    She's never even smoked weed, so it's all good. I just have to make sure she doesn't try cooking with the ounce of mushrooms in the freezer.

    NHL 2012-13 - Half Season Thread

    Dude, the Seabrook/Toews goal hits the mesh at the back of the net 12-14 inches off the ice. The Kane goal is pretty much halfway up the net, right in the middle.

    Worst Major League Sports Commissioner?

    Maybe that would work for baseball given that it's such a slow, stop/start kind of sport. It doesn't/wouldn't work for hockey at all though for anything but goals. And when there is a review for a goal, it's the definition of time wasting.

    The help finding products thread

    I need to find some hubcentric rings for a set of 18" TSW Croft wheels that work with a 2009 335 xi. Assholes I bought the wheels from didn't install them for some reason, and I spent 3 years wondering why my wheels were so out of balance. Can't seem to find a local dealer that has them, and the...

    Let's talk about sex redux

    Feet are ugly, smelly, and disgusting. So I see no reason why I wouldn't want to lick and suck on them. But seriously, foot fetishes are fucking weird.

    Gun control

    Yeah, and that whole operation was done in a misguided attempt to dismantle gun smuggling operations that were already in existence. http://www.theatlantic.com/internati...olence/241387/ Derp.

    Worst Major League Sports Commissioner?

    I dunno dude, the NHL has been continually revising the system and at any given moment almost no one is completely happy with the NHL's policies on video review. The vast, vast majority of hockey is still not subject to review. The only thing that is reviewable is goals basically. Seeing as MLB...

    Gun control

    Yeah, I dunno about that. The US itself is the source for the vast majority of guns in North America, not Mexico or Canada. "The drug gangs running around south of the border" are doing it with guns that were originally manufactured in the US. Not to mention that overall gun crime isn't a huge...

    Worst Major League Sports Commissioner?

    Allowing managers and coaches on to the actual field of play has to be one of the dumbest aspects of baseball. Albeit it's a pretty fucking terrible passtime to begin with (it ain't a sport, that's for sure).

    It's not a placebo effect, per se. The benefits of meditation and the like are quite well known and recognized by science. That doesn't mean God is beaming you MDMA.

    Fair enough. I can't really see how anyone would vote Goodell considering how successful and profitable the NFL is.

    Buying a car?

    Yeah, base level BMW's have terrible options/features. They do it to be able to compete/advertise on price, I guess, and then bend you over when you actually order one.

    Smartphones

    On my Nexus 4 when I plug or unplug the phone on an imperfect angle it makes a clicking sound that worries me. Hopefully it won't be an issue long term, since there's no replaceable battery.

    Worst Major League Sports Commissioner?

    This poll is probably more about who likes what sport/league than anything. People are going to choose whoever the commissioner is for their favorite league, because everyone always hates them. I do think that Bettman is definitely up there, despite not really giving a shit about the other...

    Awesome kids toys that you play with

    I loved me some Capsela too. I built boats just fine with it, you just had to make sure they were long/wide/squat enough.

    Nine Inch Nails - New album is done

    Yeah I'm realistic about things, I'm sure a lot of the synth stuff is looped or whatever, or at least was in the past. So long as the drums, vocals, and at least some of the guitar is authentic that's good enough for me. I'd imagine that it's gotten easier over the years to actually play a lot...

    Buying a car?

    I'd say so on reliability, yes. VW has made shit vehicles for over two decades now, reliability wise. http://www.autonews.com/apps/pbcs.dl...#axzz2WaLtuLz7 JD Power and Consumer Reports both regularly rank them near the bottom for reliability. Cost of repair wise, that I'm less sure about...

    Nine Inch Nails - New album is done

    Got me some floor/GA tickets for their show in Edmonton, looking forward to it. Sort of shitty that you can only get 2 with the NIN.com presale, 4 would be nice. But either way I appreciate the effort on NIN's part to ensure that fans get good seats without having to buy scalped tickets like...

    Weird interview/job offer experiences?

    Never really had to be interviewed for a job (Blockbuster in highschool notwithstanding), but I do interview a lot of guys for construction jobs. Most go about as you'd expect, where you try to figure out if the guy is as big of an alcoholic as he looks etc. Only a couple have ever gone really...

    Switzerland and french riviera with elderly, handicapped grandma

    In my experience wheelchair accessibility in Europe is horrendous compared to North America, if only because it wasn't a requirement a couple centuries ago when most of Europe was actually built and it can be a nightmare to retrofit existing buildings for it. Newer stuff is fine, but older...

    Yeah I would have expected it to come out by now as well. Everything leads me to believe though that she feels that way but for whatever reason doesn't want to come out and say it, not sure why. Maybe she's worried about scaring me off or something? From my perspective at the outset I decided...

    Steam Deals and Digital Sales

    Just watched one of the videos on Steam (the first one wouldn't play for whatever reason). Looks pretty neat, but not $89.99 neat. Spiritual successor to TA for sure, but I don't think that the main people are involved, as that would mean that Gas Powered Games and Chris Taylor would be working...

    Not sure, but wasn't it started by a bunch of evangelicals or something? I seem to recall reading somewhere that it mostly started out as a Christian dating website or something. They were or still are hardcore opposed to the homosexshuls.

    No, she had wanted to do clinical psychology, specifically research. So while it's probably not a high paying field, it was a career. She didn't get in to the programs she applied for, which is for the best because that would have meant she'd be leaving town (none were local). She's been trying...

    Renal failure in pets: experience and advice with a side of amphibious bears

    I do not believe that bears are amphibious overall. However I will concede that the polar bear species in particular may in fact be considered in some circles, semi-amphibious. Grizzly bears on the other hand are decidedly not amphibious. Nor are black bears considered to be amphibious.

    Thanks Vvoid, that was a great post. Others as well. Yeah, that's about what I figured. The only real issue with this relationship is that there's never been much talk about what we're doing or where it's going. Which is about 95% a good thing, in my opinion, it's always felt quite natural. Even...

    Buying a car?

    Yeah I wasn't really criticizing you in particular, please don't take it that way. I just don't get why anyone would look at the monthly finance cost of a vehicle, as opposed to the sticker price. Same way that I wouldn't think about the monthly payment on a couch, house or whatever else. It...

    I just flat out don't understand why anyone would look at car ownership on a monthly financed basis. If you're financing your car and have to actually be concerned about how much the payment is, you should probably be making better financial decisions. Hell, isn't that thing worth half as much...

    I think that the sites can be pretty regional. Being that POF was started out of Vancouver, it tends to be pretty big in Western Canada and I think along the West Coast of the US. In Edmonton anyways POF is pretty much the main dating website from what I can see, with everything from complete...
