn't a chauvinist pig who's masculinity isn't imperiled because they have to cook some meals and do household chores and shit that forever was labeled as "women's work." Basically, they're pissed that women want the same shit they've been demanding of women for the history of fucking time. Well, maybe not the intelligent part. There's a huge segment of dumb men that want women dumber than them so they aren't challenged. Again, massive insecurity issues. But I digress. Anyway, older folks looking to cling to their worldview will will say "Oh, well, the problem is there aren't a lot of women who want to embrace traditional values and lifestyles, etc." Which is bullshit. What I read that as is "Society has changed, and I'm not capable of changing with it, so I'm going to bail and try to find women from 3rd world shitholes who won't challenge me and will just be grateful to be here" because they're lazy, selfish pussies. And of course now Passport Bro above now expects her to have a fucking job and go dutch on everything. It's sad. I remember how fucking miserable I was in stretches of my 20s and early 30's because I was alone, or because the relationships I were in never felt like the right fit. It fucking sucked. But I had two choices: Either cave on my expectations, or stick it out. I stuck it out, and I finally met someone who checked all the boxes. And you know what, enough dumb motherfucking assholes out there had burned her enough that apparently she was willing to settle for my fucking stupid ass. And unless she's lying to me, we're pretty happy. And you know what, my life is better having a partner. Like a fucking lot. But it took time, work, and patience. And it still takes time, work, and patience. But what assholes like those shits want isn't a fucking partner, they want, as another poster posted, an indentured servant they can fuck. Don't tell me it's about values, or Christ, or whatever, because there's plenty religious nutjobs out there looking to be a housewife. But you know what, they probably are going to insist their partner, I don't know, also has a fucking good job, can provide for the family, isn't a shitbag, etc. To me it all comes down to a bunch of lazy fucking men, who won't look in a mirror, and blame everything on everyone else because they won't adjust. /rant. If you made it this far, sadly, you get nothing. But thanks for reading. And also, don't take my rant to mean that women aren't all kinds of fucked up, and their standards aren't often complete shit, and their taste in men is often poor AF. After all, jokes about women chasing bad boys has also been a punchline for hundreds of years. But that's a completely different post. Plenty of shit to blame with women, social media culture, etc. But, news at 6, humans in general are stupid and fucked up, and there's more than enough blame to go around.

  7. I got off my last call, walked through security and into the United club and saw this news. I was really just coming in here for a private place to take a dump before my flight, but I had to make a detour to pick up a beer to toast the greatness of today. And I can guarantee blowjobs are in my future tonight. Sorry for you straight guys!

  8. One of the IT guys I mentioned in the remote work thread who come into the office to escape their families did something like this. He's a serious Japanime/hentai dork, met his wife online, convinced her to move to the US from Japan and got married. He has pics of her all over his desk and she's easily one of the Top 5 ugliest Japanese women I've ever seen.

  11. Watched a bit of it on YouTube. The ones I saw were decent to handsome guys (granted I only watched maybe 3-4 videos). It sounds like they weren't going so much because they couldn't get laid, but more to the point, had never been in a relationship with a women in which the woman's infidelity did not end the relationship. These dudes are looking for wives, someone to settle down with. I think fidelity is more important to them than maintaining the household. Another thing some of the guys brought up, was never leave your foreign girlfriend's country, or her family. If you bring them back to the US, the relationship will probably not work out. Makes me think of Eddie Murphy on his "Raw" comedy show all the way back in the 80's where his African girlfriend wanted her half. He told her she was naked riding a zebra when he found her. If you look at the divorce thread in IWPIHB, or go back and read the "Population Decline" thread in this forum, you start to see some societal changes that were well intentioned, but have spawned some negative consequences. College educated women refusing to marry men without, at least, the same or higher level of education, and a higher income level, or divorcing their husband that paid for that education after they received it is commonplace. It happened to my best friend. Average women getting a booty call from a horny guy that is out of their league only to think that is the kind of guy that is her new norm and not the exception. American women are way out of touch with what their true looks are able to draw for a stable, longterm relationship. I bet there are several thousand women on social media, all over two bills, that say they are a "10". Completely out of touch with reality. However, the biggest culprit, I truly believe, is social media. It was easy for us old dudes to "shoot your shot" back in the day, when a rejection was simply kept between the approacher, and the "approachee." Now, chicks blast it to all of their mutual friends in their social circle, how "Larry" was such a creep and had the audacity to hit me up. Next thing we see is the rejected doing something crazy (mass shootings, murder, suicide).People say some wicked, and mean-hearted shit behind the safety of their keyboard, just look at Surly. I don't necessarily agree with the "passport bros", but I understand. I'm lucky, found a levelheaded woman and will be married for 30 years in August. I can't imagine dating and trying to find a "till death do us part" partner in today's environment. CHIEF

