    I'm not saying it's funny, I'm saying the way surly in particular can and has framed stuff that is serious in the past is with a lot of irreverence with an underlying tone of seriousness and gravity that isn't lost on the posters. 

    I've been using the internet since 1989 when my folks got compuserve. I've been on the internet way, way longer than you. I've been on all sorts of boards, I quite literally grew up alongside chan culture and all that shit, when stuff like something awful was the nexus of the internet and fark was actually a thing. The default mode of the internet for 30 fucking years has been aggressive irreverence, "being serious sucks," whyucare bullshit. Perhaps, get this, we're fucking tired of that shit that you seem to still find so funny? Perhaps, just perhaps, it's not outrage culture that has lead us to where we are, but rather this worship on "funny above all else"? Because, honestly, what you find funny isn't. The vast amount of humor on this site is cringe-ass 40 year old tough guy bullshit.

    And the escalation of fuckery and punishment of students for speaking the wrong speech continues

    https://www.kut.org/education/2024-04-26/ut-austin-says-arrested-protesters-including-students-will-not-be-allowed-on-campus

    Protesters arrested for trespassing at UT Austin this week will not be allowed back on campus despite charges against them being dropped, a university spokesperson confirmed Friday.

    The spokesperson did not respond to questions about how this could impact students who have final exams and plan to graduate in a couple weeks. A spokesperson told KUT the Office of the Dean of Students determines penalties for students, including how long a ban is in place.

    Fifty-seven people were arrested Wednesday during pro-Palestinian protests on the university campus. UT Austin said roughly half of those arrested were students.

    That includes Jumana Fakhreddine, a senior and pre-med student. The 22-year-old said she was arrested Wednesday afternoon, about 10 minutes after joining the protests. Fakhreddine said four to five officers lifted her off her feet and put her in zip-tie handcuffs.

    The charges against her were dropped and she was released from jail just after midnight Thursday. She said since her release, no one from UT Austin has contacted her. She found she was not welcome on campus through a flyer circulated by the university.

    “We thought that because the charges got dropped, we would be able to go to campus because we felt like that proved we didn’t do anything wrong,” she said. “But I guess that’s not true.”

    UT Austin warned students before the protest that they could be disciplined for participating.

    Fakhreddine said she's not sure if she'll be able to take her organic chemistry final on campus next week. She doesn’t need the class to graduate, she said, but does need it to apply to medical school.

    “Initially I was angry about the whole thing, but I’m sad about how an educational institution is treating its students,” Fakhreddine said. “It just feels like such a betrayal.”

    If I were her, I'd lawyer up, the university is fucking up her future.

    I knew this chick in grad school who was Edging-worthy.   Oh wait, did you say edge-Lordy?   What the hell does that Even mean?  Is that a like a Cleveland steamer?

    An edge lord is someone who is offensively cringe as fuck but thinks they're blowing minds. An edge lors is basically the default of a 4chan protestor. Edge-lord examples would be doing stuff like "ironically" wearing blackface or doing a nazi salute.

    in a nutshell:

    and the NCAA will recognize the Trojan title in 2004

    Uh, why? The NCAA has quite literally never recognized any title prior to the playoff era. The NCAA never awarded nor recognized the title, the BCS did, which the NCAA had absolutely fuck-all to do with. Prior to the playoff era, post season games were exhibition in nature. The NCAA only recognizes conference championships, not BCS national championships. This is the whole "M" in the "MNC" thing.

    Meanwhile, I'm going to finally beat NES Top Gun.

    the trick is to ignore the "up up down down" shit on the landing screen. All you have to do to land in top gun is line up your alt and speed gauge on the left with the target alt and speed written on the screen. The "instructions" telling you how to land are random and don't correspond to anything. Once you realize that, the game is a complete breeze.

  6. I can't remember a time when the media fawned all over a Texas QB like Arch. Obviously VY and Colt were amazing QBs worthy of praise, but national media has never been one to drool over Texas. When VY was here, it was all about Matt Leinart and Jason White and so forth. Shit, Colt beat Sam Bradford head to head several times and yet the media dick rode him and tebow and so forth over Colt. Whenever in the past media outlets have talked about Texas QBs, it's always been begrudging praise over the unavoidable level of play they exude.

    But with Arch, you have everyone from NCAA to NFL drooling all over him. To say nothing about his actual tenure at Texas, it's safe to say Arch is likely the most hyped Longhorn of all time.

    he’s not as tall as vince and you don’t really need to be comparing him to vince in any way, frankly.  eat a dick, dipshit. 

    Vince young was 6 foot 5, Arch is 6 foot 4, you terminally online loser. You do know what "basically" means, right? Like when I say you're basically a eunich, I do not mean you quite literally have no dick, but rather that your tiny dick is similar to that of a dickless person.

    Hope this helps. Go blog about it for hours or whatever the fuck you do to rack up those tens of thousands of virgin points you got.

    Is that an artist’s rendering of what they wish was the attendance?

    looks more like a fucked up AI generated image that comes from a GPT with shitty training data when you ask it to render a football stadium for you, but that's just the actual IRL architecture of pyle field.

  9. This image from today's scrimmage made me realize how much Arch's body has filed out. Of course that pic of him and ewers and maalik flexing went viral last year, but this is the first time I'm noticing how tall Arch is. He's basically Vince Young's height, and VY's height let him gallop through tackles.

    And it didn't disappoint 

    Easily the most entertaining spring game I've ever seen. I've never seen a spring game come down to the final snap like that before.

    I hate to break this you, but it’s going to be pretty hard for us to win the Big 12 this year.  

    Those aren't Big 12 championships, they're conference championships, unless you think we won the Big 12 in 1942, 1943, 1945, 1950, etc.

    You missed the joys of “duck and cover” in elementary school as well as everybody watching and talking about The Day After (which is on YouTube I believe). 

    We have friends whose families emigrated from the Soviet Union at the end when they were allowed to, and they’ve talked about Chernobyl being extremely accurate about how things were and how they worked.

    I actually saw The Day After when the Berlin Wall fell. It's fall made my parents go back and watch a lot of cold war movies, and they were never shy about showing me stuff that was intense (I saw Robocop in theaters when I was like 4 lol). That movie is probably what made the soviets stay in my mind as this awesome (in a literal sense), terrifying force. They always fascinated me, in the same way a caged shark does.

    Speaking of aggy … wonder what propaganda they’ll spew about Arch’s performance today?

    aggy are the most projecting losers on the planet, so they'll probably just say that he'll transfer to oklahoma or something like their highly rated qbs do. Whenever they look for faults in UT, all they see is their own.
