    How do you prefer your steak?

    This describes my childhood exactly. Surrounded by well-done-eating savages, I never knew better until I was a teenager and somehow got a medium rare steak (probably forgot to specify, like you) and it was a HOLY SHIT HOW HAVE I LIVED MY LIFE UP TILL NOW moment. Never looked back. This.

    White House Down

    The White House is one of the most disappointing world-famous landmarks you could ever see. It looks so grandiose on TV, movies, and in pictures, but when you walk up to it you realize it's basically a shitty little McMansion. You're like, "is that it?" and then you turn around and realize the...

    How do you prefer your steak?

    Anything over medium is a crime against humanity. And even medium should only be used sparingly.

    I remember playing Dragon Warrior before I learned about saving games. I'd just play the first 30 minutes or so of the game over and over.

    Arkk's Weight Lifting / Fitness Thread

    Is that a girl's Robin costume? Why does it have a skirt instead of the standard underpants? Are the Robin pic and the turkey pic at the same weight? You look like a 12-year-old boy in the turkey pic, but much better in the Robin pic. Maybe it's just the angles.

    Rent Vs. Buy housing

    Any landlord who isn't a piece of shit slumlord should be, yes. I've never had a landlord--in houses or apartments--not take care of maintenance issues.

    Man of Steel

    I really enjoyed the movie, but Lyrical has made me see the light and now I hate it. P.S. Sequel needs more black Lois and hobo Superman (with a holey sock).

    Most recognized brand from each of the 50 states

    It's not just for seafood. Put that shit on fries, chicken, use it in rubs for ribs and steak, the uses are endless. I brought a massive tub of it overseas and shared it with some foreign, third-world savages and it changed their lives. I've never heard of most of these companies: Taco...

    Most recognized brand from each of the 50 states

    GEICO for Maryland? I'd say that's more synonymous with D.C. Should be Old Bay. Do people outside of the mid-Atlantic even know about Old Bay?

    Mad Men

    I don't agree with this. He comes home and randomly says "let's drop everything here and move to California, even though you've got a great job and are actively living your dream of acting in a successful TV show." Don said he needed the move to California, that he couldn't go on like he had...

    Mad Men

    Don really fucked over Megan because she lost an awesome TV role because of him. I'd be insanely pissed if I quit my job to be with someone and then they said "lol j/k bro". I don't get all the Megan hate. She wasn't perfect, but Don was terrible to her while she was being faithful to him...

    Rent Vs. Buy housing

    Thanks for the example. That's exactly the point I was trying to get across: compare the situation you described to the situation I described and it's clear that it's way easier to save up for "the American dream" when you don't live in overpriced areas of the country.

    Rent Vs. Buy housing

    You might not be able to live "well" (of course, "well" is different for every individual) on $2500/month, but that amount of money will go A LOT farther in some areas of the country than others. My whole point is that telling someone to hunker down, suck it up, and give up conveniences in...

    Shaving

    Do it. It literally could not get simpler: you drag a sharp object across your face. With electric razors I was always going over the same area multiple times in multiple directions to get a close-ish shave, and with cartridges I had to be careful about the direction I shaved to avoid...

    I know that feel, bro. I live in the DC metro area and it rustles my jimmies seeing people on here occasionally talk about the enormous, cheap houses they've bought out in the Midwest/South. I've said the same you responded to, about living a decent lifestyle. It's incredibly hard with the...

    I'm glad you posted this. I've been vacillating between renting and buying and it sounds like I'm in a similar boat as you regarding savings. For what it's worth, I'm most likely going to end up renting for several of the reasons people have listed in this thread: "hidden" costs of owning a...

    Yeah the combat is pretty slow coming from WoW. It's not really instantaneous but rather slower and steadier. You kind of get into a rhythm.

    Of all the ones I've used so far I think Derby is by far my favorite, also. I don't think I've used a feather yet, though. Considering I have to change my blades after 1 or 2 days I prefer the cheaper ones.

    Question about Kegs of Beer / Alcohol content.

    I don't know how it's possible to make a blanket statement like "I don't like IPAs" or "I don't like Stouts". Even within a single category of beer the tastes can vary so immensely that it's hard to disregard the entire category.

    The Meat Thread

    I've eaten it probably a dozen or so times, although I'm not a huge fan of it. It always tasted like really low-grade beef to me. I've had it grilled in the form of kabobs, boiled in pasta dishes, and roasted in rice dishes.

    I took the Walmart challenge and bought some steaks in the black package. They were good, but then again, most steak is if you grill it at home and prepare/season it yourself.
