  1. So we've moved on from Gavin Newsome doing the exact same thing because a struggling company dared to state why they are leaving a certain state. Cool. Or prior examples going back decades. And, to be fair you also have a favorite book
  2. They picked a fight "first"? They never picked a fight at all. When companies leave markets - they state why. So you have no issues with Gavin inserting himself into the conversation with snarky insults because of why they stated that they are leaving for states with better economic/regulatory environments? As for trolling businesses? The WH has been trolling businesses going back to the 30's. This idiotic rebranding has erased over $90M in market value and $200 in capitalization.
  3. Those are two different accounts. But i get the point of the WH trolling CB. But that's what it is, trolling. As Newsome did with BB&B. They called out that they are leaving the state due to regulatory issues and state difficulties. They never directly called Newsome out, who then...trying to be "Trumpish", decided to go after them directly.
  4. You sure about that? That Trump called it "woke" directly?
  5. It's not political to me - it's rehashed corporate fuckery when a new "leader" comes in and feels the need to put their fingerprint on worthless shit that doesn't need changing. You want to get most patrons attention, start selling even cooler shit in the gift shop. Contract with RTIC or YETI. Start selling fishing and outdoor gear. Take a page out of the modern hunting apparel playbook and brand cool hunting gear/clothing like Carhart and Dickey's did. Shit, I'd rock a camo Cracker Barrel shirt during dove season. Cater to the rural "frat bros" and red dirt country kids that could make CB "cool" again.
  6. National importance? Seems he's trolling them and the stupidity of such a trivial change that subsequently tanked their stock. Or did you also take umbrage with Gavin Newsome trolling Bed bath & Beyond for moving out of state? I will fight you.....;)
  7. Nothing like a simple plan involving "rolling back regulatory barrier and bureaucrats". Tell me how it goes Then change the law and get back to us on your progress This is simplistic. I'm talking about city designs, specifically post WWII sprawl and the advent of the Federal-Aid Highway act. Highway location and designs, infrastructure all geared for the automobile and cities zoned specifically to separate residential, commercial, & industrial specifically because everyone had cars. If you want to pitch this in the much more congested and older NE cities, be my guest. So you want to bring back coal-fired steam engines. Great point.
  8. And how do you propose to mitigate this going forward at scale? You can't even build a simple, short route that is even remotely affordable. The horse is out of the barn, people aren't giving up their cars at scale nor are these "regulatory capture" issues going to just go away.
  9. Reconcile this. With this? You have less than a 200 mile stretch that costs more than a fifth of what our entire road system costs, and you think this is scalable? Or that it's a one-off that won't replicate in other projects?
  10. Listening to a podcast about the early air marshals post-9/11. They had a provision in their contract that they could "shoot" their way to a larger salary, ie., timed shots on the range. EX. Shoot a 2.4, maybe your base is $50K. but lower the time to a 2.2, maybe now you make $56K, etc. Drop below 2.0, you make even more.
  11. Nobody gives two shits about a logo change - it's change for the sake of some CEO mouth breather coming and and pointing to "see, look what I did" shit. See earlier example of Pizza Hut. The premise that it's "about staying relevant across digital platforms" is just stupid. It's fucking Cracker Barrel. You only go there because it has a cool gift shop, it's right off the highway, and it's not fast food in a gas station. There - the three legs of the your marketing stool of genius.
  12. What "kids" are going to CB of their own volition that aren't in the store because they are almost always off the HWY and make for a decent place to stop on a road trip with their parents. Cant' remember a time I didn't get breakfast there at all hours of the day. Every time I'm there....
  13. They're pigs. If you can procure some military ball ammo, try that if you feel safe running it in your rifle. Zips through most anything. Wacked an oinker years back with an old M1 Garand will ball ammo. Sleepy pig had two small holes on each side. If you let the air out of them, they take naps.....:)
  14. He was walking around campus during an active shooter scenario with a fucking nerf gun trying to go viral on Tik Tok. He's lucky he was only "detained"
  15. Part of what seems to be a coordinate series of calls across the country - ISU, South Carolina, and Villanova were called in as well along with a few HS's.
  16. I have a kid on campus. Girl that works for me as well. Both are fine. No confirmed shots fired or casualties. This appears coordinated. Similar calls were made today at South Carolina, Iowa State, and Villanova as well as a few HS's. Reports that it may be "swatting"
  17. The armadillo never sees me When I hit him with my brights His life don't pass before his eyes He's blinded by my lights And so I hit him with my bumper Doin' sixty, sixty-five They take 'em frozen down in Hallettsville They don't take 'em alive
  18. Rainy and cold. Damn I wish I was there…..
  19. What, the actual, fuck is this.....
  20. Little Yaga said the same thing. There are nice parts of almost any campus, but the majority of the campus sucks. Didn't help that the corps groups were all over the place. The AR campus is gorgeous as are the surrounding mountains and small towns.
  21. ATM says hi......;)
  22. Just get one of these and f them ugly ass shoes
  23. Hotel Emma fucks.....hard!
  24. Easy to stagger....or be carried.....back to your room.....:
