Comcast filed a complaint today to remove the "Hi I'm Rob Lowe" commercials because they are untrue/unfair or whatever.

I feel old. Didn't realise till yesterday when he threw out the first pitch that Biggio has been retired 8 years now. Damn. Highlight of my Astros fandom was my great grandparents having their anniversary at the dome in 1981 and someone with pull got Nolan Ryan to come up and wish them well...

They don't have such places in the ghetto aka food deserts. Don't you watch the news. Even the president said it was easier to buy a gun in certain communities than vegetables. Good thing illegal gun sellers don't take EBT - or maybe they do I dunno.

Camo is huge, like you said you keep the same bonus moving as sitting still. No reason to NOT get camo early on maybe only behind sixth sense for the commander. I will add apparently I added gold camo to my E75 at some point because it never goes away. Good thing I play it still alot. Only...

16,000 games and I haven't platooned one time. At one time I had a 53% overall win rate and a 1350ish WN8. Now it's slipped a whole lot because I frankly don't give a shit. If a team is 19% to win and then they go all one way and then stop 2 grids away I don't waste my time. Other examples...

My thoery on lakeville is some of the heavies can't make it to the enemy cap even if they run into zero resistance. The ground speed is sooooo slow there for a real heavy they can't get anywhere if your team is on the ball. Always seems like a Maus or Lowe go there. The T29 used to be the...

Polo.

Remember every like is a wasted 0.5 seconds out of someones life.

Back then at first the only thing available was dial up so it didn't matter. I still shipped drawings overnight to the shops. Then the senator from the state bought the large property across the road since her parents were from the town 7 miles down the road as a get away. Then they put the CO...

Is this really somthing new? A little acetone and you can get rid of super glue in seconds, then reapply.

Go back even further than the fax. I know it's an April fools joke but it's actually faster (assuming you know code) The real app. I might try it, I send code a hell of a lot faster than I can text. https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...morseime&hl=en Introduction of video is cut...

As mentioned I worked at home and loved it, of course I lived in the very very sticks at the time (nearest neighbor about 7 miles away) and I didn't have to clock in or whatever. If I needed a break to clear my mind I just walked outside and shot steel plate targets or sat on the deck and...

Probably have to factor in a lot of stuff not money related, how bad do you hate traffic and commuting? How much do you need that 20% to live on? Peace of mind has a lot more value to me, but a lot of people want the most dollar.

I'm not a legal scholar obviously. So the supreme court says a police officer has no duty to protect a citizen, I guess as long as they don't say they didn't do it on religious grounds it's OK? But if you decline to bake a cake you're in more trouble legally than a police officer that decides...

I was self employed for almost 20 years and I worked at home. I didn't have to take a pay cut so no help there. I enjoyed it. If you don' thave a strict schedule you can fall into the trap of "I have two weeks to do this...and fuck off for a week and then bust ass for a week to get it done"...

So you are compeled to bake a cake, but the supreme court rules police have no duty to protect. Got it.

But like I said I own land and a house that came with it in what is probably the bottom 10 in TX and I still can't see that bottom number being middle class there. Maybe it's skewed by abentee landowners like myself I dunno. Maybe it's skewed by the number of retirees. The county has 1/2 the...

92 today.

I kept waiting for her to lose an arm or something similar.

In dry counties and neighboring non dry counties in TX because they didn't want the trash drinking they went to memberships. You go out to eat at a restaurant and add $1.00 to the bill to become a member and drink (one person per table). If you're trash or someone they don't want to serve to...

Like I said I understand that in very populated areas. San Antonio is freaking huge and spread out, but people have decided they rather have upteen upgrades and a 4,500 square foot house on a 8,000 square foot lot. That's fine. Just don't understand the people who can't see the flip side of...

Mentioned it several times before. Hello private clubs for a business even if we sell cakes. Charge $1.00 to join and just throw it on the bill. Ooooh sorry we're not taking new members today or we're full. Multiple ways to skin a cat.

Right now I live about 5 minutes or less from the city limits of the 7th most populated city in the US. Not exactly in the middle of nowhere. I own a house that I currently don't livein that's in the middle of nowhere because it went with land that I did a 3 way land exchange for with the US...

Non housing derail. Just saw this. How much you have to earn to be considered middle class in every US state - Yahoo Finance I want to know where you live in TX that $35k counts as middle class. I own land and a house in a very rural area in East, TX which is pretty damn poor and $35k...

About 1/3 of our office are CA transplants since our parent company is located in the bay area. They are in the process of moving more towards TX. The company has built most of the skyline of SF and I met the owner for the first time last week (I've only been there 2 months). We shared a ride in...

I guess if you like living 3ft. from someone and literally in a lot of these subidivisions you can touch your house and your neighbors house at the same time and it's a $300k+ house. My biggest issue is real estate agents who don't understand not everyone likes to live like that. I give them...

I understand it in highly populated areas. But these are suburbs pretty much in the middle of nowhere, you can drive 5 minutes in a couple of directions on be where houses are on multiple acres (sometimes LOTS more). You drive thru the hill country of nothing but ranches and then boom, 200...

That's San Francisco if his location in the upper left is right.

I don't understand it, rather have a smaller house and a bigger lot big enough to have a garage to park the cars in rather than the road. Not a fan of houses with the garage in the front either. Looks like they designed the house around the garage. I realise lots of people can't afford the...

Her sister lives on Lake Travis. I went and visited. I looked up the house next door since it was for sale. Only $16 million. Nice house, but it didn't do anything for me. If I live where I pay $16 million for a house I don't want to see neigbhors, and damn near not close enough to have a...

My girlfriend drives a Maserati. It's a nice car...but she makes about 1/4 what I do and she always complains of how expensive shit is where she lives and the price of home ownership/rent is going up up up (Austin). Of course I make 4x what she makes and I drive a 7 year old truck I paid $27k...

The feds announced last week they are suing a gun range in AR for having a sign that said "No muslim terrorist" allowed.

I guess stock in comanies that make signs that read "Management reserves the right to refuse service" are going to tank.

Mostly in the firearm industry. As noted even when the laws don't specify sending to an FFL lots of places now just refuse to ship straight to CA. I have also seen it in hobby related businesses online, they just refuse to ship to CA mostly for whatever reason not related to a rule on...

Edited, left out "to ship to". Not all that uncommon and they put on the website why as well.

Surpsied you guys haven't thrown a fit about businesses that refuse to certain states that they don't agree with politically or didn't vote their way and impacted their business/industry.

I guess I'm in the really super minority. I never cared what someone else at work was making. I figured I agreed to what I wanted to make for X job when I went to work there regardless of what someone else was making. Never understood it. As far as my employer knows I have a GED (which I do)...

You realise most of that was people who were dyed in the wool democrats. You couldn't find a democrat in the south until just recently. In fact it was in my lifetime that a lot of counties in the deep south even had a a republican primary for state and local elections.
