    It's half French. Crunchy Croquant? That sounds like shit. If I didn't already know that Cheetos were fucking delicious, I would probably just pass on by thinking it was French coward food.

    I'll add to this that Type 1 diabetics should certainly stay away from it, but there is lots of research being done that shows keto diets can help Type 2 diabetics control their condition and reduce or eliminate their dependence on insulin. It is a complete lifestyle change, though. **DO NOT...

    That's true. I think my main hang-up on this is that I don't want to be the better researched, more knowledgeable party in the room when I'm talking to a doctor about my health. Especially when it is an issue that GPs should be crushing. The fact that these recommendations and levels they've...

    So I went to get my yearly physical today with a new doctor since I'm moving two towns over next month and wanted a new doc close by. When it comes to the diet portion she mentions that her digital records show that previously I had borderline high cholesterol and asks about my diet. I explain...

    Do it, that sounds awesome. Also, Queso ridged chips from Walmart were good, but my bag had way too much seasoning. I didn't know that was even a thing.

    For BJJ I get the head and spine, but shoulders? That seems excessive. All BJJ players should have mandatory judo fall training. He would have learned to keep his chin on his chest and probably avoided just such an impact from that type of throw.

    I've watched that throw several times and have no idea how he got disqualified for that. He slammed him on his shoulder blades. It wasn't even close to his head. That is, unless this is a judo tourney and they still have leg attacks outlawed. He did grab his upper thigh area to turn him...

    I do it both before and after, because butter is amazing. To be fair, I only do it before since it was recommended in the directions I found originally and has always worked well.

    I guess I didn't explain very well. The corner is just not pressed all the way down. It is still sealed, but in the event that it needs to release steam then it can do so in a non-catastrophic way. It is a safety precaution.

    What quantity of food are we talking? I have been using a covered 8x11 pyrex dish to steam broccoli, green beans, etc. in my microwave for years now. Just throw the vegetables in the dish with 2 tablespoons of water and some butter, cover but leave one corner cracked, and microwave for a few...

    This is how I've obtained books for over a decade. Just be aware that, just like torrenting movies and tv shows, if nerds don't like the books you want then they will be difficult to find. Source: trying to download books for my wife that nerds don't like.

    To add on to this, if you decide to go this route, I would read about Mikhaila Peterson (Jordan Peterson's daughter). She went on a very serious elimination diet that really helped a lot of her issues. Speak with your own doctors about it, of course, but at this point I think she mostly just...

    I'll be in the market for a new AV receiver in the next 90 days to run a 5.1 surround set up and a second zone for music. Is that Yamaha V583 still the best bet for that type of setup?

    It (2017)

    Yeah, I agree but the book made it pretty clear that they were more than just compelled to come back. They even forgot most of the terrible shit that happened to them and only truly remembered what happened once they were too far to turn back.

    I do it to avoid Walmart's retarded workforce like the plague. Also, my first job was in a grocery store when I was a teenager and over 20 years later I can still scan, sack, and run my card faster than any other person in the store.

    Avengers: Endgame (2019)

    Just saw it. It was good, but not great. Certainly not on Infinity War's level. If not for the emotional connection to the characters for over a decade the movie would have been a 4/10 at best. Nothing was worse than the ridiculous, pandering girl power moment though. Literally 5 minutes of...

    Also, remember that burn in is much more likely during the first 500 to 1000 hours of the TVs life while the OLEDs "cure". Not that it can't happen later, but it does get less likely.

    I was watching Sjow and he still uses the word from his Hearthstone days. In any case, I can't think of a better word to describe the feeling you get watching control decks with barely any real threats matched up against each other. Fatiguing.

    I don't want the game to suck and I don't want control to be worthless, but when every Thought Erasure deck can reliably get it off on curve, then always curve into cry or kya's wrath then there is a goddamn problem. For UW to reach into the powerful removal from Black is supposed to cost...

    As soon as the check lands rotate, you should see a bit of relief from the insanity. Cards like Absorb and Thought Erasure will be much harder to play on curve with just shock lands coming into play untapped. Even then, at least they'll have to take a bit of damage to do it. I love the...

    You ever tried fresh chicharrones? Man, the best pieces have skin and a bit of fat still on them. They are ultra crispy on one side and the fat melts in your mouth on the other. I know it doesn't sound appealing thinking about bagged pork rinds, but the fresh ones are so much different.

    The show is straight trash. All Shonda Rhymes shows start really good with great character development then devolve into absolute unwatchable bullshit. Sadly, as her new shows come out they reach the trash stage at an increasingly alarming rate.
