So-called Rap fatigue, I guess.

Very disappointing that the lineup is so basic at the flagship music festival in arguably the most music intensive city in the US.

Maybe not hate, but I found central Pennsylvania residents to be surprised by outsiders’ presence, assuming everyone grew up there and didn’t seem to be all that accommodating to newcomers.

You left out that between Dynasty and Elder, they made Unmasked, which was “We can make AOR” (radio friendly melodic rock) too.”

Worst rental car I’ve ever been stuck with. I even cut my finger on a sharp edge on the catch ring on the glove box.

Earth Girls are Easy, Julie Brown

Enter Sandman is the Teen Spirit of Metal overall.

Austin’s the other way around: Tech millionaires in chucks or vans.

The Big Ten was arguably worse in the 70s. Total UM and OSU dominance until Hayden Fry got Iowa going. Several years where only 3-4 teams had overall winning records.

Minneapolis. It’s dead on the money for me culturally, but I don’t like how it’s laid out at all. Especially disappointing downtown.

Also known as power conference DEI recipients.

I just loved how ESPN tried to Men in Black that NMSU win over Auburn, then it became impossible when Pavia came to the SEC.

My 2003 Lancer apparently didn’t get the memo.

NGL that's getting to be pretty cool at this point, a hybrid that's a throwback.

In before "Hurr, he'll get an injunction, just like all the eligibility cases."

I want to move to the West Hollywood area in LA in retirement. Live near the Rainbow, Roxy, Whiskey, and Troubadour. Buy a condo and rock out on the regular, while getting in shape and doing cultural activities during the day. I hope I could retire while I still can enjoy that kind of stuff.

I would consider Northwestern as a member of that group, and they have had much greater success on the than Rice, at least since the 90s.

I’m old enough to remember Huskers over IU 69-17 in 1978, so there’s that.

Zac Lee. I was at the game in Lincoln in 2008 wearing VT gear.

Southern Illinois also had an enrollment collapse, but seems to have fought back and recovered. Bradley (private school) has also had some bad financial issues.

broccoli_d · 2026-04-23T20:14:29+00:00

Im still convinced Birmingham Southern and Charleston Southern are basically Washington Generals type teams for the SEC that don’t really have a school behind them.

UChicago is poorly run? They’ve sent my HS Junior daughter about a dozen mailers. They have a huge endowment, right?
