    And I'll take the opposing stance every single time. Use other people's money every time it benefits you to do so.

    I certainly don't make that much, but finance vs buy outright is easy math decision. If your money can get a higher return than the interest amount somewhere else, then take the financing and invest the money somewhere else. I have a few very wealthy family friends who do that, when they could very easily buy anything they want outright if they wanted to.

    Yeah but you always do that regardless of flavor.

    No. Fuck this. I tip when I pick up, unless I know it'll be on a different shift and the dropoff guy won't be there. Only exception is when I'm asking them to park me in a prime spot out front so I can look like a baller and impress the chicks. (This has never actually occurred.)

    That's the beauty of it. It does everything, well. Can shave with my lawnmower blade when done. But I don't. That would be too kinky.

    Is that Jack Straw's dog?

    Preempting the question, the single reason I rec the Ken Onion is the blade guide allows Asian and conventional angles. If you have no Asian angle knives, you can save a few bucks and get the conventional WorkSharp. But even then I'd rec the Ken Onion for future flexibility, and I believe the guide also allows you to do other items like axes or lawnmower blades easier?

    Have you tried without the butter? Guga found it actually dilutes the meat flavor, and my limited testing seems to agree. Baste with butter on the sear, but sous vide without added fats.

    Why are you slicing the tip off your nutsack?

    I actually soak overnight twice with a water change in the middle, or they wind up too salty for my taste.

    Those rims disqualify it from perfection.

    There are a few other threads on this, but Ken Onion WorkSharp is my rec. Watch some YT and practice on a piece of shit knife a few times first, then nothing is as easy while still not being aggressive on the knife.

    Flying during Covid was the most pleasant travel I'll ever have. 20 people on the entire flight most of the time. Tickets were half price or less. And airports had zero lines or waits for check in, customs, immigration. Customs wouldn't search your shit because they didn't want to be near you for any longer than necessary.

    Sorry, I just read up and Texas has no law preventing rate raise if not at fault. I've been only used to states that do have that legal protection (many do). I did give bad advice for Texas. Don't claim your own insurance unless other party's insurance is absolutely not working with you.
  15. Sam Lin
    This still applies. Always claim your own insurance and let them figure it out. They have way more lawyers and way more clout than you.

    And why should they NOT be conflated? It's just another product with a listed price. His point on societal norms is exactly correct, and we all have different concepts and different regional factors that affect those norms. It's why tipping is such a divisive topic.

    I stand pretty far away or outside your door, but I absolutely will not interrupt you.

    People who "stack the newscast." The fuck does that even mean??

    The recipe is obviously coming from some credible sources, but I really question cooking white meat turkey to 160. That's dry and overcooked for white meat. Now if that's for full bird, then I agree; dark meat needs 160. If you're doing only a breast, go to 140.

    Pic is outside the house, unless driveway and Astroturf in bright sun is modern architecture. Aluminum pan is just fine, enjoy the fish.
  22. Sam Lin
    No

    Wait, you worked at the strip club?

    I actually got something similar a week or so ago. Had wayyy too many categories to micromanage the types of spam I could volunteer for, everything was disabled, and I still got spam from them. Ok, report spam and block sender then, I gave you a chance!

    Ugh. (I hate cold.)
