Does anyone have interest in a thread being made for discussion on the Serial podcast?? Episode 9 came out today and I like everyone else who has listened, I'm hooked. For those that don't know what I'm talking about there is a NPR podcast spinoff about a 15 year old murder case that had a conviction of an ex-boyfriend that didn't make a lot of sense to outside observers. I don't want to spoil anything so let me just say it is way more interesting than what I just described and very, very well made.
I need to look that up. I went through a phase in high school where I read a ton of true crime books. I think it was after Silence of the Lambs & I was convinced I wanted to work for the FBI as a forensic doctor.
Was just informed that Websters Dictionary has updated the definition of the word literally. Apparently now one of it's definitions is the way people say I am litterally going to do this, when they really mean figuratively. Interesting.
I blame this guy
Brad literally HATES Rob Lowe & wanted to stop watching P&R after he was more involved.
I've never done it myself, but I'm not opposed to dumpster diving. When I worked in a restaurant, I was shocked at how much perfectly good food would get tossed at the end of the night. My asshole manager used to tell me to put the food at the bottom of the dumpster so people wouldn't scavenge, and I never did. I'm not wasting perfectly good food just because you can't make a buck on it... manager logic.
If I remember correctly (it's been a while), that lady served everyone their meal and then told them after the fact that it came from a dumpster. I would at least like to know that ahead of time, personally. Also, her guests could totally tell something was amiss with their food. She wasn't using things that were particularly edible, and I think if anything she made dumpster diving look much worse by serving these people borderline spoiled food. Some things should stay in the dumpster
For a more positive view of this type of living, there's a great documentary by Agnes Varga about people using/eating discarded items called "The Gleaners and I". I'd recommend it for anyone.

I LOVE THIS MOVIE
ME TOO! I wish we lived close enough to be able to watch it together. As soon as I posted about it I immediately wanted to see it again.

I just started listening to this yesterday, and I've already listened to all but the newest episode. I seriously listened to three of them before I got to work this morning, and I'm planning on listening to the newest one on my way home from work. Then I plan on crying because the next one doesn't come out for two whole weeks!
As an aside, I don't know if you listen on the podcast app or directly, but on serialpodcast.org, they are asking for donations so they can do another season after this one.
I love rice pudding at indian restaurants, especially if it's on their lunch buffet.
This is correct. Sometimes, I want to go to the Indian buffet and just eat rice pudding. My local store has single serving packs of "Mexican style" rice pudding for 99 cents. I have been wearing those out.

'Jok' (rice porridge) is probably the most popular breakfast dish here. Some eat it with pork/shrimp, which I can't do. I like mine with a bit of condensed milk and honey, maybe some banana or mango. Sooo good.
My son was sitting on my lap as I was scrolling through a thread. He said "Hey, that dancing girl looked like you!" I scrolled back up... yep, it was me.

I misunderstood; I thought they knew beforehand. This changes everything!
Pro tip: find a pizza place that serves slices, and wait by the dumpster around closing time. It's always the low man on the totem pole who gets stuck with that job (Charlie work), so generally not too difficult to sweet-talk your way into some free pie or calzones before they're commingling with all that nasty stuff. Boom! Interception.
There's a funky vegetarian restaurant here that's pay-by-donation; it has saved me from an empty stomach and empty wallet more than a few times. I'm definitely planning on volunteering there once my schedule is a bit freer this summer.
...also, Greek rice pudding trumps all other rice puddings.

They tell us "Rock'n'roll is the devil's music." Well, let's say we know that rock is the devil's music, and we know that it is, for sure … At least he fuckin' jams! If it's a choice between eternal Hell and good tunes, and eternal Heaven and New Kids on the fuckin' Block … I'm gonna be surfin' on the lake of fire, rockin' out.

Some guy just sent me his resume and one of his jobs is with Fannyjam. I thought a company with that name deserved looking into. It's a company that makes fanny packs with speakers. They cost $50. I'm dying laughing right now, this is so stupid. fannyjam.com/
That is something Kenny Powers would wear with pride. Delivering awesomeness indeed.

willsfc Thanks man. I appreciate the help. Still havent decided if I wanna shell out the cash for a phantom or not yet but I enjoy photography and think I would be able to get some really good shots at Bonnaroo, work, etc. What kind of drone and/or camera setup do you have if you dont mind me asking? You're probably right about flying it around in Centeroo...last thing I'd want is to lose control of the thing and have it come crashing down on some unsuspecting roo'er. Though I did see a couple flying overhead during Elton, Vampire, and Jack White.
I have a Original DJI Phantom and a GoPro Hero3 Silver, if you like photography get one for sure, it is awesome. Just be mindful of the regulations and stuff. Lots of bad press about these lately
i'm not really sure where to post this. i know there are a decent amount of people here from pittsburgh and that go to shows in pittsburgh. i saw this deal today and wanted to share. for $50 you get $100 towards any drusky entertainment promoted shows from now until the end of 2015.
Why is the last hour of work always the longest? This has been scientifically proven, right?
I save a bunch of "chores" for the last hour. Like cleaning my dishes in the break room. Shredding documents. Cleaning and organizing my desk. Going to the bathroom once or twice. It helps a little.
