  1. You are in NOVA aren't you? Do you know anyone who has had any interactions with that impound lot? I know a couple and they don't have nice things to say.
  2. I don't think what she did was right. I'm just saying that if there is a group of people who will push you to the point where you will insult them any way you can(Piece of advice...Insult them from behind the glass, you do not want to fight these people. They are ready to fight at all times.) it is the tow truck/impound people. The problem is that they have your balls(or boobs) in a vice and instead of acting like decent people, they price gouge and treat you like shit. It is one of the only industries where you can be a complete asshole and people have no choice but to deal with you. They have your car and can essentially charge anything they want for you to get it back. They are basically the mob from Goodfellas, you want your car? Fuck you pay me. We treat you like shit? Fuck you, pay me. We are charging a price that makes no fucking sense whatsoever? Fuck you, pay me. I'm not saying she's right, I'm saying I can see why you might curse them out.
  3. Yeah. Well people thought the same about the Raiders and Al Davis. Look how fucking well that has turned out. I am too damn old to outlive another fucking Davis. How long do we have to pretend that Al Davis was the problem? Sure he was old as dirt, and looked like the cryptkeeper, but he was the last of a dying breed of football geniuses. He was past his prime, but he obviously knew more about football than anyone else than anyone else in the Raiders organization. Remember when we all thought he was crazy when he hated Lane Kiffin? He turned out to be absolutely right. Sure he used an overhead projector like a teacher from 1973, but he was right. But Al WAS the problem...from at least, 2003 on. Sure he was a football genius in his prime. But the prime was long past. Not going to lie, Al Davis was as good as it gets as a football mind from the 60's up until he decided to move the Raiders to LA and start a prolonged war with the NFL and Rozelle that essentially ruined his drive to be a football man. He got lucky in the late-90's when he got good football people in to run things for him - including Gruden. But from the Callahan years on, Al was clearly running things and it was one disaster after another. And the fact that he hated Kiffin is completely cancelled out by the fact that he...ya know...hired Kiffin in the first place. Umm...I know that Al hired Lane Kiffin, but he figured out he was full of shit and dropped his ass like a lead balloon ASAP. How many people have hired that con man afterwards? All of those people thought Al Davis was crazy for firing him how he did, but upon further review ultimately came to regret hiring him. All those people ended up giving him millions of dollars, Al recouped millions of dollars. Of all the people who ended up in the Lane Kiffin business, the only one who came out on the positive side of the ledger is Al Davis. He was in charge of the Raider from 1963 until 2011, and for 40 years he was an undisputed genius. We can blame him for their lack of success after 2003, but that ignores the fact that they've been just as bad if not worse since he died. He clearly wasn't nearly who he was in the previous 40 years, but at least he had a strategy on how to build a team. The guys they have in place now don't seem to have any idea what they want to do. Not saying he was great, just saying that he wasn't nearly as bad as we remember.
  4. Am I the only one who doesn't really think this is a big deal? Tow truck drivers and the people who work at impound lots are some of the most unpleasant people on the planet. They decided to dedicate their lives to making people miserable. They always jack up prices, give you the third degree, and inconvienence people every way they can. They get shit talked all day long, the only reason this is a story is because we know her name. I remember my friend got his car towed from my neighborhood and they charged him for 2 days when his car wasn't there for one, added a weekend fee, and a holiday fee. That is after we had to argue with them to even release the car in the first place. This asshole stood behind the counter of a business and told us they were closed despite being during their posted business hours. They then said they wouldn't be reopening for another three days and we could come back to get his car then. Of course he would have to pay for all three days with the extra weekend and holiday rates added to each day. So they decided they would do him a favor and only charge him $450 to get his car when they may have had it for 4 hours. Guess what, he HAD to pay it, or they would have just kept his car. We have no idea what those people said, did, or tried to charge her for, before she started talking shit. Fuck those people.
  5. How is Tim Riggins not the biggest movie star on the planet? I guess he still has it pretty good, and True Detective will surely help, but that dude should be making all the money. Michael B. Jordan also has the Rocky spinoff coming up. That could be big. Im guessing John Carter didn't do Riggins any favors in terms of him being able to carry a movie. Im surprised Saracen and Jason Street don't turn up more often. I guess Tyra shows up in quite a few things. Yes I know all these people have real names Im just too lazy to look them up. Tyra's problem is that she is almost 6 feet tall when most of the guys in Hollywood aren't anywhere close to that tall. She would tower over most of the leading men working these days. I, not being very tall myself, am secure enough that I'd let her tower all over me.
  6. Yeah. Well people thought the same about the Raiders and Al Davis. Look how fucking well that has turned out. I am too damn old to outlive another fucking Davis. How long do we have to pretend that Al Davis was the problem? Sure he was old as dirt, and looked like the cryptkeeper, but he was the last of a dying breed of football geniuses.

