Jarvis Landry single-handedly destroyed our football team in two consecutive years...

Then kudos to you for breaking the mold. Sounds like a good move for you....

[quote]What kind of education are these kids getting, if they have a substitute half the time?[/quote] If he’s anything like the coaches that taught me in school, they might learn more from the substitute. Kudos to him if he’s better though....

[quote]frick her or it or whatever. Stupid people doing stupid shite. Live with it and shut the frick up. Zero empathy.[/quote] It’s fine to feel this way about the parents and doctors (i.e. adults who should know better), but the kid is a kid who made a stupid decision that she shouldn’t have b...

How could you not trust the guy that violated the most basic tenant of being a lawyer (client confidentiality)?...

No chance. They’re probably building this with current BR population in mind and by the time it’s done it’ll already be too small. Louisiana government is incapable of forward thinking....

Last week’s top sets @ 170BW: Bench: 260x8 OHP: 140x8 Squat: 275x10 DL: 315x8...

[quote]Oh, and a huge adoption of nuclear power.[/quote] This probably deserves its own thread. It’s absolutely ridiculous that we aren’t investing in nuclear in this day and age. The tech is so much safer than it was. Sure, it’s expensive to get up and running but it’s exponentially more efficie...

Not for me, but it looks way better than the Maverick imo....

Filed by the billionaire who crowdsourced funding for his election lawsuit challenges. It’s petty bull shite like this that turned people away from him in the first place and he’s just doubling down on it. ...

Find a connection at your local airport. Assuming you don’t own a plane, you can expect the full cost of getting a VFR license to be in the $8000-12000 range. Flight instructors in my city run about $200/hr and you have to rent a plane for another $100-200 an hour if you don’t supply one. You need 4...

1. Corruption; and 2. (More importantly) We give away the farm in tax incentives. Average tax rate on capital intensive manufacturing (most of the big businesses in LA) averages around a .1% effective tax rate in the first 10 years due to property tax exemptions then jumps to an average effective t...

It’s on the upper end, but that’s not insanely expensive compared to other companies with similar luggage products. ...

$1 mil for $38/mo...

At his age, concussions are no bueno. My step-grandfather died from a concussion at 83....

I think cornered wasn’t the best choice of words. One of them basically scares the shark and keeps its attention while the other sprints at 45mph from 200 feet below and ambushes the shark before it even knows what happened. They could only corner them near the shoreline, but the shark can go in sha...

Yeah, there’s no doubt COL has gone up and some of the numbers in there are representative of that, but this was a poor example imo....

[quote]$525 Car Note[/quote] Pulling this as a blatant example, but I make far more than $50k a year and don’t have a car note this high. This is right here is a spending problem rather than a COL problem. I’d also put a $1400 mortgage on a $50k salary in that category as well. My current mortgag...

I wish I remembered the name of it to post, but watched a documentary on Orcas and it was fascinating. They’re smarter than even dolphins to the point that they actively control their populations to make sure they’ll always have enough food. Males will only seek out mates when one of their pod dies ...

So you like social security because you paid into it. That’s all you had to say. If anyone thinks SS will ever get gutted by the government refunding what you paid in, it’ll always be here. For better or worse, it hurts ripping off a band-aid and you don’t have the stones to take the heat for the be...
