  1. Dude, you're never gonna bone her.
  2. Yeah, this isn't really a Marvel show. It's a sitcom that happens to be based in the Marvel universe and the main character is a supe. It's fun and doesn't try to be anything else.
  3. So they haven't dropped it yet because of Thursday night football? I mean, it makes sense from a business perspective, but I guess I will have to wait until tomorrow to watch it. The game looked way better than we get on cable (yes, my wife insists on keeping cable for some reason, despite almost everything we watch or the kids watch being available on streaming platforms we subscribe to) though.
  4. Yeah, when it comes to outdoor gear for people who actually do backcountry stuff, Patagonia is just another brand that happens to have a big marketshare. There's other stuff way more expensive and pretensious than Patagonia when it comes to technical gear.
  5. I'm enjoying it for what it is. The first episode was rough, but the rest have been entertaining.
  6. Part of the whole scheduling deal is due to dumb seniority rules that the Unions probably pushed and aren't likely to give up.
  7. Am I the only one who hears the term "King of England" and immediately has the desire to grab a musket or longrifle and go out and kill some redcoats?
  8. They make lots of gear that isn't for cold weather...
  9. Patagonia actually goes to great lengths to try and source everything ethically and make sure their workers in foreign countries are paid a fair wage. Yvon Chouinard was one of the pioneering rock climbers in the group that first started climbing El Cap in Yosemite. If you haven't already, you should watch Valley Uprising, a documentary about them.
  10. Yeah, if that's torture then my kids are guilty of it as well.
  11. They would probably eat the egg shells anyways if they were eggs that hatched.
  12. Yeah, but you said they were voting on going to war with themselves.
  13. If you are in Austin, just grab a bunch of dog poop bags from the park.
  14. The garage door probably closed it for her when she got home. For the toddler diapers, stick them in a plastic grocery bag, tie it off, and toss them directly in the outdoor trash can. The grocery bag is basically free, keeps them from smelling up your trash can inside, and keeps flies from getting to them in the outside trash.
  15. Obviously it has more to do with the last few days being a dead queen bounce than the CPI.
  16. Overall school rankings shouldn't matter nearly as much, but it is unfortunately something that a lot of people put stock into. If you want to get a top education in any given field, you should be looking at the best schools for that particular field of study, not overall rankings.
  17. Do they have cargo pockets?
  18. I mean, I'm actually kinda impressed. At first, I was like, go ahead an gun it and sink. But then it worked. For an impressively long while. I think I'd take my chances riding on the deck of one of those over a Russian pontoon bridge.
  19. Yeah, I would expect the feds would have things a little tighter than that, but I'm not ready to discount the story as told in the OP yet.
  20. Is that blackface?
  21. I assume that the announcement will be that they've successfully raised her from the dead and now have a zombie queen?
  22. www.mountainsteals.com is Moosejaw's clearance website. There are pretty good deals available on there as well. Steep and cheap is Backcountry's clearance website. Keep an eye on them, as good deals go fast. Also, sign up for active junky. You get cash back for shopping at many outdoor retailers through their affiliate links. Usually 8 to 10 percent back, but sometimes higher. Also, if you find a deal on one of the retailer's clearance sites, search for the same product on their regular website. It's not unusual to find a better deal on the regular site, or often the regular site has a higher percentage of cash back than the clearance site that makes a difference as well.
  23. There's an all encompassing camping and backpacking thread on here somewhere with lots of good information and pictures. Much of it is geared for backpacking, but there us plenty for car camping as well. Take a look at REI's used gear side. Sometimes you can find some good deals, but it's probably not the best time of year for that.
  24. And you have a frame of reference?
