  1. Believe it or not, there was a time when it was fairly common for people outside of the state to ask "Texas Aggies?" when they met a UT grad. It seemed to gain the most traction during and shortly after the Jackie Sherrill years. And, the football teams in "Best Little Whorehouse In Texas" (1978) are the "Texas Aggies" and the "Longhorns".
  2. It was much more difficult to build that kind of cult of personality in the early to mid-80s. There was essentially no social media, and people had 2 maybe 3 choices (Republican, Democrat, independent). They also tended to be much more private in their political discussions. (OK, there were the initial tendrils of Usenet but outside of academic dorks like me the vast majority of people knew nothing about that.)
  3. Do you remember the brouhaha over The Eyes of Texas?
  4. I'm on BCBSTX, fill me in. What's the "ERS version"? I'm definitely needing a boost (ahem).
  5. Jesus Christ.
  6. He should have peppered in some "smooth-brained", right?
  7. A former HS friend who is now an elected official posted this on Facebook. She definitely thinks she's a badass, but beyond that this reeks of indoctrination. The weird thing is, she's very close with her sister who is a lesbian professor of architecture and who somehow didn't get infected with any political virus other than the kind, compassionate progressive bug. I have no idea how they still talk.
  8. Dammit, I never get invited to the cool kids clubs.
  9. I only learned maybe the day before. I wasn't going to go but decided to cut out from the office early enough to get there. It wasn't as rowdy as their first in-store at the old location, and the whole thing was a little low key. Not bad, but you didn't miss much.
  10. lolwut? It ain't your website. Are you confusing this with some sort of First Amendment issue?
  11. Do you have even the slightest knowledge of how broken your own brain is? God damn, dude. Go get some help.
  12. He never said a fucking word, but Antifa!
  13. Reminds me of when my daughter favored UMinn over all her other choices. Great school, no problem with that, but holy shit darling you were born and raised in Austin. Might want to rethink that. "But I went to Chicago for 3 days in December and it wasn't that bad?" Uh, yeah get back to me after spending 6 months 300 miles north of Chicagol
  14. God damn you are one stupid motherfucker. ANTIFA! Drink! Idiot.
  15. So . . . regarding the shooter . . . is it clear that the guy they hauled off WASN'T the shooter, but (perhaps) an acquaintance?
  16. Well, it's not prudent to go 0-100 mph in 3 sec on the United States. Karl Rove and his buddies had a plan, they put that plan in place, and it eventually worked out.
  17. I'd get that 34 long sleeve T but people would absolutely laugh at me (more than usual).
  18. Scott Jennings is saying this nation is in desparate need for prayer. Hey Scott, you are a huge part of the problem you fucking nazi traitor.
  19. @immamac are you going to issue vacations as promised?
  20. So, a simple DT download from this website? Cool, ask a mod.
  21. Well, it didn't "pop the fuck off" when Trump got "shot". It didn't "pop the fuck off" when a Minnesota politician and her husband were murdered. What exactly makes you so confident? THIS is the trigger event?
  22. Maybe now we can rip the Band-Aid off the "DT isn't a political space"? No? I'm shocked.
  23. I quite literally laughed. Fuck you.
  24. Imagine life in prison or even the death penalty for murdering Charlie Fucking Kirk.
