  1. ^^Posted multiple times in both this thread and the LOL thread.
  2. Roughly 12 years ago, when my wife and I were still just dating, we were on a long drive back home after spending the week at her family's timeshare in PCB. Somewhere in fucking Alabama, my wife says we should stop for lunch and try this BBQ place her family always stopped at on their drive back to Baton Rouge. We get there and the first thing I notice after stepping out of the car is the complete absence of the smell of smoke. The above would likely have been a vast improvement. Blandest, most laughable excuse for BBQ I've ever had the displeasure of eating. I swear to god, the sausage was just store-bought party links stewing in generic BBQ sauce in a crock pot. I've never been so angry at a meal in my life.
  3. i get by fine with a $25 rechargeable battery off Amazon. Goes 3+ months on a full charge.
  4. FYI, Academy has a bunch of cellular game cameras on sale this week. Would recommend this deal if you're in the market: 2-pack of Flex G-36 for $99. The SpyPoint app is easy to use and cheap (of free if you only want 100 pics/month). https://www.academy.com/p/spypoint-flex-g36-360-mp-cellular-game-cameras-2-pack
  5. A&D market has come back to life with several multi-billion$ deals announced in the past few days. EOG making a big bet in the Utica, buying Encino and 675K acres for $5.6B Viper (Diamondback's mineral-owning subsidiary) is buying Sitio Royalties for $4.1B.
  6. Final season release dates announced with a couple shots of teaser footage. 4 episodes the day before Thanksgiving. 3 episodes on Xmas Day. Finale on New Years Eve.
  7. Mariners have been outscored 13-1 in the 10th inning in the last 24 hours!!!
  8. Long time no post in this thread. Couple things I've been enjoying lately: New solo track from Fugitive. Sidenote: As a huge Power Trip fan, I wish they'd finally go ahead and decide what they're doing. Either be a new iteration of Power Trip, or move forward as Fugitive. Don't just release an occasional single as one band and play legacy shows as the other. Put out a goddamn album as one or the other! New single out from overdue upcoming album form Byzantine. Always have a hard time defining this band. Proggy technical metal-adjacent? Whatever they are, I dig it. Anyway, I love the intro riff and the bridge + solo at 3:17 is killer. And finally Urne, another proggy metal band I can't really describe. After I heard this song I had to dig deeper and most of their older stuff is pretty much just straight Helmet knock-offs. Then they hooked up with Joe Duplantier form Gojira to produce their most recent album and found a new gear.
  9. Anyone else feel like thus far this team is the Bizzarro World version of the '23 Astros? 2023: The worst good (on paper) team. Plus offense, mediocre pitching. Elite on the road, below mediocre at home. Extremely un-clutch. If it's late in the game and we don't already have a lead, we ain't winning. 2025: The best bad (on paper) team. Mediocre offense, plus pitching. Kings of Daikin Park, peasants on the road. Comebacks and walk-offs galore.
  10. Darryl Kile, 1993 no-hitter (almost PG) vs. NYM. 9 IP, 83 pitches, 1 BB, 0 H, 1 unearned run.
  11. Yainer just had the game of a Catcher's lifetime. 9 innings of your starter tying the franchise record for fewest pitches in a CG. Gun down the likely go-ahead run in the 9th with a laser throw to 3B, then come up in the bottom and hit a walk-off HR.
  12. Related. Stumbled upon this subreddit last night and kept myself up late chuckling my ass off at some of the comments: https://www.reddit.com/r/PizzaCrimes/ There are some monstrosities in here.
  13. Wrapped up the sale yesterday. Delivery tomorrow morning. Looking forward to tooling around the neighborhood this weekend once the weather clears up.
  14. It's becoming clear that all you have to do to get a pardon from Trump for white collar crime is toss his campaign some money, throw a MAGA hat on, and say that you were targeted by corrupt Democrats for being a big DJT supporter.
  15. Please name the more relevant factor to oil prices over the last 8 weeks than Trump.
  16. Deposit paid. Delivery sometime next week after they finish doing the full service tune-up and getting through the Memorial Day weekend glut of deliveries.
  17. They dropped the price $500 yesterday and confirmed it's only a $150 delivery fee. I'm heading up there on my lunch break to take a look in person. Decent chance I'm buying a golf cart today.
  18. It's absolutely disgusting outside. Neither "soupy" nor "swampy" successfully convey what Houston feels like this morning. This is some early August bullshit.
  19. Hey, we're 24-22 after 46 games. This time last year we were 20-26 and still had 5 weeks to go before reaching .500. Shit, we were still a month from bottoming out (33-40 and 10 games back on 6/18 before winning 9 of next 10).
  20. Nice W. Even better, I don't have to spend the rest of my Sunday afternoon pissed at dropping a series to the Rangers!
  21. 2-2 series split. Nobody goes home happy.
  22. Timely thread. I've been getting the itch as well and been keeping an eye out for what's available online the last few weeks. I want something I can drive around the neighborhood but also haul down to the beach or up to my deer lease, so definitely looking for something gas powered. Currently trying to figure out logistics of how I'm gonna store it and what size trailer I'll need. Looks like if I get a 2-seater (with fold down back seat convertible to cargo bed) I could get by with a 5 x 10 trailer. Have a decent size garage that only my wife parks in, so If i clear out a few things I think I'd have enough room to store the trailer in the garage and just park the cart on top of it. I found a just-barely-used 2022 model (less than 100 miles on the odometer) for sale at a dealership out in the burbs for a little under $5K. If they're willing to deliver, I'm getting pretty inclined to pull the trigger. I can worry about getting a trailer later. Only thing holding me back is the knowledge that while I'll likely enjoy it, I'm not naive enough to think it won't come with inevitable headaches.
  23. Waiting in line at Truth when it's 90+ and humid is no picnic.
  24. It took me a few episodes to really get into it. Really picks up towards the end of season 1 and then kicks into high gear for Season 2.
