Sperrys & Polos Winter 2016: God Rest You Merry, Preppy Men

I'm not a liberal, but I also didn't vote Trump.


Your thoughts on the travel ban aside, he certainly cannot stand behind the idea that it's blocking extremists from coming into the country when the one country all of the 9/11 terrorists came through isn't on it.

Yeah I think that's totally ridiculous.

Speaking of interior decorating, I finally moved to my new apartment in Austin and I need some advice on filling it up. I even did a tour of it

There are like 9,000 other threads for this discussion. I know it's been slow in here lately, but let's not light this Molotov cocktail please.

Looks great, brah! What size did you go with? Going to pick one up when they have their next sale to offset the exchange rate

[KillerBoots_Man]

So I don't know alot about suits and chit. How well does dry cleaning work? I'm asking because this girl wants me to wear my best suit pants to her sorority date party which is going to consist of 150+ girls and their dates all drunk af in one bar then hitting other bars afterward. Would it be a major no no to wear my best suit pants to this or could they be saved if something were to get on them?

Keep in mind, he got this list of seven countries from the Obama administration, after they had deemed the vetting system for these seven specific countries was severely lacking. I'm not sure how they got to those seven, perhaps Saudi Arabia already has a stricter vetting protocol precisely because of 9/11. Look at how many of the European terrorist attack perpetrators came from those seven countries though, so there is clearly an issue with them.

Not saying he's 100% right or wrong for only listing those seven, just posing a possible explanation (and I'd agree that he should have clarified it, though it was stated that the Obama administration already highlighted these seven, he just acted on the intelligence that was already present).



Yeah, not the best place, sorry. Just saw Srben's gif and got giddy.

Austin just got ranked #1 in the Best Place to live in the U.S. Denver was #1

U.S. News & World Report says Austin's average temperature in the winter is 50.6 degrees, compared to Denver's chilly 31.1 degrees.

http://www.kvue.com/news/local/us-ne...n-us/402438152

Usually a warmer climate all year. December is usually the rainy season in Texas. Austin is the most liberal of the cities in state of Texas because you have University of Texas and it is also the capitol of the state.

It has a Socal vibe in some parts, especially South Austin. It is quite an active city. Everyone is about their fitness it seems. I went to the oldest Gold's in Austin last night called "The Dungeon" and a lot of bodybuilders frequent it.

There's a lot of tech companies here. Indeed, Oracle, ***, Dell, Rackspace, Silicon Graphics so a lot of people come for jobs with those companies. Beautiful people, pretty friendly. I wish it was more diverse tbh but it's pretty fun. I know some people that moved here from San Antonio and I used to work with.

The housing market is starting to cost more and more though because it is becoming more attractive. Same thing happened to Denver too. A lot of influx of people from California moving here and raising prices.

Maybe I'll make it home or else I might move back to Atlanta but so far so good

Smart tie knot in your Avi here Braw

Am well mirin for sure!

Are there any songs that just make you cry out of sheer beauty? Cuz this is certainly one....'THE OA' is the best show I've seen since 'True Detective' season 1, and it's being reinstated for another season. The ending literally made me bawl. I have been following Brit Marling and Zal Batmanglij for a long time now...it is incredible what they've achieved together. I cannot wait for season 2 and recommend 'THE OA' to anyone and everyone!

My city in Arkansas got ranked #5, been getting much more love from lists like this recently and it's great to see.

That list is fukin bullchit lmao, they have my city San Jose as number three. There's no way San Jose is the third best city to live in lolol. Maybe they have the rest of that list right, but San Jose is not nearly that good. Not to mention the cost of living here is among the highest in the country.

People are moving out of California because this state is in shambles and butt fuking its residents. Then those people try to turn the new city/region they moved to into what they left lol, makes zero sense. I'll very likely be moving out of state when I finish school.

Sounds like you're digging the new scenery though (both from posts in here and MFC).

I'm actually flying out of Frisco to Denver next weekend. I'm going ice climbing over the four day weekend in Ouray, Colorado. I'm stoked just to finally visit Colorado alone. I've never entered the state and after I visited Oregon last summer for the first time, Colorado was my number one state I wanted to visit. I won't spend much time in Denver, but will have at least one night to check it out.

Van Morrison does it for me. I was blessed to get to see him with my mom and sister late last year and it was everything I thought it would be.

I'm a sucker for violins and that song you posted was awesome. It's just epic. Van has a lot of violins and violas in his songs and I can't get enough. He can have numerous instruments in one song but they all flow together.

This is my favorite song by him, which makes it my favorite song of all lol





Another one of my favorites, this song has like two or three songs in one and it all just flows wonderfully. As I said, I'm a sucker for violins, especially when paired with a piano, and both of these Van songs have them.





Sometimes We Cry is another epic song, he literally doesn't write a bad song. I could post dozens of his songs so I'll stop now lol

What a beauty song! God I love his voice <3 I listened to Van throughout my childhood, but I never heard this song before! Love it.

'Days like this' was the song I listened to when I took a break from pounding out my uni essays lol. VAN IS THE MAN

It was an amazing night for sure.

Van the man haha, I can't get enough of him. Days Like This always gets me going lol. There is a song of his for any possible mood.

As far as making it feel like home, pictures (obviously), art that has some significance to either of you, or things that remind you of where you're from. A good compromise might be something related to a sports team you like but that isn't gaudy. For example:

Where can I find similar pictures online? Do they have other schools too?

Here you go brah

[RThoe]

If you guys want to have any canvas prints made, go check out Costco. Just had one of my favorite pictures done and they did a great job. The quality is great. The iconic picture of US soldiers landing on D-Day. Reminder to suck it up



Forgot to add, I believe it's like 32x18 and came out to just over 50 bucks.
