  1. That's pretty much exactly my point. How on earth can any conclusion be drawn from that? The kid was making a very late season transition from ECAC hockey to the NHL and was also coming off an injury. We may as well judge this forum as a whole after reading a single post from 4mer.
  2. This deli near the office at my previous job had the best spicy mustard I've ever had. They made a damn good sandwich too. One day, I got back to my office and sat down to eat the sandwich. They had screwed up my order and used mayo instead of mustard. I had to throw the thing out immediately. I can't stand mayo, but then to find it in place of that awesome mustard? It still makes me cringe.
  3. I don't expect much of Kasdorf, but this statement is ridiculous. He's been a pro for 30 seconds. Give him his full season in the A before you say anything about his career.
  4. So what happens if Kane tops the 30 goal mark this year?
  5. You beat me to it. It's a well known fact that fire cannot travel underneath a dumpster.
  6. I'm still looking for a good explanation for why they killed off Daniel. Maybe they've got something interesting planned based on that with his daughter, but it seems like they may have written her off now too.
  7. I know absolutely nothing of the character other than his introduction in Jessica Jones. That said, I'll be glued to the couch watching the entire thing. Their Netflix shows have been pure gold.
  8. I turned this on late and only caught the very last question for Hillary and then all of Trump. Was the lighting really bad throughout the whole thing? I noticed pretty quickly that Trump's face was so red that I thought he was furious. But then I started to notice the same thing with a few in the crowd asking questions so I assumed it was the lights.
  9. When you are listening, they should talk football. When you are not listening, they are free to talk about whatever they want. Is that the basic point here?
  10. The one thing the Panera I've been to with a kiosk had going for it is that there must have been about 15 of those screens. Even with a line, that will allow for a bit of browsing. If that's what places are doing, it should pretty much cancel out my original post. Now if only places with those mix your own Coke flavor machines could actually get more than one of them in the building. That's when the real innovation will happen.
  11. I love the contrast in fighting styles between the Punisher and Daredevil. Both are brutal, aiming to take someone out as quickly as possible. Very similar really, except one's method is to kill immediately, the other won't. That prison one was an eye opener and really goes to show how different Marvel's tv is from their movies.
  12. I don't know if everyone is like this, but the first couple times I've found myself using those kiosks, I find myself exploring the menus to see exactly how much customization I can make or checking out what exactly is in certain sandwiches. I haven't been in there (Panera) at peak business hours, but I can imagine that slowing things down. It'll pass with time though.
  13. The last sentence from that Aikman quote is a thing of beauty. I think you could publish that single line as an entire article in a paper and it would win awards.
  14. I enjoyed suicide squad. They pretty much focused on Lawton, Harley, and Flag, and to me, that worked. One thing just didn't seem right with Harley though. Maybe I can't get the cartoon/video game versions out of my head, but she seemed to have an accent at some points and then not have it later.
  15. Nice move by the guy. It's just a shame that we've gotten to a place where this story even has to be written. This type of action should be the norm and not a newsworthy outlier.
  16. I think you should work on making the mods the borg. You've got enough tech knowledge to make that happen, right?
  17. Does Time have a special Onion division? The strategic syrup reserve?
  18. My brother gave me a box set of Mel Brooks movies for Christmas and I just haven't found the time to actually sit down and watch them. I know which two I'll go out of my way for by the end of the week.
  19. Yeah, I'd say just about the same thing too. Each week, it feels like I'm waiting for something to happen, but then it never does. Splitting everyone up was also a huge mistake. We're not invested in these characters yet and now there's not going not going to be enough time to develop them with three separate storylines running at the same time. This idea worked well for the one season post-prison in the original series because we knew most of the characters very well at that point and you could actually see their growth. I don't know if people responded to it the same way, but I absolutely loved that stretch where they were all separate and slowly being funneled towards Terminus.
  20. You kids go check out the hotel to make sure it's clear. Us adults will sit around and get wasted.
  21. In my house it's called shrader day. We'll be having a neighborhood get together on sunday at my house. More than likely, that means I'll be suffering through a headache most of shrader day, then the wife and I will head out somewhere for a birthday dinner.
  22. Guy creates a cult based on a lie. We've seen this story play out a million times in the real world. And I don't mean that to sound like I'm calling the show unoriginal. It may be the most realistic thing they've done so far.
  23. The load ratio thing was my fault. That was the number that initially stuck in my head so I was mentioning it here. But anyway... Checkmate. It's amazing how quickly things move once you get the phone number for the owner's secretary. This is one of those automotive groups that owns a bunch of dealerships. One phone call to corporate and they quickly handed me over to her. So we're all set now. The only money leaving my wallet is when I have my mechanic check it out to make sure they didn't screw anything up. Edit: and no, I'm not AWD
  24. My system came with the most recent COD and I've never even touched it.
  25. I think it's fair to question the move but I'm also not going to bury the guy for it
