    So I was wrong all about all pizza being the same. I went to some fancy-shmancy restaurant last night called Range; apparently it's done by some Top Chef star named Brian Voltaggio. Anyway, the pizza was absolutely fucking awful. It was paper thin--so much that when you picked it up it just...

    If Craigslist is sparse near you, you can also try to find used bikes at a local bike shop. Last year I found an old Trek mountain bike in great condition for $250.

    The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies (2014)

    I'm going to see this movie in every available format just to make sure it gets plenty of money and make up for you no-fun fuddy-duddies who can't find joy in anything.

    Good chicken parm recipe? There are a shitload of them around the internet, but I'm trying to impress a lady so I want something that's above and beyond. If it leads to sex you get a +net.

    The "Shit I just bought" thread

    I bought a Trek 7.1 about a month and a half ago. They had a 7.2 in stock but the difference in price was absurd, something like 450 versus 550+, and I didn't see/feel much of a difference. But yeah, I also upgraded from a really old Trek mountain bike and the difference between that behemoth...

    I love seeing restaurants/fast food places that clearly used to be Pizza Huts, but were retrofitted to become something else. You can always tell because they have that distinctive red, pointed roof. There is a 5 Guys near here that clearly used to be a Pizza Hut, and I've seen a couple random...

    Guardians of the Galaxy (2014)

    Speaking of hearing things, what did Drax say just before he I saw it twice, and both times I couldn't make it out. Something about a metaphor?

    Dude, where is my hair?

    I've been doing mine with the shortest guard on my set of clippers since high school. I've got a lot of thinning at the front-top of my head, so keeping it super short makes that unnoticeable. With a short guard it's extremely easy and only takes me 3 - 5 minutes.

    If you've got a Total Wine near you, I believe they do tastings on weekends. It probably won't be as much of a variety as at a vineyard, but it's super convenient.

    I don't see the point of buying boxed wine. You can get perfectly good bottled wine for 8 - 15 dollars each, which isn't expensive.

    I don't consider myself a wine drinker, but I drink, on average, 3 - 4 glasses of red wine a week. I like wines that have more of a fruit flavor to them, and I'd suggest trying some Pino Noirs to get started. One of my favorite is Cavit Pino Noir because it's super easy to drink and doesn't have...

    Weight Loss Thread

    I drink tons of black coffee (5+ cups a day, on work days) and it gives me explosive, liquidy shits for sure. Fortunately, I generally hit the gym first thing in the morning when I've only got a single cup in me, so it's not a problem. If I know I'm going to the gym later in the evening, I...

    Dude, where is my hair?

    If you shave it down and go for the Jason Statham look, make sure you hit the gym if you're a doughy/pudgy dude. The only way to look good as a fat bald guy is if you're basically a massive, leather-clad biker. Otherwise, you've gotta be somewhat fit to not look like a doofus.

    I don't get the "save your fave" thing. I still see more than one variety of last year's chips in the grocery store: chicken and waffles and cheesy garlic bread. I haven't seen the Sriracha ones, but they are probably out there, too. I get that voting will lead to one winner, but I wonder if...

    The ones I thought were these were actually Chile Limon flavor. I gave them a try and they were very tasty, extremely hot, but with a little too much lime flavor. My main gripe with this variety of Doritos is that they're rolled. I understand they're rolled so the flavor explodes, but they just...

    I hate how trailers nowadays spoil everything about the movie, so I found it less "bait and switch" and more of a refreshing experience to not know what was coming next. Pretty big plot spoiler below, to demonstrate my point: Anyway, it was a fun movie and I don't regret paying to see it...

    I've only seen the 4 new flavors at Walgreens so far. Giant, which is my usual grocery store, only seems to be carrying last year's flavors still. I plan on trying all of these new flavors, but I really doubt any of them are going to be as good as the Cheesy Garlic Bread ones from last year. The...

    I felt the same as Intrinsic. They aren't bad, but they're nothing special. I think they basically taste like a standard cheese/cheddar chip with a slight hint of bacon flavor. They sell them, but they don'tsellthem. When I bought the Bacon Mac and Cheese yesterday, there were maybe 1 - 2 bags...

    To be fair, I never said I had eaten that many. I think I could, but I've never tried. Is it really that much, though? I've eaten 90 pizza rolls and a full bag of Doritos on several occasions, and I think that is a lot more filling. I think most of you are bullshitting about how easily you get...

    Judging from the trailer, I imagine he's going to start off as a noble/honorable ruler and throughout the movie slowly devolve into a tyrant as he becomes more and more vampire-ish, thus saving his family/people but at a huge cost. I'm looking forward to this one and I'll be seeing it in...

    Like sumdain x said, 99% of that stuff is in the first 2 minutes of the movie during a narration about Hercules' exploits, which are later confirmed to be nothing but bullshit stories told to scare his enemies before facing him.
