This is pretty much my feelings about this snow now as well. After swearing off the show at the end of season before last, I am going to watch the final season and expecting it to suck.

For some reason California gets to eat all of the nation's tri-tip. I had never heard of it before I went to CA (and I was on my FFA meat judging team), and every damn cafe in Northern Cal has a tri-tip sandwich. Haven't seen one in a restaurant since I left CA either, but I now know about it...

You have to consider the number of people affected vs. the likely results. If you start down the "if it would save one life" line of thinking you will wind up backing all kinds of asinine things. It's easy to say "we have to do something about gun violence and I don't give a damn about...

It's not much different than bacon/side pork except for the fact that it allegedly comes from a cow.

It has a little propane torch to light your coals for you? Never heard of that, that's kind of awesome.

Here's how long it takes someone who has practiced to reload an AR-15

I would be fine with magazine restrictions if I thought it would move the needle on violence in the US. I don't think it would. Pretty much the only situation where magazine capacity is a significant factor in murder is a mass shooting, which I have pointed out before is somewhere between...

It's not about the school, it's about the parents. As you showed, and plenty of other people do as well, if your parents actually raised you and made education a priority you can do well no matter what school you go to. If your mom is a crackhead and your dad is a drug dealer that you don't...

You could always throw the stuff you don't want on your shelves up on craigslist and somebody might buy it. Even if you just sold it for cost it might get somebody to come down the the store.

No longer need this thing, but I could have used some help findingthisthe other day. Literally took me 3 hours of googling and phone calls. I have never searched so hard for a somewhat common item on the internet before.

A $10k watch will only be impressive to other pompous douchebags. Most people will have any idea that it costs that much and any normal person who does recognize the watch will just think you're a douche bag. That said, looking at your cell phone is a terrible way to tell time. Wear a watch...

The people who are "fascinated" with guns aren't the ones killing people with them. The ones doing most of the killing are more interested in selling drugs than collecting AR-15s and a basement full of ammo. Also, the assault weapons ban and subsequent attempts to reinstate it *is* the reason...

Australia and the UK most recently.

Knowing you bought it isn't the same as knowing you have it. You could have sold it to someone at a gun show, through a classified ad, or just in a person to person transaction, perhaps without even knowing the name of the person you sold it to, and that is what a lot of people will claim...

Circular argument. If they already have all the information, then there's no need for a national registry, or it in fact already exists. Obviously if people want to create one, then they don't have the information already.

Yeah, and she didn't do shit. Anyone with $1500 can get everything they need to have a mass shooting. I think the basement hoarders are a little weird, but not inherently more dangerous than anybody else.

I don't think you can demonstrate that those people are a "potential danger to everyone around them" more than anyone else.

I'm officially on my third Galaxy Nexus now. Have not made it a year with one yet before the charging plug crapped out. The first one I replaced via insurance because the screen was also broken. On the second one the charging plug stopped working completely so I just bought an external...

Yeah, I have thought that was weird as well. It is going to have to come up by the end of the season though I think.

It's very rare to have a scene in a TV show with a bunch of kids talking to each other that isn't pretty painful to watch due to the acting. Kids that can act are very rare and one show isn't going to get that many of them. There's a reason that teenagers in movies are usually played by 25...

I bet if you showed a picture of Patrick Willis to 100 random people, less than 20 would know who he was.

Most football players aren't that recognizable since you always see them with helmets on.

I think people need to pay for at least part of their medical procedures themselves to prevent abuse by narcissists like Furry or people who take their kids to the emergency room because they have the sniffles since they are paying nothing. Some people need a little skin in the game to make...

Another long song. I was playing pool with my brother and cousins in a semi biker bar one time and they were all looking at us funny until I played this song on the jukebox and everybody started singing along with it. You could just sort of see everyone relax and stop thinking about kicking...

Cooked onions taste completely different than raw onions. I guarantee that almost any sauce (Marinara, alfredo, etc.) you have ever eaten in a restaurant has onions in it. Also, some onions are stronger than others. If you cut into one and it has a real hot, pungent smell, you should probably...

Only 8 minutes and it's actually a good bar song but after half an hour when it starts up for the 4th time people will be ripping their hair out.

Weinerschnitzel is pretty much crap except for the part of the year when they have the pastrami dog and pastrami burger. I don't know why those aren't more popular around the nation. They are fucking great.

I think the Dothraki are kind of like the Wildlings. If someone unites and organizes them, they are a formidable force, but most of the time they are mostly interested in just doing their own thing and some light pillaging of weaker groups but not really interested in taking over the world...

Dan Carlin is fucking great and not by any means some kind of conspiracy theory weirdo. One of the most clear headed political commentators you will come across.

Eh, 11 people died building the Golden Gate bridge and that turned out okay.

Considering Obama actively campaigned for renewal of the patriot act twice now and has pushed presidential privilege further than even Cheney had the balls to in raping the bill of rights, and more Democrats voted for the original patriot act than voted against it in the senate, I don't make any...

Typing on tablets sucks. I would never make that my primary device, they are just way too limited. Trying to use handwritten notes from your tablet is likely to be a frustrating experience as well. My sister in law tried to use an iPad for college even though I told her it was a bad idea. A...

It's often best not to read interviews by your favorite actors. Same with musicians. You are likely to be disappointed. After I watched the DVD commentaries from the previous seasons of Game of Thrones, my biggest takeaway is that writers and directors and much more interesting people to talk...

This is why the Democrats are more dangerous to the bill of rights/civil liberties than Republicans. Whenever Republicans try something like this, the Dems all scream bloody murder. When Obama does it, they either say "Bush did it too!", sit on their hands and go "Yay our team" or if they do...

I heard Matt Weiner on "Fresh Air" on NPR and he basically said that he hates the "next week on" segment and if they would let him he wouldn't do it but they won't so he does the next best thing and makes it but shows you absolutely nothing about what will be on next week.

There are few things that confuse me more than the fact that True Blood is still popular.

James turned it up to 11 for this quarter.

What about dry anal rape?
