    If I were a better troll, I'd call the 800 number and see if "that big food bucket was safe for me because of my dibeedus"

    We need that dude that used to call into Aggieline or whatever they call the post-game show on the Fightin' Texum Bullfrog radio network to get up on this.

    Stiggy could give him a script and shit.

    AMZN''s real advantage is they trade like a tech company while the rest of the competition is forced to trade like a traditional retailer.  If any of them suspended their dividend and announced all future profits would be devoted to investments in the business, their stock would crash in a spectacular bloodbath. 

    Yeah, but if any of them suspended their cash dividend and instead announce they are seeking to raise a few hundred million through a pre-sale of initial coin offerings to "strategic purchasers" via their revolutionary proprietary blockchain tangible asset system, then their stock price will shoot to the fucking moon.

    Suck it AMZN!!#@#@!!!!!

    Sounds like something Best Buy could cure with 20% coupons.  Really though, if they want to compete, they need free delivery, but there's no way they can provide that at a profit.  It isn't enough to match purchase price on large electronics and appliances when Amazon will have it at your door at no extra charge.

    Amazon will not have it at your door for no extra charge.  At best you are paying a $100 Amazon Prime membership fee for that service.

    Now if you are one of those kind that never wants to leave your house and gets Amazon packages delivered 4x per day then this is a good deal.  If not, then it may not be such a great deal depending on how many times you order stuff from Best Buy that has to be delivered.

    last holiday season I did all of my Black Friday shopping online. Got everything I wanted with no black eyes or bullet holes.  

    I have done all my Christmas shopping online for the last four years except for my mom's present.  I live out of the country and only get back at Christmas so the strategery is to buy the gifts for everyone else online, send them to my mom's house and she wraps them because she loves that shit.  Before we get back to Houston I find out from my dad what mom wants and I figure out where to get it.  One trip to a store and gift wrapping station during maniac season is enough for me.

    The eyes of Texas are upon you
    The eyes of Texas are upon you
    All the live long days
    The eyes of Texas are upon you
    And you cannot get away

    Do not think you can escape them
    From night till early in the morn
    The eyes of Texas are upon you
    Till Gabriel blows his horn

     

    Somebody please highlight the racist parts for me.

    (Is there a verse I'm not aware of)
     

    Pretty sure it was written by a white guy.

    Got it, you fucking racist sympathizer? :P

    You can open a second window for audio and mute the video window.  Which works great for a half inning, after which the video audio turns itself up at each commercial break and coming back from each break.  So stupid.

    Perhaps that can be worked around by opening the radio side on a separate device, but I haven't cared enough to try that.  

    Thanks, but won’t work throug a Roku.  I just wish they would leave stuff well enough alone.  If it ain’t broke, don’t fuck with it.

    Linn formally announces they're  re-forming as a much smaller, leaner company, Riviera Resources.

    Letting go of pretty much all of their existing executives and handing over the reins to a new group.

    Turns out leading a billion dollar company into Ch. 11 can pay handsomely. Outgoing CEO will walk away with $60M.

    I could do it for $30MM.
