They seem pretty impressive for obese people but I do think there are some issues with people with body dysmorphia getting their hands on them and Karen Carpentering themselves. I've heard of people having serious health problems because they just stop eating.

My grandfather was riding a horse through some pine trees and put his hand up to push a branch out of the way and got a small cut on it. A couple of weeks later he had a stroke caused by a staff infection that he got from that cut. Bacteria can really fuck you up.

120 is about right for taking steaks off if you want them medium rare.

Be careful what you wish for. I remember people saying that Al Davis had to die for the Raiders to be good again for YEARS and now they are 98–143 in the 15 years since he died and have been to exactly two playoff games, both of which they lost.

You can actually light charcoal with a heat gun. High powered hair dryer like this... Just hold it next to the charcoal for a bit and it will light it. Not something I would buy for that purpose or even use if I had a chimney, but I've done it a few times and it does work.

Hopefully he left behind a storage unit full of gold bars and renaissance paintings that no one knows about.

I know nothing about this guy, but if I was in the conspiracy theory community and decided to kill myself I would definitely do what I could to make it look like the CIA took me out just for the sake of my legacy in the community.

I hit taco Tuesday at Taco John's yesterday and got 5 crispy tacos and a large drink for ~$10. It sort of felt like the old days actually getting a bunch of crappy food for a reasonably low price. The idea that that would be something like $18 if it wasn't Tuesday is just wild to me. The only...

I totally disagree with that. A steak cooked on a gas grill definitely tastes different than one cooked in a cast iron pan. It's not the same as charcoal or smoking, but it definitely adds flavor because of the juices dripping on the hot metal plates over the burners and getting vaporized. If...

I was a charcoal purist for like 20 years and then I got lazy and got a gas grill. Still get the urge for a charcoal burger or steak once in a while. I have a Big Green Egg but it's not set up currently because my back deck is too crowded with the gas grill and the pellet grill.

Same here. The smokey joe is great. You don't have to spray petroleum on your food and it will get all the charcoal burning hot and even in a short period of time. A newspaper or a paper towel with a little bit of oil on it works just fine. If you want to be a little faster you could just...
