    NFL 2017 Offseason - Where does Romo go?

    Yeah, the people who keep citing his stats from last year as proof that this is about the protest obviously didn't watch the games last year. He looked decent in the first half, then fell apart in the second, missing easy throws by a mile. He can perform pretty well as long as he just has to...

    I realize that we're not serious here but in the name of accuracy, the Angus would be the better one. Jersey and Holstein are both dairy cows. They get made into hamburger and "steak" at places like taco bell.

    The "Shit I just bought" thread

    Every time I see one of those things I have a fantasy about cooking pancakes outdoors for 50 people but since that isn't a situation I tend to find myself in, I haven't bought one.

    I think my 6P died yesterday. Worked fine all day, battery died at about 8PM which is not unusual, but I've had it on 4 different chargers now and it just won't charge. Tried cleaning out the plug but it still won't charge.

    Better Call Saul

    He had not only shut off all the breakers but actually pulled them all out of the panel. That would shut off the water heater, furnace, and everything else that is properly wired. His neighbors probably tapped off of his service to power their marijuana grow lights or something.

    I just got into the stuff about people who don't have experience with institutions today. He really goes deep with it but I was never bored at all. Very well done and an idea I have never heard discussed before.

    Listened to the first two episodes based on your recommendation and so far so good. A person might even call it a Hardcore History rip-off but since HH comes out so rarely there's plenty of room for both. Do you know where the name "MartyrMade" comes from? From what I've heard so far it's...

    I usually go to The Verge. I have gotten into that cycle before with my old LG phone. I swear when you get a warranty replacement they just send you someone else's broken phone that they put a bandaid on.

    Poll When you go food shopping do you the pick the checkout isle with the cutest jailbait?

    My dentist in California was this way. He was a pudgy middle aged guy with a moustache but the other 6 people in the office (receptionist, secretary, and all of the hygienists) were all hot blondes. I don't know how you do that.

    FWIW, I tried the sodium citrate mac and cheese in the crockpot thing and it turned out well. It was only in the crockpot on warm for about 2 hours but it wasn't discernibly mushier than when I finished cooking it. I had intended to undercook the pasta and then didn't take it out quick enough...

    Maybe it's because I'm an American but this is what I have been hoping for all along. I thought it was impossible for Elizabeth but they have shown her softening so it could happen, especially if they make it a position where she truly has to choose between her country and her family. I think...

    I don't know why but I haven't hung in with Veep this season. Never hated an episode, but there are 3 unwatched on my DVR and I just don't have the urge to watch them. I've been busy so some other TV is slipping through the cracks but in the past I would have found the time to watch Veep and...

    The Americans

    Action has never been what made this show good. It's a character study about a family in a particular situation where there are a ton of unique moral conundrums and how that affects their mental health and relationships. That is what the show is and always has been about with the cold war as a...

    Credit Score Question

    I don't know anything about credit score massaging and I don't borrow money so I don't give a shit about my credit score but credit card companies make money on every purchase you make with the card. If you never pay a cent of interest they still make money on you and I would bet they would...

    I really liked this week's episode and I can't wait for the finale. Nikki Swango is the best character of this season and Varga is the second best so it is fun that they're facing off for the finale. This has been the weirdest season of a very weird show and it's not as good as Season 2 but I'm...

    Nothing makes a thread unreadable faster than a couple people deciding they don't like the show anymore and moaning about it week after week. If you don't like the show, stop watching it. There's plenty of other TV to watch.

    I had a similar problem with my old Oldsmobile and it turned out to be an intermittent problem with the ignition switch. Took the mechanics months to figure it out with multiple wrong fixes along the way. Bad ground is also a good thing to look at with any weird electrical issue.

    That reminds me of a ramen/sushi joint I used to go to in the bay area. They had these little individually wrapped cheesecakes that were amazing. They tasted like cheesecake but they were sort of light and fluffy. Never seen anything like it anywhere else.

    Yeah, a lot of the things that happen in this show are extremely improbable but if you're concerned about that you're totally missing the point of the show and should probably watch some Law and Order instead.

    BTW, I got some sodium citrate and made the modernist Mac and cheese and it was excellent. Perfect cheese sauce that is super easy and you can use any cheese you want. I used extra sharp crumbly white cheddar that naturally melts horribly and the sauce came out great.

    I have often wondered about Russell Wilson and how legit he would be right now if his defense had disintegrated in the same way that Kaepernick's did after they went to the superbowl. I think Wilson is better than Kaep but I wonder how things would have been if the roles were reversed. Wilson...