  7. That is a very real worry, because Disney looks like they've decided to ride these motherfuckers until the wheels fall off. I don't think they need to do another AOS, but if they decide not to make a spin off it won't be from lack of time, money, or resources.
  8. Y'all act like Disney doesn't have the resources to produce more than a show or two at a time. They'll probably have two billion dollar movies this year, they can afford to make as many shows as they want.
  9. Except he is a terrible coach. They have to work way too hard to get points, and they have two of the top 5 players in the league. All of their playoff runs end with a team denying KD the ball and Westbrook getting blamed for every loss for shooting too much. The problem is there is no system in place to get those guys easy shots. KD and Russ have to manufacture everything.
  10. I thought Temptation Island was going to be the biggest reality show ever. It was a show about putting the 3 best looking, horniest couples possible on an island and made them go on dates with all the other couples. Shocker of shockers all of those people ended up sleeping with each other. Why did that show only last one season? I was probably 19 or 20 when that show was on and it was the biggest topic of conversation at my job. For what it's worth I worked at a place where everyone was sleeping with each other so I guess we could relate.
  11. I would have bet that the cast of Friday Night Lights was going to next crop of movie stars. Michael B. Jordan is the only one who has a chance...and he's in the new Fantastic Four. I thought Heroes was going to be an all-time great show...it is probably the worst show I've watched every episode of, and I'm kind of excited for the reboot. I didn't give The Wire a chance until halfway through Season 3...I went to the local video store and rented the first disk of the first season and ended up going back the same day and rented the rest.
  12. May never says "I killed her" when Coulson's trying to get her out of her state of shock on the plane, only "I couldn't save her." I'm not saying it's a sure thing, just that it's a possibility. This seems a bit much to go to the assumption that Mey didn't kill her, especially taking into account how much it changed her life.. Yeah, that whole thing is really inconclusive. It could be that May killed her and ended up really shook up about it, or that she figured out she couldn't kill a child only to have someone teleport in and kill that child right in front of her. Either way I can see how that could take its toll on someone, especially someone who probably never doubted herself.

    Justified

    That is one of the most satisfying finales I've ever watched. I never thought this was the best show on TV, but I always thought it was the most fun. That last scene was perfect. Am I the only one who thinks that Boyd gave himself up, because when it came down to it the only two people in the world he actually respected are Ava and Raylan? Despite all of their bullshit, I've always sensed that Raylan and Boyd actually really liked each other.
  14. No, just a shattered femur wish. That is indeed the dumbest spot of all time.
  15. Tom Morello playing with Bruce is like the Wu-Tang Clan being produced by Dr. Dre. It sounds like it would work, until you realize that they are complete opposites.
  16. At the same time don't you think what ever firm got that deal had a set of guide lines that was pretty limiting? I mean I just cant see the Browns going like the Broncos and totally changing there design. There was no reason to change them in the first place. The entire point of bringing back the Browns, their colors, and their history back in '99 is because that team, those colors, and their history means a lot to those fans. Changing the uniforms after 70 years is dumb and unnecessary. They look like flag football league uniforms. I swear they hate their fans.
  17. She didn't kill that child. Skye's mother did or at least that's how it seemed to me. Wasn't the point of that entire plot was to tell the story that they killed that girl who got exposed to the mist without their approval? That is why her mother told her she couldn't tell anyone that they were related, because the last time a mother gave her child powers they killed her.
  18. I bet Hernandez is wishing he'd got tried in Florida. But, yeah: thank God. Guy may legit be a serial killer. As numerous people have pointed out on social media, there needs to be a 30-for-30 about how Urban Meyer kept the 08-09 Gators under wraps. Tim Tebow, the Pounceys, Percy, and #81 is quite the cast of characters. I'm all the way in on that one.
  19. I used to think Robin Givens was good looking. Then my friend said she looked like a Decepticon...which she does and I've never thought she was attractive again.
  20. Not sure which looks more unsafe: that move or the building itself. I'm trying to figure out whether or not he took that bump on purpose. It looks like he may have hooked the rope, kicked his legs up and flipped over, or he just adjusted to make the best of what is sure to be a terrible landing. Either way that is one of the dumbest spots fo all time.
  21. I'm not saying that at all. I'm just reacting to how people make themselves believe that their shitty team is better than my shitty team when in reality they are and have been just as if not more shitty as my team has been.
  22. Layla Kayleigh, Alison Haslip and Sara Underwood not on my television every night is a bad thing. Yeah, I have no idea how they didn't get picked up by another network when G4 went under. It wasn't their fault that they were the only show on that network worth watching. They did the best coverage for things like E3 and Comic-con and while those conventions have become more popular there is still a vacuum in coverage since G4 went away.
  23. Raiders?I want to put the Jag Offs in that category too, but Goddamn, the Shitstains of Cleveland have gone through so many GM, coaching and QB changes, that its hard to approach that type of incompetence. Add in the new jerseys and shit. . . . .but Tampa's are still worse right? Aren't you a Bills fan? I probably wouldn't talk shit if my team had a longer playoff drought than the team I just called woefully incompetent. You beat me to it. Those jerseys are fucking terrible. The Browns uniforms have essentially been the same since Marion Motley was running the football, and they change them to these? Why would they change the uniforms any way? Are the Packers and the Bears about to change their jerseys?
