@Light2AllofYou @the_transit_guy You can't reason with train (or bike) fetishists.

@the_transit_guy Drive 30-45 minutes to a train station to be locked into an enclosed space with strangers for hours, only to get to another train station where you have to rent another car to drive another 30-45 minutes to your destination - OR - just drive there.

Texas has “4 of the top 10” biggest cities in the country and yet doesn’t have high speed rail that looks like this:

@frandalorian Been there.

Me, trying to get my dick hard in the bathroom while my prom date was ready and waiting just outside the door.

@AdamAdonis7 I love it. I'd live there in an instant. I might be tempted to change the front porch styling a *little* but the floor plan is nearly perfect.

@Rightanglenews LOL. I see a clown and I think of the circus.

@Rightanglenews This is the result of the Beto election. The Dems put $$$ into GOTV and wiped out all of the Republican judges in Harris County (all of them!) and put an unprepared, inexperienced, mentally unstable "girl boss" in charge of the County. We're still dealing with the sad results.

BREAKING - A newly uncovered email shows the Texas judge who went viral for berating an IT worker, Nathan Milliron, abused his authority by attempting to force an attorney to appear in his court after the attorney sent an email asking the judge to apologize to the IT worker.

@juda1313 Cheerios

What’s your favorite brand of cereal? I’m not looking for the I should be an adult and eat this because it’s healthy, I’m looking for the all time favorite.

@BobChoate54 @HEB I know that if there's ever a problem I'll be trapped but I always go for their upper-level, open-air parking. I need to think about that.

🚨 THE END IS NEAR!!! 🚨 FOUR... FOUR PARKING SPACES OPEN AT THE FRONT OF THE GARAGE AT THE HEIGHTS @HEB (IYKYK)

@KurtSchlichter My favorite dive in college (in Houston) was Rudyard's. Nastiest men's room I've ever seen anywhere in the world. I honestly thought the song on the jukebox was Joy Division's "Level Terrace Apartment".

One thing I love about Houston if you can go to a barbecue joint and they’ll be playing Joy Division

@HankVenture5 @TechOperator 486 DX2/66 for me! It was the first computer I ever owned. And, yes, I did load H.J. Lu's boot/root & MCC Interim Linux on it. [Couldn't do much with them but, still.]

@TechOperator I remember the thrill of getting that first 486DX.

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times…

@9mmsmg At one point, I weighed almost 50% more than I do now. I needed seatbelt extensions. I was, justifiably, ashamed. I *always* managed to stay within (not on) my armrests. On long hauls, I got an aisle seat & sometimes raised the aisle-side armrest. Own your own problems.

It sounds harsh, but no one wants to sit on a plane and have someone else's blubber spill onto them like an adipose avalanche. Being forced to buy a second seat is totally reasonable. If it hurt your feelings, use that as motivation to lose weight. Southwest no longer offers a free seat to calorically wealthy individuals, but they will refund you after if the flight ends up not being fully booked and you ask.

@V_R_Ghost @dennisbhooper A few years ago, I met a nice young fellow in London. He wanted to go for a ride on a Texan and to learn how to say "Motherfucker" like an American. The ride went gloriously. Unfortunately, despite my efforts, his oral talents didn't make the grade.

@dennisbhooper How does “motherfucker/motherfucking” strike the ear to other English speakers?

So c*nt and f*g have way different velocities in American English vs. British, with the latter having an almost entirely separate meaning, and are both way more offensive to Americans. But is there an inverse to this, a casual American expression that horrifies English people?

If I wanted to be freezing cold 24/7, I’d move above the Mason-Dixon Line. This is bullshit.

@Shadzey1 @gunpolicy Is that a Bul?

@gunpolicy 😏

Raise your hand if you carry a "fully loaded firearm with an extra mag" because its perfectly normal 🙋‍♂️

@Ghostofaflea @Babygravy9 First thing I thought of. GREAT book!

@Babygravy9 When one has lived with prophecy for so long, the moment of revelation is a shock.

NGL this is really cool.

@IroncladDev If you want it badly enough you can even make that happen.

The Head of Product AND Product Manager are both out of office for thanksgiving I can do whatever I want in the workplace for a week Except for sexual harrassment because there are no women on the dev team

@AnotherHomoCon Good morning!|

GM! When the week has been brutal to you, you just show it how brutal you are. Now, say GM back, or the week might prove more brutal than you.

@prestonsfag Just because we're old doesn't mean we're dead. I find some speed boats attractive. But I don't want one of my own, don't know how to operate one, & might turn down a ride on one if offered. But I can still appreciate how fucking cool they are.

@AnotherHomoCon GOOD MORNING.

New week, and GM! It’s Monday. Time to fuel up on that black swill and get to it. May the odds be ever in your favor this week. Now, declare your GMs to the crew, or the odds will be against you.

@AnotherHomoCon Good Morning!

Top of the Mornin! GM! Anyone else find the wait for coffee to brew to be an unbearable wait? Now, greet the day back, or that brew time will be brutal.

Signal boosting on this for Sergeant Kevin Lloyd, who I did two deployments with. A record correction package has been sitting on the Naval Board of Corrections for over a month. It would update his record to reflect that he’s dying from an instrumentality of war, which would ensure his family receives full benefits as if he were killed in combat. Because of the government shutdown, that package still hasn’t been approved. This Marine is on his deathbed because of cancer directly related to burn pits. @SenTedCruz and @RepLuttrell, you represent this Marine and his family. He’s in his final hours. Move heaven and Earth to make sure his family is taken care of, because I know you’ve already seen the messages my brothers have left on your phone lines. Stop talking about it. Be about it, for once.
