What's more fun, if you're the driver, is to crack the passengers window, apply the parental lock, and then fart, slowly pulling the noxious gas your passengers way, And there's nothing he/she can do about it.

I almost never see radar cops since COVID. On the one hand, radar cops make people drive safer, which is a good thing. On the other hand, I don't like getting speeding tickets.

well, when you say it like that you seem like much less of a dickhead.

we still have people judging other people who have cancer?

And you do? I also wish him well, just not sure football is in his best interest. I don't either. But I'm not the one playing internet dad/internet doctor in this thread. You are.

you don't know shit about fuck regarding his situation or medical diagnosis. he'll do what he wants to do and I'll wish him well.

I can't believe it's been a quarter century since Freaks and Geeks first aired. Wow.

You mean the two DLs from Michigan?

Mick was the greatest frontman of all time. While "greatest" is subjective, this is also objectively true.

Reading all that would be tantamount to kicking myself in the dick. No thanks.

Not a Walsh recipe. I looked at about four different recipes and came up with what I thought would be good, but also would be easy. As far as store bought corn tortillas go, in Austin I like the El Milagro yellow corn tortillas that come in the cool paper sack. They don't have any preservatives (according to the package) and when you open the bag there's a noticeable rich masa smell. Of course, the downside is that they only come in packages of 30 and since they don't have preservatives they don't keep very long. And our family usually isn't eating 30 corn tortillas in less than a week. But I think they're much better than the HEB branded corn tortillas. If anyone has a recommendation on store-bought corn tortillas that you feel are better, I'm all ears.

1.5 cups long grain white rice. Toast rice in like 1/4 cup of vegetable oil until deep golden brown. Watch it and let it toast longer than you think you should, but make sure it doesn’t burnt. Add 1/4 of a finely diced yellow or white onion and sautee for a few mins on lower heat. Then add about 1.5 tablespoons of minced garlic and sautee like 30 seconds till fragrant. While you’re doing all that shit, in a separate saucepan bring 2 cups of chicken broth to almost a boil. Add that to the rice and onions and garlic right after you add the garlic. Also add 8oz of tomato sauce, a teaspoon or so of salt, about half a teaspoon of cumin, a few sprigs of cilantro, and a whole halved jalapeño. Cook on low for like 20 mins till done. Remove from heat but do not take off lid. Let sit for like 15 mins before fluffing. Remove japs and cilantro. That’s how I did it. Difference tonight was that I toasted the rice a little longer, heated the liquid/broth before adding to the rice, and I let it sit a lot longer than normal after removing from heat.

Made these tonight. Used Robb Walsh’s recipe. They came out great. And this was probably the best mexican rice I’ve ever made. Didn’t have an expo to wipe my plate down, as I gave the help the night off.

Yep

Jukeboxes run on "large hole" 7" records

wtf happened to Mitchell? Seemed like everyone was convinced he was destined for greatness and was DRASTICALLY underrated by all the recruiting services. We thought he was going to be what Sweat turned out to be. And now he's overweight, out of shape, and can't crack the depth chart. Wild shit....

I don't remember what happened because I never really knew what was going on. All the characters looked the same with names so similar it was impossible to tell anyone apart. Edit: I mean seriously - Daemon, Aemond, Vaemond, Rhaenys, Rhaenyra, Jacaerys, Larys, Laenor, Viserys, Corlis, Criston. This shit is fucking stupid.

No I think that's sarcasm, as they began filming season 2 earlier this year. But it probably won't be back until next year, which would be three years between seasons. Which is stupid, so it better be pretty fucking good.

I've seen almost everything WA has made. Here is my personal ranking. Rushmore Royal Tenenbaums Fantastic Mr. Fox Life Aquatic Darjeeling Limited Grand Budapest Moonrise Kingdom Asteroid City Bottle Rocket Isle of Dogs French Dispatch (This is the only WA film I just didn't like at all. Tried watching it three times and fell asleep every time) For me, It's really about tiers. Rushmore, Royal Tenenbaums and Fantastic Mr. Fox are a cut above the rest to me. Those are three remarkable films. But I think my age (45) and when those films came out might cause me to over-rank them. Saw Bottle Rocket in the theater the summer after I graduated high school. I was a sophomore at UT in 98 when Rushmore came out and I remember seeing it at the Dobie. Probably watched it 100 times over the next 5 years when it came out on VHS. So those two films came out during my peak years of media/culture consumption. Then WA managed to somehow meet (and for some, exceed) expectations with Tenenbaums. Gene Hackman's character is an all-time favorite, and it's the best thing Ben Stiller has ever done. And Mr. Fox just blew my mind when it came out. I love it. LA, DL, GBH, MR, and AC are pretty interchangeable depending on my mood. I love them all fairly equally, but just a tad bit less than the top 3. I realize I over-rank Darjeeling Limited. I don't know why I really love that film because it's got some problematic subject matter with "three spoiled white brothers bicker in India and generally act like jackasses". But still, I love the film. And I also realize I under-rank Grand Budapest Hotel. I think I need to re-watch that one. Love Bottle Rocket but it being his first film, he hadn't fully-developed his style. But it was really quirky and funny and weird when it came out, and still has some of his best lines. It's in it's own category. Then we've got Isle of Dogs and French Dispatch. I wanted to like Isle of Dogs. I really did. But I thought it was boring. And I just do not like French Dispatch at all. I tried watching it three times and fell asleep each time. It's the only stinker in the bunch. I looked at a couple of other rankings on some websites and the funny thing is everyone's ALL OVER THE PLACE. There seems to be no consensus regarding where each film should rank, except that French Dispatch was always in the bottom three of every single ranking.

I'll see it. But I'm not confident it will be nearly as good as the last Mad Max.

This is an incredibly banal conversation with some excellent shit talking peppered in. Just what I've come to expect from this board.

While I agree with you, it doesn't matter. The producers have been very publicly saying they want someone in their early 30s. In the minds of the people making the decision, he's too old.

Producers want someone in their early 30s who can carry the franchise for at least a decade or longer as Craig did. So Cavill, Elba, and Hardy are all too old.

I’ve got a yellow sauce fermenting right now. This is 13 habaneros, a large orange sweet Mediterranean pepper I got at central market, a very large mango, one large carrot, and a 2 inch piece of ginger. Will add confit garlic cloves when blending, along with some of the oil, some brine, and some plain vinegar. You basically just dissolve three tablespoons of pickling/sea salt into a quart of water. Submerge veggies in salt water in bell jar. Weigh the veggies down so they’re fully submerged, cover with a fermentation lid and let it sit out of direct sunlight for a week or two. Just put a bunch of peppers in the garden. Have japs, Serranos, Fresno, cayenne, and habaneros. Hope to be making a lot of hot sauce this summer. Also, I've tried fermenting dill pickles and I did not care for them at all. I prefer a vinegar pickle or even a quick-salted pickle on cukes instead of a half-sour or full-sour pickle that's been fermented.

Which shows continuity in their ability to develop WRs across head coaches and position coaches. If you don't think their history in putting first-round NFL All-Pro and Pro-Bowl players in the league for the last decade doesn't resonate with WR recruits, then I don't know what to tell you. We haven't had a WR drafted in the first round since Roy Williams 20 years ago, and if we break that streak this year, LSU will likely have two WRs off the board before our first WR is selected. Both of whom played under the current regime.
