    Shaving

    They sent a sample of the shave butter with my first set of razors. It was pretty nice but I bought 12 cans of my regular shave cream on Amazon a couple years ago and I'm still working my way through it.

    You already have many capacitors in your smartphone and no, they are not dangerous.

    Smartphones

    That's pretty cool. Particularly since Aluminum is way easier to come by than lithium. I wouldn't really care if I had to charge my phone during the day if I could do it in one minute.

    Get Hard - Will Ferrell and Kevin Hart

    Well, you can be forgiven for liking it as a 7 year old. Hell when I was that age my favorite show was The Dukes of Hazard and I remember being dumbfounded when it was canceled because why would they cancel the best show on television?

    Get Hard - Will Ferrell and Kevin Hart

    Nostalgia. That was NOT a good show.

    Garfunkel and Oates on IFC

    It was funny but I sort of felt like they were running out of ideas by the end of S1 so they might not have had another season in them. I heard an interview with Jermaine Clement a while back about the Flight of the Conchords show and he said that it was brutal trying to come up with subsequent...

    Tool might eventually release a new album someday

    These guys make George R. R. Martin look efficient. It's probably time to change the '14 in the thread title to '16.

    Mad Men

    It was nice to watch some Mad Men. Looking forward to the last 5 episodes. Also, apparently Roger Sterling was on the cutting edge of the 70's mustache and sideburns.

    That is a hell of a lot of people and very few of them even ring a bell.

    Same story. If I had just been playing because I enjoyed it I would have quit 2 years sooner.

    The idea of video games being an obligation sounds so weird to me now even though I did it for years.

    Yeah, when you never throw the ball more than 15 yards it helps your accuracy stats.

    Survivor

    I love the endurance challenges. I feel like it really shows you who really wants it, not that wanting it always leads to success. I have nothing but contempt for people that bitch out for food in the later ones but I guess if you know you aren't going to win it's smart. I still hate them...

    What vehicle do you drive?

    Plenty of people never change their oil, especially ones that change cars regularly. I used to know a guy that bought a new pickup every 2 years and never changed the oil because he knew he would get rid of it before it started having problems. He was kind of a dick but at least he's dead now.

    The Dallas Cowboys Memorial (2015 Off-Season) Thread

    I've been listening to podcasts with scouts and they all seem to think that Winston is the real deal. The only people Bucky Brooks ranks above him in recent years were Andrew Luck and Cam Newton. Bucky said that he'd talked to somebody that runs an elite high school football camp where they...

    Service Providers (Internet, TV, Etc)

    That is pretty cool. Our local telephone co-op has put up LTE in some neighborhoods but they told me it wasn't practical in my area because of too many hills. I feel very confident that the TV interference wouldn't be a problem here. We used to get one channel if you had one of the big ass...

    Justified

    That was a great episode and Boyd is definitely a dick. BTW I forgot to post it last week but I heard Graham Yost interviewed on "Fresh Air" and he explained why Markum had so much cash on hand. Apparently because of federal marijuana laws banks are under pressure from the FDIC to not take...

    Better Call Saul

    ^^ This is a good point. I think Chuck is just an old man and he is genuinely offended by what he feels is Jimmy's lack of respect for the law, which is the most important thing in his life. He is being shitty about it, but I wouldn't say he's a bad person.

    Smartphones

    I think I heard somewhere that the edge strip will change colors based on notifications kind of like the multicolor notification LEDs but it can be seen while the phone is lying face down. Not exactly a game changer, but it is one tiny use for it aside from aesthetics.

    So in this thread we have established that nurses are crazy and Filipino women are crazy and since all Filipino women are nurses, we have achieved full stereotype harmony. Congrats everyone.

    Better Call Saul

    Well that will certainly work for a way to turn Jimmy into Saul. They way that they revealed it was really well done, especially the scene with Kim where she lets him believe that she screwed him over to keep him from finding out that Chuck did it and getting hurt even worse. I'm glad Jimmy...

    The Daily Show with Trevor Noah

    I did like the fact that Stewart was willing to mock the democrats, but it wasn't the same as what he did to the Republicans. He mocks the right for their beliefs as well as for their incompetence/corruption while he only mocks the left for the latter. I think it would be pretty hard to find...

    The only thing on my plugins page is Adobe Flash Player. I'm not too concerned about it though since this computer is about to be retired.

    Smokers / Grills

    No, just something I stole from the internet. I very well may cook a steak on my Smokey Joe tonight though, just because this thread reminded me of it and why in the hell wouldn't I?

    Smokers / Grills

    I have to put in a plug for the Weber Smokey Joe here. If you just want a charcoal grill to cook burgers or steaks on for yourself or just a couple people that thing is pretty fucking amazing. You will pay $150 for a gas grill that is absolute garbage but you can buy that thing for $30 and it...

    Eggs fried in bacon fat > eggs fried in anything else. That said, I don't save my bacon fat, but I do have some good fried eggs if I'm making bacon as well. Also, bacon grease in the oven is better than having it raining all over your cook top and counter when you fry it in a pan. I never...

    The Dallas Cowboys Memorial (2015 Off-Season) Thread

    Watching RG3 the last couple years I think there was more to it than just injury. The kid is rattled and may not be able to come back from it. I sure as hell wouldn't trade a first round pick for him even if I was desperate for a QB.

    The Daily Show with Trevor Noah

    It works for Bill Mahr because he's a very strong host. Even though I hate him, he is very good at his job. When a host is really good the panel discussion works very well but hosting is one of those things that you don't notice when it's being done really well but the whole thing falls apart...

    I forgot to add that even though Nina has done nothing this season but mope around her jail cell in sweat pants she is still crazy fucking hot.

    The Daily Show with Trevor Noah

    I agree on the panel being too short, but also some of the bits they do are just cringeworthy. Stuff that wouldn't make the worst night of the worst season of SNL. Also every joke Wilmore makes is about race even when the topic has nothing to do with it which just makes him seem like a one...

    I wonder how long the Nightly Show is going to last. I have tried hard to like that show but it's just not very good.

    The Americans

    I marathoned all 35 episodes of this show over the last few weeks and while I enjoyed it mostly all the way through, this last season has been phenomenal. Couldn't disagree more with the people calling the stuff with Paige "tiresome". I can only assume that you thought you were watching 24 or...

    The Wire: Greatest Show Ever Made

    That interview was cool, but has the president always had that much trouble spitting out a sentence? Seems like everything he said had 5 pauses, 6 ums, and a couple of "and and and and" type pauses. Has he always been like that?

    You can usually tell just by holding your hand an inch above the pan whether it's hot or not. That said, I do check the temp of my pans all the time because I have an infrared thermometer and they are awesome so I want to use it. I do usually wait until the pan hits 400 or so before adding...

    I DVR'd S2 on the free Starz Marathon today. Is this worth watching and do I need to see S1 first? Or should I just fast forward through the episodes to see the tits?
