  1. Took my boys to see it today. Not a bad way to get out of the heat for a while. Cool little twist in it too with one of the main characters.
  2. Nicole's favorite scene from Breaking Bad

    Shit My Kid Says

    Among Us is only entertaining if played with close friends. It's just a video game version of a traditional social deduction game. Most games have 10 or so players. You're on a space ship and have to do tasks to get the ship ready to launch (the tasks are stupid simple point and click mini games). The catch is 1 or 2 people are 'imposters' which don't do tasks but instead kill the other players. Once a dead body is seen and reported, everyone is pulled into a meeting and people have to make their case who the imposters are or to defend yourself if you're being accused. At the end of the meeting, everyone has a vote to boot someone off the ship who they think is the imposter. If the imposters are booted or they finish the tasks, the players win. If the imposters can kill everyone before the tasks are completed, the imposters win. TLDR; it's not a video game that you have to learn to play as all the interactions are simple point and click mini games; The strategy is either bullshitting people or being convincing in your arguments. As many attornies are on this board, a Surely game of Among Us would probably be pretty entertaining, especially if booze is involved.

    Shit My Kid Says

    Just be glad he's saying it innocently. My 11 yr old is always trying to catch me slipping. Got called sus for eating a hot dog aka a glizzy.
  5. You can go peddle that dumb shit to the old boomers on facebook. Demand for fossil fuels isn't going anywhere and they know it. You wanna sell they don't want to tie up capex on building new refineries? Sure, maybe I can buy that due to the time horizon but spinning up old wells or drilling new ones is a nothingburger in the long run. It has nothing to do with Biden or anyone elses threats about getting rid of fossil fuels and everything about purposely sitting idle and taking profits. The only people crying about the 'new green deal' and the world transitioning over to renewables are either O&G shareholders or mineral rights holders. Like everything else with capitalism, those who are getting those sweet divvys or cashing the royalty checks are perfectly fine letting the planet burn itself up in the name of money.
  6. That and some smooth brain shit about federal land leases.
  7. https://www.reuters.com/business/energy/drilling-vs-returns-us-oil-producers-tradeoff-windfall-tax-threatens-2022-06-13/ Here's a live shot of the oil companies discussing ramping up production to ease the pain at the pump
  8. LOL, my dad-instincts immediately kicked in before I even read the tweet. Saw mom lazily pushing them and my brain immediately went to "I bet you could pick up some wicked speed pushing it from the middle".
  9. "You don't like it? I thought for sure you'd love it. You were talking in your sleep the other night and I heard you saying something about running a train in the bedroom. You never mentioned you were into trains now but I thought this would be perfect."
  10. I may have cut it off by mistake when grabbing the snapshot. It's miles driven.
  11. The math in this video for the CO2 produced during battery production is very dubious, even being 2 years old. Most studies have put 75kwh batteries at a cost of around 5 tons of CO2 to produce. A Tesla Model 3 long range comes with a 82kwh pack and has 350 miles of range. Using current calcs, his chart would look something more like this (and this is not even addressing what info he used to calculate his co2 use over time).
  12. Talk about being out of touch. The people who are affected by a rise in gas prices just need to move to the city center of one of the most expensive cities in the country. Wow.
  13. clapclapclap is shorthand for a triple case of gonorrhea and this post is just one of the side affects: bloody discharge from a vagina. This thread just needs a good round of antibiotics.
  14. I bet it was comfortable as fuck though and could fit a bunch of people in it.
  15. Tesla = Apple. Soon enough Tesla cars will be the macbook/iPhone. There will still be loyalists and fanboys that will only buy Tesla products but all the legacy automakers are going to gobble up most of the market share ala Windows/Android once EVs become more mainstream.
