    I haven't had a phone case in like 6 years. I just put it in my pocket and try not to break it. Usually I succeed. I'm livin la vida loca.

    It seems like one tribe is always a shit show in the 3 tribe seasons. Brawn is a mess but I have rarely seen anyone shoot themselves in the foot as effectively as Jenni did at tribal this week. I thought there was no chance that Alicia would survive that until Jen opened her mouth. Alicia...

    Weed eater is a brand of string trimmers. And electric isn't really giving up much to gas powered these days, particularly for something like a string trimmer. If you're doing heavy shit then you still need gas but if you're just edging your lawn and shit the cordless ones are much more...

    NFL 2016 Offseason Thread - Fins' Quest to Defend Their Crown

    Yeah, if you could trade him for something valuable then I wouldn't hesitate to let him go, but if you're just going to release him and then sign some other washed up free agent or blow a first round pick on somebody that is not especially likely to make a starter, let alone a star then you...

    It's the right move I think. If there was some obviously better option available I would say go for it but just like a lot of other QBs in the NFL, he seems overpaid until you look at who you could replace him with that's better.

    They do. I don't have any experience with them but the new lithium ion powered cordless tools are really impressive so it may not be a total joke. Amazon.com : Makita XCU02Z 18V X2 LXT Lithium-Ion (36V) Cordless Chain Saw (Bare Tool Only) : Patio, Lawn Garden

    Better Call Saul

    I agree that Chuck looks down on Jimmy and he can't stand the idea of him becoming a "respectable" lawyer because he hasn't "earned it" in Chuck's mind. He bases his own self esteem on his accomplishments in the law and having Jimmy weasel his way into a similar level of respectability is...

    Can't really go wrong with Husqvarna or Stihl. I have one of each and they are both good. Electric chainsaw is a toy.

    I still think some team should pick up Manziel, Griffen, and Kaepernick and let them fight it out in training camp. Cleveland would be a prime candidate.

    Replacing ground meat only isn't that helpful IMO because it's not like you can make steaks without making ground beef. Ground beef is the trimmings, undesirable cuts, and bulls/older animals that would be too tough to cut up normally. If this stuff comes out, the meat industry is still going...

    My DirecTV DVR is starting to have the occasional long pause lately where it doesn't respond to the remote for 10+ seconds but they're nowhere near as bad as what you're talking about. I hope that's not going to be my future. Since I'm paying $30 fucking dollars a month in equipment rental...

    When I worked a desk I did all my message board posting from work as well. Now I actually have to go outside and get shit done so most of my posting is done in the evenings. This works out all right because I haven't played video games for the last 7 years and porn viewing doesn't usually take...

    Stephen King's The Dark Tower

    I think 4 was my favorite but the whole book is a flashback to Roland's youth. I enjoyed book 5 but thought it got kind of stupid in 6 and 7.

    Red Lobster is a mystery to me. They have horrible seafood at the same prices as places with good seafood, yet they are a national chain that some people seem to love and I have never been able to figure out why that is.

    Broad City

    The episode was very funny. Comparing this show to Workaholics is an insult to Broad City, it is 1000X funnier than Workaholics. I am probably a creep for saying this, but the chain around her waist all episode was pretty hot. Kind of reminiscent of slave Leia in Return of the Jedi.

    I like the idea of that CAT phone but the fact that it's made by a company that makes licensed Catepillar shit instead of a company that makes phones makes me think it's going to be a shit show at least on the software side. Maybe if they just go with stock android it will be okay. Looks...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Or maybe a Blazing Saddles ending where the white walkers chase everyone off the GOT set and onto the set of "Girls" where Kit Harrington is beheaded right in front of Lena Dunham and then everyone just goes for a pastrami sandwich at Katz's deli.

    Not amazing. We have a pizza place here that does the same thing and it's just a big blob of blandness in the middle of my pizza. Fuck that.

    I think Ricotta is kind of bland and shitty, especially on pizza, but I do agree that cottage cheese in lasagna is a little weird although it doesn't taste bad.

    I heard that rather than focusing on the brains/beauty/brawn aspect the just cast people that they thought would be good on the show and then shoe-horned them into the categories and in some cases (Alecia on brawn, Tai on beauty, sort of everyone on beauty, etc) it doesn't really make sense but...

    Funeral arrangements?

    My Mom was only 56 when my Dad died, but still chose to get one of those joint stones with her name already on it. Then 4 years later she got remarried. Seems like kind of an awkward situation to me. Her new husband says he's fine with her being buried with Dad but the name isn't even right...

    I like the idea of having your brother in law do the BBQ. It just doesn't seem right for you to have to play hostess too hard at your husband's funeral and he would probably like an excuse to use the new smoker as well as to be able to help with the funeral. A lot of funerals around here are...

    Yeah, even if he did do it, it's not exactly rape. It definitely crosses a line beyond "boys will be boys" but it was 20 years ago and there have been no similar allegations since so I don't think it's really going to destroy his legacy. Not too surprising that a kid that was elevated as much...
