This is not a drill.

Hopefully Trump can steer this country out of this dire state.

Kansas State Football / KSUADGT's Balls

« on: December 10, 2018, 08:39:52 PM »

Are they visible from space?  Or more manageable to where he can haul them around in a wheel barrow like Randy in that south park episode?

Either way, I give two of these:  to the guy who told a sizeable portion of KSU's fanbase: You don't know what you're talking about, I'm just gonna get a guy to win championships and sorry if it hurts or fragile little feelings in the meantime.

Kansas State Football / Should Bill Come Back to Calm the Waters?

Don’t know how to post surveys from my phone so just reply yes or no in the comments and I’ll tally it up later.

Kansas State Football / North Texas vs Utah State

Have the matchmakers been reading gE?

Just hospitalized after breaking 3 ribs. Can she last until 2020?

Anyone in the home rental game? People talk about it like it's simple but seems like you need to know 100 different things about at least a dozen other things.  Let's crowdsource this so we can all get rich.

Kansas State Basketball / I still like this team

« on: March 24, 2018, 08:39:09 PM »

And will be stoked if everyone is back next year. And possibly two more years of big game stud Sneed? Yes, please.

Kansas State Basketball / The Guantlet: 2018

« on: January 29, 2018, 11:25:52 AM »

Jan. 29   Kansas            8:00 PM
Feb. 3   @ West Virginia    3:00 PM
Feb. 7   @ Texas            7:00 PM
Feb. 10   Texas Tech    7:00 PM

My guess is come February 11 we are going to have a pretty good idea of the Brucecats' NCAA tournament outlook.  What do we need to do here?  Is 4-0 achievable?  2-2 enough to keep the hype train moving?  These are not rhetorical questions because I have pretty LBBIQ.

Essentially Flyertalk / Nannies (LEGALLY)

« on: December 27, 2017, 06:10:45 PM »

Looking into paying a nanny above board and Uncle Sam seems to really want to make it difficult.  Anyone have experience paying a nanny according to the rules (withholding social security & medicare, + paying unemployment taxes)?

Essentially Flyertalk / Top 5 (or 10) Christmas Movies

« on: December 14, 2017, 09:37:01 PM »

Watching Christmas Vacation and realizing I’ve already had this convo with at least a dozen people. So what’s your top 5 Christmas movies? And by that I mean the ones you would be most disappointed about if you didn’t see them this Christmas.

Kansas State Football / Super Saturday

« on: October 30, 2017, 08:59:31 AM »

Just checked the schedule and this is probably the best football weekend in the Big 12 this year.

KSU plays a beatable TTU team to hopefully notch its first win against a p5 team that is not a complete joke. -- 11:00 AM, FS1

Something has to give when Baylor and KU play for rights to claim bottom-feeder dominance in the conference for 2017. -- 11:00 AM, FS Regional (I think it's on TV?)

ISU looks to keep its Big 12 darling bandwagon rolling against a beatable but hungry WVU. -- 2:30 PM, ESPN 2

The Longhorns face a tough test against a reeling TCU team in their quest to keep improving throughout Herman’s first season. -- 6:15 PM, ESPN

And of course OU and OSU will decide who the Big 12 puts its hopes in for a playoff team. -- 3:00 PM, FS1

What games will you be watching?

Edit: updated with game times and channels.

The New Joe Montgomery Birther Pit / Taxes (GOP 2017 edition)

« on: October 18, 2017, 03:39:40 PM »

Seems like as good a time as any to kick this off in its own thread. Should be a pretty good event. Even though Cruz has one of the most punchable faces in Congress he’s a good debater.

Kansas State Football / I believe

« on: October 10, 2017, 09:26:36 AM »

that we are probably not a very good team this year. However, I think we still have a good shot against #1 Big 12 team TCU this Saturday. 20-17 Cats.

Kansas State Football / Sky's the Limit

« on: October 07, 2017, 10:09:05 PM »

We should go all in on Skylar at this point. Team simply isn't shaping out like anyone hoped. Sky is the future.

Essentially Flyertalk / College Savings Plans

« on: July 25, 2017, 11:10:40 PM »

Has anyone messed with a 529 plan or any other type of college savings plan?  I'm especially intrigued by the 529 "prepaid tuition" plan, although it sounds kinda crazy to me.

Kansas State Basketball / What Am I Cheering for Now? Need to Know ASAP

« on: February 28, 2017, 11:16:58 PM »

With ADJC out, it seems practically a certainty that oscar is gone next year either way.  That being the case, should I still be in BID mode hoping we lose out and seal his fate, or cheer for the kats to rattle off two straight and sneak into the Tournament?

Asking for a friend.

Kansas State Football / Ahearn Fund

« on: February 15, 2017, 08:34:09 PM »

About 1-2 times a year I get bugged from people who are in town and want to tell me about what is going on in K-State athletics.  Does anyone actually meet with these people?  Is it the complete waste of time I think it is?

Kansas State Basketball / How much of a contract extension has oscar earned?

« on: February 04, 2017, 04:20:45 PM »

I don't know how to make surveys.

Essentially Flyertalk / The OA

« on: January 16, 2017, 08:41:37 PM »

Has anyone else seen this show on Netflix?  I'm only one episode in, but during that episode they show footage of K-State playing Texas and act like they are two fictional teams from nowheresville.  Even crazier is that they focus on Collin Klein who is supposed to be some guy named Homer Roberts (despite the fact you can clearly see "C. Klein" on his jersey).  What is going on?

Essentially Flyertalk / Refinancing

« on: October 25, 2016, 12:47:25 PM »

Good idea or great idea?  Never done it before.  Interest rates probably not going to get much lower during my lifetime.  What kind of slick bank tricks should I be on the lookout for?

Essentially Flyertalk / Vitamix

« on: October 22, 2016, 09:40:55 AM »

Thoughts? Is it really that much better than the $40 blender I've had since college? Also, why are there like a thousand different models?

Overrated?

Essentially Flyertalk / Early Retirement

« on: May 15, 2016, 05:56:38 PM »

Is a recent passion of mine (though I'm nowhere near). It seems to be turning into a pretty popular topic of discussion.  I've enjoyed reading the popular posts on this blog: http://www.mrmoneymustache.com/

Anyone done it successfully?

The New Joe Montgomery Birther Pit / Gender Issues

« on: May 05, 2016, 10:22:51 AM »

Wait, so is he like a woman who became a man but likes women? Or a woman who became a man and likes men? Which one is gay?
