    Smartphones

    S3 is a great phone. You might also look into a Nexus 4. I don't know if that works with Walmart's plans but it's a good phone and relatively cheap to buy off-contract.

    Gravy's Cooking Thread

    No need to refrigerate hot sauce, it's mostly salt and vinegar and not susceptible to bacteria. I have left ketchup and mustard out for days or even weeks with no negative effects as well. Even mayonnaise is still fine if it's left out overnight.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    There is nothing to base any of these statements on. We only have Varys' word that he wants what is best in the long run for the most people, but when he is already on the small council it doesn't make sense to tear the whole world apart and secretly raise a child and teach him to be a virtuous...

    Tywin doesn't give a shit about the realm. All he cares about is the best interest of the Lannisters.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    None of those people have a clear claim to the throne nor the power to bring the other families under their thumb. There's no reason to think that any of them being in charge would result in anything but more war.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I imagine it will depend on the ratings. If they stay good HBO will probably not mind tacking on an extra season or two. On the other hand, there are certainly those that think the last couple books could have been condensed a bit.

    I can't remember, was that from the book as well or just in the tv show?

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    What does he get out of the Targaryans being in power? He had exactly the same position under all 3 kings he worked for. You could be right but to this point there is zero evidence that you are.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    He's not the king. He can't just order things to happen, he just nudges things in one direction and then reacts to what happens next. We have no evidence that he's done anything out of desire for personal gain or cruelty. We've only seen him do what he thinks is best for everyone in the long...

    Mad Men

    We don't necessarily know if the dealer guy would have resulted in their losing the account because Don preemptively took his ball and went home. That's why Pete said Don "fired" Jaguar.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    You know this story goes for 7 or so (long) books and probably 10-12 TV seasons right? If you're looking for instant gratification it might not be the show for you.

    Also, not to criticize the mods, I know you guys have a tough job, but I feel the need to point out that if you always remove correct predictions from the no spoiler thread that is kind of a spoiler in itself. You guys are doing a great job but just something to think about.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    As far as motivation goes he's a good guy. Sure a lot of innocents are suffering, but I think he truly believes it's for the greater good. "The ends justify the means" is a dangerous attitude, but from what we've seen so far I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt that he is trying to do good...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Off the top of my head, major characters that are "good" by Westeros standards, meaning that they don't do horrible, cruel things either for their own pleasure or to get ahead in life. (I'm not including revenge in the "bad" list.) Jon Snow All the Starks (even Rob never really sought...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Jon doesn't kill Ygritte in the book, someone else in the knight's watch does. They make a point of him checking when he finds her and being relieved that it wasn't his arrow in her. I liked the wall climbing scene, but I think that dude needs to sharpen his knife. It took him like a minute...

    HDTVs

    CNET is really the only place for HDTV reviews. The guys on the Engadget HD podcast were talking about it and they basically said that they would like to compete with CNET but it takes like $50K worth of equipment to do the real tests that CNET does and the payback is not worth the investment...

    Yes, I hate discussion and I have autism. Nothing wrong with speculation. All I said was when you get to the point where your doing the "my speculation is right and yours is wrong" routine, in my very humble opinion, you have entered the realm of being a dipshit.

    Survivor 26: Caramoan

    Great episode. Reynold was a no-brainer. He's just too dangerous in challenges. I feel bad for Andrea but she was a bit too cutthroat. Everyone knew she was sharp and ruthless and nobody trusted her. I'm afraid the same may be true of my man Cochrane. What the hell was Erik thinking...

    I think the problem with this thing is that it's too long. Most people don't have 4 minutes worth of even bad jokes. That said, this was terrible, but saying worst ever is a really high bar.

    That got me in the book. I was shocked when Rob and Cat were killed, but when it looked like Arya was going to die I was like "no fucking way" and I had to skip ahead to the next Arya chapter and read the first page to reassure myself that she wasn't dead before continuing the story.

    Smartphones

    Have you looked at Ting wireless? You don't get subsidies on phones, but the plans are very low on bullshit and very inexpensive. They are a Sprint reseller so if Sprint has good coverage in your area you are GTG. Their thing is that there is no contract and you only pay for what you use. If...

    Gun control

    The way he is framing it is laying the foundation for bad things to come. The basic message is that he knows best and we should just shut up about the bill of rights and go play while the adults are talking. Fuck that guy.

    The more I think about this the more it pisses me off. I thought the soft drink size ban was stupid but this is another level. Fuck that guy.

    Boston Marathon Explosion - Today's Topics: Public Schools

    I read plenty of long articles. Big fan of Vanity Fair and the New Yorker and all that shit. That doesn't mean listening to a couple wankers blather on endlessly is a good use of my time. I've read probably hundreds of thousands of internet posts over the last 15 years and if there's one...

    When I was in college I was a security guard making like $6 an hour and I didn't realize what kind of shitheels that sort of job attracts. When I became the weekend supervisor I worked noon to midnight and everyone else was on an 8 hour schedule so every night I spent the hour after shift...
