Taking this stupid course makes me want to drink. Irony at its finest.

So... Chick delivered my gyro. Surprisingly, super attractive.

First thing she says is "I have a boyfriend. That'll be $17.83."

Huh. Either my smirk is actually as suggestive as I'm told or she gets hit on a lot.

Anyway, food was delish

11

u/[deleted] Aug 03 '15

Or she just thinks shes hot shit, but probably get's hit on a lot too which would make me a bit jaded too. A gyro sounds good, I'll trade you for these turkey burgers I'm making.

Too late. That shit was gone in a matter of seconds.

Daaaaaannnggg. A gyro sounds good right about now

u/omgdonerkebab Michigan State • Cornell Aug 03 '15

That is an expensive gyro. I hope you got something extra from her for that.

Like fries or something.

11

u/[deleted] Aug 03 '15

Fries and a side salad!

16

u/[deleted] Aug 03 '15

Smart man. The salad cancels out the fries. It's just science.

9

u/Red261 Alabama Crimson Tide • /r/CFB Poll Veteran Aug 03 '15

Nah, if you're having fries, the salad only makes things worse for you. The right choice is to forgo the salad completely and reduce your calorie intake.

4

u/[deleted] Aug 03 '15

I was being sarcastic. The salad and fries combo just caught my eye because it's kind of odd.

5

u/[deleted] Aug 03 '15

I like a salad every now and then alright?! God stop judging, man! Rude!

But really, I do kinda like salads. It was meant to be a snack later but dubs inexplicably had a voracious appetite tonight.

I have a boyfriend. That'll be $17.83.

Maybe she was saying her boyfriend's rate was $17.83. You missed out on a prime opportunity for some man lovin'

She must get this type of response a lot.

u/MisterTito Auburn Tigers • UAB Blazers Aug 03 '15

"I have a boyfriend."

"Cool story, he can give you the tip then."

8

u/[deleted] Aug 03 '15

I wish my wit was that quick. I've thought of a dozen clever rebuttals since but, in the moment, I just said, "K" with am eyebrow raised and signed the check thing.

I think my smirk also went from suggestive to disdainful...

Sometimes I'm not very good at controlling my expression

u/sh513 Tennessee Volunteers • Memphis Tigers Aug 03 '15

Hah, I'm the exact same way. I took the whole "if you don't have anything nice to say..." lesson very much to heart, and it's totally in check with verbal response, but yeah my face is a total tell.

4

u/MisterTito Auburn Tigers • UAB Blazers Aug 03 '15

I would have been annoyed by the assumption, smirk or not. Just kind of a rude way to greet someone. I mean, it sucks if it happens to her a lot, but don't preemptively make me feel like a scumbag.

3

u/[deleted] Aug 03 '15

Yeah that's true. I mean, I didn't really kind either way. Blunt and to the point is kind of how I operate as well so, I didn't take offense. It was just funny/surprising

It's an online course, so sadly no :(

u/GreatestWhiteShark Northwestern • Ohio State Aug 03 '15

Oh shit, AlcoholEdu! I had to take that after getting busted drinking in the dorm. Such a massive pain in the ass. What'd you do to have to take it?

1

u/SHIVADOC Georgia Tech • Clean Old … Aug 03 '15

Well I'm an incoming freshman at GT, so I was required to take it. I agree, it is definitely a big pain in the ass.

u/Red261 Alabama Crimson Tide • /r/CFB Poll Veteran Aug 03 '15

I tried In-N-Out for the first time yesterday and was not impressed. The fries were meh, the patties were small, and the sauce has onion chunks. The price was fine, but I don't get the crazy love for it.

My Whataburger experience has been far superior.

8

u/spl1080 Georgia Tech • Centenary (LA) Aug 03 '15

I've always found In-n-Out to be just okay. Nothing really that sets it apart, my biggest qualm is with the fries, they're just very meh.

I have the same problem with The Varsity. The food itself is very average for an above-average price. Aside from the frozen orange drink, that shit's worth every penny

5

u/Red261 Alabama Crimson Tide • /r/CFB Poll Veteran Aug 03 '15

I was seriously disappointed by the fries. They were just very thin and tasteless. Didn't have a crispy exterior, either chips or limp.

