  1. My wife is a teacher at WISD that was far from the China Spring area but they still had to shelter in place when the sirens went off and she had kids telling her, "If I die tell my parents that I loved them." Kids today are so much more aware of their mortality than I was as a 2nd grader.
  2. I think almost all of Waco Surly lives in the suburbs of the south side, but this storm seems like it had a long track. Also from the airport
  3. Really? I think we're doing just fine. Sure, some people have different opinions on controversial topics but that's always been a thing.
  4. The TimesMachine is one of America's best historical databases as a newspaper of record for over 150 years and is a valuable research tool (seriously follow James Garfield's story from being shot until his death sometime). Being a newspaper of record in the US means that it would absolutely show the commonly accepted exceptionalism that was prevalent in the country for most of that time. An endorsement of MAGA is about the the only thing that would make me cancel. Plus Cooking and The Book Review are unmatched in our digital age.
  5. Maybe they'll kick us out of "the South" and they can put Oklahoma in our place.
  6. What was even the point of going to law school if you're not going to pretend you know everything there is to know about ConLaw on a messageboard? Seems like a waste of money to me.
  7. I hate how nobody has watched Severance. It's one of those shows you want to talk about with everyone, but you get a "huh, never heard of it" more often than you get someone who has seen it.
  8. Sweet, now we'll all be hoping for 4hr delays on non-connecting travel home days.
  9. Are we familiar enough with Oklahoma to just call this Yukon and not Yukon, OK? I was imagining some sort of frozen poop stick murder.

    Mexican

    Deckhand brings the flavor.
  11. I tech-nically have a job, if that counts.
  12. Jesus, and I complain about the normal one hour with six people. I can't imagine a 6-hour interview, that sounds exhausting and really boring as you repeat the same damn answer 6 times in a day.
  13. Juror 2 gets their news from Truth Social and X? https://www.nytimes.com/2024/04/19/nyregion/trump-trial-jury-news.html
  14. According to Lawrence Wright, the loose women of Greeley, Colorado are responsible for the founding of Al-Queda so he should probably be on the lookout for that.
  15. He's no Karl Pilkington or Michael Palin, but he's good enough for us.
  16. That's what clickbait has to be. I love me some CDA but yeah it's probably going to be a 3-9 or 4-8 season if I had to guess and there's no way he survives that again.
  17. $8m for some IG sluts shows that the modern military understands society better than when they sent over Bob Hope to entertain the troops.
  18. We always load up on 3 lbs of the pollo rojo for every 1lb of the fajita for cost purposes when doing a carne asada. Those chicken breasts are so easy to get right and are really a pretty good bargain $ wise.
  19. Frustrating game, but the worst part was hearing the coach say we had to change tactics because if we played our normal way then a team that is 1-5-1 on the year would blow us out of the water.
