Re: Images (now possibly NSFW)
Maybe so, but if Snoop opened a Vietnamese restaurant called “Pho Shizzle”, I’d be there the next day. Get thee to Seattle! (It isn't Snoop, but still!) We were in Seattle the past few days. I saw this place and told my wife, "Hey! Swamp reference!" https://i.pinimg.com/originals/4d/47/b5...

Re: The Official Pussification of America Thread (Mostly Sports)
It's a funny thing. Football makes you have a great military, Aussie rules football makes you have a lesser military, Rugby makes your military great in the 19th century, and Futbol, well, the evidence suggests it might be connected to terrorism.

On a similar note, I was using the restroom at the airport today, and it never fails to surprise (and disappoint) me how many men leave a restroom without washing their hands.

Re: Random Thoughts About Thoughts Random
I used to golf regularly. I come from a family of serious golfers. But one day I had an epiphany. Golf didn’t relax me . It usually frustrated me. A sinkhole of time and lots of expense for something that brought more displeasure than pleasure. So I haven’t played now for ten years and don’t miss it...

Re: Can't always eat right - Official junk food thread
If you cook for yourself and avoid most boxed/premade stuff, you could add salt after cooking and still be like 4x better than someone who goes the other way. #saltsplained Truth.

Re: Can't always eat right - Official junk food thread
For health reasons, I've pretty much given up salt, as far as adding it after the food is cooked. Most Americans consume way too much of it.
This just in - salt substitute is a really poor substitute, especially on popcorn. So, there's that.

Sure, but if he wants to be a Yankee (strongly assumed), he can sign in the offseason and we keep all other assets. And while he's clearly better than Andujar (and Drury), its not nearly the type of upgrade you'd see from acquiring a starter. If they think they can extend him, the argument for gett...
