    The Fast Food Thread

    It's not used in anything though, because it costs more than real vanilla. That is the point.

    Maybe you didn't read the article. Anyway, you were posting some bullshit.

    Naked and Afraid

    This episode kind of turned around at the end. Really kind of seemed like we saw a 38 year old woman with a teenage daughter become an adult. Seemed like these two found way less food than last week. It's really pretty interesting how much difference just getting a little bit of food makes...

    The Fast Food Thread

    I'm referring to the part about beaver glands. Imitation vanilla extract is made from wood and it is not as good as real vanilla, but no one is actually using castoreum to flavor their ice cream since it's much more expensive than real vanilla and is mostly used in perfume. It's just one of...

    Steam Mops

    ^^ This is pretty much what my research showed as well. The Eureka is allegedly about the best one and also about the cheapest. I can't compare them personally, but I can verify that steam does come out of it and the floor gets cleaner when you rub the thing on it.

    Smartwatches / Fitness Trackers

    As hilarious as it would be to go to a bar on Friday night and see tons of yuppies with dead apple watches on their wrists, most of what I've heard on podcasts and the like is that it gets through a day pretty easily if you're not playing games on it or something.

    The Dallas Cowboys Memorial (2015 Off-Season) Thread

    I heard a rumor about a possible trade of Colin Kaepernick for Marcus Mariota. If the 49ers are really in full on rebuilding mode next year it might make sense.

    Tech Science Podcasts

    The other part was that they always upload them first to last, so they play backwards and you hear the host teasing the segment you just listened to. SCI-FRI has gone to just 2 chunks now though, and they just call them "hour 1" and "hour 2". They still upload them the wrong way so you hear...

    Silicon Valley

    Not a big deal but it kind of bugs me that the smart girl that is always trying to help them is so hot. It just seems like if there was ever a show to break the "no average looking girls get to be on TV" trope this would be it. It seems like no matter what the role is, it's always a hot chick...

    Tablets

    Does anybody use a tablet on a daily basis and if so why? I thought when the ipad first came out that I don't know what this thing is for and I still don't get it even though I have not owned one. I see commercials where people are holding them out at the end of their arm and it just looks...

    The Dallas Cowboys Memorial (2015 Off-Season) Thread

    I can't wait for the draft just so everyone can stop talking about it. I swear the NFL Network guys must want to kill themselves because they have been hyping the draft for like 6 weeks and I think some of them are starting to lose touch with reality.

    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    Can you imagine being a primitive tribe and seeing that shit with absolutely no context for it whatsoever? I would be rounding up every virgin I could find and throwing them in to try to make that thing happy.

    We don't have a burger king here, but the thing that always impressed me about Burger King's breakfast is how thin they can get bacon. You could literally get a paper cut from BK bacon.

    Podcasts Misc

    I recently subscribed to thePBS News Hourpodcastwhich I think is just the audio from the TV show chopped up into podcasts, and I do mean chopped. That said, I have really enjoyed it. I had almost forgotten what a real news report sounds like.

    The Americans

    I see what you're saying, but I guess it just rings true to me. If you're going to get into this job you're a true believer and true believers of all sorts are pretty good at ignoring evidence to the contrary of whatever it is that they believe in. It's only the idea of Paige getting into the...

    The Americans

    BTW, most of the "illegals" were not arrested until 2010 so them getting away with stuff is true to history. I have no idea how many operations the real spies actually pulled off but I suspect that you are correct that they were not nearly as active as they are portrayed in the show.

    The Americans

    I really couldn't disagree more with this. I just watched all 3 seasons and I think S3 was the best one. I think part of the problem is the fact that it's about spies makes people think they're going to see a show like Homeland but this show is mostly character driven and the spy stuff is more...

    The Americans

    I think that's sort of the point. They came over believing that they were fighting the great Satan for the glory of mother Russia and 100% dedicated to the cause but that idea is really fucking hard to support once you're here no matter how much brainwashing you have had. At the same time you...

    No posts on the finale? I thought it was pretty great. I feel sorry for Paige. She is a good girl and doesn't deserve to be in this situation. I will be interested to see how the pastor reacts. There is a certain amount of confidentiality with clergy but that might be too big a thing to...

    I'm wondering if they just decided to dispense with the item choices since machete and fire starter are the only reasonable choices.

    Survivor

    Mike is letting the game get into his head too much and forgetting that you have to maintain relationships. I wouldn't count him out though, with Joe out he is the favorite to win every challenge and he has a HII. I think if I was in his place next week and didn't win immunity I would put it...

    Naked and Afraid

    This might be the best couple ever on the show. It's too bad the woman got sick because she was pretty good in her own right. Seemed like these guys had actually prepared for the challenge with research and practice at important stuff. I know if I was going on this show I would spend a ton of...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Intelligence != train-ability necessarily. I'm not saying that they can't be trained, but I would guess if they could do anything a dog could do then we would see more trained pigs. Even if they are trainable, you won't find many pig trainers. If you need a trained dog or horse to appear in...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    They've been doing the monkeys riding dogs thing for years at rodeos. I'm guessing it was more of a training issue than an animal rights issue. Movie animals need to be *really* well trained and there probably aren't any pigs that are trained much at all and certainly not to be ridden so they...

    She quit her job on her soap opera and moved to California for Don because he wanted to, then he decided not to move and her career went nowhere in California. That's why her mother was telling her that she never should have left her soap.

    I always spit out sunflower seed shells because that shit will impale and lacerate you from throat to asshole. That's just science. I do however occasionally eat roasted peanuts shells and all. I admit that it's weird and I don't do it all the time but sometimes I just get the urge to crunch...

    It's exclusive to Apple devices for 3 months. That said, I've heard people say that they just watch it on a browser and cast the tab to their chromecast with acceptable results.

    I have the same one. I bought it based on Amazon reviews and it works well and the price is right. I'm not sure you're really supposed to use them on wood though.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I'll take this over discussion of leaked episodes. I just don't get why every other show we talk about the new episode for a day or two after it airs and then it goes dark for a few days until another episode comes out but for this show for some reason it stays active but inevitably devolves...

    You guys understand that these guys are actors and have not actually been castrated right? Who gives a fuck if a character that is on the show for 90 seconds total has the exact perfect build for a nutless soldier?

    Predictable boot this week but it was the right move. I'm still not sure if Jen really wants to go home or if she thinks this is a real strategy to stay in the game. Joe made a really nice fake idol, but only an idiot would have bought his story, even if Mike didn't already know what the idols...
