Ah, the night before the NFL’s second round. The night before NFL’s Elite Eight is eventually dwindled to its Final Four. Hopes, dreams, and delusion reign, and for many, those will be crushed like an all-you-can eat gravy buffet in Indiana.
Tonight, though, we shall have to entertain ourselves. There is A LOT of NBA action, though I have absolutely no interest in listing any of it here. It starts at 19:00 EST on TWWL.
There is not one JV hoops game featuring a ranked team, though George Washington travels to Dayton at 19:00 on TWWL2. The Flyers are one of those mid-majors that you forget about until March, when they enter the NCAA Tournament as a ten-seed, and wreck your bracket all the way to the Sweet 16. Afterwards, Evansville (PURPLE ACES!) travel to Illinois State to play the Redbirds. One thing I love about nights like this are getting an opportunity to see weird teams and schools you never knew existed. It’s like #MACtion, but, uh… #OVCtion?
On the frozen water, the Ice Stillers travel to Tampa to face the Lightning, there’s another Original Six match-up, as the Blackhawks visit Toronto, and Anaheim hosts Dallas.
The PGA Tour’s first full-field tournament, the Sony Open in Hawaii’s, second round is on Golf Channel, also at 19:00. I know you’re ALL fired up for that!
Of course, there’s always our preferred option of time-wasting: ALCOHOL! Or, in the case of some others, medicinal and/or herbal substances! OR BOTH! The choices are your’s, and your’s alone!
Also, it merits mentioning our own Old School Zero must’ve had New School Zero give him tips from the future, because he just landed himself a new jorb. O AN U NOE HE GON DRANK.
LET’S CHAT, BITCHES
Shit, still thinking about food.
Had this shit in Memphis last October. Gus’s Fried Chicken.
Goodness.

The secret to Jenga, like being a great sniper, is to move on the exhale, so there’s less CO2 in the bloodstream and your hands don’t shake….
entropy moves. Tower stands.
I think replies to existing comments keep the tower up. It’s only brand new comments that remove pieces.
I’m not the only one who ever played DIY drinking Jenga right? Where you write stuff on the pieces?
What’s that?
I honestly cannot think of a single game I haven’t played with added rules and drinking.
As in what/how much to drink? Color me intrigued.
No no, you write all manner of weird shit on the pieces, so each move gives you a task that you can choose to do, or you drink. Or both.
You do what is written on the piece you draw. It might be drinking related, it might not. If you draw a blank tile, you get to pick what to write on it.
For example, we had one piece that said “Play the rest of this game wearing only a towel of your choice”
I was about to say “This gets very humiliating/sexy/both very quickly, doesn’t it.”
That’s well done.
I’m shocked we haven’t rolled over to a new page yet.
Gotta be getting close, right?
I’m scared to type a new comment.
Let’s edge it for a few more minutes.
This is like the end of a really drunken game of Jenga.

I had no idea that anything else would be the case. Strange world.
I dunno, I’d be tempted to eat it. Despite the name.
It’s got to be fun to just order it, right?
“I’ll take a Smithwick’s, shot of Jameson, and the Goblin Cock.”
Sort of feels like it should be shouted.

Also, that looks fucking amazing. I will continue to be pissed off that I don’t have a place that makes excellent sundubu jijae within walking distance.
The Hot Stone bowls were unreal. That soup was bubbling and the other stuff was sizzling. You could feel the heat coming off them from inches away.
You know it’s good when you have to wait 20 minutes to eat it without burning your face off. It’s been too long. So looking forward to my end of February trip.
Did you figure out where you are going?
Vietnam mostly, with a day in Seoul
Sweet! That’s going to be awesome!
Yeah, I haven’t been to Vietnam since 2007 I think? And Korea was 2009 or 10 last time. I’ll be in Cai Bei for half a week, Saigon for half, then Seoul for a day on the way back. I WILL BUY SO MANY 1000 won SOCKS WITH MONKEYS ON THEM.
This one is my favorite…the Led Zepplin. Pulled pork, bacon, cheddar, and ONLY HEATHENS EAT A BURGER WITHOUT PICKLES YOU HEATHENS.

Pickles are fucking gross.
I said it. I stand by it.
It’s okay, we can still be friends. MORE FOR ME.
That’s kinda how I figured it. I also find tomatoes to be somewhat lacking, so you can have those filthy things, too.
You too? How do I weirdly make friends with the tomato haters of the world? Sundried tomatoes are nasty, but any other form I’m cool with.
I can’t explain it, they just have a weird texture to me.
Yeah, I’m not a fan of tomatoes. Textural reasons. Sauces are fine, but tomatoes themselves, not so much.
Store bought tomatoes are tasteless.
Hell no, fork ’em over.
Let’s just split an order of fried pickles and all is simpatico.
What kind of bun is that?
They default to pretzel buns, so if it isn’t that it was a special request. Also, this here is the default, namesake burger.

