  1. Question for the fathers of HB. When your kid graduated high school, did you buy your wife a present? And if so I’d love some suggestions.

      @BigRedBuster I know, right? FFS we already have Valentine’s day.

      Hell no I didn’t get my wife a gift when the kids graduated. Why would you? This is a joke, right?

      Sliced russets, pan fried with onion. Or, if new red potatoes, cubed with diced onion and butter in microwave. Gotta have simple baked with butter, sour cream and black pepper with steak.

  6. Was there a food you hated while growing up, only to realize later you hated it because it was made poorly?

     

    I (think) I have a pretty big one: steak. I really did not like actual steaks growing up... ribeyes, T-bones, the like. But it was because I didn't know anything about steaks and my parents would often cook them medium to well done and served with A1. It wasn't until I got older and had well-cooked steaks that I realized I liked them a lot.

      Liver & Onions is awesome. Must use calf’s liver not old cow liver. I soak it in milk for about an hour then coat in flour and brown it. Add plenty of sweet yellow onions while it finishes. Might have that tonight. :P

      Canned peas. My mom often prepared LeSueur canned peas or put them in a casserole and I absolutely hated them. I thought that meant I hated peas but I discovered fresh peas and even frozen peas are not bad at all. Still won’t touch a canned pea with a ten foot pole.

  8. Super Bowl Halftime Show

     

    The entire discussion around this is ridiculous.  Yes, it was different this year than other years.  It appealed to a different crowd that some others.  Great.  

     

    What I find irritating is people who are saying..."this is what it should have always been".  Well....sorry to disappoint you, but there are lots of different generations that watch the Super Bowl and they probably try to appeal to various age groups in different years.

     

    Next year might be totally different and that's fine.

     

    The funny ones are the people claiming...YEAH....they finally appealed to a younger crowd.  Hmmmm....artists from the 90s???  If you're saying that...you're no longer part of the "younger crowd".

      I agree @Apathy  This rap/hip hop show was certainly better than the jock face Weekend type show. And, like Mastadon said, better than some bro country. I can’t really complain anymore because most of the music acts I prefer are using walkers or dead. My time is over, it was a good run :lol:

      Instead of older farts like me complaining about these shows we should simply feel sorry for those of you who had to endure growing up on this music :P

      It sure wasn’t my cup of tea but they have a lot of other people to consider who aren’t 58 yr old rap/hip hop averse white guys. It was actually better than I expected. Eminem is really the only one I was familiar with and he played part of one of the 3 songs I know he does that I actually like, so that was good I guess. (I don’t think Shake That would get the green light :lol:) Historically the halftime shows are usually all hype and a let down anyway.

      Yeah I don’t get cheering for teams just because they’re in your conference. I started today’s games hoping the SEC would lose but then my gambling interests won out :lol:

  18. As dumb and boring and disappointing as bowl games have been so far this year, I'll take the $EC starting out 0-4 as a consolation

  20. Merry Christmas!

      It wasn’t a bad show originally but The Connors is absolutely horrible.

      Hmm, no clue, but I’m 98% sure I’ve seen it. Sounds very familiar.

       

      Should’ve known it wouldn’t be easy with ALL your +1s on the line :lol:
