I know people that have gone into social work and found out pretty much the same thing. When you're in school you're thinking "I'm going to help the poor and needy and it will be great!" and then when you start doing it it's like "Oh, my job is to get money for useless piece of shit junkies so...

As others have said, talking about all these other guys is kind of moot since they are not available. If you're not going to pay the quarterback you have, your only real choices are to try to steal somebody's promising backup, rehabilitate some guy that has failed on another team, or draft...

My month old G2 already shit the bed. The headphone jack went crazy and since LG has a cutesy little animation when you plug in headphones it's constantly doing that animation and the audio switches back and forth between coming out of the phone speaker and the headphones. They are sending me...

There wasa thread on The Steel Warriorback in the day where a member that we had recently banned killed a couple of people with an axe (not related to his banning as far as I know). That is a little more than is needed, but a midnight fistfight in the street would be nice, preferably if one or...

Interesting choice making the numbers look like a 7-segment display.

Maybe if you dump the acid into your eyes or you short it out and cause it to explode or something, but not from a shock. To get 40 amps out of 12 volts you have to have a resistance of 0.3 Ohms. It's called "Ohm's Law" for a reason. It's the god damn law.

And you both chose to spoil the end of the movie too! Awesome.

That's a good point. I was in the Bay Area which has a very large Asian population. When I was taking grad school classes at Santa Clara University my classes were like 75% Asians.

Yeah, I can see it both ways. The fact of the matter is that it's hard to get a proven QB and SF has to either pay him or someone else will. If he regresses next year it might lead to a better deal, but if he goes deep in the playoffs again then some team is going to give him big time...

Volts and Amperage are directly related. 12 volts is not enough to get current flowing through your body. Because of the resistance of your body, you need like 50 volts to get enough current flowing that you can even feel it. It doesn't matter that the battery is capable of putting out plenty...

Hah, I almost put in that the female engineers you do see are all asian but I decided that I'd already spouted enough stereotypes for one post :P.

I hate to be the "well actually" nerd, but I don't think you can torture someone with a car battery unless you are hitting them over the head with it. Go grab the battery posts on your car. 12 volts isn't enough to even give you a perceivable shock.

It was interesting to hear McConaughey talking sincerely about God and religion in his acceptance speech after watching Rust's rants about how stupid religious people are.

I am 100% against gun control, but the argument that guns are not more effective at killing people than knives is just retarded. It's extremely obvious that they are.

Based on my experience with engineering, a black female engineer is like a unicorn. She's probably going to get hired for any job that she applies for just because both women and black people are severely underrepresented in the field. Secondly, very few of the female engineers I knew did much...

Seems like the teleprompter is going way too slow. It's making the presenters look like morons.

What's sad is that she won an oscar and she will probably never have another major role. They just don't make that many movies about 400 lb women.

Turned it on just in time to see Ellen taking pictures with that giant phone. This is retarded.

Yeah, DSL is pretty much dependant on how good your wires are and how far down the line you are. You pretty much get what you get.

Iridium is starting to launch a new 72-satellite array that would be capable of giving anyone on the planet 8 Mbit down no matter where they are. It's a replacement for their sat phone array that they already went broke on. I suspect it will be expensive since the satellites cost so much to...

The internet is fucked | The Verge

However they chose to evaluate "brains" obviously didn't work out. IQ doesn't translate to being good at survivor at all. It's not really about book smarts, it's about social skills more than real book smarts. I wasn't really down on J'tia until she dumped the rice. That was some dumb ass...

Fuck Subway. I'd rather eat a day old sub from a gas station. Same quality and half the price.

Don't forget Mexicans and people carrying guns in public. Also a lot of Mormons.

I agree with this, but it's not always easy to know what you are passionate about. Even taking classes on the subject sadly won't tell you whether or not you will like the work. You really have no idea what it's like working in the field even after you graduate from college. I loved my...

Did you know that Tom Cruise used to race cars with Paul Newman, but he was too aggressive and everyone made him stop because he was going to kill himself and he was incapable of dialing it back? That's you and mountain bikes dude. Find a different thing.

Not all of them. If your'e in Modesto you can stay entertained by watching for people who want to shoot you or steal your car. Nothing boring about that!

Hah, I can remember the first TV I bought getting out of college. It was a 32" Tube TV and it cost like $450. I carried it up the stairs to my apartment by myself. I had to stop and rest at each step and was in constant fear of slipping and destroying the TV/killing myself. Now a 32" TV is...

Yeah, I think they usually budget enough OT for 3 or 4 good storms per winter and if you get 3 or 4 in December then it's going to be slim pickings for the rest of the year. Also there is a thing where the snow plow drivers are excited about making OT for the first few weeks but once there's...

Mexican food varies drastically from area to area. Phoenix is a lot different than Albuquerque, which is way different than California, which is much different than Texas. I'm told it's much the same in different areas of Mexico. When it comes down to it it's all just combinations of meat...

Shove the garlic up your ass, shove your thumb up behind it, and leave it there overnight.

Last season wasn't their best, but this season it feels like they just gave up. I am too lazy to look up the writers on IMDB but I can't believe it's the same people.

Just got around to watching this mailed-in piece of shit. I can't believe how far this show has fallen from last season.

You guys are just copy-pasting these theories and pictures from Reddit right? I would hate to think that I participate in a website where people go frame by frame through TV shows and take screenshots of people wearing yellow ties.

I think the whole trade thing was bullshit, but Cleveland does have 2 first round picks this year. I bet with a team as stacked as the 49ers and 3 first round draft picks you could probably attract a lot of coaches.

And that is 100% true. The voters decided that having a pro team was worth what it costs, so where's the scandal? San Francisco didn't want to pay for a stadium so the 49ers are in Santa Clara now. Not exactly the end of the world. NFL teams are not the police or schools. If you don't want...

Thanks, I hoped some of the people with Asus routers that posted earlier in the thread would weigh in. It looks like you can just look at wired vs. wireless and not individual IPs? What happens when you click the "real time" drop down at the top? I'm assuming it will give you some amount of...

I get sick of these "exposes". These stadiums are approved by taxpayers.

The only thing I miss about living in Phoenix, AZ is Filliberto's. This burrito weighs like 2 pounds and costs $5.
