  1. When I was a kid, WWII was way closer time-wise than Vietnam is now. I think that’s a part of the problem. In the 70s and 80s we knew Nazis were bad. The Blues Brothers knew Nazis were bad and openly mocked them in a movie.
  2. Need to paint lines on the snow
  3. Trump was already not happy about the “President Musk” stuff and Musk managed to upstage all of the stuff that Trump wanted credit for yesterday. Trump is probably at his limit with Musk.
  4. Tourette’s maybe, but I doubt even that. These assholes trying to claim it’s autism don’t know what autism is or they are truly desperate for a final solution to making this thing blow over. They might have had a case if his arm went from his heart to a big wave with the palm vertical, but that shit that he did was a Nazi salute.
  5. Like the kids who grew up watching the Soviet Union fall, and who want the Soviet Union back because they had good memories of it.
  6. Sun has been popping out for several minutes at a time, and we are about to go above freezing, so it’ll be gone by this afternoon.
  7. Snowing in Central Austin off and on. And it’s not melting when it hits vehicles or the ground, which means shit is cold, which means everybody made the right call about tomorrow. AM roads are gonna be
  8. https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/elon-musk-lets-slip-may-160445034.html
  9. Given how much he tries to lecture people on Twitter about history, and given that he grew up in Apartheid South Africa, I’m going to guess that he’s a little familiar with the salute.
  10. Best comment: “Elon is searching for devices,if you would like to pair a new device to Elon please make sure that device is in pairing mode.”
  11. Check out Halperin’s background while you’re at it. The guy is a real piece of shit, and should have actually been prosecuted.
  12. Yep. And unfortunately it stuck, because it’s sexy for the news/meteorologists. Should just name it after the month and year.
  13. Not really. Too many people vowed to make him pay, even though they had 6-7 months in 2020 when they could have tried. Some of these same people are going to make a run at vaccines for school kids as well.
  14. Edit: Somebody said the original video is like a popcorn ceiling tile painted green, and now I can't unsee it. But also, could have been done underwater, giving the chicken egg its motion. My 12 year-old can do better than that, and he does all kinds of green-screen stuff with his Legos, and he knows how to color grade. Shit, where did they get green shag carpet in the 2020s in the parody video? Edit, looks like they got the rug from Walmart
  15. So I avoided this thread like..you know...anyways, got to have a kidney and some lymph nodes out last summer, and I avoided this thread and Google in general because I didn't want to ponder the worst-case scenarios and I had already been stressing the shit out of myself and losing sleep without reading about it even more. It was far enough along that they couldn't save the kidney (I didn't even realize they could partially remove a kidney), but I still got one and it looks great and I'm taking better care of myself and my last kidney. My 3-month checkup looked great - they believe they got everything. About to get my 6-month checkup. Thankfully I had an acquaintance-turned-close-friend who went through almost the same thing last January, about 6 months before I did, so I had the run-down (and his urologist/surgeon). I got lucky as all get out. I got a very tiny glimpse of the hell some of you all have been through, and y'all are amazing.
  16. Mario Party Jamboree is perfect to purchase tonight in preparation for Snowpocalypse. This is a damn fine looking game from the YouTube videos.
  17. I’m not going back through the last few pages but what about tomorrow? This gal I’m occasionally banging on the side has a dipshit boss that had some big mandatory meeting on cutting costs and efficiency and motivation crap (sounds like her boss got hooked on Tony Robbins videos) in Houston on Tuesday, and last I heard he’s not canceling it, so she was going to fly from Dallas to Hobby. Which is not very efficient and is definitely not cutting costs, but whatever. Anyways, she said she booked us a five-star hotel for the night. She mentioned a niece that was going to be tagging along on the trip, but I’m not sure if niece by marriage or by blood, so I’m hoping things don’t get weird and that the niece is elsewhere. So is Hobby open tomorrow?
  18. Austin ISD just called it, closed Tuesday.
  19. She’s a 10 compared to who Leon is spending his free time looking at these days
  20. Pretty sure AISD and the City of Austin will close if we get even two inches. Can’t blame them becasue whatever we get will be tomorrow night and will be frozen Tuesday morning into the afternoon. Question is when will they call it.
  21. Wait meteorologists are fucking models?
