    NHL 2016-17 Season

    How drunk were you when making that post? Sid, Kane, Eichel, and goalie for fuck's sake! I don't know what stats count in your pool, but I don't know why you'd be surprised that Benn went in the top 3. He's been at or near the top of the league the last couple seasons for points, and he gets a...

    The 90's Thread

    Yeah, the early to mid 90's produced so many amazing Canadian rock albums and bands. It's almost bizarre looking back on it. Very few of them managed to make it outside of Canada, at all. Yet pretty much every single one of them was ten times the band that Nickelback is, and yet those assholes...

    That would be very, very stupid and I really doubt that they'd take that way out. Not to mention that within the show itself, we are obviously shown other character's perspectives on things that Elliott couldn't possibly be aware of. Like Dom's late night bean flicking while listening to Alexa...

    100 Greatest TV Shows of All Time (Rolling Stone Magazine)

    I don't watch much TV at all. I was always aware of the Sopranos because it was so big in popular culture, just never got around to watching it. The Wire was much less pop-culture relevant, but I did have a friend or two who raved about it. I'll add them to the list, along with about 100 Steam...

    100 Greatest TV Shows of All Time (Rolling Stone Magazine)

    Guess I need to saddle up and watch the Wire and Sopranos at some point. As has been said, I really don't get why they'd mix in talk shows with drama/comedy. Why the fuck don't you just throw in Sports Center and various sporting events while you're at it?

    Mr. Robot

    I don't agree that it's a massive disappointment at all. It moved the story line along, albeit sometimes the pacing was a bit uneven. The performances of all the main characters is phenomenal. As I said before, I don't get why some people are so goddamn picky about the show. It's not perfect...

    That's more fraud than theft, then. I guess my disgust for your actions is somewhat tempered by my disgust for the US's financial system. Thanks for the honesty.

    I've trumpeted "bullshit Marxist crap"? First of all, try not using two different words for excrement one word apart if you want to sound intelligent. As far as pushing "Marxist" views, where and when? You're a fucking moron. I own a business, for fuck's sake. I'm pro business, trade, and...

    NHL 2016-17 Season

    Lots of people saying that the TNA/SWE game yesterday was one of the best hockey games played in decades. Unfortunately I only caught half the first period while eating lunch, but it was ridiculously entertaining.

    That's pretty decent looking, but simply too big for what I'm considering. I'm not going to be storing boxes and boxes, just a couple dozen at most. Not, uh, 400. I'd be looking at something that sits on a counter/shelf. I did get a small wooden one, no glass, as a door prize. But it just kind...

    That's what I use around the office. Only downside is that sometimes they go wonky and leak ink fucking everywhere. The other day while reading a bunch of boring shit I absent mindedly linked the clip on the lid to the clip on a mechanical pencil (Pentel P205), and was spinning the Uni-ball...

    We're arguing about the disenfranchisement of the vast majority of the population when the proponent is a guy who admitted in another thread to being a professional thief, bragging that he'd be on the FBI radar. Far as I'm concerned, fuck disenfranchising him. Just put a bullet in him. I fucking...

    I had some IT guy who was quoting on replacing our office computers about 10 years ago try to recruit me. He was a real fucking greaseball, and just randomly brought up one meeting that he was a mason, started talking about how cool it was, and that I would make a great one or some shit. Dude...

    2007 is not relatively recent. The article I linked is regarding a meta study reviewing 87 previous studies, published in March 2016, and encompasses an order of magnitude more deaths in total than the one you linked: http://www.jsad.com/doi/10.15288/jsad.2016.77.185

    There's definitely a distinction in Portland between the genuinely homeless, mentally ill or addicted type people and the kids who just hang out on the street to be cool before heading back to their nice home in the suburbs. But there was a LOT of both.

    Nah. Like I said, I'm just super sensitive to odors during sex, for whatever reason. Any person's ass crack isn't going to smell like roses if they last showered 18 hours before, or whatever, no matter how good their hygiene is.

    That statement was obviously hyperbole, in terms of not actually being able to make decisions for themselves. But I'd say that many academics, especially in the math/physics departments but by no means exclusive to them, can be very, very odd ducks and can be so focused on their narrow scope of...

    Picking lifetime income or bullshit IQ levels is every bit as arbitrary as the ones you outlined. 3 million? Why not 500k? Or 30 million? How did you arrive at 3 million, exactly? Oh right, you arbitrarily picked it. And as far as IQ goes, as has been mentioned IQ can be total bullshit. There...

    Yeah, pretty underrated movie. The whole Matt Damon, Scotty Doesn't Know shit is hilarious too: I wouldn't rank it anywhere in my top 10 or 20, but Sex Drive was pretty fucking funny too and along similar "coming of age" movie tropes. Especially the unrated one that put as many big, black...

    Good to hear. I've felt the two new albums have been a bit lacking because Cantrell is too far forward and signing most of the lyrics. He's a decent signer, but he's pretty vanilla. I saw them live 2-3 years ago, and Duvall was pretty damn good when they were playing the older shit that was more...

    There are definitely some pussies that look better than others. But honestly, if I think back to the 20-30 women I've slept with, the only one whose I can recall is the most recent long term ex. The others, I have no idea what theirs looked like. It's way the fuck down the list on things that I...

    The kind of hilarious thing about the World Cup format is if there is another one in 4 years (in Edmonton, most likely, or EDM/CGY if they get their shit together and get a rink built as well), McDavid would still be on North America. Fuck is he good already.

    I think that it's pretty much impossible that Elliot was Tyrell, given what we were shown in the first season.

Probably similar to a lot of the other west coast cities: great if you are rich and can afford to live downtown, not so great if you aren't. The...
