    The Fast Food Thread

    I fucked myself posting that picture earlier. I've been thinking about a flamethrower burger all morning and have no way of getting one short of driving 100 miles round trip on icy roads and it's -8 outside.

    Not an exact comparison, but I'd take a flamethrower from DQ over either of them.

    The Fast Food Thread

    Baconator has the same amount of beef and bacon but less bun and less mayo so I think it has the edge unless I'm in the mood for mayo. The baconator can get a little greasy sometimes which makes it a little hard to eat in the car.

    NFL 2017-18: Watch athletes destroy their brains

    I'm not sure what's up with the Bucs but it seems like something is wrong and maybe it's the coach. Also, the more I see from Jameis Winston the more he seems like a fucking weirdo so it could have something to do with him as well.

    I have never used a case on my phones but I may do it with this one between the edge touching and just how damn slippery the thing is with the glass back.

    Gaming addiction to be added to DSM!?

    I think some people on this thread are taking it a little too personally. I don't think most people would say that someone that plays 10-20 hours of video games a week is an addict, but I think we've all played with people for whom that was more of a daily average than weekly. I was guilded...

    Yuck. The plan was to go see some family 200 miles away for New Years and see the Star Wars movie but I'm thinking that might be out.

    I'm not sold on the edge to edge screen on my S8 either. Who decided having a part to hold on to where you aren't accidentally touching the screen all the time was a bad thing? I think my browser is locking up all the time and then realize that I'm slightly touching the screen with my left...

    Frank Gore is the man. I wonder if he would still be a 49er if they had known he would stay effective for this long. Hell I wouldn't mind seeing him come back to SF for his final season.

    NFL 2017-18: Watch athletes destroy their brains

    Yeah, there's a psychological thing to say "we lost on purpose" in a game when you might lose even if you try your best. Rams vs. Niners is shaping up to be a great rivalry in the next few years.

    NFL 2017-18: Watch athletes destroy their brains

    There were rumors that Belichick was going to let Brady walk and Robert Kraft said no fucking way so they traded Jimmy instead. It is true that you can't pay 2 players 20+ million a year and still put a good team around them so Jimmy was going to be gone in the offseason one way or the other...

    Bitcoins/Litecoins/Virtual Currencies

    Being bought and sold by financial institutions doesn't mean it's not bullshit. It has uses as currency as Cad said, but then you gave the counterpoint to that. It's not a currency if people are hoarding it and the price is wildly volatile, at which point it goes back to being a pyramid scheme.

    Bitcoins/Litecoins/Virtual Currencies

    Because they need morons to keep buying. If something drastically changes in the world and BTC becomes a real currency that people actually buy stuff with, maybe it will become a reasonable investment. Right now it's a pyramid scheme and there's a shitload of people betting that morons will...

    I made a cheese souffle after watching the Good Eats episode of it and I didn't really find it to be that difficult at all. The only thing that went wrong with mine was that it rose so high it hit my oven thermometer and lifted it off of its hook so there was an oven thermometer shaped...

    One of the things I miss about California is hot pastrami sandwiches. I don't know if that's really a California thing but almost every bar had it on the menu in the bay area and I haven't seen one since I left. Ditto for tri-tip sandwiches. The rest of the world needs to get on this shit.

    Survivor

    That's Amanda Kimmel. She was on Seasons 15, 16, and 20 so you probably saw her. The seasons with her and Parvati were high points on Survivor though.

    NFL 2017-18: Watch athletes destroy their brains

    What's funny is that they used to be in the NFC East while the Falcons, Panthers, Rams, and Saints (all east of Dallas) were in the NFC West. Now that the Rams moved to LA the NFC West actually makes sense for the first time ever.

    Survivor

    This is what I was thinking about when she was saying that. I think that's mostly people who are butthurt that their favorite didn't win. Twists in Survivor have never been fair. Maybe if it comes out that they put that in at the last minute strictly to give Ben a chance then they have a...

    Survivor

    Good season and a good winner, even if it did take a twist to keep him in the game. I can't really agree that Chrissy and Ryan played that good a game aside from Chrissy's immunity wins. Both of them did a better job selling themselves than Ben did at FTC and I think that's where their 3 votes...

    I just googled up a recipe. This is the one I used, although I didn't follow it exactly. Pressure Cooker Baby Back Ribs I was pressed for time so I didn't bother with the dry rub, just cut off the silverskin, seasoned them with salt and pepper, threw them in the Instant Pot with half a cup of...

    I have been skeptical of the kitchen gadget fads on this board but I tried the instant pot ribs for my Mom's birthday dinner tonight and they were fuckin money. I was skeptical even when I put them under the broiler but they were great. Not as good as real smoked ribs, but considering I just...

    If he had fumbled out of bounds it would have been Raiders ball at the spot it went out right? Making it a touchback is a pretty huge difference from that. It's really rare so it's probably not important to address but it does seem a little off.

    Does Carr wear eye makeup? I swear he looks like he's got guyliner and mascara on. Either way he has the prettiest eyes in the NFL.

    New DVR came through and I finally got to watch Garoppolo. The kid definitely has it. No reason to franchise him next year, John Lynch should just bend over and spread his cheeks for Jimmy cause it sure looks like he got a franchise QB for a 2nd round pick. That TD to Celek was fucking...

    FWIW, the banana leaves and achiote don't really do much except make the stuff red and look cool while you're cooking. I learned this the hard way after scouring the globe for annatto seeds and banana leaves to make Robert Rodriguez's puerco pibil from the movie Once Upon a Time in Mexico...

    I liked the overhead angle. You get to see the field the way the qb/rb sees it. It was especially interesting to see the holes open and close on running plays.

    Yeah, he took it out, put on a glaze, and put it in the oven for a while. The meat was good although not extraordinary, the fat was just weird.

    My brother made a ham with his sous vide gizmo the other night and it was okay but the fat was pretty weird. Very sticky, like you could have thrown it against the wall and it would have stuck. Is that a sous vide thing or did he just get a weird ham?

    Homeland

    I don't agree about the Americans. I mean, if you want to watch a spy thriller, then maybe The Americans isn't for you, but the family stuff is not shoehorned into that show, it's 100% central to the story. In Homeland it's mostly a distraction. The Russian Illegals were nothing like CIA...

    Homeland

    It has always sort of seemed like they're trying to shoehorn in the "effect on the family" aspect of being a CIA agent. There's a reason the CIA tends to avoid people who want to have a family and encourages agents to marry each other. There's really no way to be a CIA agent and have a...

    In my case it was the $300 price difference for a larger screen and a stylus. The s8 is also very slippery. Feels like you're holding a little fish.
