I agree with you but I have tried some pretty tasty burger recipes too (beyond basic stuff). Also agree on the well done thing... Fucking hate overcooked burgers even more than overcooked steak!
She's doing well. It has been a wild ride. I had never changed a diaper in my life until a few days ago. Lots of sleeping at odd hours. She sleeps during the day and goes crazy at night! Not a big deal right now waking up at 2 am then 4 am then 6 am because I'm off this week but it'll suck when I actually have to go into work
But overall it has been great. Just getting used to the life change!

Yeaaa, I never have either. Things are going to get crazy.
Oh, so it's not about someone getting locked in their own shed for a day or two. :/
It's someone who gets locked in a shed for a day or two hundred.

Mine hit 2 months today. I wanna say about sometime last week he started going to bed At 11 or 12, and waking up around 530-6a. He had his days and nights flipped something good for a while, and wasn't sleeping longer than maybe 1.5hrs at a time.
I can deal with 4 or 5 hrs of sleep, and then go to work. But that every other hr stuff rekt me
I never played a ton of TF2.

LJ, I saw this posted on Twitter today, thought it was a pretty interesting read:
http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/feature/25577288/in-the-line-of-fire
bunch of offensive linemen on the state of offensive line play in the NFL these days and why they spend the off season at a camp run by a former offensive linemen. Includes former Oregon Duck Chris Long shitting on the coaching he received in college and a lot of praise for Alabama.
(And then I think about how Seattle drafted a guy from Bama recently and he was total crap)

Pretty sure the only thing olinemen at Bama learn is how to hold and get away with it.
Why on earth did they draft Carpenter in the 1st? Probably the worst LT Saban's had at Alabama.

Tom Cable has a fetish for big mauler types.
Felt fine when I played it last night, I prefer the PC version obviously, but it felt really smooth and controlled well on console.
Button placement with jump/abilities took some getting use to for certain heroes though.

played a bit of overwatch and it's pretty fun. i'll probably buy it since i still have some best buy credit and my GCU runs out at the end of may. now that amazon does 20% release discount with prime i don't think i'll re-sub to GCU
Those BB reward points tho

i thought about that, but it'd mean me buying enough games to get $30 to break even. that equates to about 15-18 games over the next 2 years and i don't think i'll buy that many games... i dont know, maybe i will depending on NX!
runs perfectly fine. it controls a bit stiffly on the consoles for how im guessing they want you to play but its not a big deal.
The people defending the sniffer make me sick. Let a coworker snif my damn food. Catch a haymaker with the swiftness
Yep I don't know if I would have been as calm as the OP.
I called those people out on like page 6. Tf is wrong with some people on gaf
One dude was like whats the worst that happens...you get sick and miss a few days of work..
da fuk

In his defense, throwing haymakers is only acceptable at work if your job is slinging dope.

You told me to get a 970 and wait for this trash. Should've just got a 980ti til the real ones come out.
And yet Cyrus may be the bigger bust. Cyrus attended the Bentley camp last season, he improved but he's still a 3rd stringer and the Bills RT situation stinks.
Good read Purple, glad I saw the post. Your front office touched on most of this stuff in pre draft conference. Glad these guys are trying to improve their craft. Last year the Bills struggled on D because the players failed to communicate, it was too complex, people see Rex as a fool but fail to realize all the calls you need to make presnap. It's harder than ever to coach in this league, not to mention the short rope, hard to build a program, everything in flux.

I think this was a pretty important draft for the Seahawks and while I like some of what they did I'm a bit curious about drafting 3 running backs and 0 pass rushers.
Still the one thing that Seattle continues to try and express in their press conferences and stuff is that when it comes to the draft they evaluate not in the way Mel Kiper does, but in how well they think a guy will fit their system. Obviously its easier to "trust the process" when the results have been as good as they have been, but I also remember that first season when they blew up the roster like 3 times.
Another thing I read about the OL and Seahawks was how they've been cyclical in the draft capital they've invested in the OL. The first couple years a bunch of higher picks, the next couple a lot of lower round or experimental picks, and then this year back to more high end draft capital and relatively conventional picks.
One thing also, like you mentioned the game is increasingly complex and as some of the guys in that article mentioned more and more practice restrictions are being created, I kind of wonder if at some point the NFL either increases practice/reserve squad guys or creates some sort of developmental league. I look at the mad rush for all the UDFAs and tryouts after the draft and think about how much talent there is that maybe could benefit from more structured development environments.
Of course it all comes down to $$$ in the end.
They needed to get a bunch of guys at RB - Rawls might be an injury question mark and C. Mike is still unreliable. Needed camp bodies at the very least, and they also needed guys that could contribute. The pass rushers I'm not as concerned about, although they can certainly get better. I think they are expecting Frank Clark to do some good things for them this season.
I think they were honestly fine with the OL the last few seasons, and they haven't really been completely proven wrong by the market. A lot of the guys that they let go got signed elsewhere (Giacomini, Carpenter, Sweezy, etc.), so it's not like those guys were complete bums - although that might be more reflective of the sad state of OL play in the NFL in general than a reflection of their viability as quality NFL players.
I do find it pretty interesting that it seemed that a lot of the hand-wringing over the proliferation of the spread offense in the college game was over QBs, when it seems the OL has been the group that has suffered the most.
that is fucking terrifying
