    So I spent over an hour with a Mach-E GT Performance today and it's a really solid car. Handling is bit better than the MY, but you lose the ground clearance and it still drives like an SUV/Crossover. After $10k of discounts, OTD price was $70K. So ~$17K more than an M3 LR with the $2K performance update (which beats the Mach-E 0-60 time). And the M3 has 70-80 miles more range. 

    In summary, fuck no, I'm not spending $17K more for less performance and (mostly) less features. 

    Unlike some of you neckbeard fucks, I'm out in the streets actually looking for a car that meets my needs, that's all that matters to me. It's really easy to spend someone else's money, so you can eat all the dicks in the world and I'll buy the car that I want.

  2. Even though Cruz and Cornyn are monsters, I'd at least understand why Texas Republicans would vote for them if they showed any signs of "manliness" or classic Texan personality or traits. 

    But these dipshits go out of their way to expose themselves as frauds.  Serious question for any people on here who vote for Cruz or Cornyn: have you no shame?

    Yeah, same situation. I think we've finally worked out the "moodiness" with the games. Used to be that if he was told no, he'd get a little attitude. If we told him to turn it off, we'd get some attitude/delay. That garbage was resolved relatively quick and only occasionally shows up. 

    Now I just want him to get to where he realizes that they are fun, but as mentioned above, they are junk food for the brain. Have some, sure, but learn to turn it off and understand it's not life.

    I'm not anti video game. I'm anti being obsessed with them. 

    Same age and situation as you and SydneyCarton. Unfortunately my kid's mother let's him play all the time, which makes it tough for me on the weeks I have him. I try to take my son to the park or outside as much as I can. He wants to go to the music store after school today and I'm very happy to get him something unrelated to video games.  He's obsessed with Zelda, but I get the sense he'll move on if we can find another activity that piques his interest. I think "obsession" with kids can be harnessed into something great as long as they have plenty of different things that make them curious and they want to learn more about. 

    Also looking forward to him eventually getting into watching sports. I feel like we're close age-wise. I leave ESPN or Rockets replay on in the morning when he's eating breakfast and he's starting to watch.

  4. I've felt like Wisner has flashed every time he's in the game, whether it's on ST or late game carries. Love the toughness he's shown, and I get the feeling he would excel with more touches. We are so deep at RB, but I really hope we find a way to get him the ball. If the transferred to a smaller school, I bet he'd light it up.  It seems like the coaches love him, whether it's Choice or Sark bringing him up.
