Toby Keith RIP
It's real to me And I think the last time I looked it up, he said he didn't remember it being so harsh but that his wife did, or something like that.

NBA 2023-24
Curry with 60 last night in a losing effort, on 58/43/100 splits. Only 6 free throws. The Warriors stink, but that dude is something else.

Pack your Yeti gear, wear your Oakleys, and leave the Budweiser product at home, and you should be fine.- 2024 Oscar Nominees
My top ten for 2023 was: 1. KOTFM 2. Past Lives 3. The Zone of Interest 4. Oppenheimer 5. Anatomy of a Fall 6. Passages 7. The Killer 8. When Evil Lurks* 9. May December 10. A Fire Of the remaining Best Pic noms, my order would probably be Poor Things, Maestro, Barbie, and The Holdovers. Have not seen American Fiction yet. *As an aside, what a mediocre year for horror, as I usually have more than 1 in my top 10. Talk to Me, No One Will Save You and Skinamarink were in my Top 30, and Sick, Huersa, Birth/Rebirth, Perpetrator and Cobweb were all ok. Scream was fine. I thought Evil Dead Rise sucked, but maybe I'm just tired of the plot.- Elon Musk: Nazi traitor piece of shit [Confirmed]
One thing is for sure, this case is going to make a shit ton of money for law firms (thanks!), because this ruling is red fucking meat for the plaintiff’s bar.- Elon Musk: Nazi traitor piece of shit [Confirmed]
I only know what the opinion said (one example is below, which is projection-related (not accounting related)).- Elon Musk: Nazi traitor piece of shit [Confirmed]
You've said this a few times, but it isn't really true (or at least not entirely true). Certainly the shareholders thought this to be the case, because that is what they were told in the proxy. And I'm just guessing the street thought so as well, although I certainly haven't kept up with that. But, management's own internal projections showed multiple of the milestones being achieved (which they were, on time), and from an accounting perspective the Board determined several of the milestones to be in the 70% band of probability. All of that aside - and regardless of the "right" outcome - this case really came down to the entire fairness standard of judicial review (which to me (an M&A lawyer, not a litigator), seems to have been correctly applied). Once you are in that realm, it's tough to win, particularly with the bad facts Elon and the Board created.- $9.95 worth every penny

I need to start a stand alone thread, but finally got around to Zone of Interest last night. Fucking intense- 2024 Texas Football Coaching and Support Staff Thread

Whoo boy, whoever this Steve Sarkisian guy is better not bring that line of thinking into the Surly recruiting forum. We were told not to question Bo Davis and his recruiting results.- 2024 Oscar Nominees
He was worse outside of the courtroom in the grand meeting scene. He and Leo were in different movies.- Killers of the Flower Moon - Scorsese, Dicaprio, De Niro - 10.20.2023 release
I realize Surly isn’t exactly filled to the brim with cinephiles, but claiming that KOTFM “wasn’t a noteworthy movie” is certainly up there with bad takes.- 2024 Oscar Nominees
It was clear that he was doing what Marty asked of him, which was a directorial mistake. KOTFM was my favorite movie of the year and a modern master piece, but the Fraser stuff is just tonally off and disjointing. I was at the NBR awards the other night, and Marty started talking about the scene where the Osage gather in a circle to talk about the ongoing travesty. He said they needed some audience reaction shots, so he asked one of the loquacious Osage actors to rile the folks up. The resulting off the cuff monologue was so great Marty decided to leave it in, and, in my opinion, is one of the best scenes of the movie. What a picture- 2024 Oscar Nominees
I guess I’m ok with Gerwig not being nominated, because that category is stacked. Personally I would swap her in for Yorgos (another film that struggles with being a bit too one note in an otherwise masterfully created world). Robbie not being nominated over Annette Bening is fucking insane.- Texas Recruiting Notes 2024: Bags Don't Beat Bankrolls
Right. There is the fact that, for the last 14 years, the offseason was the best part of being a Texas football fan. Every offseason, Gerald Wilbon could be the next Terrance Cody, Andrew Fitzgerald could be the next JJ Watt, and the lightbulb would finally come on for Naashon Hughes. Of course, all those dreams came crashing down every fall, but hope springs eternal, and that drives conversation. In short, it was like being a Texas A&M fan for the last 84 years.- Killers of the Flower Moon - Scorsese, Dicaprio, De Niro - 10.20.2023 release
Sometimes Marty doesn’t cater to the slack jaws among us. Nolan is great at that.- Taylor Sheridan adapting “Empire of the Summer Moon”
