"Let me knock out a quick break"

The show is more ad than content. It's 5 mins of ads and then he comes back on and shills for another minute or so before he talks for 3 mins and does another ad break. It's ridiculous. I've largely quit listening to him but checked it out today, it's terrible.
Are they buying them at Petco? Can't imagine there are herds of feral Guinea Pigs running around NYC, but you never know. Wouldn't imagine that would be very cost-efficient if so.
I don't see how you can rule this as animal cruelty, the hawk is clearly having a great time.
Women will get emotional seeing this and then go have an abortion

Not to detract from Jay being the Goat or anything, but can I just say it pains me how boring the NCAA trophies are?

"Congratulations, you've just accomplished the most difficult feat in college athletics, here's your mid-century modern chairback". It's just so...underwhelming.

Obviously, I'm glad these trophies are in LSUs trophy case, but I think they need to be more special and unique to the sport to which they're presented. Just more evidence of the NCAA being an inferior organization.

Had them in the condo complex I lived in during college. It was a one way in, one way out complex, and they were the small, sharp ones that were bolted into the cement. I had to drive over 3 or 4 sets to get to my place, it was annoying as hell. One night, my roommates and I had a few beers and decided to take an impact driver I had and remove them. Was a pretty quick quality of life upgrade, they never replaced them while I was there.

Proud to be the 1100th
He was absolutely hysterical as the ghost of Peter the Great in "The Great" on Hulu. Probably my favorite role of his.



We had them in Shreveport in the 90s. I would routinely stick the straw through both sides of the bag and have to use the straw to drink my milk from one of the compartments on the food tray. We used to blow them up and stick the straw through the other side to make a balloon. One time the kid next to me did this and he dropped it on the ground. I stomped on it and it popped, sounded like a gunshot in the cafeteria. I got in trouble :lol:
Chaos & Truce would make more sense considering that's the order in which they usually occur. Truce & Chaos makes me think of Turks & Caicos.

Man this goes so hard and I've never heard them play more than like the first 10 seconds or so of it in TS. I would love to hear the full version of this in the stadium. Will probably never happen, have to have moar piped in crap with out of sync audio.
Was checking out at a store the other day and the cashier asked me that. I just looked at him and told him I didn't have one. I was holding my phone in my hand at the time.

I'm just trying to make a purchase, we don't need to bring phone numbers or emails into this. Stop trying to harvest my data. Stop asking me a million questions at checkout. shite is beyond aggravating at this point. Can't even get a damn carwash anymore without dealing with some guy pushing a subscription.
Looks better than the one with Brad Pitt by the same name that Netflix also released
Great episode. I was cracking up at all the apples in the tent.

I've not read the books, but watched a bunch of Alt Shift X, etc stuff on the world and all of the history. It's interesting seeing the seeds of Robert's Rebellion get planted even at this time period.

I just got back from a Big Bend trip. It's fantastic. Lost Mine trail is a must do. The other big one is The Window, which I believe is around 5 miles out and back, where you descend on the way out and ascend on the way back. I skipped this one, but you can still get a great view of The Window on the short, flat Window View trail that starts at Chisos Basin. I made the choice to do the Lost Mine trail in the day I had allotted to Chisos Basin, and I'm glad I did. You might be able to do both if you get an early start and are very fit. Lost Mine, at 5.3 miles and nearly 1200 feet of elevation gain was enough for me for one day.

Devote a day to Ross Maxwell Scenic Drive. Start at Santa Elena Canyon and work your way back out.

There are a myriad of trails to choose from. You will not get bored. The landscape is literally like you're in Red Dead Redemption 2 in real life. It changes from desert to mountains in just a few minutes of driving - it's incredibly unique.

If you have time, check out Big Bend Ranch State Park. I did a canoe trip down the Rio Grande with Far Flung Outdoor Center and it was excellent.

On a clear night, the stars are incredible. If you have a camera with a tripod, the night sky photo opportunities are some of, if not the best in the lower 48.