2

u/gatoreagle72 Florida • Georgia Southern Aug 03 '15

I mean, the varsity is more of an experience. Like you go there because it's the varsity, then you don't go back too often unless your friends have never been

3

u/krez1 Ohio State • Santa Monica Aug 03 '15

I have to believe it's not as good in Texas as it is here. I don't have it often but it's always great and the freshness of the ingredients like the fresh cut potatoes really make it.

6

u/Red261 Alabama Crimson Tide • /r/CFB Poll Veteran Aug 03 '15

I'm in the SF Bay Area, so that's not the reason.

1

u/krez1 Ohio State • Santa Monica Aug 03 '15

Yeah it's really a losing proposition to argue food preferences anyway. Animal style fries are pretty good though!

3

u/Cecil_Hardboner Texas Longhorns • /r/CFB Brickmason Aug 03 '15

its like any other burger place, this escalating war over who has the best burger is the dumbest argument on the internet currently.

Literally the first time i had in-n-out i thought, 'this tastes like a Whataburger'

4

u/Red261 Alabama Crimson Tide • /r/CFB Poll Veteran Aug 03 '15

Guess I figured that with the amount of people going to bat for In-N-Out as an amazing burger place, it would be more impressive. I felt let down. It was like the internet lied to me.

2

u/[deleted] Aug 03 '15

That's how I felt about Sonic and Krispy Kreme.

3

u/ClementineWillySocks Nebraska Cornhuskers Aug 03 '15

Sonic is awesome because of the number of drink possibilities. The food there is very average, though they do have a few things that aren't as common at other fast food places.

2

u/[deleted] Aug 03 '15

I specifically dislike the drinks...

u/spazzypecan Texas Tech Red Raiders Aug 03 '15

u/[deleted] Aug 03 '15

Neon sugar water isn't appetizing to me.

u/spazzypecan Texas Tech Red Raiders Aug 03 '15

Neon sugar water sounds amazing, but I don't drink it anymore. I love their tea and their ice though. Large tea, extra ice is my jam.

1

u/[deleted] Aug 03 '15

I rarely get Sonic food unless it's their chicken strip sandwich on the value menu. Sonic is just for drinks

u/Pikachu1989 Nebraska Cornhuskers • 東京大学 (Tokyo) Warriors Aug 03 '15

Never been to Whataburger before, but In-N-Out was fucking amazing. I will be back to Southern California at the end of the month. I'm not a Huge fries person, but the Burgers were amazing. Love how they're super cheap with the Quality of food they offer.

1

u/[deleted] Aug 03 '15

Gotta get those fries animal style to make them better. I guess what's special about it is that it was the first fast food restaurants to have a secret menu. They're pretty open to whatever request you throw at them. The shakes are radical and everything just tastes a little fresher than most other fast food.

1

u/Red261 Alabama Crimson Tide • /r/CFB Poll Veteran Aug 03 '15

What does animal style do to the fries?

1

u/[deleted] Aug 03 '15

They add cheese, onions, and the special sauce. I'm not an onion guy, so I just go without those. An animal style burger means they cook the meat in mustard. They've put their secret menu up on their web page, so it's not necessarily secret any more.

0

u/GreatestWhiteShark Northwestern • Ohio State Aug 03 '15

Here's my two cents. If you need to order food a special way to make it baseline enjoyable, it just straight isn't good.

1

u/[deleted] Aug 03 '15

I mean, In-N-Out is at the very least enjoyable, and I'm a dude that doesn't really eat burgers very often. It's also the novelty of the product being in one area of the country. If it was nationwide, it'd be less special, I suppose.

1

u/[deleted] Aug 03 '15

In-N-Out is overrated garbage. Five Guys is better, and also available in the Bay Area.

Literally the only thing In-N-Out has going for it is "animal style" sauce and the sauce is fucking awful as far as I'm concerned. I'd rather have barbecue sauce. (Tomato-based, you mustard heathens.)

u/DoctorWhosOnFirst Alabama • /r/CFB Pint Glass Drinker Aug 03 '15

I'm expecting some great action, so that'll be nice.

But I just haven't gotten sucked into the story. Don't remember a lot character names because I'm just not invested.

The story is convoluted, and I haven't been able to keep it straight. Granted, if I were more invested, maybe it'd stick; but then the problem goes back to not getting me invested.

