    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Ian McShane would have been awesome as Tywin Lannister. Not that Charles Dance wasn't, he totally was, but McShane would have hit that one out of the park as well.

    True Detective

    I haven't read this thread but I have to say despite the fact that I was fairly tuned out in the first few episodes and thus have no idea what is going on now, I have enjoyed the last 3 episodes quite a bit. If the finale is awesome I may have to go back and re-watch the first half of the...

    Conan O'Brien sued for lifting jokes from Twitter

    That's my impression as well. Read the news, shit out 50 hack jokes about the stories on twitter, then wait for someone to do something similar on TV so you can sue them. Fuck this guy.

    Adventures with Lyrical: Buying a Business (REPOST)

    There is a lot of this going on in the cattle business right now. Ranchers are making significant profits for the first time since the late 70's and they have been operating at break even or below for most of their lives so they can't stand the idea of paying income tax. There are tons of new...

    The Dallas Cowboys Memorial (2015 Off-Season) Thread

    Ditto for Kaepernick. His contract sounded big but he's never getting most of that money and they can cut him any time with pretty much no consequence.

    Bluetooth speakers?

    Anybody know of an AM/FM radio that also has bluetooth and is rugged enough to survive in a shop? The only one I have found is theMakita LXTone which makes sense for me because I'm already heavily invested in Makita LXT power tools, but it costs $150 which seems a little steep to me to listen...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    This has to be wrong. It has already been confirmed by the many TV experts on this forum that it is not possible for any TV series to go more than 7 seasons. HBO must be mistaken.

    Coding for 8th Graders

    Mindstorms uses visual programming which is not that common but it is used in the real world. In my old job it was used extensively with LabVIEW to build automated testers and such.

    The Dallas Cowboys Memorial (2015 Off-Season) Thread

    It is pretty funny that people think that 49er fans are thugs now since for as long as I can remember the Raiders fans have made fun of 49er fans for eating quiche and drinking wine at their tailgate parties and in general being pussies.

    Yeah, a lot of bots have a wedge on the front, and they did actually use their arm during the match. I don't see the problem.

    BattleBots

    I don't mind the filler personally, even the corny WWE type stuff. I hope having the show on national TV will bring in more builders though. When half the top guys are the same guys that were doing it 15 years ago when the show was on before it doesn't show much diversity.

    No posts on the finale? I would not have expected Bite Force to come out on top at all but apparently his driver had fought Tombstone multiple times and used that to his advantage. Seems like the formula is to have enough armor to take a few whacks, hit him from the side, and jam up the blade...

    That bacon has way to much fucking sugar on it. It's sad. I had the BLT which is all bacon so I imagine that the one with roast beef on it would be better than the BLT but I didn't finish it which I would not have believed was possible for me with a BLT. My dog ate the last third of it and I...

    Naked and Afraid

    Producers try to get people to fight and say crazy shit and edit to make things look more dramatic than they are on every reality show. If they really give people candy bars that's sort of bullshit, but the rest of that doesn't sound any different than what is done on every reality show. Honora...

    The Dallas Cowboys Memorial (2015 Off-Season) Thread

    I think they should keep the divisions but if your division doesn't field a team with a winning record you forfeit your playoff spot to the team with the best record that's not in the playoffs (assuming they are better than 8-8).

    Coding for 8th Graders

    I am not a coder and someone will probably tell me I'm way out of date but I learned basic in high school 20 years ago and even then people were saying "Basic is useless, no one uses it anymore", which was true, but every language I learned after that was just taking what I learned to do in...

    This thread is trying to compete with True Detective for shittiest TV forum thread. It needs more popsicle to put it over the top though.

    Naked and Afraid

    I think you're probably right. The first night might be embarrassing boner time but it would be pretty awkward since you just met and after that you've been staring at her dirty, smelly twat all day in the sweltering heat not to mention you're starving and covered with bug bites and it's...

    Bill Simmons leaving ESPN.

    Have you guys checked out the NFL network podcasts? I listen to Dave Dameshek and Daniel Jeremiah and they are both entertaining. Mostly football talk but they touch on other sports during their seasons. I haven't tried the Around the NFL podcast or Coach's show but they might fill in for the...

    Do you watch this show? At least 50% of them try the mud thing at the beginning, then they get eaten alive anyway and then after a few days you don't see the mud on them anymore. It's probably better than nothing but it doesn't seem very effective.

    I was at In-N-Out once when it was super crowded and there was a pregnant chick finishing the burgers and her pregnant belly was hanging on the table where she was putting on buns and sauce and such and it was all covered with ketchup/mustard/mayo/thousand island. It didn't exactly keep me from...

    So like 5 years ago I wisely decided to use my Shun serrated bread knife to try to saw an electrical connector in half. I broke a tooth out of it. It still cut fine and it was totally my fault so I didn't even try to send it in but a week ago I was sending in my other knives to be sharpened...

    When I was managing low wage employees (security guards when I was in college) I realized that it really pays off to be willing to work around college student's schedules and let them work part time. The only decent people we ever got were college students and older people that were looking to...

    Naked and Afraid

    I don't think the mosquito net is a bad choice when you know that there will be other people there and the pot and fire starter are likely going to be there anyway. One of the main things people deal with on this show is lack of sleep due to bugs and apparently it can also be used to catch minnows.

    He is mostly controlling himself so far in the edit at least but he is crazy. I would have been making fun of him too if I was watching him try to use that piece of shit bow that he brought as his one survival item. BTW, they must have banned fire starters for this? Seems like everybody is...

    It seems like the weakness of the horizontal spinners is that their weapon is almost as hard on them as it is on the opponent. If your can build your bot tougher than the spinner bot you can just go head to head and let it destroy itself on your armor. If witch doctor had been able to flip...

    Yes. In blind taste tests everyone picks medium rare regardless of what they say their preference is before the test. The rare people are just showing off and the medium+ people are just squeamish at the way it looks. I even had a well done eater tell me once that he ate a medium rare steak...

    Yeah, fuck well done eaters. Half the time if someone asks for a well done steak I just give them whichever one looks the worst and say "I think this one is more done". If they don't like it then they are welcome to take it back out to the grill and ruin it themselves. The only thing on the...

    Car accident and repair questions.

    Yeah, definitely call your insurance and see what they say. It's not likely that you will be able to get that fixed for real at a body shop for less than the car is worth. Those guys will rarely do much of anything for under $3k and that is pretty serious damage. I would either get a new car...
