Says "one minute from start to enjoy", but all the shit that I find online says it's really important to let it steep for at least 4 minutes. What say you, fancy man?
4 minutes is too long. 45 seconds of steeping is ideal I have found. Use very strong coffee ground very finely.
I've had it for years. It's fantastic. For a long time it was my favorite coffee maker.

Next cup I'll push through after 45 secs. My pinky will be fully extended.
Oh I see. I just started grinding my own beans and I still haven't found the right ground size. I got a manual grinder btw.
Lol.
I did actually lol when I found out you had to go through a load screen to check notifications.
Also I really feel like some of the buttons should've been backit.
My grinder just crapped out and I haven't replaced it so the aeropress is useless. I use this for the most part now. Amazing coffee.
When it comes to coffee I pretty much just do whatever Will Smith tells me to do.

There is a Popeyes at Harrisburg. That is close by. Kind of a sketchy neighborhood if I remember correctly.
Otherwise that place sucks balls.
Hope they had a ping pong table or something else.

I've pre-ordered for pick-up a few times. My Best Buy is ridiculously understaffed, so I normally end up waiting in line a bit. But other than that, it's fine. I've had no problem receiving the various pre-order incentives. If they're not included inside the case, they email them to you within a few hours of picking-up your game.

Dude Harrisburg was like a City Backdrop of The Walking Dead
It's like no humans exist there, only the train workers and cabbies, didn't see anyone else Thursday when I arrived, or Today afternoon when I left, I was like "Where the FUCK is Everyone!?!"
I just Trophy Whored on my VITA playing PSASBR, killing time
There is shit too there
At least aunt works @ Panda Express, so we got a Holiday Treat $40 worth of Delicious Panda Express Chinese food for a discounted 80% lol (roughly $8 spent)
Spicy Honey Walnut Shrimp were fucking amazing @_@!
On the way back, I saw fucking Amish Horse and Buggy, so weird seeing it Live
Also we went through a different Philly route, so we passed by the Zoo and that Rocky Building (the backside of it)
Amtrak was a fucking blast though
Gotta give it to them, shit was ridiculous comfy and not pricey ($54 going, $76 coming back, NY <=> Harrisburg, 180 miles each way) 3 hours 45 minutes arriving, 3 hours 30 minutes departing
Even saw my first Trailer Park, only seen them in movies, I was like ZOMG! they do exist!

In the suburbs outside of the city. The only time you'll see activity is during the work hours or the the night life on weekends (which is pretty weak to begin with). The city itself is shit but the outskirts are decent enough. Lived here most of my life and it's generally quiet with /some/ city amenities.GraveRobberX said:

Coming from NYC, the hustle and bustle, it was a fucking Cultural Shock to me
City was Dead Silent
"Anyone even live here?"
Enjoyed the river portion of my ride, it looked pretty with arched bridges as the hovered over the water, with remnants of old schools bridges lost/destroyed and their standing pillars left there for nature to take them away bit by bit
like it was yesterday!

Django was good. Not amazing like Inglourious Basterds or Pulp Fiction but very good.

There's one in February! (You didn't specify which team)
Maybe if you're lucky we'll still honor that whole alliance thing and let you celebrate with us.
Does this count as a kiss of death?
Miguel showing up at all = kiss of death.
Yup. I've accepted this and just running with it. Until we're officially eliminated (10 days) I will continue to post with 100% confidence in David Carr, James Allen and Corey Bradford. 2002 has been great!
Pretty sure MechDX just woke up and is staring at the ceiling with a sense something is amiss in the world at the moment.

Its the Browns that make players terrible.
If Ole' man Wheedon and Trent played for the redskins they would be co-rookie of the year.

How long depends on whether they get the bye or not!
You're a bye or not!
Honestly, the Colts basically got a basically free, cheap Garcon replacement in TY Hilton. Garcon dropped too many passes to command big money.
Hilton is definitely faster than Garcon, but lacks some size. I'd rather have the cap space
Technically, that's not untrue.

I agree. Garcon brings much more to the Redskins offense then he would on the Colts (where his particular skillset has been replaced by Hilton). At the price he was asking, there are plenty of other spots in the lineup that could use shoring up. The Colts have had a somewhat favorable schedule this year due to their position last year and next year should be a bit more challenging. I hope they cause a little bit of trouble in the playoffs, get some steals in the draft and use the extra money to bring in some FA talent on that O line cause Luck gets hit a lot.
I am going to be even blunter:
- The Colts had a ridiculously easy schedule and are the worst 10 win team in the last 10 years and if they beat the Texans, I'm sure Barnwell will write about how they are the worst 11 win team of all time -- and he'd probably be right.
- I think they could be competitive against either the Bengals or the Ravens, but Luck will need to continue to not turn the ball over in the spades that he's been doing for much fo the season.
- Luck's offensive line, bless them, is awful. Maybe the worst in the league, definitely one of the five worst.
- They will have a lot of money to spend in Free Agency, but there's not a ton out there that I'm interested in yet.
- Colts also need to find a real solution at running back. Different league now and all, but Peyton went from Faulk to James in the early part of his career while he and Tom Moore built that offense they'd end up running for the next N years with great success.
- Bruce Arians needs to play more dink and dunk with this terrible offensive line, I hope he gets hired away to be a head coach somewhere and we get a coordinator more suited to Luck's actual skillset than what he's been asked to do all year.
- I'd like to see them go out and spend on Offensive Line/Defense. We need major help at corner and the entirety of the defensive front 3 needs to be upgraded. Mathis has turned some corners in the 3-4 and Hughes flashed at times. We're gonna part ways with Freeney (10 tackles, 4 sacks 1 FF this year), I'm sure. I could see him going to any number of 4-3 teams and flourishing again.
- I think the Texans will beat the Colts this week and they will probably lose in the Wildcard round to whichever AFC North team they play. This team has a long, long way to go.
- All of this complaining aside, I've really enjoyed watching them this year and they've outperformed my expectations.

If Mech is Kevin McCallister then the Texans are Fuller.
My Uncle is a Skins fan, but he's pretty cool about it.
He even said "I hope RGIII learns to slide or he's not gonna last the season". He's quite a sensible guy though.
Are you a fan of the no fun league too?
I like you guys. Yall are groovy.
Yes even you too Kave-Man you silly Browns fan.
Laissez les bon temps rouler
I dunno how true that is, but I do know that the Saints got a certain Browns undrafted receiver named Lance Moore and he has been absolutely money when called upon. I think its just the culture that surrounds the Browns organization. If they get that changed they have a shot. Luckily they have a new owner who seems to want serious changes soon.

If we had gotten Julio the year before, we probably wouldnt have been as close as we were to RG3.

Looking at Tannehill's stats I'm pretty happy with how he's developed this year. He's been a little inconsistent (started strong, cooled off, finishing strong) but he seems to be ending the season on a high note. In his last 4 games he has 5 TD's and 0 INT's and he has started to look like much more of a threat running the ball (173 yards rushing in his last 5 games versus only 30 in his first 10 games).
As Sherman likes to point out, Tannehill has spent much less time playing QB at a high level (meaning college and NFL) than Wilson, Luck, or RGIII, so he is doing a lot of learning on the job. It'll be fun to see how high his skill ceiling is once he gets some quality WR's (particularly a no. 1 who can be a deep threat), a more consistent running game (hopefully), and another year or two under his belt.
A strong finish against the Patriots would be great for his confidence so hopefully that's what we'll see this weekend.
