  1. Exhibit A is pretty good if you follow the various true crime docuseries. It's only 4 eps but it covers some examples of flawed forensic science in criminal cases. The first case is about the video evidence in the Killeen Valero robbery case.
  2. I think we should definitely start calling it, and many other things, a crapahoot.
  3. That was an inch from the keeper's left glove and she had no fucking idea where it was.
  4. Goddammit I stopped paying attention for like 30 minutes and this place turned into a fucking cheese joke. This curd get out of hand really fast.
  5. I would say that is some authentic frontier gibberish, but I believe even Gabby Johnson might be confused by that phrasing.
  6. That is some grade A hero worship right there. I hope her business can somehow find a way to lead her to Baton Rouge in a couple of years.
  7. Any ideas on what "Drip Season" is? Explain like I'm 45.
  8. The VAR PK calls might ruin this tournament for me. It kinda feels like if the NFL reviewed a play in football and called holding on a DB but instead of 10 yards they gave the ball to the offense at the 5 yard line. There's a reason why the ref lets a lot of shit go inside the 18…because one PK can decide the whole game. The one on Chile today was pretty wild since the contact clearly started a yard outside the box. I could not believe they called a PK, that was terrible.
  9. Even the deadliest assassins occasionally go around assassinating random people nobody knows or cares about.
  10. I tell people to avoid knife sets altogether as they include 3 or 4 knives that you may never use. Look at buying a good chef's knife, paring knife, bread knife and boning knife. Optionally, I also use a slicer for larger meats, a santoku and a longer thinner utility knife which can be serrated or not. Get a magnetic strip and mount it on the wall instead of having a block that takes up counter space and collects bacteria. Sur La Table and Williams Sonoma carry a wide variety of brands that are all quality knives. They will get them out of the case and allow you to cut with them. Do this and try a few Asian style and European style knives to see what fits your hand best and if you prefer an 8" or 9" or 10" blade length. If you want to spend less, get a Victorinox chef's knife or Mercer Genesis santoku that will run you $40 and will be solid for years. Lots of people get Cutco knives or other household brands like Cuisinart or oxo and they probably work fine, but you won't enjoy them as much as a knife that you try out and select after handling it. I use a knife to prep food almost every day of my life, so it matters way more to me than most of my friends. If you don't like cooking or really hate chopping onions and the like, you may want to just go get a set of knives from Costco and call it a day.
  11. That's just his way of showing love to all his upside down cows back at home.
  12. Same. It's really entertaining. My wife watches most of the housewives, southern charm whatever fake reality bravo shows and they are all pretty goddamn awful, but the people on Vanderpump are so next level retarded and self unaware that they must have been grown in a lab by TV execs. The shit that they say is nonstop idiot gold. It's still a horrible show, but I find myself laughing at it anytime I'm in the room when it's on.
  13. Well, at least the NCAA now has their own version of Tinder or Bumble or whatever hookup app is in use these days.
  14. I always hated personality tests because this particular one was so worthless. A couple of years ago I had a few sessions with a counselor who pointed me to the Enneagram test which I skeptically filled out. It was surprisingly very insightful and accurate, and I have since recommended it to a few family members who have agreed that it is pretty accurate and sometimes eerily on-point.
  15. This is one of the better things I have read on here in a while.
  16. How do we know this is the real BrazilHorn and not some imposter trying to get our personal information by posing as a fraud victim?
  17. I am available to do a nightly periscope from Baskin Robbins.
  18. Probably more of a steelshank entry, but the velveeta/wolfchili combo led me to post it here.
