[quote]This happened often in petroleum engineering at LSU too. They all sat in back row and would talk to each other in their language during exams.[/quote] Can’t stand them. It’s not like a one off thing either. They’re almost all like that in my experience. Just obnoxious and have no manners. ...
Jaxton, Braxton or Landon? More like Mohammed, Aamir and Achmed. ...
[quote]I'd rather live in certain parts of Arkansas (#47) than anywhere in Minnesota (#4).[/quote] This is true. I’d rather live in the nice parts of the following “bottom 10 states” than about 35 other states. New Mexico - North Mts South Carolina - upstate mts or coast Oklahoma - Eas...

[quote]Not to mention casinos, "sportsman's paradise", timber, and petrochemical industry. [/quote] Other states also have casinos, petrochemical and timber. The whole sportsman’s paradise thing is completely over blown. The white tail hunting is vastly mismanaged. The quality of trophy buc...
Bottom 10 is laughable. Not wasting the time to open the link and read it. The metrics used are not the same metrics I’d use. This “bottom 10” has multiple states that offer some of the best recreational outdoor activities. Apparently that doesn’t matter here. ...

Can we agree that out of the major Louisiana cities Shreveport is definitely last. Not ranking them but Lafayette, Nola, BR, Monroe, Alexandria, Northshore then a big gap and there’s Shreveport. ...

[quote]Most of the “legends” haven’t played at this stadium.[/quote] Alex Bregman, Paul Skenes, Tommy White, Aaron Nola, Austin Nola, DJ LeMahieu, Josh smith, Alex Lange Just to name a few. ...
[quote]The military is a good option for someone that doesn’t want to go to college. [/quote] I agree. It’s not encouraged nearly enough either. You really set yourself up for a long time if you play your cards right. ...
Welding school, HVAC school or diesel mechanic school. Those are solid options as alternatives for kids that can handle hard work. However it’s still preferred to go ahead and just get a bachelors in business at the very least. ...
Does this stem from the chick on the Tom Brady roast? She definitely fit the mold for not funny. Don’t get me wrong there’s some that are funny but it’s very rare. One that can be funny is Jennifer Aniston. She has her funny moments. Most of the funny women are funny because we’re more so laughi...
[quote]MIT and Stanford, like most universities now, are liberal safe havens and are now considered a joke.[/quote] A joke? I don’t think so. Yall really gotta stop letting 18-22 year olds views dictate your opinion. You build your entire personality around politics. It’s not even that serious. ...
Questioning a Louisiana public service? You’re wasting your time. ...

[quote]All this talk of renovations is laughable. Should have been done right the first time. Place is already a dump compared to recent renovations and upgrades to other SEC parks[/quote] Dated? Sure. But dump is a bit drastic. The Box is will always be one of those iconic venues in baseball. Fu...
[quote]What went wrong is cultural. There are no safe affordable areas for kids to start out. They are all crime ridden slums.[/quote] Texas metropolitan suburbs are excellent places to begin careers. Always has been. Always will be.
