  1. “90 lb gorilla” may be the funniest unintentional comedy I’ve read in today’s screenshots.
  2. I’m going to live my life believing that @Grimas was the expert-level troll in the App St gear today, and I don’t want to be told otherwise
  3. Don’t stray too far though. I hear it’s common for visitors to completely lose sight of the stadium and wander around lost until an aggy kindly walks them the 500 feet back to Kroger Field
  4. “Roof”, huh? How many players can be expected to regularly see it there versus the CEILING of the locker room? Or is that their daily 420 spot?
  5. Natty Natty Shooter, the floor is yours
  6. Phenomenal. Let’s go ahead and do it again next weekend
  7. I may have to pull out a pen and paper to sketch out a diagram of this. Or is this one of those things where you were supposed to start with “Confucius say…”
  8. Win the cfp? keep all recruits and coaches outside of pk - Surly
  9. At your advanced age, asking for pics of someone’s grandma still feels a little pedo-y…
  10. Maybe… But to be fair, he (aggy mongo) probably wouldn’t weigh nearly as much if not for the likelihood that every cell in his body is having to carry an extra chromosome
  11. Super late to the discussion after seeing I got tagged… thought I’d still throw my thoughts in the thread for flattie or anybody else considering a JT, now that I have some time. With respect to flattie’s issues, I can’t say I’ve experienced any of those, thankfully. My start/stop is pretty instantaneous… about on par with my trail boss, and only a tick slower than my wife’s F-150. Certainly not enough of a difference to think much of it. Like others have said, key fob stays in the pocket. Only time I’ve had to push the button with the fob was when I had tried to start it without the key fob (had left it in the house but thought it was in my pocket). Message popped up on the dash that key fob had to be pressed into the button before it would start (for security reasons, it would appear). As far as cabin space, I’m 6’2” and haven’t had any issues. I normally keep my seat pretty far back, but not at the max, and it’s pretty comfortable for me. And usually have to scoot it up a couple clicks when the 16 month old rides with me (car seat is behind the drivers seat) to give it sufficient clearance to pivot in a crash, and still don’t feel uncomfortable. Then again, this is my third jeep, so maybe I’m just used to it. Certainly not as roomy as our full sized trucks, but still feels roomier than my previous 2 doors. And sliding or getting loose around corners hasn’t been an issue, but I also have the max tow package, so I’m geared lower and don’t have as much pep as other JTs likely do. My trail boss on the other hand is an automatic for getting loose on corners regardless of road conditions… All in all, I’m very happy with it. Still miss having a wrangler at times, but the gladiator fits my needs and uses more than the wrangler these days. The only real issue I’ve had with it is an issue I had with my JK as well, but it’s not that big of a deal. The Uconnect system will randomly reset itself, and there is no rhyme or reason to it. At least with the JT, when it does it, I don’t lose presets and audio preferences. Just shuts off and back on again with a startup message while driving (not often, but every now and then). In the Jk, I would have to reprogram everything outside of Bluetooth connection. And that cover looks awesome, @smuggs. I’ve been making do with the tri-fold that came on mine (quickly marred it up and put indentions in it from loading my mtbs and other gear on it) but pretty sure I’m going to pull the trigger on one of those sooner than later. Hadn’t see one on a JT yet, but it looks really good.
  12. I have a feeling the shirts were no coincidence either, but that’s none of my business…
  13. I, for one, want to offer my extreme gratitude for you sacrificing your would-be footwear expenses for a noble cause
  14. Oh, you “considered it”. Well then… thank you for your service
  15. Center for University Nutrition at Texas- Athlete Specific Services
  16. Pretty sure he meant pics of the female friend. And I’m kinda thinking I wouldn’t have let Ignatius know where to go find the daughter pics. edit: unless this female friend is the “take on a family Rv trip/crash into bridges with” type friend
  17. Holy shit… I know those people. They looked familiar so I googled and sure enough it’s them. They live up in McKinney. Used to lay pipe on that dude’s crazy ass ex for a bit back in the day. CSB?
  18. Hadn’t had time to check in on this thread in a while (or ride either, unfortunately). Sorry to hear about the theft, Twice. But it sounds like the upside of the new bike is far outweighing the downside of having the old one stolen. My mojo came with the same tire combo, and I had plans to swap even before taking delivery… but like you, I’ve been pleasantly surprised by them. They’ve treated me well on every type of trail so far, from hard pack, to sandy Northshore, to bike parks in Colorado. They’ve just flat out worked. And to throw in my two cents about the Fox suspension talk further up thread, it seems that the hate was mostly confined to the fit4 damper. Fox, thankfully, took note and mostly went back to the grip dampers. My factory came with the grip2 and it’s handled everything I’ve thrown at it. If your performance came with the grip or grip2, and you’re already liking it (which appears to be the case), you’re gonna love it once it’s fully broken in. Bike looks great! And the top tube graphics are dope!
  19. Not missing a word that the Chinese tour guide said while taking a kneeling shit may be the weirdest humblebrag I’ve ever heard
