Notice a pattern? At least for these kids’ grandfathers, the moustache never dies. These kids dads all have the standard goatee/Van Dyke that they believe hides their triple chin. (It doesn’t.)

Sadly, sadly accurate. Some of the stupidity is profound.

So they stop doing all that during the season?

sigh.

Because I don’t buy the PR hype I hate Pittsburgh?

The RC/drone question is weird. My father-in-law buys a one-stroke engine, and then builds a plane around it. They’re pretty impressive, actually.

You probably are maybe just old enough to remember the last spasm of hype that was driven by Richard Florida, who endlessly yammered on about what Pittsburgh needed to attract members of the “creative class” such as himself.

Oh, God. Even your trolling has the faux elan of the hackiest PR douche.

The toughest concept for many is that a single synchronic moment of upswing does not mean the reversal of a protracted diachronic process.

I’m there multiple times a year.

Sure, absolutely. I can admit that some elements are better.

Oh. My. God.

Ah, but there’s more than just downtown, isn’t there? Once you get out of the city, the real misery begins.

As someone who grew up there, and then left, and will remain bitter until the day he dies, I kindly remind you that your post is absolute bullshit.

This is one of the best sports-related euphemisms I’ve heard in a while.

Why do you hate yourself?

What about tears of laughter caused by Schadenfreude? That’s not exactly happiness. Because my soul is made of dogshit, and because I’m old and cranky and hate “fun” and/or showboating, I laughed until I cried when I saw this:

Typical replies: But you’ve never been to Texas!. Again, more binarism. More either/or.

Oh, the sweet, simplistic binarism of the conservative “mind”. Your first assumption is “Yer either with us or agin’ us”. In an infinite universe comprising subtle variations and almost endless gradations, it’s straight to either/or.

The victim should have had a concealed carry permit, right? He could have protected himself, like UT Austin students.
