Everyone likes what they like, and I should be the last to judge considering I enjoy watching cross country skiing, but American Football seems so boring to me. I've watched a few matches, and it's all just waiting around. And the commercials, jesus, it's like you're watching commercials for two hours interspersed with a few minutes of sports here and there. Sure, a run can be really exciting, but there's hardly a lot of those, and I'm dubious that they're worth all the shitty videos of cars driving around, or Great Offers for insurance.

How else will you know that you can save 15% in 15 minutes with Geico!

I love Oregon Ducks College Football. Mainly because I am from Eugene and grew up on Campus and lived down the road from Autzen. NFL I usually only care about stats due to FFB.

Do you think important traits and life lessons can be applied to one's own life from Tom Brady's excellence? I mean its pretty unparalleled in the world of professional sports, yeah? I think I'm gonna buy that $600 TB12 method cookbook.

Let's just ignore Kareem playing for 20 NBA seasons after 4 years at UCLA (only three of which he could actually play) from the 1960s to 1989. He couldn't have as much to teach as Brady.

That's right the Clan was a Oregon Ducks clan. Good times.

Does anyone ever post packages from the USA to say London?

I want to send friends there a small care package of sweets and such. You’d think the process would be simple and easy but the usps website sucks! I got a quote for priority male which cost a fortune.

Has to be an easier way

There is an easier way. Regular mail, no priority or any bonus or pluss or whatever offer. Just standard shipping. That should be relatively cheap no matter where you are in the world.

Okay is there a war against napkins? Is it to be green? Is it penny pinching but if I get takeout I notice restaurants seem to never add napkins anymore.

[Malankazooie]

It's probably more just oversight and poor training of new staff. That's been my experience anyway. Also probably a bit of being really busy thrown in there as well, but then that really is just an excuse for inadequately trained staff. Give them a few complaints with hopefully a manager hearing the complaints too, and they will probably whip the operation into shape.

Okay Malazan Yank, I think this thread is where Popeyes made a brief discussion due to the face punching desirability of their Chicken Sandwich. Well, they introduced a new line of chicken nuggets that are supposed to be as face punching desirable. I gave them a try. And while they are really great as far as texture (crunchy, crisp, etc) they have little to no taste. In fact, if you decide to try them make sure you get a dipping sauce. I recommend the "Sweet Heat" sauce. In fact, get extra and dip your biscuit into the sauce, it's more flavorful than the chicken nuggets.

I didn't do the review justice, but this fancy lad shoots it pretty straight and does a better job than I can ever attempt to.

Its the on gojng adventures of me 'Cause - The Malazan Yank'!

I move into my new apartment on October 15th. My biggest concern at the moment is what mattress to get! Does anyone have any experience of buying a mattress recently? Do I go for the luxury of the Tempur-pedic, are the mattreses that come in boxes any good? Any thoughts and advice welcome

[Morgoth]

Not a big fan of the tempur stuff myself, but a mattress certainly is one thing you spend proper money on. I would also recommend a top-mattress, though I have been told those are uncommon in the US.

[Aptorian]

I've heard that if you remove the tag from a mattress they'll deport you.

[Vengeance]

This is America we shoot you. Those are not to be removed!

We got a Mattress from Parachute that has been fantastic. We don't like soft mattresses, and I like springs. We also wanted to do something that was less toxic. A good mattress is not cheap.

Sorry. They'll shoot you and then deport you, Cause.

[Cause]

Maybe it’s more like a human cannon situation. And they’d hoot you out of the country to deport you.

[Malankazooie]

If you can hold off, wait until President's Day (or one of the other federal holidays that give you a Monday off). There's usually sales around those times.

Also, general rule of thumb (taking personal preference into account) - go firm. It's better for the back.

Might want to make sure they'll also assemble whatever you have supporting the mattress without wanting to charge you extra. (Unless you'd rather do it yourself.)

No mattress, only hammock
