    This is abso-fucking-lutely going to happen - only question is whether Huffines gets a tweet out goading him to do it before Abbott pulls the trigger.

     

    If Abbott beats him to it, Huffines will tweet out that if he were governor he'd be offering prima nocta and 20k.

    Did Lincoln Riley have 11 items in the Express Lane, and them attempt to pay by check?  

    No.  He had 5 items in the only regular lane that was open.  He ended up splitting the total between a debit card and check.  He asked for cigarettes.  When the cashier finally came back, he got really mad and yelled, "I asked for soft pack!"  After he paid, he looked at the receipt and disputed the price of one of his items, "your sign said they were 2 for 1$.  You charged me $3.24 each!"

  3. I was in line behind Lincoln Riley at HEB yesterday.  For 10 minutes, he tried to convince the cashier that HEB should have those customer rewards cards.  He started pulling his cards from other stores out of his wallet and slapping them down on the counter. "Albertson's!  Kroger!  Carr's!  Ralph's!  Randall's!  CVS!  I'm sorry you're too stupid to understand this!"

  4. Kind of fucked up but here goes.  Donkeyseeds is the worst poster on this site.  We lost to Arkansas whose coach is a fat fucking r-word but he's not clearly not bulimic.  Kate's Secret was not that great a movie from what I remember but I was like 12.  Fozzz, you still suck.

    Yep. It's been that way since the third century. I'd say it started when men decided that women (who helped finance and support Christianity) could no longer hold leadership roles in the early church. 

    The core principles of Christianity are essentially incompatible with the dominant American cultural attributes. Building wealth, the lust for power, economic growth with no regard for the health of the planet, inequality. We're not a "Christian nation." America can be terrifying. 

    What do you think of this bathing suit incident?  Would you say that's rude behavior?

  6. I can't remember a boxing match since Fury, Wilder 2 that wasn't some youtuber vs a has been mma fighter.  Commentators are baked off their asses, rambling pure nonsense.  This weekend's main event features a 58 year old man stepping up on short notice.  The co-main event is two 46 year old mma fighters.  I thought that was rock bottom even for the sport of boxing that's been a joke for decades.  Now former President of the United States and soft punk insurrectionist Donald Trump and his loser son will be part of the broadcast.  All this on the 20th anniversary of 9/11.  We've plummeted straight past Idiocracy.

    So it is kind of funny that BYU is going to be the big “winner” in this. This move will instantly improve their strength of schedule and payout.

    They are pretty well locked in with Utah and USU and have played Boise every year since 2012.  If they add 4, then they are looking at probably 8 conference games (division and 1/2 other division rotating) plus those 3 plus a body bag game. That would be a hell of a deal for BYU.

     

    The more interesting part of this then, with those 4 what are the new divisions?

    I think most likely alignment is...

    North: Kansas, Kansas St, Iowa St, Cincinnati, BYU, West Virginia

    South: Texas Tech, Okie St, Baylor, TCU, UH, UCF

     

    What I'd like to see...

    Kansas, K St, Iowa St, West Virginia, Oklahoma St, Tech

    Baylor, TCU, BYU, UCF, Juggalo St, Cougar High

     

     

  8. I don't know if the bill was ever signed by the governor or if it got struck down by courts immediately, but the Louisiana legislature passed a law back in 1990 that lowered the penalty for beating a person that was desecrating an American flag to a $25 maximum fine.  It was never enacted.  This Texas abortion law reminds me of that but this is so much worse.  Flag burning was never really an issue that mattered to anyone.  It was just an attempt to make a culture wars wedge issue.  Our abortion law has far reaching effects and is the law today because the Supreme Court chose not to make a ruling.  Our law doesn't just minimize the penalty for interfering in the exercise of someone else's rights.  It rewards and encourages it.  Plus, that 1990 bill was passed by those Southern Comfort assholes we used to laugh at, the same people that almost elected David Duke.  This shit is the law in Texas.  It's amazing how far we've fallen.

    And as we've seen, that's done wonders for the lives and economic opportunities of their citizens.

    You need to control everything to do anything.  The GOP has figured that out. Dems still are stuck in some outdated idea that politics is a noble profession with principles.

    It hasn't magically changed things for the better but I imagine it's put the brakes on some crazy, right wing shit like our abortion law.  

     

    Some Trumpkin, both sider dumbshit wandered in to the CR the other day talking about the leftist agenda.  The American leftist agenda is pretty much dreaming of someday having universal healthcare like the rest of the developed world, maybe someday doing something about climate change, maybe someday raising the minimum wage (still $7.25 an hour!), and legalizing weed.  Otherwise, we play defense against insane Maga and Rebublican bullshit and try to slow our descent into hell.  Winning the occasional upset election in a red state helps things from getting worse but you're right that it won't do wonders if you don't control everything.

    Texas wins.  By a lot.  45-7,  Ulala will be preoccupied with weathering cat 4 hurricane along with worrying about friends and family.  Tough hand for them but it is what it is.

     

    if it’s close with that in mind. Hide your wives and your kids.

    I don't know.  They got hit by 3 hurricanes last year and were 10-1.  

  11. I'm expecting that Newsom will somehow flub the issue of the parole of Sirhan Sirhan thus triggering his recall and the installation of some right wing nut that gets less than 20% of the vote.  The simulation keeps chugging along.
