  1. What the fuck was that shit
  2. Mississippi aggy is annoying.
  3. Why does the guy from idiocracy now have a “Texas” accent…..
  4. Come back from ECNL soccer domination to this bucket of cat shit. What the actual fuck is going on here.
  5. Go get that fucking OC for tOSU. The coach every program should be targeting. Fuck an another meh HC.
  6. Even MS has to have their own aggy...
  7. He's talking about making some poor schlub bring your stuff to your car in the rain vs. getting out and getting it yourself
  8. Ranch is in Coleman. Live in Frisco. North Dallas
  9. Last night's storms and lightning was epic.
  10. And next years it's brutal - so the playbook is to lock him in now. Full extension. Then go 8-4 next year. rinse. wash .. repeat
  11. Volquartsen makes SUPERB stuff. All of it. Cadillac of .22s
  12. Bet she already understands disappointment....
  13. I've seen this movie before
  14. Hell, sometimes that was a good weekend
  15. Yep. We were like little bowhunters, adjusting for elevation and drop. You had to arc it in there and we got damn good at adjusting for distance.
  16. I think back in the 80's it was less than $200? I was a little guy, and all my cobbled together money was in a Crown Royal bag. Quarters, $2 bills, just a hodge-podge of money from mowing lawns, birthday money, etc.
  17. We used to bullseye surfaced turtle heads in stock ponds out past 100yds all the time. Big tanks, multiple acres. We'd set up these little 'sniper hides' on the elevated tank dam and murder those little shits. One shot. No optics. Floating little black speck smaller than a golf ball. Make it count.
  18. After I graduated from my venerable Benjamin 347 pump I picked up a Beeman R7 spring piston rifle at McBrides. The spring piston is superior in just about every way - noticeably because there's no pumping (#yourmom) or bleed off of compressed air over time. I toted that Beeman for the better part of a decade as a "yute" and killed everything Texas has to offer short of deer/pigs. Ducks, quail, rabbits, snakes, lizards, doves, skunks, turtles, frogs, etc. It was smooth and dependable and I never had any issues with the recoil at all. Now that you mention it, I can't remember any recoil issues at all? Maybe the new ones are different, but my dad still has it up in WA state to this day almost 40 years later to thwart the random squirrel/rabbit messing with his garden. Same gun. Zero mods. Four decades later. He's older, so cocking the barrel down is more of a chore, but he's also 80+.
  19. I'm still waiting on my flying car.... We'll see massive initial leaps in efficiency. Paper pushers. Compilers. Researchers. Analysts. Reporting. Forms and filings. All that shit becomes instantaneous. At the end of the day, you're either on the credit or debit side of the balance sheet. And for most that are on the debit side, what real value or savings is being realized by your work? For many it's substantial, but not all.
  20. Depending upon the velocities, they are every bit as accurate as a .22lr up to 100yds. Just get the ones < 1,000fps or physics comes into play (exceeding the sound barrier - noise, etc.)
  21. I'm old enough to remember the "internet" hysteria. It was going to end tens of millions of jobs. Conversely it created hundreds of millions over the decades. Altman is correct in that many jobs are duplicative and unnecessary. AI is going to end some of these. I'm sure there were thousands of farriers that were not super happy with the advent of the automobile. I remember as a kid the "Britannica" guy who sold us our first set. Overall, it's transformative process. Not outright elimination.
  22. It is when you have no other real football traditions.
