    Most doors are off the same boat and they just put brand names on them after they get here from China. I did look into some made in the USA options online and they were only 20% more so I was going to do it until I found out that it was going to be $1000 to ship them here. My brother got the...

    I had high hopes for these. The picture looks great and the actual product looked pretty similar once I got it made. The breading was good, sauce was pretty standard buffalo. The chicken closely resembled wet toilet paper in appearance and texture. Disgusting. Worse yet, I got the "value...

    Honestly, I'm not sure the 2x spicy is that different. It didn't seem much hotter to me.

    Is it like macaroni and cheese type sauce? I love the regular hot chicken and even the 2x spicy but I haven't tried that one.

    Just spent about 3 hours trying to order new doors for the house, including 40 minutes on the phone with some poor home depot employee making her run back and forth to the door aisle and getting SKUs for me because they wouldn't come up on the website for some reason. I have mixed feelings...

    Chanur hates the 9ers because he's a closet Seahawks bandwagoner who pretends to still like the Chargers for message board cred.

    2020 Academy Awards - No Willem Dafoe The Lighthouse nom

    I'm so out of touch. I haven't seen one movie that was nominated. I need to at least watch Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, The Irishman, Ford vs. Ferrari, and Joker.

    Some friends of ours did the thing where the birthday kid gets to pick what's for dinner. Their youngest daughter always asked for chicken marsala even though the rest of the family didn't like it. After a couple years they made the chicken marsala for her and something else for the rest of...

    If anything they should fire the GM for not putting some talent around Russell Wilson. Without him they are garbage.

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    I definitely think the niners match up better vs. the Titans. After they held Dalvin Cook to 18 yards, I think they will be able to slow down Henry as well. Maybe not 18 yards but not 180 either and I don't think Tannehill is much better than Cousins, especially vs that pass rush. Mahomes...

    Well, I got everything I asked for. Now I wonder if it was the right wish. Even after this game the Packers don't scare me that much, but I'm a little scared of both the Chiefs and the Titans.

    I recently found out about the instant pot + ice bath method and the first two times I did it they peeled great but the last batch I did the egg is half gone by the time you get it peeled. I'm going to keep doing them that way but it totally failed last time.

    I miss going to Jack's Stack. It was the best thing about occasionally going to KC for work. These weren't bad. I've had them before but always microwaved them. They're better out of the oven. I have a hard time believing that the hot dogs are all beef. They seem like regular shitty pork...

    There are 100 tips for making boiled eggs easier to peel. In my experience they are all bullshit except for using old eggs. The fresher the eggs are, the harder they are to peel.

    Best movie of the decade ?

    This is just wrong. There have been lots of bad movies based on King books, but lots of good ones too. You'll get that when there's been 40+ movies made based on one guy's books. https://www.theguardian.com/culture/2019/aug/22/the-best-stephen-king-movies-ranked

    It depends on how much you like mayo. Bacon King has more mayo on it. Flamethrower burger at Dairy Queen beats them both though.

    None of this is for resale value. This is for me to use. Never understood people making decisions about the house they live in based on resale value and not what they want in their own damn house but this house will never be sold in any case. The recessed wall is going to literally cost like...

    As someone who likes to smoke ribs, instant pot ribs are the best thing I've ever gotten out of my pressure cooker. Are they as good as BBQ ribs? Not even close, but considering you can make them in an hour with almost no skill, they're pretty fucking good.

    That's bone broth. It's kind of gross when it's cold but if you warm it up that will melt into deliciousness. It's a feature, not a bug.

    It's an audacious claim, but if you're the best in the world and you know it, I think if you want to call yourself the world champ then it's up to the rest of the world to prove you wrong.

    Yeah I think my sub is definitely the weak link in my setup. I'm not going to upgrade it right away, but I'll leave room in the cabinet for a significantly bigger one. I'm making the recess big enough for a 100" TV also. My 60" is going to look pretty small in there, but I want room to grow.

    I'm sure if a football team from another country wanted to claim that they were better than the superbowl champs, they could contest the "world champ" assertion, but they know how it would turn out.

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    It makes sense that second marriages are more likely to break up than first. A lot of the people who are capable of living with someone never make it to their second marriage, let alone their third. People who are twice divorced and want to get married a third time are probably nuts.

    I heard someone ask Willie Mcginest about the Brady to the Chargers thing and he said that Gisele hates LA. Maybe she could deal with Tom taking a 1 year deal there for 30 million or something, but I thought that was an interesting angle on it.

    Yeah, if you miss it's not a big deal since you're going to hang the TV in front of it anyway. The 16" on center thing should find it. Sometimes you can tap on the drywall and sort of tell where it is too.

    The only time I get pizza hut is once in a while for lunch because they have a buffet. I loved it when I was a kid but now I see it as pretty much Little Caesar's quality at twice the price. I'd rather pay 3 times the price and get a decent pizza.

    The crap is coming off pretty well. Got the bedrooms done and the hallway and the dining room. Kitchen and living room left. It's making a huge mess and I decided I'm going to hang plastic in the kitchen before I scrape it to try to keep it out of the cabinets and appliances.

    I don't reheat pizza because I love it cold. When I make a digiorno, I always cut it into 8 pieces, eat 5 for dinner and put the other 3 in the fridge. The next morning I slather the 3 cold slices in hot sauce and get down to breakfast.
