  1. We are literally living the exact same life.
  2. I don't. And I don't bring this up w/r/t what those fucking imbeciles on Texags think. They're lunatics. I just think parroting this line that "Arch isn't taking any NIL until he's a starter" is an absurd PR function. He seems like a great dude with a great head on his shoulders with a support system that doesn't require he maximize NIL. But let's stop pretending the kid isn't getting paid anything. Unless I'm wrong and he's not actually getting anything. Which is sorta why I asked the question in the first place. I suppose I should have brought this up in the NIL mega thread.
  3. I know this is what the Mannings and the program are saying publicly, but does anyone really believe this? That Arch is getting zero NIL funds last year and this year and all he gets is his scholarship? I find that impossible to believe.
  4. Do you get to kill and/or fuck anyone when time traveling? I feel like that's important to know.
  5. My wife went through menopause at 39. Had our last kid at the age of 38 and she never got another period. It's like our son was the very last egg. I think that's why he's such a pain in the ass. But she's handled it like a champ. Key seemed to be getting on the right combination of hormones. She went back on the pill for more estrogen (tried a few different pills). Once we found the right combination it's been pretty manageable. She had mild temperature changes and didn't have terrible mood swings. Other than the fact that it came about a decade earlier than it should have, fortunately it hasn't been too terrible on her. Now she's just paranoid that she's going to drop dead because her "body is shutting down." The most difficult part of this for husbands is definitely a decrease in sex drive. It's very, very real. She says she just literally never thinks about it, but once we are "in the moment" it's enjoyable. Scheduling sex has worked for us so that she is mentally prepared and ready to participate. It's not the sexiest, but it works. She's been a trooper about that as well.
  6. Orca killed the great white because she could. Orca's sinking boats because fuck boats. Team Orca.
  7. I fucking hate that we've got to the point where a story comes out like this and I can't even remember "someone killed 18 people in Maine" because it all just blurs together into a terrifying collage of tragedy after tragedy
  8. It's funny that the things you've taken issue with are the aroma of poor quality marijuana and large women in small swimsuits and not the shootings and all-night anarchy.
  9. my sister always drowned her fried okra in ketchup when we went to luby's. because she was 8 years old at the time.
  10. Dallas Turner is gonna be a "8 sacks and 8 unnecessary roughness/roughing the passer penalties a year" guy.
  11. I mean, that's what they're saying now after everyone said "Wendy's can get fucked" with this dynamic pricing bullshit. My personal opinion is that they ABSOLUTELY meant surge pricing and only said "no wait everyone, we didn't mean SURGE pricing! We meant pricing would go DOWN!" after everyone realized Wendy's isn't good enough to get away with that shit.
  12. I wonder if Harvdog posted Tunmise's bail? He's a good kid, after all.
  13. Wendy's is in a weird position in the market. They're better than McDonald's, Burger King, Sonic and Jack in the Box, but not as good as Whataburger, In N Out, Shake Shack , or 5 Guys. They're neither really cheap like the shit chains, nor are their burgers "good" like the others. (I don't post this to argue whether any of the "better" chains deserve to be in that category.)
  14. No it doesn't. Not when there's usually a Popeye's around much closer than a Wendy's. Wendy's isn't nearly popular enough, nor do they have enough locations to do surge pricing. Chick-fil-a could get away with that shit. Wendy's can't.
  15. Let’s just stop this “what I prefer to eat for dinner” bullshit right now.
  16. Gonna put all the stuff I normally do in the ground this week. I don't think it's gonna freeze again this year. I'll do 4 types of tomatoes, japs, serranoes, habaneros, and cayenne. I make fermented hot sauce from the peppers. I put two chili pequins in the garden last year and they got huge and killed off most of my peppers because they robbed all the light. I'll put one pequin in a large container this year instead. I put cukes directly into the lawn soil and run them up a trellis. These "winter" temps and lack of rain have me concerned about this summer.
  17. Runny eggs are delicious. I'd rather have runny eggs than burnt eggs. Burnt eggs taste like sulfer farts.
  18. No one outside of Lake Travis would be talking about this if the kid wasn't a 4-star D1 football prospect. He's basically a public figure at this point, and he needs to learn to act accordingly. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes, you dipshit. Also, his mom is on the board of some sort of OU athletics support/booster bullshit. Even if he hadn't almost killed a teammate, he was probably never gonna come here.
  19. I'll give it a spin. I actually don't think I've ever listened to the whole record. I guess that's the record they made right before Rhett got sober. I read an interview somewhere that Jason Isbell was a resource for him when quitting drinking/weed.
  20. I mean, I get it. But if I want to listen to the Old 97s, I want to listen to the good shit that I like that got me into them. I know every note, every lyric to every song on their first three records. I dig Fight Songs and Satellite Rides, but don't listen to those albums as much. And Drag it Up was good but all I really love off that record is "won't be home." Everything after that felt/feels like the Rhett Miller-easy-listening-pop-experience where the songs could be used in the reconciliation scene of a rom com. They set a standard that was impossible to maintain. I still want to see them live again though.
  21. Fuck, forgot about another Drive By Truckers song. They wrote a shit ton of songs about other musicians. And not just a passing reference. Like a whole goddamn song:
