  1. Jack Stack has really good side dishes, imo.
  2. I've had some good KC bbq. Q39 has good chicken and sides, ok brisket (relatively speaking). Squeal Like a Pig (SLAP) is better, imo. Really good stuff. But I've had some KC bbq that I swear was Oscar Mayer bologne with ketchup.
  3. Not much, to be honest. I've had mine for a couple of years and am looking for something new.
  4. I currently have an iPhone SE2020 (yeah, I'm cheap) but looking to upgrade, possibly even going Android (google pixle or whatever it's called). I just don't want to spend over a grand on an iPhone. Fuck Apple. Well, not quite fuck them, but if the underdog has a good alternative I'll go for that.
  5. Does anybody have any recommendations? I love the French influence on the food. I'm looking for some real/serious type of stuff. And I guess since I'm at it, any good Japanese/Okinawan cookbooks?
  6. No. Shit. Omar is the Man.
  7. Ok, I had to google "bsg" and (I think) it's Battlestar Galactica. (sorry if I got that wrong). I agree! BSG is effing amazing! (the "reboot", right?) with Katee Sackoff and Tricia Helfer?
  8. Agree. Welch was basically a corporate psychopath. Don't forget the UC economic "gurus" who also preached unfettered free-market shenanigans. What's distressing now (to me, at least) is the degree to which these policies are defended, even by those people who are most harmed by those policies.
  9. Yeah, I think it's the best tv show ever. Like modern-day Shakespeare.
  10. It better not be "recognized" by the world as genocide. If it is then genocide has no meaning.
  11. And that's not even close to the dumbest thing coming out of Southern Baptists' mouths.
  12. Well done. I'm guessing that you're a fan of Miyazaki's films?
  13. He sounds like a mentally ill person whose family is now as misguided as he was. Sad.
  14. Dang, awesome thread. I'm just 4 years late. For rice cooker I can't recommend the Zojirushi enough. I've bought 3. For tom yum soup I cheat and get a paste in a bottle from my local asian grocery store. Same with tom kha soup. Thanks for the note on differences between vietnamese and thai fish sauce.
  15. You heard me, Coltraine.
  16. So when we have a chance to add something that's weird and cool, we just say "nah, b/c all the weird and cool stuff was gone 15 years ago"? I don't know if the word for that is shortsighted, or self-fulfilling, but what a strange way to basically guarantee that nothing new/weird/cool is ever added to the city or university. Just my opinion.
  17. Wtf does that mean?
  18. I like Ellsworth Kelly's Austin. What I'm kinda worried about is moisture seeping into the widows where it joins the wall. If any black mold type stuff starts growing I hope they take care of it asap, and I can't imagine it won't grow. But, imo, it's weird stuff like this that makes a great university, and city. Good for UT and good for Austin for having this. Fuck the haters.
  19. Aren't there windows in the common areas? And don't the individual rooms have pretty good lighting? I don't think that's a nightmare at all. Imo, this is an interesting approach. People are going apeshit over it, though.
  20. Maybe neon, but I'm not going to wade through all the prior posts. So neg me all you want.
  21. I'm not much of a Rogan fan, but don't hate him, either. Imo, give this shit a rest (trying to cancel Rogan). This is not the battle worth fighting. Neil Young and the other 60's era musicians can take their music and their tens of dollars in royalties and do whatever they want. Rogan can have whatever idiots on his show that he wants. Again, "progressives" need to stop getting so butt-hurt over this.
  22. How about 10 years, then? Don't like that? Then don't get drunk and push away the hand of a flight attendant.