Given the trend of this thread, I should mention that the burger topping some list of the best burgers in the US is a local Chicago piece of beefy decadence which I can get delivered to my condo. They also have excellent jalapeno poppers and name everything after metal bands. This here is the Goatsnake :

BTW, the one I had on Thursday was bison.
Oh friends! If you get a chance to eat bison, by all means do it. I would become a Buffalo Bills fan I love bison so.
Bison is really good.
Careful grilling/cooking it; very lean and needs to be tended to. Great stuff, also lamb, kangaroo, pork ‘n’ beef, I wanted to try the camel burger but went with kangaroo instead, elk makes great burgers if not overcooked.

My Counter burger is 1/2 lb grass fed beef and I add applewood bacon, sauteed mushrooms, a sunny side up egg, some smoked gouda and onion straws. The sauce is either a garlic aioli, Korean barbecue sauce or red relish.
Throw me a couple of local IPAs and I can handle it

God Bless you Moose!
Dessert is here!
I have gone to both Five Guys and In N Out Burger a sum total of once, each, in my life. I did not care for either, for different reasons. One of my favorite burgers was from Monkey Burger in Tucson, AZ, and I generally find diner burgers to be the best damn things on the planet (if a diner fucks up a bacon cheeseburger, you never go back. It’s simple enough). Fast food does nothing for me.
Five Guys did win the award for both the most disgusting place I have ever eaten, as well as providing the greasiest damn brown paper bag I’d ever seen. It was see-through by the time I got home. In N Out I just plain didn’t like.
Also, being all East Coast n shit, I have to say White Castle is garbage. Pure, untreated sewage.
http://57.media.tumblr.com/944af4c90feffa37d64f8f8c6ed2418c/tumblr_nzwxdfoIDe1uxebowo1_500.gif
I think I upset the Moose.
No, you seem monkey mad. I have no cow in this fight.
Does the East Coast have any decent burger-specific places or is it really just the small diner burgers you like?
Around me, we have a wealth of locally-owned great burger joints. One opened a few years ago with 30 different specialty burgers, and I’ve made it through maybe half and been happy with all of them. It’s called The Burger Shack, and they do the whole “stuffed burger” thing really well.
I’m not a chain guy, so I usually don’t go to those kinds of places. A bar called Molly’s has 8 specialty burgers, all of which are awesome, that weird Giants bar I told you about actually has good burgers for a dive bar, and I can name another five or so places with just mouth-watering burgers that demand repeat business.
I’m kinda spoiled.
There are good burgers on the East Coast, but there aren’t really good burger chains. I don’t trust any place with more than 3 establishments, and even that’s pushing it a bit.
Chili’s started here and we used to eat at the first one, well, it is way different now. I don’t go any more.

I’ve never had a Tommy’s, that’s an L.A. HERESY I know but I can’t get past the idea of adding fresh, cold, wet produce to a chili cheeseburger.
My brain shuts down trying to process it.
You need to try one. You will promptly die from a heart attack, but you have lived a full life, so it will be worth it.
BTW, the only cold thing is the tomato slice, but that’s ok because it helps cool your mouth from the hot chili and burger.
Sup…

I don’t really understand this town’s fascination with In-N-Out Burger. It’s fine and fresh and hot but there are much better burger options out there. They opened a new In-N-Out on the drive home from work and sweet Jesus did it fuck up the traffic when it finally opened.
I’ll throw the first burger salvo:
Five Guys is MUCH better than In-N-Out.
So there!
How DARE you!
To me, they are two completely different burgers, both good, so they are impossible to compare. I agree that the In-N-Out fascination/devotion by many people can be grating, but the burger is amazingly good.
As is Five Guys. Plus peanuts yo.
If Five guys had beer stand the fuck back!
As it is I probably eat about 5 burgers a year, side effect of the whole “old” thing so if I’m gonna eat a burger I’m gonna do the shit right.
This is my joint right chere.

I just went to the DTLA location for lunch yesterday. They also have alcoholic milkshakes which are just fucking amazing.
The best part about The Counter is that you can build the burger to your heart’s content and, if it sucks, it’s your fault. A bit pricey, but worth it. The sides are good too.
I will say that if I lived closer to Father’s Office (site of a previous DFO So-Cal outing) I would probably eat more than 5 burgers a year.
That shit’s ridiculous.

Show/actress? If that’s network TV, I may need to start watching that. Whatever that is.
That’s Kate Mara, from the “classic” Mark Wahlberg vehicle, Shooter (which managed to fuck up a perfectly great novel with a piss-poor adaptation).
It also ruined a great opportunity for some nice Kate without the throw-up associated with Marky showing up on the screen..
And his fucking “southern” accent every time he spoke…. Jesus. That movie just makes me mad.
I know you probably haven’t had one in ages because you want to stay alive, but a Tommy burger is a beautiful thing. That chili…
The last time I had one, I could smell the chili hours later through my sweat. I didn’t mind.