  12. This is just so pathetic. He is just so adamant that aggy is "owed one" and they are going to use their crybaby tantrum to get a game at home lol who gives a single iota of a fuck outside of these goobers. I fucking LOVED that the last game was played at Kyle and we got to absolutely crush every dream that these sheep fuckers had with the herp derp run and eternal scoreboard kick. Now we get to go back to where that magic happened again...oh no Billy what ever will we do! Oh no, what an absolute disaster that we have to serve you another fucking reminder that big brother is back when we whoop your ass in your own house AGAIN! We just whooped your ass in front of your goofy fucking kids last time, as we have throughout your history, and NOW you are setting out a fucking door mat that reads "Thank you sir may I have another"

  13. I just watched that clip on the Finebaum show. Jesus. They really did make that shit up out of whole cloth and are trying to publicly bully the SEC into agreeing to that. The SEC was furious about the way ATM behaved in the summer of 2021. ATM tried to imply that they had some weight to throw around and called their emergency BOR meeting for a Monday on Friday afternoon and stated that discussing the Texas move to the SEC and their “options” was the agenda. Sankey asked them directly what their intent was and they hemmed and hawed around potentially leaving the conference. He told them to do that or cut the shit. Get right or get fucked. They immediately started acting like they were totally on board with the move. I’ve heard the story told the same way from friends in the AD at Bama and someone close to the powers that be in the UT system. It had to have come from Sankey or one of his people on the call. These idiots actually tried to leverage the notion that they would take their ball and go home if they didn’t get their way. Now ATM is trying the same exact shit over the stupid first home game, something no one cared about until they started chirping. It’s a bold strategy. If I’m Sankey, I put that game in Austin and tell them to shut the fuck up or they’ll wind up permanent rivals with Texas, LSU and Georgia.

  15. I have kept quiet on the counteroffensive and this is by design. But I want to say this: The Russian troops at many parts of the frontline are getting pounded by tubed and rocket artillery, Storm Shadow, JDAMs etc. Sometimes tanks and IFVs join the fray. The long range strikes such as in Tokmak and Melitopol in the last hours are even more interesting. Most if not all of that "repelled" attacks Russians claim are in fact them surviving barrage after another one and having a chance to report them. In some limited cases Ukrainian forces launch probing attacks and even get through. There are already permanent liberated areas, but that is not the purpose of probing attacks. Those few videos which sometimes appear are almost all videos from Russian sources and obviously cherry-picked. But they are not impressive either. Yes, when an army advances or launches probing attacks there are inevitable losses. During D-Day allies lost 2000 men in the first hour. But the enemy loses far more and, more importantly, the enemy has already to react in a forced way. The main strike hasn't arrived, yet. It can arrive anywhere and anytime at the front, even areas which have not been intensively shelled. Btw. I'm still on track with my predictions. Russians, however, are currently burning down their limited (mobile) reserves which they have in order to deal with the current situation. Intelligence gathering plays an important role at this stage, too, without going into details. Overall what I see right now is what I would expect from an Ukrainian counteroffensive. Keep calm and wait for the events to unfold

  17. Sanctions can take time, and negotiating and using diplomatic channels with other countries can be complex, frustrating, and generally a fucking mess. You know what is NOT a mess? Calling all of those chip companies and telling them in no uncertain terms that if they make ANY sales to ANY of those countries starting tomorrow, and the US finds out about it, they're fucking toast. We can do that today.

  23. Good point. Another thing: the Ukrainians are attacking, not defending. One of the greatest experts on world war two tank matters is Stephen Zaloga. In his book Armored Thunderbolt - about Sherman tanks in World War II, he presented very compelling evidence that the single biggest factor involved in tank losses in tank-on-Tank battles was NOT how thick the armor, how deadly the cannon, or other technical matters you would assume make the critical difference. Instead, it turns out that being the invading aggressor always led to a large number of those invading tanks being destroyed when compared to tanks in a defensive position utilizing defensive cover. Even the widely criticized, Sherman tanks (and tank destroyers with Sherman cannon and frames) were able to destroy several panzer battalions in the battle of Arracourt when the panzer’s were on the attack. The Germans lost a bunch of armor during the battle of the bulge as well when they were once again the invading aggressor. The US lost more Shermans when we advanced than when we defended. The problem being, we were always advancing. The good news was the Sherman was extremely mechanically reliable, and even though they were minor improvements throughout the war, none of them were major design changes that required the assembly lines to stop. Unlike the over engineered German tanks, the Shermans were reliable and easily fixed on the battlefield. My father drove his Sherman from France through Belgium, took the Remagen Bridge and advanced through Germany’s Rhineland until his division was stopped in Czechoslovakia. They were told the war was over, and per orders, he simply parked his tank and returned to Germany for occupation duty. tl;dr version Ukraine gonna lose more tanks as they are on the offensive, facing well defended positions with mines and artillery already having sighted in the ranges. It can’t be prevented in a war without air superiority.
