  1. i especially like the part where he says “many saying don’t do it, sir”, then immediately follows that up with the “...many more mistakes of judgement” projection. every time he injects the word “sir” into his stories...
  2. i keep tryna figure out why them dumb shits want him to testify here. i was gonna ask the surly collective, but, well, yeah.
  3. cafeteria food talk not going away
  4. we picked this little guy up a week ago. his name is chancho! anyway, i been feeding him blue buffalo wilderness puppy food the past week until my wife texted me this afternoon demanding we switch his food asap. apparently some facebook story floating around about someone’s dog dying after eating this brand. she seems pretty adamant about changing so i come to the surly collective for suggestions.
  5. bought mw around black friday and haven’t even loaded it into my ps4 yet. cod mobile has been occupying my time just fine.
  6. spent the better part of yesterday moving our acct over from at&t prepaid to t-mobile. the acct is for our two 12 yr olds (blended fam) and FIL who is currently rocking a flip phone in some louisiana bayou. my wife and i have at&t service thru work so who cares if my kids’ reception sucks outside of austin. not me is who. anyway, the end result is 3 lines of magenta plus for $112/mo and premium netflix for $3. not bad considering prepaid on the kids’ lines was $77/mo total with 8GB data each plus adding in my FIL. they gave me a 20% f&f code which covers the entire acct forever. so i’ll be keeping this fucker for when i need to add my other chirrens when they’re old enough for phones.
  7. well done, sir this nightmare is almost over. i hope.
  8. still haven’t heard anything official about any kind of “event” at work today. i’m holding out hope that he goes to flex then gtfo. don’t want this shit where i eat. maybe i’ll just work from home today.
  9. where are you seeing this? i don’t want this asshole anywhere on our campus. tim apple can stay though, he cool.
  10. and why is the next phase of this annual exam being done next year?
  11. 17 year old me drove up from el paso to the south park meadows show with a buddy for this. i remember it differently than you, bc i loved it. i still wear that concert tee from time to time. 20+ years later, you’re goddamn right i’ll be driving from austin to el paso and then to las cruces for this. sure i can fly, but fuck that. i have a much better car now haha.
  12. a buddy of mines is a contractor so i talked to him about getting his painters out to do our living room. luckily they was workin an outside job and the rain meant they had an immediate opening. fuckers knocked the living room and stairwell out in 3 hours. well worth the expense just like y’all said. we talked to them about painting our cabinets and the look on their faces was something. they was quite confused why we’d want to paint over 5yr old cabinets that still looked brand new. clearly they’re unaware the power pinterest has over madame dirt. our mantle is chopped limestone that my wife wants me to rip out in favor of a beam. thing is our fireplace extends 20’ up the wall and i’m afraid that if i chisel out the mantle, the rest of it will crash down on me. maybe that’s her plan?
  13. well y’all convinced me. i’ll be outsourcing said said giant walls. i did manage to knock out two rooms over the weekend though. it was liked therapy after that shitshow of a game saturday afternoon.
  14. we’re in the process of replacing blinds with plantation shutters. this has led to my worst nightmare, painting the interior walls before installation. i actually enjoy painting, but i’m starting with the living room this weekend, which has 20’ ceilings. this may well be the end for me.
  15. clearly y’all aren’t familiar with the ol’ “i don’t even know him” defense
  16. he doesn’t get paid to do his job. “See whether or not all of the other of your favorites, your other favorites gave up their salary. The answer is no.” - PABOTUS
  17. got two quotes this week. they were really far apart too, by 60%. i expected variance but goddamn. both are basswood. the cheaper is made in houston. the more expensive is graber, made in mexico with us hardwoods that’swhatshesaid. guess i’ll get one more quote just to see what the actual price should be.
  18. hey asshole, don’t drag me into this
  19. we just got back from a week in oahu without the kids. i hadn’t been in nearly 20 years and this was the first trip there for lady dirt. we stayed in waikiki and did all the tourist stuff like hiking diamond head, waimea falls, dole, north shore, etc. now that that’s out of the way, next time we can go to a different island and actually just relax.
  20. we are looking to replace all faux blinds in our home with plantation shutters. any of y’all degenerates have recommendations in the greater austin area? anybody ever go the online route with diy installation?
  21. the party of honest abe lincoln. l-o-fuckin-l
