December 11, 20196 yr I've never actually done it but I confess I've considered snacking on just croutons and dressing. This is the only way I consume them. Don't like them on my salad. They are pretty much like chips to me
December 11, 20196 yr I really enjoy listening to Christmas music and sharing my thoughts on which version of each song is my favorite.

If they come in a packet on the side, I either throw them away immediately, or even eat them individually, separate from the salad. But once I put the dressing or the vinaigrette on my salad, the last thing i want is a soggy crouton with one of my bites. Not only do I like croutons on a salad, I also crush up one or two packs of crackers and put those on a salad as well.

December 12, 20196 yr Christmas Vacation is overrated and has not aged well. It’s not on the same level as the original Vacation, which is an absolute classic. I sort of agree with this, but still love Christmas Vacation.
December 12, 20196 yr If I want more crunch or don't have croutons, I'll add sunflower seeds to my salad.

December 12, 20196 yr I don't find the Army-Navy game "deeply moving" or whatever hyperbolic cliches are often used to describe it. I think it's a neat tradition and an interesting rivalry. I'll watch it if I"m near a TV. But it doesn't "move" me that they are service academies. They are just two historic NCAA rivals, and I find all historic rivalrly games interesting.

They are just two historic NCAA rivals, and I find all historic rivalrly games interesting. I didn't either until I went to one. TV misses a metric crap-ton of what makes the game great, such as the prisoner exchange, the spirit videos, and the interaction between the two student bodies on their end of the field. What the future holds for the students is absolutely a differentiating factor, however. It's not just the same ole, same ole; when it comes to rivalries. I don't see your opinion as 'unpopular.' It's not like you're slamming it as boring/ meaningless like the poster in the Army-Navy thread. Edited December 12, 20196 yr by Iceman

Being a Naval Academy grad and having attended several of these games, I can definitely see where you’re coming from. It’s special to me, because it’s my alma mater. It’s “moving” to me, because it’s my commissioning source. It’s the fiery birthplace to over a third of all Naval and Marine Corps officers. It’s more than just a game, because the players all go pro in the warrior profession. But I don’t think every outsider needs to force these ideals upon themselves. And I can certainly agree that it’s not the highest quality of football, from an entertainment perspective. If you ever do get the chance to witness it in person, you’ll see that it is a very special experience for the Mids/Cadets and all alumni.

I get the meaning of the game for many. But I have no ties to the military at all. And the quality of play just is not that appealing. The pageantry is what makes the game as big as it is.

January 10, 20205 yr Love the guy, but I just have a feeling Leach will flop at Miss State. Won’t make it 4 full seasons.

Sure he won 8-9 games a year on average at tech with the cast off in state talent that UT/OU and A&M didn’t want. It’s not that difficult to win 8-9 games in the Big 12 as a Texas school if you have half a brain and don’t lose to Kansas He’s never won anything of utter importance and constantly gets his dick kicked by whoever his main rival is or pees down his leg in big games (2008 Texas notwithstanding). But he says funny things in press conferences!!1!1 So hire Dave Chapelle to do your press conferences and a different coach who wins conference titles and beats his rival.
January 10, 20205 yr This may not be unpopular (and it sure as shit won't be if more people would try it), but the card game Uno is much more fun when played with open hands. We started playing this way just to help Doomlet learn the game, and our family much prefers it. There's a lot more strategy involved, a lot more alliances and backstabbing (though table talk is discouraged), and the games last a lot longer with more reversals of fortune and "last ditch desperation card drawn to thwart someone from going out" fireworks. Try it sometime.

Try it sometime. We used to play "Fast Uno," where you don't have to wait your turn to play a card. If someone plays a red 3, you can play a blue 3 even if it's not your turn, provided you can lay the card before the player whose turn it is can act. Anyone can play a playable card at any time if they can play it first, even playing multiple cards in a row.
January 10, 20205 yr Jerry Seinfeld should kiss Larry David's feet for help giving his career because Seinfeld's comedy is meh, he's not a great comedic actor and was the third best character on his own show (after Kramer and George).

I watched Jerry Seinfeld evolve over the years appearing on Carson. I saw him mature into a polished act. AntennaTV airs full episode reruns of Carson every night at 11e/10c. You could watch for yourself. They were a brilliantly successful partnership and were of like minds. To suggest that poor little Jerry would've been nothing without Larry is moronic and I'm sure Larry David would agree. And yeah, everyone knows he can't act. They even made jokes about it on the show.

Every year the same person comes through our office selling their homemade tamales. “Best tamales you’ll ever try”. They’re always really popular in the office. I’ve tried them. They’re fine. And I love Mexican food. Arguably my favorite type of food. But I don’t get why tamales are so universally loved.

January 12, 20205 yr Also, a newsstand vendor. The aforementioned attorney. A b-movie actor. And of course, the owner of a marquee MLB franchise. I realize for most of you "The Big Bang Theory" is the height of not only comedy, but your entire existence. But you will bow down before the man in the cap damn you!
