  1. I had my daughter submit an app there as a backup and she got that 90% tuition discount. It takes tuition down from $27,728 to $9,958/year.  It's cheaper than any in state Texas schools.

    goddamnit, now I’m gonna have to take the piggies into consideration for our oldest. Can’t ignore those numbers, but grandpappy would be rolling over in his grave…

  2. Maybe, maybe not. She was being a bitch. It fucking pissed me off. People doing shit like this without being called out is why they keep doing it. It was so fucking brazen, with total disregard for every other human. Fuck her.

    good to know I’m not the only one with that approach “if I don’t tell them, no one will and they’ll keep acting like assholes”. My wife does not support it though.

  3. I learned something this year. I was not aware of. if I’m not in the mood to drink warm michelob ultra cans, I can leave the game and re-enter with wax cup beers. Or maybe I got lucky at my gate. I also had some good vibes going so that may have helped too..

  4. agreed.  part of that is their schtick from early days(the teen punk dgaf banter) but I really think they mainly do it now for delonge.  dude was out of breath after songs a lot.  getting old sucks.

    isn’t the other guy the one who is a cancer survivor? maybe the breaks are for him as well or delonge just needs to hit the peloton about a month before going on tour.

  5. bumped b/c this was the closest I could find.  I'm sure someone here has dealt with going from a smart watch to cell phone for one of their kids. Mine has an apple watch with verizon and we want to "upgrade" to a phone now.  Verizon is telling me we can't convert a "watch line" to a "phone line" but have to add a new line and wouldn't be able to keep the old phone number from the watch and it would have to be a new phone number with the phone line.  That makes no sense as I know others do this with their teenagers going to iphones from apple watches.  I'd like to avoid the back door/pain in the ass route with porting out the number to another carrier and then porting back in.  I think I was probably talking to someone in customer service that didn't have a clue...let me know if anyone has done this, thanks in advance.

    If you had people getting in your face there, you definitely don't want to go to Columbus. Most of the adults I encountered both around AA on Friday at restaurants etc and at the stadium were cool and hospitable.  Mainly just heard a lot of Go Blue and I'd just smile and say not today or we'll see or something.  Students were dumb but harmless.  My standard reply to drunk students is "Yeah, I remember my first beer" which usually shuts them up. No disrespect or anything but are you a small fella? If anyone talked shit and got that close to my wife the temperature would sure change quickly 

    Yeah, I saw similar stuff as CTJ but the MI fans were puppy dogs compared to the shitbags in Columbus.  But you hit the nail on the head from what I've seen with shit talkers at any road game, they won't do it if you're over 6' or a big fella and/or in a group.  Those type of fans only get fake tough when guys are solo or just with their lady.  Not really shocking human behavior if you think about it.

  7. Are you talking Friday evening? 
    Or early Saturday morning, with the implication the tailgate lot won't be open yet?
    If Friday evening, I'd suggest anywhere outdoors and downtown, because it's central. If you're a craft beer guy, I suggest the Grotto, since there's a lot of outdoor seating near the sidewalk and people could just swoop through and grab their wristbands without having to buy anything. Alternatively, and probably better, downtown Ann Arbor will be pedestrianized and go-cups are allowed in a designated downtown area. You could post up with a couple chairs and a table on the corner of Main and Liberty or something like that and just chill with some go-cups from Pretzel Bell or one of the other bars that participates in the go-cup program.
    Kicking myself for not mentioning this before, but if you don't have the beer situation figured out, an old baseball buddy of mine owns the Blue Front, about a block and a half from your location. PM me if you want a connection there.

    what’s the to go cup program? can I use my own to go cup and just pour a beer in it? Most people I’ve talked to in AA said cops don’t really enforce open container on cans if you have a coozie and don’t act like a jackass. if that’s an inaccurate, let us know.

    I waited too long to grab a tailgate ticket, are there any bars near the stadium that you’d recommend that has good beer options and we can leave with said beer?

    Why hasn't the neighborhood escalated the shit out of things for this guy yet? 

    Set his fucking truck on fire or something. Sounds like there's a long list of suspects, so even if they have detectives working in shifts, it will likely never be solved... 

    They're too busy waving at people to slow down over the goddamn speed bumps...impressive though if this person has survived the Karens from NextDoor.  I've never seen this truck but sounds like a tesla should brake check him to see how it goes. I have seen plenty of teenagers though driving worse in brand new trucks/jeeps/SUVs.
