Baratza Encore. Get a refurbished model from their site to save some money. The burr is easily upgradeable and purchased from their website. They have great customer service plus the grinder is designed to be fixed as opposed to slightly cheaper brands that work okay for awhile and then conk out, forcing you to…

Ive noticed that more and more officials are signaling close touchdowns because all scoring plays are reviewable. The same thinking is applicable to certain circumstances outside of scores and officials should be making calls and blowing their whistles in ways that broaden the scope of replay review. Hopefully within…

When are people going to catch on that Rowling is awful?

I’ve been trying to save up for a Bonavita.. But then those Technivorm Moccamasters look so darn satisfying

Yeah and the 190 degree thing is off too. It’s 195-205. Many recommend 201 as the ideal. Im not making this up... Caffeine is just highly addictive. 

As far as I understand it, Coltrane’s ‘giant steps’ are the unconventional key changes that happen at a dauntingly rapid pace. They jump across the circle of fifths every few seconds, resulting in a chunk of notes being sharped or flatted . The soloing musician has to reorient in physically and mentally and that piano…

Sadly, I think you all mean Warriors-Celtics. Sorry

I miss interiors like this. I don't need to feel like I'm in a fancy living room or a futuristic media wonderland. Just make feel like I'm piloting an exquisite tool and I'm cool for doing so. Less screens so I can engage my senses, more feedback for the driver. I don't mean to beat a dead horse but tenderized meat…

On the other hand, Albert Pujols’ contract:performance is a pretty explicit argument for shorter contracts. Sure, he’s old, but a player’s decline is always coming and there’s no reason to give a 10 yr deal. Besides, the player that gets that deal risks becoming untradeable and stuck on a bad team for years if the…

My 2000 XJ sport would get cruddy battery terminals. I used to take a hammer and lightly tap the terminals around until I could manage to start it. Fun time on a date once--she was game tho!

Once he said something you knew was so wrong you had to deploy those facts, you should’ve just agreed with him and then started talking about Kim Kardashian or something. He wouldve thought you were a pushover and inane and left you alone.

Youre right, actually, my bad. I don't know any stats regarding deaths and accidents involving cycles vs. cars. It may very well be that there is a negligable difference between the two. 

Impractical doesn't necessarily mean dangerous and obnoxious

This looks very good. It's the Z4 that's ugly. But then again I can manage to like-ish the Civic R

Montreal might like a baseball team

So do the people who voted. 

Theres a name for that. 'Sounding,' I think

Yes, because batteries are the Holy Grail

I hate Teslas... But I also hate big trucks. If we can get Challengers and deafening motorcycles involved it’s the perfect opportunity to deploy the nukes.

Wealthy, educated populations are having less than 2 children per couple. Poor, uneducated populations are having way more. That doesn’t mean they’re less intelligent, so you’re right about that. I think the satire that works is the consumer, entertainment, and politically focused stuff (Starbucks, Gatorade . The…
