    True Detective

    Watched it while waiting on dinner. It's funny because I rewatched the other three seasons and enjoyed them despite their flaws, and despite them not being equal, didn't feel what they were a waste of time. This one however will be something I never subject myself to again, and will probably...

    Could be fun. At least it sounds somewhat original.

    Twisters (2024)

    It's been a long time since I saw that movie but I don't remember it being that bad. I mean I remember watching the animated deal on liquid television, and I thought it did a pretty good job of making it a live-action movie. Maybe because it wasn't as weird enough? I do agree with your stance...

    The Fast Food Thread

    Need to find an HEB near you that has the South Flo pizza deal in it. Only place we get pizza from anymore and it's really good. Used to be 10 bucks for large pizza with unlimited toppings, the sky is the limit. They've gone up to maybe 12, and started charging for additional shit. Trick is...

    The one by us is maybe 7 8 minutes away, and there's an HEB right across the street so I'll typically go there and then pop in a trader Joe's afterwards to pick up those couple of things I might need for a meal. I was on every big fan but I really grown to like some of the stuff they offer...

    I wasn't ever really big fan of them for a long time but we have one thats pretty close, and their prices are actually pretty good on certain items. There's some pretty interesting spices that are normally maybe two bucks a bottle. They might not always have specific things for maybe your...

    I don't think we ever bought those, but I guess I was thinking of their gyoza and shumi The kombu was to put a piece in the rice vinegar solution. I saw morimoto do it, and a few other sushi making videos I watched the other day. They basically took the rice vinegar and then dissolved sugar...

    Gyoza I guess, but they all look like dumplings. I did pick up a leek and cabbage gyoza to give it a shot. We normally buy the trader Joe's ones or whatever, and they're okay but they had such a huge variety from a bunch of different brands I wasn't certain which ones were worth it. The...

    I forget that the rotisserie kit I got for the Weber kettle has the pizza making implements. What's the weather warms up the spring I'll have to bust it out and try to make pizza. @Lanx you ever buy the pre-made dumplings at the Asian grocery store. I went to the one by the house this...

    Over the last few weeks I rewatched the first three seasons, and they're so much better. First is still the best, but I really enjoyed the second one. I didn't keep up with what the discussion was when an originally came out, and from what I gather some people complained about it being crappy...

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    Yeah, seems like they just pushed the game to go faster and faster. Haven't done anything with the field mod system. Didn't help that they released that tier 8 Chinese premium rocket boosted tank in the Xmas boxes a couple of years ago that's completely screwed up. Was surprised they nerfed...

    Haha, first example I thought of. Yeah, used to spend money on that game with a few other buddies. Didn't mind because it was my game budget and wasn't buying or playing anything else. Once they brought in the holiday boxes for super duper rare tanks it was "get fucked". I still kind of...

    Make wings like a man. Double fried my friend. If it's pretty tasty you could do just a light splash on an ultra fried wing, but not a heavy sauce but just a drizzle. Add it to your dipping your sauce. Another option is you could do some really good crispy fried chicken breast or thighs, and...

    God damn, well I know my answer now, because I would never want to lose sleep over that. If I'm not mistaken though I think that guy is just a comedian and he makes those videos because he's grifting off YouTube. Gas technique might be good but he's not a chef, and I think he's just doing it...

    So what the hell is the purpose of me using a rice cooker versus just being able to deftly cook rice in a damn pot? Am I going to notice a big difference, or is it because it's going to stay fresher longer or something? Had a Vietnamese roommate that I was friends with in high school and lived...

    Not nigiri necessarily but you can have rolls that have raw fish. I don't think it'll be that big of a deal when I've got enough variety sort of planned. Again ever made it at home, figured at least I just asked whether or not there was something to pay attention to or what specific raw fish...

    Duke's is better for burgers and sandwiches, but homemade fresh Mayo is still king, and it's so easy to make. I do like Kewpie though, it's definitely got a unique flavor.

    Always have a bottle of Japanese mayo. When I mean white boy it's whether or not I'm going to screw around just making some California rolls, etc. vs trying to get some good raw fish. I think HEB has some pretty decent pretty decent frozen tuna, was thinking about getting at least a lobster...

    I'm assuming seasoned means it has the salt sugar and kombu already infused in it? I guess another question is do you ever buy any fish and use it for sushi from the regular grocery store, or is it always from a fishmonger? I ask because I know HEB has flash frozen fish, but I also know...

    Yeah, I saw one of the bazooka kits on Amazon when I was looking around. Probably pick one up. I still like to learn how to roll them by hand so you can make the types of rolls where the rice is on the outside along with ingredients on the top. I did see some sort of silicone rolling mat...

    @Lanx you ever make sushi at home? Number of years ago the wife had gotten me rolling kit, and I guess we're Valentine's I was going to go ahead and get the stuff to make it on Friday or Saturday. Was thinking maybe three or four types of rolls. Probably nothing super fancy, but just need...

    Pretty much the same boat. I make it if we're doing Oriental, making gumbo, or maybe I'll make Spanish rice if I'm doing Mexican, but it's not a mainstay that I constantly have to have on hand. It's easy enough to do well and a non-stick pot. I can do two cups of good jasmine rice with...

    That's a pretty fucked up etouffe recipe. Normally doesn't have cheese or cream. I can see a splash of cream at the end just to kind of round the sauce out but the cheese is not traditional at all. Clove is another thing it typically don't see. If you want a real one, let me know. I'll...

    Nah, just a normal guy that just likes fly fishing. I think I got that rod on clearance off of eBay when a bunch of fly shops around the country were liquidating Hardy's maybe four years ago. Two handers at least allow me to punch it out a lot further if I'm just fishing lakes or ponds. I...

    I think only the very first season or original movies that were on Showtime or whatever had nudity. Once they got picked up by Syfy, that all got scrapped, but I remember the episode where the main chick changes, and they blurred out her boobs on the channel.

    Yeah remember watching this particular video or short film on there, and that's always stuck with me over the years. For some reason I think it was because of the music. It's really good and it's worth your time. Probably very apropos to our current date and age. Thanks for making me...

    This was long before the time of edginess. It's totally worth watching because it's fun sci-fi schlock, but it also used to have boobs in it. It's its own weird thing, but it's a hell of a lot more creative and steps out of bounds a lot more than the vast majority of shows nowadays. They...
