I will say it is nice to see Dax not caping up for the lazy TexAgs poster this one time.

81 yr old dude gets phone scammed and decides to shoot the Uber driver the scammer sent to collect the money
I'm not a regular Uber user, how did this scammer manage to get an Uber driver to go to a residence to "pickup a package"?
apparently the passenger can be a parcel and the drop off destination can be the post office or ups store etc. Not sure if that's a common use for uber but man, if i was an uber driver i would absolutely decline what appears to be running someone's errands.
I like a little break, but that was a bit too much. Great idea for a sketch.Same. I think the sketch would have been a lot funnier without that much breaking but still enjoyed it overall. Also why the heck did Bevis not have an underbite?
Are you saying that your cost is for the generic version? Cause if so that doesn’t really seem like a pharmaceutical POS thing. It must be incredibly hard to make if a bunch of competitors aren’t willing to make a version for even half as much.The drug was first approved in 1998(although it’s still not approved for my condition, only 2 medications are and the second was only approved this past Halloween) and I do get the generic version of it.Certainly the thing will go generic right?After 20 years or whatever. But there are so many big problems with our medical system that can be fixed by legislation that seems like a pretty poor consolidation.

Many people are saying Trump fell asleep in court today. It remains unclear if he's just a feeble, old, low-T loser or if his own legal team drugged him to finally get him to STFU.

Precision is needed in professional environments like law or research and totally understandable. Everyday common speech though? Get over yourself imho.I have a similar peeve for people who correct something grammar/usage wise despite knowing exactly what you meant, which is really the whole point of language if you think about it.
The best example of this are people who insist that you cannot end a sentence with a preposition (which often makes sentences more convoluted) while simultaneously refusing to use the Oxford comma.
fun news, the Grammar Police have recently issued a ruling that it's actually fine to end a sentence in a preposition. I guess the whole "no ending a sentence in a prepo" comes from latin-based languages, which english is not, so like, its actually fine. Wish they would have issued that ruling when i was in high school and having to write lots of papers.
Crap I really need to see this movieD2 also mentioned that his new company is the type to acquire other companies. Which seems true because they have all of these random ass locations on their website. So, another funny part of the call was him mentioning the possibility of the new company acquiring the old company. He said, "and if that happens, it's like, 'COO, you're gone. CFO, gone. Don't need you any more.'" I was thinking to myself, "oh, you've been thinking about this for a while." 100% chance that he suggests this idea to the new company.for this to come full circle, i hope you work for him and his new company acquires one of the other companies that employ you. everyone will be asking you if you’ve met the other chum1 yet. you’ll have to join team meetings with two different laptops and only be able to turn on one camera. this will turn into a movie.

My response is MEHI'm torn bc there are parts of that post I agree with and then the next sentence is a 180 sucker punch but still doesn't negate the parts I agree with. This is a pickle.I really don’t see it as anything other than an upper middle class dude desperately wanting to be a victim of society.
The taxation stuff I get. Not about the poor but the rich. Like I, me personally, I paid more in taxes than Jeff bezos, Elon musk, and Bill Gates combined. Which seems backwards. Also I hate the line jumpers. Like if you're too important to have to wait your turn like everyone else then you can actually eat my entire ass. The rest of it I agree is just this man's desperate attempt to be able to call himself the victim of something.

Unless he just hasn’t secured whatever salary bump/extension he was hoping to get from Baylor yet.I bet Kentucky gets Drew.
I agree. I wouldn't expect Drew to flirt with an offer this much otherwise.
What would Jesus do?Pay to Caesar what is Caesar’s, ima get mine.
Prolly secure that bag.
Invincible S2 just ended. Don't really mind they split it all up, they even made a hilarious self jab joke in one of the episodes about how long animation takes. Though I will say the season finale, while good, really spent a ton of time setting up things, so it dragged I feel like. Still excited for S3, whenever it drops.Yeah this is why I hate finding out about a series midway through the first season. That finale didn’t feel like a finale at all.
Interesting, wikipedia lists the population of Storrs at 15K. I had always assumed that it was situated inside an east coast megalopolis.
Edit: some more crazy UConn facts:

Obviously not saying it’s his fault. It just seemed obvious that Purdue had no backup plan.Purdue decided to live or die by Edey but he was not up to the task this time.
Bro had 37 & 10, wasn't his fault
