    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    It's not illegal everywhere to turn into the lane and use it to merge. Where do you live that it's illegal? Am genuinely curious because my experience is that it's been legal more places I've been than it hasn't. I don't find them to be that dangerous aside from the fact bad drivers are going...

    My future in-laws have both the cable company's modem with phone shit they pay a lease for and one they bought. The leased hardware looks to be over 10 years old, so my guess is they weren't getting very good wireless because it sucks, so went out and got conned by some idiot at Office Depot...

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    Some states have different rules and different curriculum that they teach (that can at times be against technical rules causing confusion). But in most states that I've seen it's a double left turn lane and you're allowed to turn from or into the lane as long as you're turning left. Merging...

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    Almost got hit the other day due to the wave through. I'm pretty careful, made sure both lanes were fully stopped. Oops, couldn't have seen the guy barreling down the center yellow lane. What, that's not a turn lane 300 feet from the intersection, that actually has a break in the yellow line...

    The Walking Dead

    Typing too fast. Was meaning people will realize eye patches aren't just for pirates and governors, but means you'd have one good dark eye for clearing buildings, something that would look dumb so nobody would want in the show, but is on one of the long lists of 'reality' sort of things that...

    The Walking Dead

    The problem is people want cool and meaningful. Not just an eye patch. Carl is shot in the face, a scene or two of feigned tension as they run him to the doctor, make it a motivation for a shoddy plot point in Rick going all Leroy Jenkins, then Carl will wear an eye patch and none of it will...

    The Walking Dead

    Z Nation with TWD budget would be cool. Haven't seen the latest season of Z Nation yet, but the first season was definitely culty and cheesy at times, but sticks pretty well to the rules they set and doesn't do a lot of last minute make-shit-up to explain things. I also find the serious...

    The Walking Dead

    Including GI Joe with his "WHO'S DEANNA?" and "WHO'S NEGAN?" dialog that straight out of a bad RPG dialog tree. The constant side-quest bloat in TWD is very innovative game design, too. Your average RPG has 40 hours of vapid, bloat they call content? Well, TWD has like 5 seasons of content...

    The Walking Dead

    The first rocket wtfasploshun was almost forgivable being TV and that most people don't understand real world explosives aren't nearly as flashy as Michael Bay movies where frag grenades explode in a ball of fire. The second rocket though that was wasted when a match would have sufficed by...

    The Walking Dead

    TWD has become like a bad D&D campaign where the DM is a little too forgiving for the sake of not ruining the entire campaign when someone does something stupid. Okay, your wife is stuck on a rickety wooden platform and doesn't see there's a sturdy catwalk on the reinforced metal wall behind...

    Pretty sure they'll all talk about what happened and she'll be afraid that she was the one to screw the kid up into being the type of fearful ninny that freaks out among zombies. And Rick will do the same because he killed the kid's dad. Etc. It'll be an overblown moralistic point that drags...

    The Walking Dead

    Hard to find shields? You guys are joking, right? Remember that time they took over the prison and made a note of how hard it was to kill a walker wearing riot gear? And the one black guy picked up a riot shield, was like hell yeah, and was then killed off and riot shields went extinct? The...

    The Walking Dead

    I kinda liked Carol and the kids scenes, though. Her scaring the shit out of him was good stuff. Now we're going to get less of the hardened version of Carol as she broods, laments and monologues about the kids death and her hand in it. Perfect opportunity for these writers to get overly...

    The Walking Dead

    Still has the problem for me that when something happens that is supposed to be tense or epic, like the rocket launcher or dues ex machinegun, I don't usually cheer or phew, but usually end up laughing. Even when they're trying really hard to be serious if you aren't laughing at this show most...

    Yeah, guys, the single game they spit into two games you'll have to buy separately will save you money when you buy them together, which is what everyone will do, since it's actually only one game! See, you're not being ripped off nearly as much as you thought!

    NBA 2015-2016 Season thread

    When the Warriors looked weakest in last year's playoffs it was when they were having to lean hard on Curry, which of course teams knew and game planned for. Sure, Iguanadollah stepped his game up and Thompson is a good player, Barnes shaping up to be a good role player, etc, but the Warriors...

    NBA 2015-2016 Season thread

    I guess the argument is Durant would go to the Warriors for the same reason Aldridge went to the Spurs. Individual production may go down, but for the sake of winning (in theory, will have to see how it plays out). And Durant isn't like just adding a Carmelo style super star who would jack up...

    NBA 2015-2016 Season thread

    I think Barnes is a very skilled role player. I don't think he's on the verge of being a breakout star or anything, though. He's skilled enough, smart enough, and works hard enough to not only look really good and contribute meaningfully in the Warriors system. But would probably not look or...

    I love how hard comcast hits consumers with their bit about "fastest, most reliable in-home wifi." I've had to explain to quite a few people that the internet they provide isn't somehow coming into their home primed for wifi. It's all to do with their equipment, which I personally found shitty...

    That was a pretty weak dateline, especially considering they've allegedly been following the story for 10 years and had new info/evidence. There was nothing new except an expert not affiliated with the case nor the crime lab who claims every single blood vial ever taken has a hole in the top...

    Always thought the jurisdictional things were a big red flag. They changed the venue to the neighboring county and then proceeded to bus jurors from the county the venue changed from. And had the Manitowoc sheriff's office declare there's a conflict of interest so they won't be involved in the...

    My theory: Halbach is still alive chained up toothless in Ken Kratz's love dungeon. He'd want her toothless for obvious reasons, and would have been able to plant the teeth for a positive ID.

    That would actually be hilarious, and probably the more entertaining/profitable story for them. Just focus the show on the Dassey confession, leg irons, sweat DNA on the hood that lines up perfectly with the confession, and of course Avery's unwillingness to be a pal by confessing to Kratz so...

    Making a Murderer (Netflix) - New info

    I don't think it's possible to be impartial since Dateline is pretty bad at twisting shit before each commercial break to make it interesting even when a case isn't nearly as confusing or complex as they make it seem. Even if they just present the basic facts people will claim the facts they...

    Anyone recall seeing the cost to the state for the trial and conviction of Avery? I vaguely recall something in the film about an imbalance of funds/means between the prosecution and defense, but not sure if the numbers were ever released for the state. My best guess is a couple million spent...
