  1. They are, it’s just they’re also petty and vengeful which is why they’re voting for Trump.
  2. Just saw CNN saying Biden is having trouble in Michigan polls. (Don’t know if true) But it was astounding hearing them list of the things Biden has done for Michigan (unions, jobs, infrastructure) as opposed to Trump who accomplished jack and shit, yet they were supposedly leaning towards Trump. Leopard Eating Faces party indeed.
  3. We finally got some snow on Friday. Got down to 5 yesterday. But already climbing back up into 30s hope we get more snow
  4. Americans need to learn how to negotiate realtor fees (and everything else)
  5. America is not for sale? Bitch, you’re wearing discount Nazi costumes, everything is for sale.
  6. What’s the point in banning if they can just keep making new handles?
  7. Who’s the anti-vax sock? A couple pop up every now and again
  8. You ain’t lying. I talk to people moving from Florida all time. The HOI premiums make mortgages unaffordable
  9. No I am not saying it’s not possible to learn anything from the numbers. The exact opposite actually. Listen, I understand putting certain people on the cover absolutely alienated their core audience. It’s not rocket science. The majority of their readers are white Christian males and want to see white Christian women. I’m just positing that the overall trend of magazines going out of business (due to macro forces) had a more substantive effect than any decline due to “provocative” editions. I just find it strange people want to attribute it to a niche reason when the entire industry is facing similar fates.
  10. Is there publicly available sales data? I am sure there won’t be declining sales since 2000 with the explosion of internet, since 2010 since iPhone exploded, since 2012 when iPads became huge, and since 2016 since Tik Tok had every girl doing bikini dances for clicks. Totally the big girl’s fault
  11. Old Austin thrived in 60s/70s/80s. The last decade was in the 90s Old Austin died in 2000s 2010-2020 was the birth of New Austin
  12. Here are the rankings by average rating as opposed to 247 Carb Load Style
  13. This is the most poignant point made thus far. It is an issue, and most likely the underlying reason for any pushback. I am extremely guilty of this and need to do a better job. The genesis of this phenomenon, at least in my understanding, is that certain people have revealed themselves to be complete monsters, specifically towards treating others as human beings or showing any sense of compassion. It’s not just disheartening, it’s depressing. This isn’t just a message board thing either. This phenomenon affects every aspect of real life. Therefore, any previous or normal level of civility or benefit of the doubt given has been exhausted due to repeated displays of horribleness. There was a certain shared baseline of commonality, and it’s been revealed to not exist at certain levels. People are exhausted.
  14. Or maybe it’s 2023 and no one reads magazines
  15. They have 4 years until the judicial branch is terminated
  16. Logic: He plays a lot of golf. It’s most likely golf grip blisters Trump media: it’s from paper cuts
  17. From the other thread about declining revenue and/or increasing users. It seems like there is a profitability issue. There was discussion of the “CR echo chamber” as to why this place isn’t more profitable. I remember a link to an SEC rant page discussing as much. A known poster using a sock handle with 4 posts championed that narrative. Might have been Rex or GRHorn. Who knows. I believe this is at least part of the concern The political boards on SEC rant and Texags are pure qAnon garbage bins. Therein lies the rub. Is it possible the majority of college football message boards skew that way? I wouldn’t be surprised.
  18. Yup. We’ve talked about this before offline but not only was the below true, it felt like it
  19. I think the market is an emotional overreacting bitch
