I definitely think we've reached a point were a lot of the people here are starting the episode with the plate of cat shit already under their nose. Possibly they started the whole season that way since it's the first one that is ahead of the books. Seriously folks, it's a lot more enjoyable to...

I'm glad Rickon is dead. Nothing against him, I just didn't want another story line to follow.

Is After the Thrones available immediately online or something? My DVR doesn't pick it up until Monday night.

I don't know this but I bet it was based on theBattle of Cannaewhere Hannibal wiped out an 86,000 man Roman army in a very similar tactic. Great battle scene though, and great episode even though we all knew the knights of the vale were going to save the day.

I helped do that with beef roasts once. Never heard of doing it with ribs.

Flank steak was on the menu at a local restaurant here for a while and I had it once and it was great. They even claimed to cook it directly on hot coals. They took it off the menu though and I haven't really seen it anywhere else.

Yeah, it hasn't been too common in restaurants and such just because it's an unusual presentation and not what people think of when they order a steak. It's fucking great though, and unfortunately the word is out on it so it's not cheap anymore. Another thing I almost never see in Montana...

Sear it over very high heat, as hot as you can manage. Cook it medium rare, let it rest, and then slice it thin across the grain. Make it this way it's as good as any steak IMO.

I kinda like that "After the Thrones" show on HBO. They really just picked 3 nerds to talk about the show and resisted the urge to put a comedian or something on there so good on them for that. I also noticed that they had aDragon Egg Cookie Jarin the background. I think I need one of those.

You are doing your skirt steak wrong sir.

My impression was that Varys was grooming Aegon but then decided to scrap that idea when someone better (Dany) came along, although I don't think we quite reached that point in the books.

Yes, fuck these people. I have seen that at my old office as well. The only explanation I can think of is that they are done drinking coffee for the day but want to make it look like they didn't take the last cup and leave the pot empty because nobody thinks that shit is drinkable.

Maybe you should work there. I feel the same way. It was not a great scene but worth it to see Missandei smiling.

I'm not above being a snob sometimes but I can't do it with coffee. I have drunk 1000 gallons of Folgers in my life and I think it tastes fine. The only way to make coffee that I don't like is to make it too weak or with shitty water. My brother has a fancy burr grinder and he grinds beans...

Now you have to buy 10 monitors so you can jerk it to 10 simultaneous full screen HD porn videos.

The grill was a rental sadly, but yeah it was awesome. It was arguably a really stupid idea to do a pig on a grill we had never used before when we needed to feed 300 people but it turned out great.

I have one of those and it's definitely better than nothing, but it's still not exactly set it and forget it. The one I have is the stoker. (Buyers Guide - Stoker Cooker Compatibility) My favorite thing I have used it for was when we cooked a pig for my Mom's wedding. The thing was cooking all...

God damn you. I have been obsessively reading about Yoder pellet grills ever since you posted this. Now GMGs and traegers look like such a piece of junk by comparison. You are going to wind up costing me $1000 over the GMGs I was looking at.

True Detective is probably dead - AV Club Might be for the best.

I've had Schrodinger's cat explained to me at least 5 times and it sounded like nonsense every time. They conclusion I drew is that understanding of quantum physics is unnecessary for me to live a full life and I am going forward with this assumption.

Well, I think that they were definitely prejudiced by the narrative that they had given themselves going in. Also, most people who have been on a jury say that they already had their mind made up who they were voting for and very few people are swayed by what is said at the FTC even if they say...

I heard apodcastyesterday where somebody had talked to Jason after the finale and he said that he wasn't aware of how much Aubrey had controlled the game and he didn't think most of the jury was either. He said that Aubrey had described it at length at the final tribal (which wasn't shown) but...

MS deserves the bad press but I think 90% of the people crying about the upgrades are just looking for something to complain about and will probably be better off with Win10 anyway. My Mom called me and asked if she should upgrade to 10 when the thing popped up and I just told her yes, go...

It would be funny if Rickon warged into one of Ramsey's hounds and killed him with it.

This is what I'm talking about, and I think there have been other examples. Not really a big deal, I just notice it because it seems like the wax seal is useless they way they put them on. They probably just don't want to make a new one for every take.

Something's been bugging me with the way they do wax seals on this show. The seal is on the napkin ring that the letter is rolled up in but you can just slide it off. Isn't the point of sealing something with wax to make it so the message can't be tampered with unless the seal is broken...

That looks pretty tasty.

Boy, I'm the least emotional person I know and I would never say something like this.

These people are idiots. American cheese is just cheddar with some other cheese and some emulsifiers added to it to make it melt more easily. You don't have to like it but it's not some magic technosubstance that is somehow unhealthy (any more than any other cheese). Just a couple weeks ago...

With regard to Varys trying to put a Targaryan in charge I'm late to the party and there are people who know more than me about this but my impression was that historically the Targaryans were either great leaders or totally insane. The Mad King was obviously one of the insane ones but a lot of...

I know you guys are fucking around, but I think what I said is true. I didn't mean to come off as complaining about this particular string of posts, just making a general statement.

There is definitely a lot of shit with food that is just being pretentious, particularly when white people start telling you about "authentic" ethnic food. Now maybe you are angry about cottage cheese in lasagna because it's different than what you're used to and maybe it's because you're a...

Since I read the books I didn't think Arya would ever become a faceless man and last night's episode was pretty careful to spell out that she was definitely not no one no matter how many times she says she is. I don't know what she's going to do but I will be shocked if she actually becomes a...

Sure, but the most disappointed people were the ones that wrote an encyclopedia's worth of theories about stuff that turned out to be meaningless or misguided. Do you remember the LOST thread on this board? It was as long as this one or possibly longer.

He doesn't need to be a savior but we have read too much of his boring ass story for him to not influence the main plot in some significant way. I hope the reason the book hasn't come out isn't that GRRM has just failed at tying this shit all together so it makes sense but they're going with it...

You have to look at the current output ratings on them. To charge a modern smartphone decently they need to put out at least 2 amps (different than mAH) 3 amps if you have a USB C phone and you want it to fast charge.

Translation: I had no idea WTF was going on which is why I never once voted for the person that was going home.

Jesus, this is too offended to get on behalf of some peppers. Just put more on at the end if you're that worried about it. They're very affordable.

From what I heard the cousin IT episode was actually totally unplanned and Probst had no idea that she was going to do that. I believe it based on how flustered he got and the fact that it was a long ass time until the first commercial break. I don't think that they need to talk to every...

What are the knobs at the bottom? It has an electric lighter or something?
