why would anyone want to bring Baylor along?

Ok, Texas Tech, TCU, Ok State, pick your poison.

My point is, I hate to see more deserving schools get the shaft while Vanderbilt rides the wave - while adding Texas/OU money to the kitty.

You know what?  Fuck off drew.  If you can't see how this reads as condescending, then you're not nearly as discerning as I thought you were.

I think I'm being baited by these two.  But just for good measure, here's what condescension looks like.  I'll mention no names.

"I'm 100% comfortable with my opinion being better than yours."

If you had called me out as being condescending, I wouldn't have denied it.

How ya like THEM apples?

I used to tell my reports in performance reviews that they were contentious.

I don't agree with your take, I have a difference of opinion, and you say something demeaning like that?  Why?


You can take it back, or you can continue to act like a complete dick about this.




listen, @utee94 , if you;ve got a problem with @Drew4UTk , just come out and say it. don't pent it up inside.

this is dripping with sarcasm, if it's not apparent. lol

you longhorns really are a whiny lot who takes everything as a slight... or sometimes use words you've only got a slight grip on like 'condescending' ....

I refer to this as Texans being a bit too sensative

it's not meant to be a slight or derogatory

some folks are just more sensative than others on message boards

the new term for this I think I've understood properly is "snowflake", but it's seems a bit offensive to me, so I don't use that new fashionable term.

I've become more direct in my old age.  I find it liberating.

But don't forget I'm the GD cnnsi.com 1999 Internet Nice Guy and if you don't like that, you can suck it.

it's possible, I might garner more votes than you if there was an election this year

I've become less direct IMOA I think, mostly in the sense of "I don't respect you enough to give you my real thoughts" day to day.

Fortunately, I'm not afflicted with acquaintances who annoy me these days.  Retirement solved most of that problem.

I'll tell the story of my official retirement party someday.

Anyone that would vote for you over me can suck it, too!

Snowflakes are people who are bitching about a different topic than I am.

What are "snowflakes"?  I think we see them on occasion around here, they fall to the ground and disappear.

All I can say is we didnt have snowflakes when I went to UT

You were either for the war or against it

You were either a hippy or a frat rat

You were either for Frank Irwin or against him

but nobody needed a special quiet place where nobody bothered you

now I understand Austin is getting more and more of them

sad really


They won't let me give blood anymore. The burnt orange color scares the hell out of the doctors.
