  1. @blacklab wondering right now if it was such a good idea to "create his own website"
  2. my smallish company is doing an anniversary cruise in October. Carnival out of Galveston. I knew it was bad, but yall are making feel awesome about it. Oh well week away from the kids, and no cost, so I intend on getting blasted and watching the Walmart shit sho.
  3. I've wondered for a long time why DT and CR are not merged into one. Quite a few other forums I'm on handle it that way, and do not have the overflow problem we have here. I've also seen a news forum split out where topics are approved by mods, threads are locked unless new news needs to be added (approved or added by mods) and the first post has a link to the thread where discussion is allowed (CR in our case). This is likely lots more work, but it functions the way folks here want it to function.
  4. Cross posted from rain thread:
  5. I don’t necro neg unless it’s retaliation, but I am guilty of strafing these disingenuous shitheads for every single post of their vomit on a thread. Can you provide a link to this post? I cannot see what you can, and these 3 negs may have timestamps for you that are long after the fact, but it also may be that the disingenuous dipshit was spewing garbage all over the thread, and while that particular post wasn’t neg worthy (IYO) folks were negging every chance they got to remove a troll. Rep, Serious Business… Edit to add: found the post. I was off base on my characterization above. However, past posting history will color folks to auto neg disingenuous posters. That one may not have been neg worthy, but many before it were (and a poster that had been banner before like this is going to not be given the benefit of the doubt). So yes, politics is part of it (and to be fair, the thread he was on, the day of the post, I’m not surprised just his name didnt get more negs). Honestly rep should probably just be turned off. It should definitely be off for non sports forums, but I understand the forum software limits.
  6. Weird, last time I complained about a DT poster doing this, I got a couple days ban, and he got to keep posting. (in fairness, I was drunk, and being disruptive to the thread) How should we report this behavior? @Fudge Nuggets is correct, there are going to be some snowflakes big mad at this policy.
  7. Since when does the Rio Grande flow into the highland lakes?
  8. Carrot Weather You can even customize it to look exactly like DarkSky if that is your thing. Has something like 20 different data sources, and the Apple Watch app is also great. I even have a tied in to my Personal weather station, so if I'm within 2 miles of my house, all of the real time data is coming from the weather station in my backyard.
  9. No worries, grab any good shit now and post it later in case they start deleting shit.
  10. What have they ever shown that would convince you they can do anything other than shitty?
  11. Balloon Kills for F-22 - 1 Balloon Kills for SU-57 - 0 #Greenspointballgame
  12. You know damn well Russia doesn't have F-22's. How could they shoot something so viscous down without them?
  13. Screenshots for the rest of us?
  14. Man that is nice. Maybe in a few years I can ditch my full-size and get back to a midsize. I really miss my 2nd gen.
  15. couple of pics from our visit a few years back. One of the highlights from a week and a half camping around the PNW.
  16. Abels was first.
  17. Nice. Heard good things about the Rook. Love my Reylights.
  18. How do you like it?
  19. True. as I’m a mystery ranch guy, im less concerned. I’m also a huge X-PAC guy, so I don’t get the concern. I prefer it to the Halcyon fabric of my parental Unit. But im a bag nerd. All 3 of my MR bags are X-PAC, with one being 80% Dyneema. I love the durability and waterproofness of X-PAC.
  20. Of Course a knife guy is also a backpack nerd. Had a synapse for a bit, but the straps just never sat right on my shoulders. So got rid of it. We used a Parental Unit for our diaper bag for our kiddo, and the only tote bags I use at HEB are the Bihn Monster Trucks. GREAT totes. Great company as well. My daily carry backpack now rotates between three different Mystery Ranch bags. The Futura yoke system is a game changer for comfort. I'll give the same disclaimer I gave for the backpack game I gave for lights. Don't go down that road. Will cost you so much money.
  21. No, I think @TXSooner518 is the lawyer that has worked with municipal Texas traffic courts, and provided good insight/advice in years past. But I may be getting my worthless Sooners/Lawyers mixed up.
  22. @TXSooner518 Seemed like our resident expert a few years back.
