I started this thread, but now I have zero motivation to workout. And the Air Force shitcanned the waist measurement from the PT test, so I don't have test anxiety anymore because that was my biggest worry. COVID stopped all PT testing with a projected date to restart of this April. We'll see if it...

I wish I liked those drinks, would save me a ton of money (my vice is the blue M can diet Monster). They just all taste like soda water with a light spritzing of fruit, which in theory sounds good, but in practice, not so much. *it really doesn't help I don't like carbonated water all that much. If ...

The only way I am contributing to this thread is posting the work of others, but cooking bagels by getting them slightly wet and then toasting them whole has changed my life.

Not to derail the discussion but I've ordered standard dress shoes from these guys and been very happy with the price to quality: https://www.beckettsimonon.com/ *BIG DISCLAIMER IT TAKES MONTHS TO GET THE SHOES* Basically they do small batches of orders and then send them out to help keep costs down...

Animaniacs coming in November: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fNCDu4n ... e=emb_logo Probably too new for more than a few people here, but I'm super excited.

I think it's way more useful for more macro analysis than an individual play. "hey this QB threw a bunch of really difficult passes and completed them, maybe the QB is really good and the coordinator sucks" vs the polar opposite "Jimmy Gorappolo last year"

Deadspin was one of the few sports sites where if someone did something wrong/shady, you'd likely actually get the truth from Deadspin. There were a lot of bullshit articles as well, and I wouldn't read it for actual sports analysis, though why your team sucks is fun. Immediately signed up to defect...

If you aren't listening to The Connect you are doing yourself a huge disservice. It helps to have seen the movies, but is hardly necessary. Shea Serrano and Jason Concepcion are hilarious together.

As someone who has built and bought, unless you are going for really high end components, the amount you save building it yourself vs buying usually ends up being somewhere in the vicinity of $150-200 for a $1500 rig. You get to pick the components, and if you get the right motherboard and power sup...

Baklava is top tier dessert hall of fame. Mediocre baklava is better than most well made cakes and any lemon dessert.

So I am organizing my movies, and I wanted to look into some more movies. This is for the hall of very good. If it's on this list: https://www.imdb.com/search/title/?groups=top_250&sort=user_rating it's too good for this list. It's entirely arbitrary, but you should reasonably be able to say &qu...

I wouldn't worry about it too much. Your external IP address is functionally a license plate on a car, but for most residential internet users, it might change more often. Literally every website you visit gets it as info and could be or probably is, storing it.

This is a good read.

I was 14 when the first American Pie movie came out, I was at a golf camp at EWU so we could go to the movies, and we went and saw it, I will never laugh harder in my life, and I am pretty ok with that. surrounded by similar age boys we were all just dying.

So South Korean Baseball is back, and can be streamed for free on Twich.tv/kbo1 Twich.tv/kbo2 Twich.tv/kbo3 Twich.tv/kbo4 and apparently on ESPN (I don't have ESPN at the moment)

Has anyone listened to the new Wire podcast from The Ringer? I've never watched the show and am two episodes in. It sounds like the podcast is one episode at a time, but I'm still scared of spoilers. I think it'd be fun to watch and follow the podcast at the same time. It depends on how you feel ab...

The doc itself is fine, I doubt it would be as big if we weren't so thirsty for something to take our mind off of what's going on. The highlights of Jordan getting buckets in the face of much more hands on defense and through a lot more contact than is legal in today's game is incredible. Are you t...

Pills scare the ever loving hell out of me. Alcohol tastes gross, weed is a pita and stinks, pills though? just take them with some water? I'd be an addict in a heartbeat.
More of a needle guy? Or just freebasing?

Fuck no, that's way too much work, just take the pills.

blundercrush

It’s honestly scary how good these feel. I could absolutely understand getting addicted. Fortunately weed does the trick for me 99 percent of the time. Imagine what 100 of them feel like. Death, unless we worked up to it for years. Just saying. Its rare that I get to participate in group discussion...

I have a chromecast on my TV that up until lately has worked great. Now however, when I try to cast from my Mac to it, the options show up as 'BDP-S6700', not the name of the Chromecast, and it says 'Not Supported'. I can cast to it from my phone with no problems, with it showing up as 'Front Room ...

Saw Birds of Prey last night. It's...enjoyable? I liked it but there are a few caveats: 1) You have to be down with chicks beating the ever living shit out of a bunch of dudes. 2) Margo is mostly fantastic as Harley, the movie breaks the 4th wall a lot with a lot of winks and nods so you feel like y...

I can't speak to the grill options, I can't have one at my apartment. Using an oven and cast iron pan is super simple and most importantly incredibly easy to repeat.

Also the rules allowed people to murder those guys compared to how James Harden is defended. Look I think he is really really really good. One of the greatest shooters of all time. The NBA should absolutely make changes that don't affect just him (2 fouls on 3 pointers) (widen the lane)

That subreddit is completely fucked. Banish those people to the fucking ends of the earth where no one else can see that bullshit. I know we hated MMQB a whole bunch, but even this group wasn't that fucked up about McButterworth himself. Nevermind his family. Bill Simmons is entertaining, not inform...

Oof, sorry Bronto, always sucks to find out there's more wrong under the hood, even if you were willing to do a major renovation. We got pretty lucky with my condo, the roof had already been replaced, and the only thing "bad" was a hot water heater. There was other stuff later outside the ...

Only ever owned a condo. Have minor experience in having contractors rebuild stairs in condo complex. This is my 2 cents

DO NOT BUY A HOUSE YOU HAVE TO DO A MAJOR REMODEL ON. RUN FOR YOUR LIFE.

Way too much money/time/suffering for a major remodel on a house you are living in.

Fun fact about ring cameras, they definitely send your surveillance footage to not only law enforcement, but also give access to a company in Ukraine

The fact that I identify with all of this, and don't imbibe nearly as many liquid calories as some here (you may drink a perfectly socially acceptable amount, if I drink more than 3 beers in a week...it's been a long week) is not great.

Sweet, thanks everyone. It is much appreciated. I will almost certainly avoid most of Las Ramblas.

Fun tip: mild, boring fruit beers (looking at you: apricot and mango) are much better with some Tabasco thrown in.

Realized I forgot to ask this here. Going to Barcelona for a couple weeks. Any tips? Unfortunately I get in literally the day Barcalona plays, and leave the day before they play again, so bad planning on my part. Things worth seeing, either in or around Barcelona is good. Like museums, like cathedra...

For any of the even mildly Starcraft nerds out there...the lack of keyboard use is killing me (It's MUCH faster to build buildings and queue up units and select which units to move/attack with the keyboard in that game). Great blast from the past though.
