  1. a ribeye and 2-3 pours at Saint Arnold are a great way to celebrate 2MAR36. Did that a few times when we still lived in Houston area. I moved here when I was 6. Owned being a Texan bigtime in the military, because once people find out, they gotta bring it up. It happens to lesser extent in corporate culture. I like being a Texan. I like steak and beer. I appreciate our history, even if it is not perfect. I wish certain things were pointed in a different direction, as of late.
  2. Zero % clastrophobic. Can smell cigarette smoke from someone in a parked car like 5-6 cars down or around the corner at a building. Not ranting against smokes, but because of this sense of smell, it's a dire affliction for me when people don't fucking bathe. That shit is infinitely worse than close spaces. I want to heave and then do whatever I have to do to get away from it. Airplanes are pure torture sometimes. It's beyond me how people know they are getting onto a (public) plane and can't wash their filthy ass. Same goes for out at stores or whatever. People will walk by just reeking, and I'm like, "What the fuck is wrong with you that you don't care for others enough to take a fucking bath?" It's gross. It's everywhere...and I'm not germophobe dude. I just don't want to smell it.
  3. Re: the KU racial remarks I've seen this discussion on 2 other non-KU and non-Tech boards today, not counting surly. People are wanting to expose the posters and are done with this shit. "Let's make them famous" is one remark, with which i agree.
  4. At Burbank, you still board the plane forward and aft, as in, no jetways, just stairs.. I stroll to the rear of the plane as I typically have exit row 16/ 17. Fuck all of that shit up front with, "Would you like a fucking Mimosa while all of these folks are trying to board?" It eliminates the entitled bullshit, as well.
  5. Saquon played on a team of scrubs in NJ. Deebo was the 3rd weapon on offense, if that.
  6. That's where I'm at. I don't plan travel around lounge time or whatever. I view it more as an insurance policy for a shitty travel day. My layovers at DFW are typically 75 minutes or less, when I can; but then life happens sometimes.
  7. Check on his dog...
  8. Dumb question amnesty, and I am asking this as someone who deliberately schedules relatively tight layovers through DFW, which occur for any flight I take. Lounges are not a priority for me at all, but if I got in a bind, I'd like to know this: On One World Emerald status, it lists "Business and First Class Lounge ACCESS" as a benefit. Does that mean access to the lounge with credentials or the ability to pay a fee to gain access?
  9. Holy shit this game at The Shoe... DGAF about either team. Fun hockey though...
  10. That's just straight up bullshit. I bitch about Phog Magic and the like, but those guys competed their asses off. The only shitbags in the equation are the fuckers using racial slurs and hiding behind their keyboards. Gotdam those are young men who represented their U in the best way. Fuck the shit talkers.
  11. Morgan Freeman to do the honors for Hackman at the Oscars. Greatness befitting greatness.
  12. Slimey as fuck. Will never cheer for Patino.
  13. Living and dying by the 3 is frustrating. 2nd half scoring was frustrating. That game illustrated what happens without Toppin or even Federico on the defensive end( 4 fouls.) Hated the waved off double-dribble on KU and the stiff. Couldn't believe the anti-phog call on the in-bound foul Fuck Kansas.
  14. Kansas with Hardin shot and flop on every play. Zebras eating it up. Gawd I hate games at Kansas. Just fuck the stupid ass calls. Constant bailouts
  15. Palestinians uprising is justified.
  16. Coach bags are ok. Couch? Not so much...
  17. That looks dumb as hell. So do the cutoff football shorts in game play. IDGAF what they wear in practice. Queue AI...
  18. In some cases, yes. Not across the board. It varies, especially where oil is involved.
  19. Edward "Brill" Lyle
  20. Watched Ep 1 last night, fully thinking what you posit in your post. It pretty much sucks so far. There was no way I could watch another Ep after the first one( in one sitting.) It was plodding and even boring at times.
  21. Inadequacy sells...or buys.
  22. I almost feel like any debate over the allocation of raises is almost trivial in comparison with the bigger funding/ voucher issues. I keep getting the feeling we're getting vouchers, regardless of what actually makes sense. It's idiotic, but gotdam there are folks in love with it.
  23. It is more expensive, but the supply of young teachers is also exponentially higher. That being said, I'd be more likely to support the same raise across the board. If we're giving raises, do it the same for the same situations/ experience, regardless of locale.
  24. It is hard as hell to draw teachers in the rural areas. Not sure why that seems nefarious. Yeah, don't trust anything, but do you know anyone in rural districts? They have to pay more already just to compete. and it's not a straight up racial thing either. many rural schools are non- white majority students in Texas.
