  1. "innocent bystanders" lol "Innocent of what?" -Little Bill, Sheriff of Big Whiskey
  2. Yes. Yes. These people are fucking dumb. Always remember that.
  3. Rather eat an Arby's sammich than a mcrib
  4. UT wins, pedo loses, if gata beats aggy I might just stroke out
  5. Right now I'm so happy I'd fuck Holly Rowe
  6. well if you kick 30 field goals, you are certain to miss one.
  7. Others aren't drinking enough and that also shows
  8. Would you say they are going to put the system on trial?
  9. I remember about 10 or 15 years ago when they switched having a deposit box for "local" vs "out of town" to the current system. Before the switch, people could sometimes get their mail the same day it was dropped at the post office, or by the next day at the latest. Now it takes three to four days.
  10. Fuck it, lets hang 50 on the dirt burglars.
  11. As a child, Brent Venables played under high voltage power lines
  12. when my daughter was little, she liked to play "Free Street." I would pretend to shop, and when I asked how much whatever I was buying cost, she would say somethingl along the lines of 'Daddy, everything is free on Free Street." And I would have to pretend to be amazed by such a thing. Then everytime we played, Free Street would get even crazier, and if I bought one car for free, I would get a second car for free also. Then it would escalate all the way up to I get a million dollars back in change. IIRC, she was about four years old at the time.
  13. did the DoTArD actually say something like that? 1400% cheaper?
  14. I think the first class people boarded with everyone else. Or if they had their own entrance/boarding door, then at least one large family got fucked. Once you get to your seats, its fine. Its just getting through the tight, smelly, hot logjam to get to your seats that fucking sucks. And you're having to deal with luggage also. However, only rode it once in my life, so maybe I was just unlucky that day. Also, it was early July, so tourist season.
  15. The India comparison is perfect, but there is assigned seating. Maybe they also sell standing room tickets, I don't know. People camp out on the stairs with no fucks given that they are blocking access to the upper level seats. Conductors were mia or didn't give a shit. I told the kid and wife to stay close and just stomped through and over them. I'm sitting in a seat I paid for by gawd, not squatting in the stairs like im on a chicken bus. Id rather fly spirit than go through that again.
  16. Just horribly crowded. A complete mosh pit getting on then having to fight your way through hot stinking crowds to get to your seat. People sitting in the stairwell blocking access, standing around in the drink car because they couldn't get to their seats, etc. This was in the summer so it was the busy season I guess.
  17. Yeah when we went a few years ago , I would start out in French with my drawl and they would quickly switch to English. Generally they seemed to appreciate the effort. Outside of Paris they were a little more snobbish about it but not too bad. Germans were a lot worse and I don't speak any German. Last bit of general advice to anybody going to France:Do NOT ride the TGV.
  18. How far did he have to ride that sub, even at periscope depth? I don't specifically remember from the movie, but seems a little (or very) improbable. Even as a kid, seemed like a major plot hole. Agree on your first point
  19. I lived at dobie my freshman year on the 16th floor. I'd get on elevator and every fucking floor would be pushed on an empty elevator Rage inducing
  20. When something is snail mailed across town in my small town it gets sent to a distribution center in a city 200 hundred miles away
  21. Just finished First in a planned trilogy by The Expanse writers. Not as good as The Expanse series, kind of out there. But I'll probably read the entire trilogy when it comes out.
  22. and try not to get stabbed or steal any cars grease trucks on the way.
  23. Let he who hasn't gotten hammered in Indianapolis and tried to steal a car cast the first stone.
  24. My go to late night I've-got-the-munchies snack is Cookies and Cream ice cream with fresh strawberries, so I might have to try this.
