  1. On my most recent Sopranos rewatch, I appreciated the pilot more than I ever have. That's to say that it didn't hit me hard out of the gate, but as it sits with the series, it's pretty exceptional. Mad Men probably edges it out pretty well though.
  2. Uh, oh, that's going to reduce his score on the person-woman-man-camera cognitive test.
  3. Seems like they are short on supply of video of her talking policy, which they can cut up, re-edit, and turn into some sort of bullshit narrative that suits them.
  4. She's doing fine. She doesn't need to let Donald and company dictate how she runs for President.
  5. Exactly. He retired after 24 years. Welp, I guess I have no choice but to vote for the geriatric sociopath and his sofaphiliac running mate. This is such quaint, 2004 politics.
  6. Remember folks, and young women in particular, there are two different types of men running in this race, albeit for different spots on the ticket. There's a third type, but that's more of a furniture situation.
  7. It's comparable to gas in that the changes to temperature settings are immediate. You turn the flame down, it's down (as opposed to an electric element). You turn it up, it's up. There is no lag in the heat source because there is no medium. It's the same with induction. There is no coil to heat up or, if you turn it down, that is releasing heat into the pan. The pan is heated directly by the magnetic HOB or the gas flame directly. Otherwise, they're not 1:1 comparable. Induction is far more efficient than gas in heating up a pan. Gas can be better at heating up the side of the pan. Both can have issues with hot spots and cold spots depending on the type of gas burner or the size of the induction HOB relative to the size of the pan.
  8. They're perfect to read in that order though. 11/22/63 is my favorite; IT is a close second.
  9. The lizard-dildo of consequences rarely comes lubed, and it wouldn't matter if it did.
  10. The correct response to his comparing himself to anyone from Entourage is:
  11. He'll be playing the part of Turtle on the casting couch.
  12. It's okay when South Austin does it. When you're a celebrity, they let you do that.
  13. The allegation that she bought a very expensive necklace on the heels of the news that Trump allegedly took a $10M bribe from the president of Egypt toward the end of his 2016 campaign is a new level of impotent rage. Really, just impotence.
  14. But not literally. You don't want to look into his eyes. He's got black eyes. Like a doll's eyes. And when he eats ya, those eyes roll up into his head. And that's when the screamin' starts . . . I'll never put on a life jacket again.
  15. I don't know what that is or why it likes me and not the person who knows way more about this stuff, but oh well. I assume it's the fault of the justice system somehow.
  16. @immamac Dragging this up from the dead. Who can and can't see this? What browser are you using? What are the last nine digits of your SSN. I searched for this .gif in the onboard .gif search and it did not come up. But a cat with a party had did. Onboard gif search is, how do I say, not the best. I can see this .gif on my end in Chrome and Mozilla. I also can see some of the .gifs posted above (the more recent ones). How widespread is this issue for users on this board? Do we know why it works for some and not others? I figured it had been resolved until I was scolded. So now I'm curious.
  17. They work on Chrome and Mozilla for me. Maybe it's a Mac thing?
  18. Shouldn't this question be asked in the vice-presidential thread? I can see them fine, which is why I posted them? It seems like other people can as well. But this is the first I've heard of yarns not working in a while, and I figured it was resolved since I could see them. And why they don't work (for some) is above my skill set/pay grade. I guess I should spend more time on the board discussion forum or read the newsletter. Mea culpa The fact that Pimphand can spend the better part of the day shit posting nonsense and I get called out for a linking Yarn is a head scratcher. Edit to add that I resurrected the yarn thread in Board Discussion. It hadn't been responded to since 2023 and mine was the last response. I can see lots of yarns there. I posted a Yarn and a question if anyone wants to participate in a productive survey. Sorry for the threadjack. The onboard gif search is not exactly the best.
