BrokenKnucklez posted:Lets just say I am pretty sure there was still a quill from a feather last time I ate wings at BWW. Never loving again. The local bar near me does some good wings, they are cheaper, and it keeps my business local. I found plenty of those while working at Pizza Hut. Found a couple of heads too.  scuz posted:There's a place in town on campus that sells their wings "Joey style" which are not to be missed. Baked, flash fried, then lightly grilled. Putting down two dozen of those is no chore, it's a privilege. Supposedly Pizza Hut is going to start partially cooking their wings in the fryer in the morning, then running them through the oven when ordered. Supposed to be a bit bigger too. It's a franchise by franchise thing from what I understand. I don't see the point (to what PH is going to start doing) except to speed up cooking time - it takes 11 minutes to cook bone-in wings in their fryers. Geoj posted:A friend of mine recently beat a urine test in about the same time frame you're dealing with - his strategy (aside from abstaining for about a month) was start drinking massive quantities of water 12 hours before the test was scheduled, then take a handful of multivitamins an hour before and chase with an energy drink or two around 30 minutes before. Also important to eat slightly more calories than maintenance rate to ensure you aren't burning fat and releasing metabolites stored in the fat. Some companies consider a test that comes back as diluted (which it will if you chug a ton of water) to be as bad as a positive, some send you back for a re-test. The vitamins and energy drinks don't really help THAT much. I've done that same regimen before, and the test still came back as diluted.

Those are some of the worst god drat things I have ever eaten. I'm so sad I can't find good wings in socal. Rosatis, a loving chain from Chicago, are the best I've found so far. Best restaurant wings I've had in my life were at Horse and Cow in Guam, though. Also, hosed up on something I was making for the wife. It's particle board, and I forgot you need a thick rear end primer to cover bare spots. So now I have brown showing through the coloured paint. gently caress.

And yeah, they're terrible. ... partly because the ones I've worked at go entirely too drat long without changing the oil. I've seen one store that would go 6-8 weeks. It's supposed to be changed when it starts to foam or smoke at all; I've seen the fryers overflow from foam because the oil was so old.

Ooo, gonna try that. I keep a fair number of windows and tabs open in Chrome, and Flash/java eventually end up running away on my Mac, because Apple hates flash and java, or vice versa. Probably both. kimbo305 posted:Went to LA for the weekend, and the AIest car I saw was a McLaren 650 or 675. He was tearing it from light to light on Sunset. Really? When I was in El Segundo, just south of LA, the most common car I saw was a Prius. They were everywhere, even taxicabs.

NitroSpazzz posted:Depends on the family. I usually show up with a good bottle of rum or whiskey and a case of beer. There will be no shortage of alcohol. However I'm more concerned with the implications of bring a bottle of old english to the dinner table with all my square cousins who don't drink and there's atleast one I can think of that will make a snarky remark if I do it. I did buy one with the intention of giving to my uncle as a joke. We'll see how the room reads when I get there, I may decide that its my personal bottle for the evening.

I thought NOT having alcohol was the socially unacceptible thing to do at Christmas? nm posted:Any drug testing that isn't gc/ms is basically reading tea leaves. Ad even then, there's quite clearly ways to mask that all testing methods just wont pick up. The more I dig into how pro athletes can use PED's and recreationals with impunity, the more drug testing for work / roadside purposes just looks like a complete joke. And frankly it is a complete loving joke, gently caress this bullshit we have about recreational drugs and the hangups with it. FFS, half the poo poo banned is waaaaaaay less problematic than Alcohol and that's a godawfully huge social issue. I'd rather be in a room with bombed out weed smokers than a bunch of legless drunks anyday.

Moti from Blackbird Fabworx was a really good episode, and Emilio from 949 Racing is another fantastic ep. As for other stuff to listen to, if you haven't listened to last year's Serial, do that. Otherwise.... look for the giant Loveline torrent and listen to a bunch of radio from the early 2000s.

I unsub'd to Carcast because it's now basically one part Adam bitching and one part a guest they had on the show a year ago that doesn't have anything new to talk about. Mix in some bad information and you've got a Podcast! Car Stories is decent as is Motorweek and Motor Trend Audio. For non car related podcasts I highly recommend Reply All and Surprisingly Awesome.

God drat it. Friend took his car to get new tires and an alignment, after I showed up they gave up on trying to sell him random poo poo and told me he was missing a caster adjustment bolt on the drivers side. I have no idea what it would even look like outside of a bolt with an eccentric washer paired with it that goes into the control arm and we have no listing for it in any catalog at work. Even better, since its an eclipse, google gets me nothing but stanced fucksticks who have taken the cars to quicky lube mc rip off express and been told their alignment is turbo hosed with no explination of how it was fixed outside of "I gave them money and they unfucked my stupid rear end piece of poo poo crapcan".

Kottke or one of the other "here's a link to an interesting thing" blogs had something on those fancy batik fabric prints you see in African clothes. Apparently they design and made all that fabric in Holland and anyway this is one of them and it's is AI as hell, thought you'd all enjoy it as much as I do: (click for huge)

iwentdoodie posted:I honestly thought they were baked, or even just nuked. The ones I've tried weren't even vaguely crisp. Just a soggy, nasty loving mess. Nope. Most of the stores I've been in have 3 fryers - some small ones only have 2. My last one had 3, but they only used the 3rd for superbowl (it didn't even have oil in it the rest of the year). Papa John's bakes their wings, but they're pre-cooked. Same with Jet's. Managed to find a picture from the first PH I worked at (which is now closed, building has been empty for almost a year)  Those baskets also rarely ever got washed. They'd get rinsed off a couple of times a week. I know 350F oil will kill anything, but you wouldn't believe how much poo poo would get caked on to the baskets.nm posted:Any drug testing that isn't gc/ms is basically reading tea leaves. Every (urine) drug test I've had to take was sent off for gc/ms confirmation if there was anything that came up positive on the initial test. And as I learned, they can go as far as to narrow down which, say, benzo, you've been on (I have a prescription for librium, and there's been a few times where I got a call saying they found librium and needed the rx info).

Nodoze posted:Steam Winter Sale time Thanks for this, I've been wanting to rebuy and replay crysis for years, I loaned it to a friend and he lost it in a move. It's been perpetually $20, this is the first time I've seen it for less, and it's $5. And yes my friend should buy it for me, but if I told him he owes me $20 I'd never get it. I can definitely squeeze $5 out of him. He also lost my copy of Pulp Fiction, I'm thinking I should stop loaning him poo poo. At least he feels bad and says he'll pay me back for it, I just have to do the re-purchasing myself and then bug him for the money.

Our local Hooter's was shut down after a drunk guy walked out into the highway and got himself ran over. Turns out they were massively over-serving patrons.  Star Wars was decent. Fun action flick, dialogue was cheesy as hell, and there were too many "See what we did there?" nods to the original trilogy. I'm not a Star Wars superfan or anything, though.
