    The Higher Education Thread: Justify Poor Life Choices

    Ouch. I don't know anything about ITT, but that would be pretty rough to go through a whole degree program and then have your school shut its doors a month before you graduate, especially since those credits probably won't transfer well at all.

    The Higher Education Thread: Justify Poor Life Choices

    This is a fundamental problem with college IMO. You are supposed to pick a field when you are an 18 year old retard and then you spend tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars going to school and when you graduate you still have almost no idea what working in that field is even like. Then when...

    I just looked up my favorite SF Chinatown Dim Sum place and found out that they closed in 2011. Gold Mountain was a huge place on Broadway that seated like 2-300 people. I loved taking my family from Montana there not just for the weird food, but because sometimes you would be in there with...

    We eat them every year at branding time. I think that they are different than what you would get a restaurant because they come from a 4-6 week old baby calf where I think a restaurant could only get them from older animals. They aren't bad. Really nothing can be too bad when it's rolled in...

    I'm going to be so disappointed if Kaepernick isn't released by the first regular season game. Every time I see a trade headline I hope it's about him.

    How does it feel to be so wrong? I think you are remember JFC and not Deadwood. The dialog was the best part of the show.

    Best pot pie is turkey pot pie. It's one of the few occaisions where I would take turkey over pretty much any meat but I love me a Marie Callendar's Turkey Pot Pie (I just don't read the nutrition information to find out that they are 1100 calories).

    The Wire: Greatest Show Ever Made

    Snoop was a character that if you thought of it you would think that sounds too cheesy to pull off but watching the show you buy into the character 100%. Also, the actor was sort of a little miss gangster IRL and was pretty much just playing herself. Huh?

    Watching the 49ers-Chargers game last night the stadium was mostly empty but I wondered how many people came just to boo Kaepernick. They sure seemed to enjoy it.

    He's a NFL Network talking head. Former scout and he does a podcast called "Move the Sticks" with Bucky Brooks on NFL.com. It's pretty good actually, they really get into the nitty gritty of evaluating players if you're into that sort of thing. NFL.com | Move the Sticks with Daniel Jeremiah

    Daniel Jeremiah ranked Goff as the 4th best rookie quarterback through 3 preseason games on his podcast this week.

    The "Shit I just bought" thread

    I am usually skeptical of magic kitchen gadgets but this one intrigues me. If it really poaches eggs that quickly and doesn't overcook them that alone would be worth the price to me. 10K+ reviews on Amazon and it's at 4.5 stars. That's a pretty strong recommendation.

    Yes, Facebook calls all of your acquaintances "friends" which may not be technically correct. What does that have to do with anything?

    Facebook Theories (Why everyone I know likes it but me)

    Facebook is fantastic. I use it daily. It's a great way to keep in touch with friends and family without having to actually call them. I like being able to just go to one place and see what my family is up to, see pictures of their kids and vacations, and maintain basic contact with old...

    BMI Thread

    Yeah, if you're a man with any amount of muscle on you the BMI charts are going to say you're overweight. The fact that they don't even differentiate between men and women pretty much tells you how useful it is. If you really want to know if you're in shape, find out your body fat percentage...

    I like feta in salads and such but it's too bland to hold it's own on a pizza. And yeah raw onions are pretty much universally disliked by children and adults who stopped developing their palate at age 5.

    I don't think the other sauces taste bad, but if I order a pizza and something with god damn barbecue sauce shows up, it's like I ordered a stromoli and you brought me a jelly roll. Yeah, they are similar in some ways, and they taste good, but it's not what I fucking ordered.

    I'm down for some raw celery in either egg or potato salad as long as it's chopped very fine. And yeah, celery is part of both french mirepoix and cajun trinity as an aromatic in which case it definitely contributes to the flavor.

    I still think something is up with Kaepernick. He and the 49ers hate each other but have to pretend that they don't because $$$. If they can't trade him and they're not going to play him they should just cut him. I guess if he gets injured this year they have to pay him his bonus for the next...

    I am fat and nearly 40 I can easily touch my toes, yet my friend in HS who was like 5' 5" and 99 lbs couldn't do it at age 18. I think it must be genetic.

    Ever go out to Zachary's in the east bay? I used to love that place. I used to go to Round Table for the lunch buffet but as far as just ordering a pizza it is better than the big chains but not so much better to be worth paying triple the price IMO.
