    The Fast Food Thread

    Ok, so I have 4 kids all playing baseball in a pretty competitive league that has 2 games a week per team. Luckily, I have twins so it only 3 teams but that still means 6 games a week, games start at 6:30, and they have to be there an hour before the game for cages and warmup. All of that to...

    MLB 2023: Houst*n wins, America loses

    I am loving this. We are at a little league ballpark for our twins game and when Altuve hit the home run I could hear cheering from every field. Good shit.

    The Problem With Jon Stewart

    I'm surprised anyone takes anything he produces seriously after his episode about Whiteness. To be fair, I have not taken him seriously since he hid his propaganda pieces behind the veil of 'comedy' and then told people with the courage to call themselves political commentators that THEY were...

    New Cawl/Bile book is great. Way less bolter porn and way more plot/lore advancement. It's called Genefather.

    Rick and Morty

    I thought the Rick voice was almost spot on and the Morty was really close. It wasn't too distracting. The problem was that the episode was fucking retarded and not funny at all. It feels like the writers don't like R&M but are trying to write jokes that R&M fans will like...it is just cringe...

    Our guy is absolutely at some bar drunk as shit and is going to tell us that the PI call was bullshit because it was uncatchable. He's also going to complain about holding....but they didn't call a holding penalty all game. That was the best game of the season for the SEC, I mean Bi.... no I...

    Marvel Universe stuff

    I don't think it was actually the Apocalypse makeup, the generally got it right. My issue was that Apoc was supposed to be Juggernaut size/strength and always looked (to me) like he was made of metallic flesh. When he showed up as a regular sized dude in makeup I noped out.

    With all the wind rushing up into OK it is understandable to think that it is a sucking mechanism. In reality, UT blows so fucking hard that it pushes gulf weather systems into the central plains. It's in all the science textbooks but I can forgive a UT fan for not being able to read.

    These fucking morons live such sheltered lives that they don't realize that they cannot get away with one tenth of the shit that they would in a blue US state when they are abroad. My parents had super limited travels outside of the US but when I told them I was going they both said "make sure...

    This is just fucking virtue signaling; Unity is a company and are free to chose to up their price until their sales go to 0 and the company goes under. Why should anyone care if one for profit company "unequivocally condemn and reject" a move by another company? Does Samsung "condem and...

    It's amazing that they can even emasculate Lan; a'Lan Mandagoron, the king with no kingdom. He was the ultimate stoic and supreme badass that started showing humanity when Moriane left and he started falling for Nynaeve. This show sounds terrible. I say sounds because I refuse to watch a...

    There is not. I would give my left nut to get into an investment property for less that 20% down. You can go conventional and be between 3-5% down, but there are upper and lower limits to the finance amounts.

    Oh shit! I take it back. He was probably teaching our players how to rape and not get caught while they took that picture. Our administration should be ashamed of not documenting his presence out of all 85k+ people there. They better release several strongly worded apologies that no one will...

    Bro, I was just about to come in here to post this and tag you. I know it is all faux outrage to get clicks and views; but goddamn if all of these fans aren't acting like gigantic pussies. He came down on the field to be with his family after the game wearing his families' team shirt. Did...

    I agree with both of you when we are talking about someone who has a job/career that is relatively stable and they can plan out the next 20 years around the same location. My issue with owning vs. renting is that MOBILITY is one of the most valuable assets to the job market and a huge...

    We are not in some horrible dystopian nightmare where homeownership is sinking to unimaginably low levels; in fact, much like everything else in this country, we are coming off an absolute high and actually returning closer to a century long mean. Have you ever thought that long term home...

    This is not being a landlord, it is being a property manager for a short term rental. Much different and you would expect the clientele to be different and it to be a much more active and hands on experience. My wife is trying to convince me that we need to grab a place in the Destin area of...

    I don't think you are getting it. The people that rent "starter" houses from us are not getting pushed out if the market by high prices. They are either unable to qualify for a home loan or move jobs/towns enough that owning would cost more than renting. The people that should be buying our...

    I had friends that grew in stable middle class families that moved into trailer parks out of high school because it was cheap. The younger generation needs to be taught how to share housing, cook, and save their goddamn money for important things like a house.

    It's amazing to me that studios are ok with morons taking the popular book/comic/game that is great because of the story and then making it almost unrecognizeable. They all lack the small amount of critical thinking necessary for them to understand that the thing is great because of all the...

    I went out and stood on it/walked it for a good 10 minutes. It is not nearly as bad as I was bitching about. It really does just need more fill sand.

    Yes they did. We may be able to fix some of it with more filling sand. I am just in a complaining mood.
