A friendly place for friends who drink

Excluding its head it's really making more of a tangental plot. y=tan x

Calculus much? What a nerd.

I wasn't even taking the head into account, I guess I could see how it might be interpreted as an acute angle, if you completely ignore his front feet. Cats have feet right? I don't cat.

 

[Hello]

We get that on Fios from time to time and I wonder if it isn't throttling on their part. When it's buffering on Apple TV, I can pull up HBO on my iPad and it plays fine. I am quite suspicious of carriers monkeying with connection speeds to try and save their cable business.

I agree, it is possible they're doing something. The new router will just pay for itself and I'll stop giving TW money for something that they should not charge for anyway. I noticed this happens on the Amazon Fire TV stick but I never experienced it on my Smart TV. Smart TV doesn't have HBO and I need to finish GOT.

All I did when I had TW was upgrade and upgrade and upgrade... the internet always sucked, they drilled holes all over my house and the best internet I had was the original package. Sorry, know that doesn't help. I'd just say, don't upgrade. Especially if you're already getting 50. Maybe it's just a peak time. I had to do the same thing when I tried to play Call of Duty on their internet. Almost every hour on the hour, the game would get real chunky and I'd have to reset my router.

Yeah, I believe giving into the upgrade game could result in me paying $100 for internet. It's BS.

And on a side-note, sounds like my sister in law is divorcing my brother.

Tough but he did kind of make that bed for himself. Still, it is always sad.

Hey all, sorry I've been so absent. Here's an update:

I've officially accepted the new position in Buford, Ga and my last day at work here is March 23rd. I won't have time to brew anything between now and then and I'm going to be scrambling like crazy to get my poop in a group for the move. I won't be checking HBT as often as I usually do from now on, since I have a real job and all, but I want to say thank you to all you awesome guys and gals who have taken my homebrewing to the next level, and have provided some relief from the boredom of a sh*tty job.

cheers to all of you, I'll be around but not often.

-Mat

Congrats. I have a real job...but I'm not important really.


Just got done booking 3 flights from RDU to PHL then from PHL to DAL and back to RDU. I had 3/14 off because I didn't want to drive back from FL to NC hungover after Huna day, but looks like I have to. My boss pressed on getting a meeting handled on Monday and I got ****ed in that respect. If I weren't pro paycheck I'd be whining more. I'll also be spending St. Patty's on a plane after work. At least there will be booze.

I don't appreciate you guys mocking geometry kitty. You better knock it off right meow or else.

Assume a spherical cat of uniform derpyness....

 

[Gavin C]

Following further research it would appear that no, cats do not have feet.

 

[SupervisingChildren]

What's a Synt?

There's really no fixing broken trust... The ppd probably isn't helping things at all, but he done ****ed up. Should have lied like a rug.

True this. Broken trust is hard to fix, but it is possible...

 

[Psylocide]

True this. Broken trust is hard to fix, but it is possible...

I don't know...

You can choose to push through it, but there will always be that nagging memory, a blemish on the entire relationship.

Fried rice and a sample mug of my brown porter. It's quite tasty, but I was expecting more presence from the brown malt. Not sure if I need to use more, or if I just don't like it as much as I was expecting to.

Edit: I was just drinking espresso, so I'll give it a more fair judging tomorrow.

 

[Rhetorik]

Well all I know is that I'm not getting much work done today.

 

[TheCADJockey]

Falling asleep.. at desk.. not gonna make it..

 

[pointcity-homebrew]

And on a side-note, sounds like my sister in law is divorcing my brother.

Divorce sucks, especially if kids are involved.

My sister in law just got a divorce, took two years because her ex is crazy. Seriously, he is the reason I have my CC and carry a 9 everywhere I go.

 

[iijakii]

Yeah, picking up on more subtleties as this goes on. A fine beer. Damn Im good.

 

[mhurst111]

Hop nosh, waiting on my pie.

Congrats on the new job.

Sucks about the divorce.

I haven't read a book in months that didn't have rhyming words, but we are working our way thru the entire Dr. Seuss collection.

Did you put coffee malt in it? You should've put coffee malt in it. If I made a porter, I'd put coffee malt in it.
Also.. I'm going to divorce my job.

I read a lot of Lovecraft to my daughter when she was a baby... It was during that short period of time where just hearing my voice drone on was enough to put her to sleep.

So I educated her on the cosmic horrors of the universe and how tiny and insignificant we all are.

 

[TheCADJockey]

Good thing you have a right... to bear arms.

 

[iijakii]

High 50s and sunny. So awesome outside. Oh well, back to my soul-sucking cube and the office that's too hot because it's winter time so we need to put the heat on, right?

 

[pointcity-homebrew]

Good thing you have a right... to bear arms.

Yeah, especially when said person told a friend of his that a mass killing will be taking place before May.

 

[TheCADJockey]

Yeah, especially when said person told a friend of his that a mass killing will be taking place before May.

 

[Psylocide]

Yeah, especially when said person told a friend of his that a mass killing will be taking place before May.

Well we had better find this 'May' chick right away and make sure she's facing a brick wall for the rest of her life or something.








I'll see myself out.

 

[TheCADJockey]

I'll see myself out.

Tough crowd in here today...

 

[iijakii]

When mine were real little I read them the entire Chronicles of Narnia series.

Now it's my kids reading the books for the most part, so daddy is sitting there biting his tongue as it takes my daughter a minute to read a page with 10 words on it. deep breath, deep breath...you can have a beer when they go to sleep...'good job, little girl!'

 

[finsfan]
