Alec Baldwin Shoots and Kills Cinematographer, Wounds Director
Damn, I didn't even try to monetize this. I'm leaving money on the table! Seriously, I was texted that pic and had no idea it was fake. Life goes on.

Nobody will even get in, Bob Stoops will bar the door from the inside.

population decline
This makes sense to me, as most teachers are female. I don't think it's some kind of conspiracy, I just think it's natural for women to structure things in a manner that appeals to, or would benefit other females.

Wash St. Covid thread of despair and anti-vax bannination
I remember getting all kinds of shots in boot camp. They didn't ask any questions, just ushered us through a curtain and 2 Filipina corpsman (corpswomen?) attacked from both sides with pneumatic needle guns. Got a shot in the ass, to boot. Wandered back outside with a sore ass cheek, blood dripping from both shoulders.

Getting old sucks
My mom and grandmother would write each other all the time, as my dad was career military and we were never close enough to visit. One day, I came home to find my mother crying. I was a self-absorbed teen and didn't say anything. I asked my dad later and he said my mom got a letter from my grandmother, telling her that the Alzheimer's had gotten to the point where she could no longer write, so this was her last letter. I can't imagine how that must've felt.

Effing jury duty
I got selected when I was 18 or 19, medical malpractice lawsuit. This lady claimed that she had been rendered sterile due to faulty care from this doctor. I got booted because both of my parents had or did work in the medical field. I've never been called again and I doubt I will, having worked in law enforcement and now working for the state. I know it's changed now but I remember the jury duty pay in Oklahoma back then (1992) was $6 a day. I missed three days of work to "earn" $18. I used most of that to pay for parking.

Celebrity Death Pool - 2021
It's funny, I think about that a lot but...I also enjoy sitting on my ass and not doing anything to fend that off. One day, something's gotta give. You seem to have really enjoyed your dealings with Gen. Powell. He seemed like a genuinely good guy. I'm sorry for your loss, seriously.

Celebrity Death Pool - 2021
Pull your thong out of your ass, I wasn't attacking you. As a tall/big guy (6'6" 275), I think about shit like this and I was curious what you meant and I think I was on the same wavelength.

Celebrity Death Pool - 2021
Curious what you mean by this. His height/weight ratio? I didn't think he was an absurdly big guy, but I honestly don't know.

Stop being such fucking pussies
I'm 48 years old and Texas has one title in my lifetime. So you're right, I won't be expecting it.

Who could we realistically hire tomorrow if Sark was hypothetically fired?
Didn't play Texas, didn't play ou, didn't win his division. He got lucky as hell with the schedule that year.

Where I live, your shelter gets recorded at the city so they'll know to come looking for your ass after a tornado wipes out your neighborhood. Maybe that's just an Oklahoma thing but it makes too much sense for it to only happen here. This place ain't exactly on the cutting edge.

Gabby Petito case - Dude comes back from couple's cross-country road trip; she's missing, he's silent
I agree and I don't want to come across like I'd just cover up my kids' crimes in the same manner that I'd just take out my own garbage. If this was my son, I'd probably be in the hospital right now. You just never know how much anyone can take when it comes to a crisis. Maybe these parents are raging assholes that should be shunned from society. Maybe they're just so worried about their kid that they have to keep busy and working in the yard helps them stay sane. I don't know.

Not sure if you have grown children but eventually, you have to emotionally disconnect just a tad. At least, I do. If I let myself dwell on some of the stupid decisions my kids make that I cannot control, I'll have an ulcer or heart attack in no time. I had a panic attack once, no desire to go down that road again. And no, that doesn't mean I'm down to cover up murders with my kids but we don't know what kind of an asshole this guy has been to his folks over the years, or what kind of bullshit he's put his parents through. Maybe they've quietly reached their breaking point and gardening is what's keeping them sane.

Car for kid
My twins got a 2001 Honda Accord (wife's old car she bought in 2002) and a 2012 Ford Fusion (uncle died, my dad bought it and gave it to the kid). The Honda died last year, I replaced it with a 2017 Hyundai Elantra, $9500. Fuck buying my kids a new car.

Well, bye, Jon Gruden
The problem with this is that the average football fan (like myself) doesn't give a flying fuck about that shit. I watch football to relax on the weekends. If I want to worry about shit like this, I can just go to work. I don't care what millionaire dipshits email to each other.

Texas opens as a 6 point favorite v Oklahoma State
I'm pretty confident that won't happen on saturday.

Shit's Borked
I switched to the IPS light and the blue color is very off-putting. Plus the forum headers at the top and bottom are gone, I have to go back to the home page to switch forums.

Texas opens as a 6 point favorite v Oklahoma State
Spencer Sanders just isn't any good. I'd take the under and think UT wins by 7-10. Our defense is really good but I think they'll get worn out because Sanders will turn it over 2-3 times at least. The only way we pull out a win is if the defense gets a score or 2 IMO.

Wives and the Stupid Shit They Say/Do
When we did the registry thing, I told my wife it was pointless because nobody would get us anything we actually needed/wanted. We were both adults (her 29, me 35) and we didn't need towels, dishes, etc., as we already had that shit. She disagreed, so I purposely put shit on the list for me that I knew we wouldn't get, just to prove a point. I put a big TV, a playstation 3, any big electronic item. We got...towels, dishes, etc. I'd say 90% got returned for store credit. Just give cash, people.

The joke's on them, I don't care about missing white folk either.
