    Pretty sure most QB's look awesome at their pro days. That's the whole point of them.

    Pretty sure he's bipolar or something. There's no way he'll be invited back to Survivor, so just get Heroes vs Villians out of your mind.

    That episode was hilarious. Gross, but hilarious. Everything after Adam did PCP was gold.

    Yeah, well it's going to be 90 here the next two days (32C?).

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    Yeah, I'd say just keep dating her and never get married. Because once you do, it will only get worse. Just delay the wedding until you get tired of her shit. Those would be some major red flags.

    Vikings

    I like that they don't hold any punches. Kill random people who don't deserve it? Sure, why not? I thought for sure they'd draw out the shit in their village for a few episodes, but fuck that. They got this shit moving! My only issue is Ragnar and the monk. Seems like he should've just killed...

    sitting on your ass > getting hurt in combat

    As far as knowing they did something badass, the military has cheapened the bronze star quite a bit. It's basically an end of deployment award for most officers (and senior enlisted in a lot of cases). If it's a bronze star with 'V' device, however, then you can be pretty sure it's for something...

    The Walking Dead

    I didn't understand that whole shot of Hershel in the car, checking his handgun. If it was foreshadowing, I still would've disliked the shot because I feel it's so heavyhanded (just like people constantly checking their magazines in movies/tv to make sure the ammo they never used was still...

    sitting on your ass > getting hurt in combat

    There are already commendation and achievement medals that cover this sort of thing. There's no reason for this medal whatsoever. Placing it above a bronze star is just fucked. When you have a valor award that rates lower than this piece of shit, that's just wrong. Shouldn't be any higher...

    The Walking Dead

    They still haven't explained his motivations for shit yet, either. Basically a guy who is a humanitarian, rescuing people for his compound, but a complete pyschopath otherwise. His actions make absolutely no god damn sense.

    The Walking Dead

    And then they gloss over the 6+ months between seasons 2 and 3. Right after we're forced to sit through an entire season of them fucking around on a farm. Oh, and then potentially awesome characters like Tyreese's crew? We get fuckall of them.

    2013 NFL Offseason and Draft

    Yeah, had the Redskins had the means/cap room, I think Harvin would've been a great fit. Since Seattle runs a very similar, fast offense, you'd have to think he'll be an awesome weapon.

    The Walking Dead

    Not only is the story awful, but all of the characters outside of Darryl are fucking terrible too. It wasn't but a few weeks ago that someone was saying they liked Glen. I feel like he's one of the worst.

    Survivor 26: Caramoan

    I was in the Army with a guy similar to him. He wasn't lazy, but his confrontational attitude was identical. Plus, he was a bald, black guy (not fat as shit though). You could get along with him most of the time, but then he'd just be an asshat. Good soldier otherwise though.

    With how cheap rookies are under the new CBA though, it seems like you would keep both for depth. Just in case.

    I was just curious if it was an option that more people weren't considering. How's he like it, and if you've seen it, does it...look like grass? Seems like it'd have a higher upfront cost, but not having to water, cut, or basically take care of it in any way seems like it'd make it pretty...

    Anyone ever put in artificial grass? Something like field turf, but without the rubber pellets and cheaper.

    Survivor 26: Caramoan

    The last two weeks, they've shown previews of Hantz Jr that I don't think were actually on the show. The one for next week though, holy shit...motherfucker is crazy. Also, Shamar is such a little bitch. Fuck that dude.

    Meant property tax. I looked up several properties in the area and they were around $1000-1700 a year. Not worried about PMI if I go VA.

    Homeowners

    I'm considering taking the dive into home ownership. The wife and I are living in the desert in California. Where we are we're paying $1200 monthly for rent. The average price on a comparable home is in the $110,000-150,000 range, which the internet tells me puts the monthly payment at anywhere...

    I imagine Penner is just the type of person who as long as he gets his calories can be satisified. But a lot of the contestants seem like the type who would gorge on donuts if they could. So they bitch about rice and beans because it's not what they want. Then when they get a food reward go...

    I was thinking that as I was watching. Like, whoever was in charge of those scenes must have really liked that underwater face splash shot. I was sure after the second one it'd be done, but they kept coming!

    I tiled a floor with absolutely no experience. I'd imagine doing a backsplash isn't that much harder, and possibly easier since it's a smaller area to work on. You should be fine.

    I was thinking something would have already. Towards the end where Hammond was cooking and Jeremy was looking at the map in the rain before calling them over, they did a close up shot of the stove with kettle sitting there unattended. I thought for sure the next shot after them talking was going...

    Taxes

    Depends on your filing status, but you get taxed a certain percent on the amount that falls into that bracket. For a single filer, $0 to $8,700 is taxed at 10%, so a max of $870. $8,701 to $35,350 is taxed at 15%, so a max of $3,997.50 (plus the $870 from the previous bracket, $$4,867.50)...

    I feel like Arrested Development is lost in all this House of Cards talk. Yeah, House of Cards is a big budget that they fronted for, but Arrested Development is a similar situation to a cable network buying the rights to a network show to produce (current example being Cougartown). That's...

    Definitely a better episode. The scenes with Rick and Morgan were great. All the shit with Carl was fucking terrible though. I don't know how you all can stand that fucking kid.

    Aychamo missed the important part, where he says "we'd consitently have a full room for lunch on the weekdays." So basically, he worked in a restaurant over the summer.

    For some reason I read this as you arguing that piracy increases your costs for legitimately buying media, since you're having to pay for the people who would otherwise be buying. But do you really think the companies would drop their prices if all pirates started legitimately purchasing things...
