    The Kansas City BBQ "get-together and pig out" thread

    I don't know why I keep torturing myself by opening this thread. If the US was a rifle target, Kansas City would be the bullseye.

    Come on. When you are trying to turn an agent then by definition you think that they are not trustworthy. If you think that they are trustworthy then you would be wasting your time trying to turn them.

    Service Providers (Internet, TV, Etc)

    It depends on the channel. Channels like HBO would love to be sold ala carte. Specialty channels like the Outdoor Life Network or the Speed Channel or something would probably immediately go out of business if not for bundling.

    I'm sure they weren't going to "hire to run the secret terrorist organization". Don't be an asshole. There's a reason why people with security clearances are watched very carefully when they get into substance abuse problems, money problems, family problems, etc. That is a great sign that...

    2013 NFL Season

    It was. If you read the article it was basically a pissing match between Donald Trump and some other uber rich guy and Young was the beneficiary. Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy really.

    2013 NFL Season

    I doubt Young would have been one of the guys to go out and blow his money on rimz and shit, but considering how most NFL players go through their money and wind up broke in 5 years after they're out of the league that would be a pretty good way for a lot of them to have their pay structured...

    Homeland

    I don't know about that. Double agents are not exactly unheard of and if they don't smell the trap, the fact that she has been publicly thrown under the bus by her own agency and is totally nanners in the mental hospital would make her a prime candidate to take a run at for a foreign...

    This line invalidates anything else you might have said. BBQ chicken and garlic chicken are not pizza. That said, the sicilian pizza from California Pizza Kitchen is usually what I go with if I am going to get a frozen pizza.

    Survivor: Blood vs. Water

    Definitely the best line of the episode.

    Tablets

    Apple is becoming more of a fashion brand than a tech innovator. Their new watch will play into that as well. As long as they keep being the "cool" devices, they will continue to print money. Most nerds don't give a shit about fashion, but a lot of people do.

    You season a pan by coating it with crisco or bacon grease and baking in the oven at 400 degrees for an hour. Alton Brown recommends repeating this yearly but I have never found it to be necessary as long as you cook in it fairly regularly and don't wash it with soap. I only do it if I start...

    Is the seasoning fucked up? One time through the dishwasher isn't going to do that much damage, and even if it did you can just re-season it easily. No big deal. Totally worth it to get your kitchen clean.

    Sons of Anarchy

    Followed up a good episode last week with a whole lot of stupid this week. The Tara storyline was just flat ridiculous and seeing Walton Goggins just makes me wish I was watching Justified.

    I had a dream last night that I was in a cooking competition being judged by Adam Carolla. I was supposed to make Coq au Vin but there was no wine in the kitchen. For some reason I thought that the only place that I could get wine was from Mandy Patinkin's character from Homeland. I drove...

    Masters of Sex

    I'm caught up on the show now and I like it, but it could be a lot better. It's a fascinating story and the two main characters are great, but the supporting cast not so much. Mainly I have trouble with the attempts at humor. There are plenty of awkward situations that should be funny, but...

    2013 NFL Season

    The teams know this as well. You can totally tell that Kaepernick has been strictly forbidden to take a hit. He slides as soon as a defender starts to get close. I think they're being more careful with him than last year also because Alex Smith isn't sitting on the bench ready to go in if he...

    The steaming is just to get some of the fat out of them so they will get crispy and not smoke up your kitchen. I can't see any reason doing it the night before would be a problem.

    Homeland

    To be fair, they couldn't keep up the pace of season 1 without turning into some cornball shit like "24". Having a new terrorist mastermind come along every few months and get vanquished by the heros would be equally if not more lame.

    +1. It's just local news level bullshit that someone has to do an "expos?" on some fast food place every 3 months. Everybody knows that you take all the good cuts off the chicken, grind up what's left, bread it and deep fry it and that's chicken nuggets. They are not poison, they taste good...

    I hadn't really thought about it but the whole gun running business seems like bullshit to me. Is there really a big market for illegal machine guns in northern California? Plenty of people getting shot in NorCal but they don't use full auto anything nor is there any reason that they should...

    Survivor: Blood vs. Water

    I've said it before, but I think the loved one aspect is solid and they should keep it in the rotation. It really ups the complexity of the social game. Redemption island is boring though. One interesting aspect is the HII clues though. I don't know when there's been a season where we made...

    South Park

    Explanation is in Fedor's post 6 above yours. Scott Tenorman is my all time favorite episode and I was happy to watch it again although I was confused at the beginning thinking they were doing some sort of flashback thing.

    She was just jealous because all her skinny friends were getting raped but she wasn't.

    The correct term is "legitimate" rape victims.

    Woman who was getting her box munched on in public now claiming rape

    I think it's hard to accuse someone of rape when there are witnesses and photos that show you were not resisting or saying no. On the other hand, I think a lot of us have been at parties where a girl passes out and then gets fucked or at least fucked with when she is basically unconscious and...

    There are a few fat linemen, but most of them are in better shape than anyone you know. I was mostly commenting about the stupidity of the BMI Charts, which don't even take sex into consideration when telling the world what they should weigh. Witness Clay Matthews III, 6'3", 255 lbs, BMI...

    Seriously, the way to go with non-stick is to just get a cheap one at walmart and replace it when the surface gets fucked up. Even $15 non-stick pans are awesome when they are new, and if they only last a year, who gives a fuck? I get a new non-stick from Wally world about once a year and use...

    I'm not sure there's a reason to go enameled unless you really like your pots colorful or you just want to pay $266 forsomething you can get from Lodge for $30. BTW, the Lodge is not by any means difficult to clean and I make chili in mine all the time.

    Bad news guys. Most of the NFL is "morbidly obese" on the BMI chart. Better get Michelle Obama on this immediately.
