I’m Gen X, grew up with  the shoes, and idolized Jordan.
I think LeBron is better at basketball.

Yeah, my only point was that millennials are probably more familiar with LeBron than Jordan, because most were a little young for Jordan's heyday. Whereas GenXers like you and me have gotten to see plenty of both.

You're probably right, I got my gens confused.  Generational disputes also piss me off, but I don't think it's that unpopular an opinion.

All I know is I'm making a breakfast sausage sandwich with mustard and pickles in the near future.  Probably some swiss for good measure as well.

Sleeping out in the woods does nothing to me. I don't mind spending a day out there but to sleep in a tent? Fuck that. I'll be in the hotel and come meet y'all back out there the next day.

There are hogs in the woods Vic. Big ones.

The Rolling Stones, United Center, 2013. Jagger addresses the audience.

I've got a better idea.  Add a little onion and tomato and make two

Down with the onion, but the tomato can fuck off.

This right here. Dafuq? "Taco" means "rolled in a tortilla."

Burritos are larger and are basically a whole meal wrapped in a tortilla. Tacos are smaller with fewer ingredients and typically you would eat 2-3 as a meal.

I hate sour cream and anything with the sour cream flavor.

I refuse to eat ranch dressing or anything with ranch flavor.

I don't get "Old Country for Old Men" and I'm a huge Cohen Bros fan.  But not that one.

I can appreciate big picture story line of the Star Wars Prequels, and that bigger picture helps me to not hate the movies.

Pretty much in Guanajuato and places to which people from Guanajuato have emigrated, it means a bean and cheese taco. That same dish, by the way, is called a flauta in Tamaulipas. In the United States, a burrito is a large wrap with a bunch of junk in it. Throughout most of Mexico and most of Texas, however, a bean and cheese taco is just a taco.

But then, I'm explaining this to somebody who probably has rancher's balls for breakfast.

And if I see another LeBron v. Jordan argument I might gouge my eyes out. They played in different eras and had different games. Both are great and were/are the best of their era. The debate has become so predictable too. Millennials who grew up in the 90s insist on Jordan, younger folks like LeBron. Older folks just stroke the flames and will throw some old timer into the conversation. Enough already.

 

 

I was a Celtics and Pistons fan, I hated Jordan. If he had been traded to one of my teams, I would've liked him. I never understood the blind allegiance to Jordan. He was great but if you don't proclaim him as the all-powerful GOD OF BASKETBALL, then you are deemed an idiot. I feel the same about Kobe, Lebron, etc.

Agreed, I can't stand tomatoes on anything.  Mushrooms too.

You are an idiot.

This reminds me of the time, it seems like only yesterday, that I saw someone comment that Trump "made Dubya look like an MIT grad." Of course, Dubya's a Yale grad with an MBA from Harvard, which is ... I dunno, around the same level at worst? I reckon most of the people who thought GWB was "stupid" probably weren't exactly Norman Einsteins themselves.

I was not aware of this Tamaulipan exception.

 

Flautas son de harina... pero solo en Victoria

Quote

De los creadores de “quesadillas con queso o sin queso” llegó un nuevo debate gastronómico: Las flautas, ¿son de maíz o de harina?

La discusión inició por un artículo de Wikipedia que señalaba que son preparados con tortillas de maíz y freídos, dándoles una textura crujiente y una figura similar al instrumento musical del mismo nombre.

Pero en Victoria, Tamaulipas, las cosas se hacen diferente: Las flautas son tacos de tortilla de harina suaves rellenas de guiso, mientras que los preparados con tortilla de maíz frita son conocidas como tacos dorados.

Aparentemente, este es el único lugar de la República donde se les conoce de esta manera, señalado por una actualización al artículo de la enciclopedia más grande del Internet.

Well fuck me. Up is down, down is up (in Tamaulipas)

They wouldn't last a semester at UT

Had a discussion about Scorcese movies last night and stumbled into an unpopular opinion I hold...

I like The Departed better than Casino and Goodfellas.

Footballs should be highlighter yellow so you can see them on replay review

but what about when oregon plays? 

and camping sucks is trending towards popular opinion on this thread. at VERY most I'll throw an inflatable mattress in the back of my SUV on a very cool fall night, but f doing the tent thing and all that. 

 

Similar to camping is the full on tailgating setup, that shit is so beyond overrated, especially if you're the one hosting/setting it up. And even more so at UT games where so much of it is in parking lots/on concrete. 

The State Fair of Texas is a fucking beating and there is nothing special about Fletcher corn dogs.

It should be easy pickings for you.
Oh I get that aspect but that means I actually have to go out there and deal with the Fair. Unless it's for Texas OU tailgating and the game, I'm out on it.

tend to agree with vic on the fair, i haven't gone unless for RRS in probably 20 yrs

I root for the Euro's in the Ryder cup.  Fuck getting behind a bunch of rich entitled prima donnas.  The Euro's celebrate with their fans and enjoy the competition.  Could you imagine  Spieth, Tiger, or Bubba letting some random fans carry them up on their shoulders or even appreciate a pat on the back?  You can't because it wouldn't happen.  Go Euro's, keep the cup until we get some relatable golfers.

I can appreciate that but on the other hand, golf sucks.  It is a terrible sport.  I have golfed, hit balls at the range, played a few nice courses when I was younger and figuring out what I liked in life.  I came away realizing the only thing that could be more boring than playing golf is watching golf.   The only redeeming thing that has ever been associated with golf is that girl whose trophy pic looked like she was sucking a cock and Tiger's whore stories.  All that shit they do with clubs and balls is a waste of land.

Same here. Give me a hot dog over a corn dog any day. But for some reason, people hype up these Fletcher's corn dogs for the State Fair.

Yep. I have given golf a chance be it watching and playing and does nothing for me. It's boring as fuck to play and even worse watching people do it on tv. It's not spectator sport at all. Tennis on the other hand is great to watch and play. It's an actual sport. Golf is an activity used for business deals and drinking.

Hot dogs are waste meat from the processing plant.

Corn dogs are made with the hot dogs that don't make the cut.  Those things are vile.

I'm sure he's referring to the manmade lakes in Texas and Oklahoma, and I assume most of the rest of the south.  I agree with him.  Even the "nice" lakes in my opinion are gross.  And even the "rich" lakes have a disproportionately large population of poor rednecks riding their financed jet skis.  

Edited by 'stache

that's another damn good point stache, the vast majority of the lake people are just trash. and you're right in that the manmade lakes of the south are my main reference as Tahoe and the west coast of Michigan are both great.

The lake attracts white trash, hillbillies and frat bros in terms of the lake activities.

And the rest of us swim in the pool in our back yard.  Clean water and you only have to mingle with people you invite.  Oh, and I can drink because I'm not driving anywhere.

i cant stand malik rami and john krasinski's face.
