    NFL 2017 Offseason - Where does Romo go?

    These were surprisingly funny. Here's This Year's Batch Of Hilarious NFL Valentine's Day Cards - Daily Snark

    Last Week Tonight with John Oliver

    Yeah, but every single episode bitched about him. Sure, maybe he didn't only focus on Trump, but holy shit give it a rest. I stopped watching early in the year (early Summer?) and it was every single fucking episode. Yeah, I can buy that maybe around the election you can't avoid it, but it was...

    Last Week Tonight with John Oliver

    The show also jumped the shark early last year, when Obama was still in office. This isn't really new, it was literally all of the last season. And Gunnar, you might have a better point if every fucking show last season wasn't him bitching about Trump. That's all they fucking did. Will they...

    The TSP is one of the best deals you can get as far as a 401 plan. An 80/20 split in C/S funds mimics a total market index fund pretty well. And even though it sounds like Blazin convinced you to stick with the TSP, I can explain better. With the TSP, you are only allowed two distributions...

    Steam Deals and Digital Sales

    Stardew Valley is awesomely addictive. Subnautica was pretty cool but in early testing the last time I played it. Haven't touched it in a long time, so it may be a more interesting game at this point

    When does laziness cross the line into depression?

    What about guilt because I don't actually do shit at work? Like, I feel guilty that I'm not doing shit, but I'm not about to start putting any effort into it. When I'm at home I'm more active (workout 3-4 times a week, generally work on a house project every other weekend, etc).

    NHL 2016-17 Season

    I feel like I've seen this show before. Several times. Caps get hot from January to March to win the President's Cup and then have an early exit from the playoffs. I really fucking hope this is the year they get it together.

    Last Week Tonight with John Oliver

    He really did have a formula a few seasons ago. It was basically investigative journalism for the younger demographic, which is something we don't see much in general anymore. But they ruined it. I refuse to watch ever again. Even if they turn it back into the old show, I can't support the...

    Investing General Discussion

    For some reason I was thinking 401k for the management company, and not IRA. Are you basically invested in all of those funds through Ameritrade? And if so, how did she end up in such a broad variety? If I were you, I'd contact Vanguard and have them transfer all of it. There's no reason for...

    While I'm always a huge fan of Vanguard funds, if you do as Blazin says, double check what the IRA management fees are. Vanguard is great until you notice that the management company has tacked on a 1.5% management fee and instead of paying .15%, you're now paying 1.65%.

    American Crime Story

    This is on Netflix now. Just finished it, and I don't get the criticism. I really enjoyed it. I think it's because I was young enough to remember parts of it (mostly the car chase), but too young to actually understand what was going on (barely remember any of the trial). I also thought the...

    Poll Button up or button down?

    Feel like it's easier to line up the bottom and work my way up. Even if I'm planning on wearing a tie, when I'm getting ready I'm not buttoning that top button until the last minute.

    Just watched a MidOne LD game and holy shit I've never seen a game so dominated before. Not even smurf accounts. Just absolutely insane.

    NFL Postseason 2017 - Where Romo Gets His Ring

    Just two years at the top of your position? That's a shitty low bar you're setting. And it makes Jacoby not getting in, again, look even worse. The best lineman on the best offensive line of all time, and only has 1 more year of eligibility before the senior squad.

    It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia

    That might be a new classic. At first I thought they were doing the red button meme (hero vs bigot), but it went a completely different direction. Elbows too sharp and "if it smells like shit, you must acquit" killed me.

    C9 is a fucking disaster, and Secret seems like a slightly more polished version of C9 right now.

    That Liquid vs B)ears series was really good. Recommend watching the entire thing.

    NFL Postseason 2017 - Where Romo Gets His Ring

    Well shit, I guess Chris Johnson is a shoe in for the HoF then! His 2000 yard season was with a 5.6 average and he also had a 4.9 and 4.5. 4.5 career average. Also has significantly more yards.

    Jason Taylor I'm fine with getting in, but not as a first ballot. That's obscene. Same with Warner.

    NFL 2017 Offseason - Where does Romo go?

    You're not considering the secondary effect of running the ball, and that's running time off the clock; something it seems like Atlanta wasn't all that interested in doing.

    Oh, I didn't even realize that was the other talent. Yeah, fuck that. +2 souls is stupid extra damage.

    NFL Postseason 2017 - Where Romo Gets His Ring

    Terrell Davis and Jason Taylor had absolutely no business getting in this year over some of the other finalists. Kurt Warner probably didn't either. They really fucked up this year.

    DOTA 2

    Not only did they lose their lane, they didn't do any damage to the T1. Windranger changes look kind of crazy, but so does SF. I'm not sure why they felt like SF needed a fucking lifesteal instead of evasion, but I feel like he'll be even harder to kill now. Kunkka also looks to have had a...

    DOTA 2

    Man this game can be infuriating. Before the match, I said I could win my lane against just about anyone no Sniper (mid). About 12-15 minutes in, their Silencer is dominating the shit out of our team and everyone starts giving me crap for losing the lane (turns out Sven and Undying got shit on...

    NFL 2017 Offseason - Where does Romo go?

    The same thing happened with RG3, but I think everyone just assumed it was because he was too dumb to call the right audible, so he wasn't allowed.

    And another. C9 absolutely dominated early and mid game, and then shit it all away vs Bears. Edit: Make that two games in a row this series.

    NFL Postseason 2017 - Where Romo Gets His Ring

    The weird call to me was the delay of game by the punter. There were like 3 seconds left on the clock, delay of game, and then they wound the clock and the quarter ended? Shouldn't the clock have been stopped at 3 seconds?

    You thought it was better because this year was lopsided? Did you not watch the SB last year? The Panthers didn't even show up.

    I know that feeling. Everyone says to change your locks whenever you buy a new house. So we ended up finally getting into ours around noon, and I decide that I'll buy a new lock set and do it myself. Well, fuck me, because the hole for our old lock was much smaller than a new one needed to be...

    Your Team Declarations...

    I feel like this thread was done a long time ago, but no one actually gives much of a shit to go back and keep track of it. I mean, does anyone honestly care what teams someone else roots for? The only time it'd come up is someone trying to act all high and mighty by calling out someone's fandom...

    Nocturnal Animals (2016)

    Torn because Jake Gyllenhaal is probably my favorite actor, but Shannon is a colossal douche. I'll probably watch it, just because it's not like I'm actually going to pay for it.

    NFL Postseason 2017 - Where Romo Gets His Ring

    The next 3 highest yardage totals for a QB were: 414, 377, and 365, all by Kurt Warner (414 was Greatest Show on Turf). Brady had 466. Now granted, he had an entire extra drive for that, but he crushed it. Super Bowl MVP is almost always a QB award anyway, so I don't see a problem with it.

    NFL Postseason 2017 - Where Romo Gets His Ring

    That's a good call. I'm not sure what that challenge was about. It was one of those in the back of my mind I'm thinking, "I hope that timeout doesn't cost them," but I figured it was pretty irrelevant at that point.

    NFL Postseason 2017 - Where Romo Gets His Ring

    Biggest comeback in Super Bowl history by a large margin (10 vs 25). Biggest comeback in NFL playoffs period (93-0 record). What the fuck are you smoking? The game was amazing. Edit: And to address Genj above. Big plays? This one had a TON! There were like 3 or 4 sick catches (Jones' 2...

    NFL Postseason 2017 - Where Romo Gets His Ring

    I know it's been mentioned already, but it's going to really suck for the Falcons next year after their coaching staff is gutted. Someone said they'll end up with a Carolina-esque finish next year, somewhere around 5-11. I wouldn't be surprised.
