It's legit, I bought one from Amazon on black Friday and we've used it at least twice a week every week since then. They're amazingly versatile, you can pretty much do anything that isn't baking or roasting with one. Last night I cooked three pounds of pork shoulder that came out falling apart after 30 minutes. A few weeks ago we made a cheesecake in it (this being the exception to "can't bake in it"), and it obviously works really well for making soups and stews.

I want to get laser eye surgery but I saw a video of them doing it and it freaked me the gently caress out. Also I'm a broke student.

No, but I thought I heard about people getting bad halos/lens flare on things like street lights, headlights, and red dot sights afterward? Google isn't giving me much so maybe I dreamed it.

GoGoGadgetChris posted:heh. It flattens your cornea so that yes, you will get a bit of a halo around lights. It's noticeable, but you get used to it and it's nothing more than slightly distracting. There are some cases of it being debilitating, however, that is the vast minority of patients. As for red dot sights, I have them and never experienced anything from them. Here we go.  I still get a bit of the starburst effect, but I don't notice it unless it's a very bright light.

Ditto. I got mine done in South Korea back in 2011, still get a little bit of starbursting but not terrible at all, and I have 20/20 in both eyes now.

To be safe you should upgrade to a holo sight. It gives you more of an increase to accuracy anyway, without lowering TTK.

I didn't realize some people *didn't* see starbursts when looking at lights in the dark until they tested me. Thankfully lasik didn't make it worse.

  2012 Subaru Forester 2.5X. My 2004 needed too much work done to where it just wasn't worth it to pump more money into it. Missing my gigantic sunroof, but considering these things hardly ever come on the market with the mileage/price combo that this one had... I snatched it up.

 Preorder. Just the base game, though, since there was no info about what the Season Pass includes.

It was a bit too sugary for my tastes, but tasty otherwise, and no HFCS aftertaste  Agreed on the price, though--it was good, but it'll probably only be a once-a-month thing, if even that frequent.

It's a split trigger safety which is a safety device. You have to push the middle part in before the trigger will depress and fire the weapon. Helps with preventing accidental discharges from something hitting the trigger.

Reverse Centaur posted:I didn't realize some people *didn't* see starbursts when looking at lights in the dark until they tested me. Thankfully lasik didn't make it worse. Same here. Turns out I have mild astigmatism. Not terrible, I can pass the vision test at the DMV without glasses, but obviously it's worse at night when all the headlights, brake-lights, and streetlamps are blurry, so I have glasses and try to wear them all the time so I'm used to wearing them when I actually need them (i.e. driving at night.)

Everyone's commenting about the expensive NES but no one noticed the $1,000 electric motor longboard? (Once again, I'm not shaming you for buying it. I'm just... astonished that it exists. Is it for people who live in the Canadian prairies where there's no such thing as a hill?) strangemusic has a new favorite as of 22:12 on Feb 24, 2016 |

Which one means it is OK to make fun of purchases we think are worth making fun of? That one has my vote. I think it's the latter. Edit: a motorized longboard? Smdh I thought that goon meant 22mph downhill.
