Goober Peas posted:For the rest of us*, there's always this : This glorious thing reminds me I need to get a photo of my glorious couch and post it on here. I'm very pleased with how my home theater room is going. My wife and I didn't measure the couch and our room before we ordered it, and it was MUCH bigger than we thought. It comfortably seats 7-8. 3-4 can sleep on it stretched out. It's ridiculous. Off to a photo shoot this afternoon. My first engagement shoot of the year..I'm looking forward to it because I haven't photographed much lately and the weather is perfect. Here's a question for everyone -- what is the best gift for a new father? A very close friend of mine is having a son on Thursday. I've known him and his wife for almost 15 years, and I was actually the one who got them to meet. They're the first of all my friends to start popping out babies.

My downstairs entertainment room is an ongoing work in progress. It's my favorite room in the house, and I love to entertain. We bought a giant couch last year that seats 7-8 comfortably and recently added the ottoman. Aside from getting the rear speakers elevated more, what should I do next?

Rhyno posted:Bigger tv/projector. The problem is I'm a cheapass. The only item we've really splurged on in our entire house is that ridiculous couch. What should I look for in a lower-priced projector? I also don't mind buying used.

Rhyno posted:What's the distance from the couch to the tv? I have a 70" in my living room and we're at about 14 feet viewing distance and the thing is honestly too big. 10-13ft probably. The 51" we have down there feels fine but I have wall space for more.

Galler posted:Grand Prix GTP if I remember right. If I had found one for a reasonable price before I found my Fit I probably would have bought one. Supercharged 3800 I test drove and looked at a few GXPs, but the lovely transmission kept me from buying.

Rhyno posted:I've lost 14lbs in the last 6 weeks. Nice! Keep it up. I discovered 2 weeks ago that I'm capable of doing pull-ups. I'd always been too fat as a kid/young adult and never tried. Up to 10 in a row now. meatpimp posted:How many of you are still driving in your AI-sanctioned Reeboks that we got cheap as poo poo? I wore holes in mine so quick. I've never had a pair of shoes so comfortable though. I had some Piloti driving shoes I bought when I blew out the Reeboks, but then I blew those out and now Piloti is out of business and no one makes a good driving shoe.

Liquid Communism posted:Too true. I live in Des Moines, but I've got family down in Trenton, MO I spend time with every summer. It's crazy down there. It's nuts how much the terrain changes south of the state line. My wife's family lives 15 minutes north of Missouri and I've ventured south a few times when visiting them just to cruise around. It goes from typical Iowa rolling hills to big steep hills and trees really quickly. On another note I sincerely loving regret volunteering to work on Memorial Day. The weather is supposed to be perfect all weekend and all my friends went to a lake in Wisconsin for the weekend. I also have to work a half day today. ...and I'm hungover because I like cheap tequila.

Anyone ever tried Mad Dog 357? A friend gave a little bit to me as a joke once. I thought my face was melting.

Yeah I love spicy stuff quite a bit, and just ate a pile of eggs covered in sweet delightful sriracha. Some of the stuff is just stupid though. I guess I can understand it if you're adding a drop or two to a pot of chili.

85*F outside and I'm about to go to the beach with my gorgeous wife, her sister, and her friend. I also just ate a loving awesome sandwich. I have no complaints.
