    Pets

    Forget the goldfish. They get way too big for the type of tanks you've got and they are really dirty. Not good pets IMO, I don't know why they became the default aquarium fish because they kind of suck as aquarium fish and they can't live in a bowl for more than a few days unless you're...

    My home town is getting a combination KFC and A&W soon. Honestly I didn't know that A&W was still a thing aside from the root beer.

    This house is on our ranch so we will never sell it so resale isn't much of a concern for me.

    Smokers / Grills

    Those things look really nice. The firebox is in the middle instead of on the end so it should have much better performance as a grill. If I didn't have a pellet grill already I would be so hot for that thing.

    I'm hoping '79 was late enough that there won't be asbestos but I think I"ll get it tested. No way I'm paying pros to get rid of it, but if it's asbestos I might decide to just live with it. It's got electric heat in the ceiling so I don't know if that would have made them more likely to use...

    Yeah, they must be popular because many grocery shops in Chinatown sell them. I still like the idea of someone getting a box of those in the mail with no explanation.

    Any time I was in Chinatown and saw those dried seahorses I wanted to just buy like a backpack worth of them, take them to another state, and mail them to my brother with no return address. Never actually did it though.

    Anyone ever scraped a popcorn ceiling? I'm really debating whether to tackle it. On the one hand it's a classic 1979 chunky mess with glitter in it and everything and I have the flooring all pulled out so there will never be a better time to make a huge mess. On the other hand I don't know...

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    If the refs can keep the Patriots out of the Superbowl then I support it. I think my worst case scenario for this year is the 49ers losing to the Ravens again. The only consolation would be not having to watch Ray Lewis jump around like an idiot this time.

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    I don't know if I'd say stacking the box to stop the run is a new idea vs. the 49ers, it just becomes possible without Kittle and Sanders back there to make you pay for it. The receivers in the Seattle game were horrendous. It seems like Shanahan is giving up on Dante Pettis which is sad...

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    It's pretty shocking to me the situation that the Rams have gotten themselves into. They have like 6 guys making $15M+ a year and they're going to have to pay Ramsey next year and they're probably not going to make the playoffs. Both Goff and Gurley's contracts look like an albatross at this...

    I didn't say it was against the rules. I just said my family always refused to trade anything which makes the game completely random and take forever.

    My favorite thing at KFC used to be the deep fried apple pies. I haven't been near one for years though so I don't know if they're still good. A combination KFC/A&W is currently being built in my hometown though so maybe I can find out soon.

    I've only played Monopoly once with people who were actually willing to trade properties and it was 100x more fun. In the past I've only played with people who just buy up all the properties and then go around for 300 hours until someone finally wins. Trading properties made the game shorter...

    I know I'm really late to the party but I finally got to a town with a Popeye's and tried the sandwich and I thought it was fantastic. No lines either since this is Montana and there's only white people here. All chicken sandwiches should have pickles on them.

    I don't think there were "a lot of articles" about Kaep's improvement. There was one article where a guy showed like 3 plays from the season where Kaep went to his second read and then declared it proof that he was a good quarterback. Gabbert, who beat him out as a starter was third string at...

    Marinades will never penetrate meat, injected or not. Salt is the only thing that will so you can salt things ahead of time and see a benefit but spices and marinades you might as well wait until you're ready to cook...

    Coons are pretty good killers. We had a mother coon and 5 babies get into the coop once and they ate 28 nearly full grown chickens. We got down there the next morning and all that was left was a bunch of blood and feathers and the odd foot or something but there wasn't one carcass left. They...

    Did you guys watch the episode? There were multiple jokes about how everyone is sick of Tegridy farms. It was like the main joke in the episode. I think it's a safe bet that the regular South Park theme will be back next week.

    Coons killed them during the day? Never seen that. Ours are always free range in the day time and shut in at night and I can't recall ever losing one to predators during the day. Having a dog in the yard is helpful as well.

    1) I don't know. I think most people choose based on appearance but I haven't looked into it. Be sure you get egg laying birds and not meat birds. The meat birds will be full grown to the point where they can barely walk in like 6 weeks and then if you don't butcher them immediately they will...

    On paper the 9ers are getting Joe Staley, Mike McGlinchey, and Kyle Juszczyk back next week and with 4 extra days for Shanahan to scheme up the game plan they should take care of Seattle at home on Monday night. That said, they are definitely going to miss Kwon Alexander and you can't ever rule...

    As a player Elway's superbowl losses were actually more impressive than his wins. The years he won it was thanks to Terrell Davis but those years he lost were all him. Sure he lost the games, actually got humiliated in one of them, but those teams had no business being in the superbowl and...

    It's not virtual currency. It's US dollars. The fact that you have committed to spend it in a specific store doesn't change what it is. Gift cards are the dumbest shit ever. Like giving someone cash but not as good. I still get them sometimes though.
