    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    Parents who's idea of taking their kids trick-or-treating is to follow along side of them in their car. Fucking up traffic all over the neighborhood way worse than all the kids running around. Most of them are fatasses in minivans. Get out and walk with your kids, you could use the exercise.

    Got my 6P a couple of hours ago, so far the camera is amazing even in low light. Can't believe the responsiveness from pushing the shutter button to the phone actually taking the picture, nearly instant in most conditions. I've only done indoor-at-night like light so far but pictures are clear...

    I use ziplocks for more delicate items like fish, but yeah, get a food saver. Can either go to Costco or local butcher and buy meat in bulk, vacuum-seal everything then go straight from your freezer to your sous-vide bath.

    Assuming PPR? If so Woodhead looks like a must start over Murray regardless of matchup at this point. I think I'd play Decker over Murray in the flex based on the matchup even though I generally like getting RB's in the flex if possible.

    PPR or standard scoring? Assuming you are playing 2 WR's? It looks like swapping Bennett for Green in your lineup is basically a wash, you lose 1-2 PPG by dropping Cooper, so how many PPG's will you be gaining by adding Ingram over your current starting RB's? Generally speaking I'd say...

    I believe in safe, steady points so I think you go Dalton till Roethlisberger gets a game or two under his belt. Dalton is currently the #2 ranked QB by avg PPGs, so not like you have a huge dropoff even if Roethlisberger is 100%.

    Grats man! Man, I have a very easy to deal with well behaved baby but I cannot imagine how much I'd be pulling out my hair trying to deal with three of her at once. Especially when they all wake up and need stuff at different times.

    Sounds like they've come up with a more reasonable explanation than "alien mega-structure!" or "ummm... I guess it COULD be comet debris" for the strange dimming around KIC 8462852. That 'alien megastructure' might be a lopsided star - Business Insider TL;DR could be caused by planets orbits...

    Currently have Travis Benjamin in my flex (PPR). Not sure if Johnny Football getting the start hurts or helps him. Also have Hyde (@StL), Amendola (Mia-Thur), McFadden (Sea), or I suppose C.J. Anderson (GB) I could slip in there instead. Thoughts?

    Tool might eventually release a new album someday

    I'm not sure why this suddenly is a story now. He's been doing a ton of press for the new Puscifer album and in pretty much every one he has a very curt response once the inevitable Tool question comes up. He's pretty much been this way since Lateralus actually. I truly think he wishes he...

    I assume you are referring to Devonta and not Josh? On the surface that trade looks like a pretty big win for you but it will really come down to who you have to plug in at WR in place of those guys you gave up. Just swapping Freeman in for Hill nets you around 18 more points-per-game.

    I don't see how your are sitting Hopkins or Allen. You only play one WR? In PPR Hopkins is the #2 overall scorer right now, #3 if you go by avg-per-game. Yeah, you don't sit that.

    Same here, feel really lucky. My daughter has 8 teeth now and the worst we had were a few restless nights. And by restless I mean she might have woken up and moaned for 5-10 minutes before falling back asleep like once a week. My daughter stopped using a pacifier on her own well before...

    Can confirm, boudoir photos are not just a fat-chick thing. I think fat chicks are just more likely to post them everywhere while stomping around yelling "real women have curves!" and "#everyshapeisbeatiful" hoping to win the praise of SJWs since normal dudes are usually just going to call...
