  1. Well, it’s certainly changed location since the current head coaches office is in the Sourh Endzone.
  2. “I still want to see deadly accuracy down the field.” Oh, it’s so easy to just develop that, Quinn Ewers out front shoulda told him.
  3. The little girl? Some on this site would say so.
  4. I mean, the world didn’t end during the Great Depression, World War II, the Spanish flu, the dark ages, the black plague, ice ages or even extinction level events. But it sure as hell got unpleasant to live here for extended periods of time. Real unpleasant. I, for one, do not wish to live in interesting times, and there is a reason that is a Chinese curse.
  5. Why are you arguing with GRUHorn?
  6. Came to post this. Even with normal inflation and the rapid cost of living increases, I don’t think 100k is going to give you the retirement you want/need. And that’s before you throw in the possibility of elder care for yourself (and not your kids).
  7. I googled hongo and hard shell and found this Reddit thread. Looks different but maybe it’s a leftover root structure: https://www.reddit.com/r/lawncare/s/r4G8e1yjot
  8. Did a treee used to be around there?
  9. My guy basically laughed at the idea of the first oil change before 100 hours, fwiw.
  10. You know, if the government doesn’t go belly up between now and then. Or if they decide to honor the deal.
  11. Yeah, but he knew how to spin it! ”no one wouldn’t have thought she wasn’t 18. And look at what she was wearing?!?!?”
  12. You're assuming it stays at $60. You're also assuming that if it stays at $60 for an extended period of time, companies won't lay off people. Remember, companies exist to make a profit. Downturns always lead to layoffs. Here's a couple of articles talking about the issue in the past, as well as speculating about these tariffs. https://www.houstonchronicle.com/business/economy/article/oil-industry-tariffs-opec-decision-layoffs-20258213.php https://www.houstonchronicle.com/business/article/Houston-could-lose-thousands-of-jobs-if-oil-fails-15112330.php But that's the oil industry alone. If the Oil industry is just a fraction of the other industries that are going to struggle because of Tariffs, it's a safe assumption there will be a lot of layoffs in lots of industries. Almost like a domino effect. In my original post, I specifically said mass layoffs across multiple industries. Did you think just one thing caused the great depression? Actually I take that back it was basically one thing; tariffs.
  13. Well, unless they jack up the price to make up for the demand with the assumption that those who can pay still will pay. But that's really neither here nor there. The real issue is what happens to everyone, the economy, etc, if this behavior causes mass layoffs across multiple industries and hardship abounds, but you've got cheap as fuck gas, are you really getting ahead? What happened to the price of Oil during the great depression, when the inputs were cheap as fuck (13 cents a barrel, about $5 and a half bucks in today's dollars) and demand was low? Spoiler alert, it was not great. But you're right, technically the gas WAS cheap. So if you don't mind the cost of everything else going apeshit and people being miserable, well, ok I guess?
  14. This isn't a serious post, is it?
  15. Haven't looked at the market since yesterday's close, eh?
  16. 84% retaliatory tariffs by China seems like no biggie, right?
  17. I call this work Dread Harbinger Of A Shitty Day:
  18. To be fair, you also drove a 14 ft RV through a 12 ft clearance underpass and sheared the roof clean off. Let’s say your prognostication is a mixed bag.
  19. Nahlin owns a piece of IT. Liucci probably gets a cut too. But he’s not Geoff Ketchum. He’s Taylor Estes with bigger tits.
  20. Don't forget that Liucci doesn't own Texags. He's a paid employee. He's not even the CEO. It's owned, nominally, by Hunter Goodwin. The CEO is someone named Brandon Jones (not that Brandon Jones, duh, this one is obviously white). https://texags.com/staff While he apparently bought his mom a home in sugarland, there is a reason he lives in a house like this in College Station: Although, to be fair, that might actually be a College Station 8. Fuck if I know.
  21. Guess GRUHorn had to get a new handle.
