  1. Lol, for real. "Hey I'll offer you $XXX, but if you want more, I'm happy to pay more." In what fucking world does someone accept the offer? If course they'll ask for the higher price.
  2. I thought this sounded familiar, so I'll just quote myself here, still "asking questions" I see.
  3. Totality will hit my area in 2045, I fully intend to be alive that long.
  4. He’s the judge who decided the amount of the judgment as a fairly unprecedents $450 million, much of which is not restitution but penalties. If he wanted to fuck around he would have just set the judgment at $175 mil (or whatever the bond is). As has been said a bunch here, the bond is not to punish or dissuade appeals but to protect plaintiffs’ ability to collect. The dynamics are quite a bit different when it’s the state prosecuting the case and the judgement is largely penalties. Engeron isn’t fucking around. Trump is ultimately fucked and as I’ve argued before judgments before the election make no difference to his cult, he’ll get the same 80 million votes regardless of when these cases are concluded.
  5. From my office. I had a clear view from my window and had my glasses. We had 95% here and it got dim and spooky for a bit. Was kinda cool.
  6. I didn’t think the eclipse was a big deal, but why do so many people feel the need to rant against people who did? Local sports radio jock went off on it yesterday, calling people stupid for caring so much about something he considered lame, then had a 30 minute segment on golf. I found it hilarious because lots of people, including sports fans like myself, think golf is lame as shit, but that’s just my personal opinion. Let people like what they like for fucks sake.
  7. Oh for fucks sake, go fuck yourself Jerry. Willing to hire a real coach for your alma maters basketball team but not for your multi billion dollar NFL franchise. JFC I hate this man.
  8. Can see it clearly through my glasses from my office. The dimness over the city is kind of eerie.
  9. Pretty sure that every judge who has heard live testimony from him has deemed him not credible. If you want to be upset that perjury isn't prosecuted enough, I'm with you, because it very rarely gets invoked, and I think it's a problem, but it's not limited to celebrities, it's a problem across the board, in my opinion. He's also under scrutiny for his lies about the process in trying to secure a bond. He's fucked. It's going to take time, but he's not going to get away with anything, except maybe with Cannon. And like I said, the legal stuff is secondary to me, he needs to lose the fucking election. Afterward, let the system play out, he'll probably die before any real consequences, but death will be glorious.
  10. He could go to jail tomorrow and still get 80 million votes. Priority number one is to defeat him in the election in the few states that matter. He's going to be convicted and the money judgments against him will be affirmed. There's no doubt there in my mind, it's going to take time though. He just can't become president again despite how horrible half the people in this country have become.
  11. If it’s not a real bond it’ll be rejected.
  12. OSU will never win a national title in a meaningful sport and the Jones family will always own the Dallas Cowboys, so yeah, I honestly can’t think of a realistic moment that’ll be any more joyous than when the fat fuck dies. I hope it happens on stage and he shits himself and sprays it all over the front few rows of his crowd.
  13. Let me guess, she thinks the world is ending because gay people and ‘bortions. Stupidest fucking people.
  14. Definitely excited to take 2 from OU. They hit 12 home runs and still lost the series. We hit 8 I think. They walked in a bunch of runs today. Just a weird series. I think our pitching is looking good but then again 12 damn home runs. The rest of the season is gonna be crazy in the standings.
  15. No, it was a few years later. I was in the concourse that game and saw the beams shaking.
  16. Is that what that is? I always thought it meant rock on.
  17. For 91 indictments and a half dozen civil cases they are moving faster than what I would expect, and only one finding a bad judge is pretty decent, there way more than that on the bench. The problem isn’t the legal system, he’ll get convicted, and the judgments will be affirmed. The problem is that 80 million shitstain Americans will still vote for him and an entire political party hails him as their undisputed king. No legal system can fix that, if that’s what the mob wants, well then, just end this country and let states figure out if they want to be democracies or dictatorships. I’ll be moving to a place where the majority are willing to act like civilized adults.
  18. Gottlieb is cool, except when OSU needs basketball coach and he uses his radio show to lobby for the job, dividing the fan base between people who think people who want to coach should go out and fucking coach, and idiots who think he should be given the job because he’s an alum. The latter is much larger and vocal than should ever be expected. Goddamn, this is definitely the right thread.
  19. I work on a very high floor and rarely felt them during the day. The scariest one was when my daughter was maybe 2 and in the bathtub and when it hit it popped like a shotgun and the water started swishing around and she was crying in a way I distinctly recall being genuine fear. It was one of the bigger ones, would have been 2014 or 2015. Not bad overall but man that moment it hit was scary. The videos from Taiwan are terrifying.
  20. This fucking asshole.
  21. This fucking asshole throwing a football in the dugout. Damn I hate ou.
  22. OSU used to designate OU or UT, whichever was home, as a “premium” game you could only get with a season ticket. It was to get more season tickets sold, not to slight the opponent. Our fans hated it more than anyone else. They could still be found pretty easy on stubhub. We haven’t done that in a long time since season tickets and attendance have been strong on their own.
  23. A few athletes making a vocal stand would help, but UT, aggy, et al, aren't going to be hurting for recruits because of this, and it wouldn't matter all that much to the assholes in the legislature. It's going to take Fortune 500 companies saying they will leave to make any sort of a mark. But they might have to pay more taxes elsewhere, not to mention the magats in their board rooms, so ain't nothin' gonna happen.