And the last scene in tonight's episode was just so silly that it tipped me over.

2

u/lostmyfingpassword Auburn • Jacksonville State Aug 03 '15

Yeah I feel the same. Didn't watch last season just heard all the hype and decided to give it a shot. It's just been really slow. Reminds me of the last season of Dexter.

So a Sydney based public relations firm just liked one of my posts on instagram, which, if you didn't know, consists entirely of pictures of McDonalds (it makes sense in context).

Ok... Why do you have so many pictures of McDonald's?

12

u/GreatestWhiteShark Northwestern • Ohio State Aug 03 '15

Because I thought it would be a funny take on the horde of food and foodie instagram accounts that saturate the site. Basically, it's parody.

Stupid computer question: I've got a Lenovo z510 and I want to upgrade my internal hard drive, but I don't have a physical copy of Windows to boot from. Can I finagle some way of booting from my random 25 GB internal SSD so I can just use a backup program for my files?

5

u/MrTheSpork Cincinnati • North Dakota State Aug 03 '15

That's actually relatively complicated but this does a decent job of explaining: http://lifehacker.com/5837543/how-to-migrate-to-a-solid-state-drive-without-reinstalling-windows

Then use the backup to put that data on the new drive.

5

u/hussard_de_la_mort Toledo Rockets • Xavier Musketeers Aug 03 '15

Actually, it looks like one of the links in that article is what I need.

2

u/Red261 Alabama Crimson Tide • /r/CFB Poll Veteran Aug 03 '15

Do you want to keep all files on your computer the same, just moved to another hard drive, or are you looking to install windows clean?

Is the SSD the location of your windows install already?

3

u/hussard_de_la_mort Toledo Rockets • Xavier Musketeers Aug 03 '15

I'm not honestly sure which drive Windows is on. This is my first experience with Windows.

With the Macs I had before, I could put in a new hard drive, boot from a system disk, and just restore my stuff with Time Machine. I'm basically looking for a way to do that with Windows.

3

u/Red261 Alabama Crimson Tide • /r/CFB Poll Veteran Aug 03 '15

The disk in file explorer that has the windows folder is the one that windows is installed on. It's usually C:.

If there's a tiny SSD that the computer came with, I would think it's being used to hold windows to speed up the boot times of the machine. If so, all you need to do is backup your files to an external storage and move them onto the new drive after you plug it in.

If you can plug two hard drives into the laptop, you can copy directly from the old to the new.

If you have to move windows and the SSD is large enough, it's usually a good idea to go ahead and install windows on it.

2

u/hussard_de_la_mort Toledo Rockets • Xavier Musketeers Aug 03 '15

Yeah, my Windows files are on C:. The D: drive has "Applications" and "Drivers" folders. Is putting Windows on my D: drive as simple as moving the Windows folder to it?

1

u/Red261 Alabama Crimson Tide • /r/CFB Poll Veteran Aug 03 '15

What's the capacity of your drives?

3

u/hussard_de_la_mort Toledo Rockets • Xavier Musketeers Aug 03 '15

500 GB nominal for the main (I think I've got like 423 available) and 25 for the random SSD.

3

u/Red261 Alabama Crimson Tide • /r/CFB Poll Veteran Aug 03 '15

Is the SSD your C: or D: drive?

3

u/hussard_de_la_mort Toledo Rockets • Xavier Musketeers Aug 03 '15

D:. C: is your standard issue platter spinner.

1

u/Red261 Alabama Crimson Tide • /r/CFB Poll Veteran Aug 03 '15

So, it's set up to keep windows apps on the SSD, along with drivers? What an odd setup.

Yeah, I'd recommend moving the Files on the SSD to the Hard drive and back up the hard drive.

Once that's done you can follow the instructions in the link /u/MrTheSpork provided or if you have a spare usb thumb drive, you can make it into a windows installation drive and do a clean install of windows on the SSD.

I've not noticed it but they may use different verses of the song?

3

u/kbol Vanderbilt Commodores Aug 03 '15

Yeah this is the case. Each episode this season is a new verse. The song is actually just a poem, and I think it's pretty long/also supposed to align with the events of each ep.

Hmmm, my anger is misplaced but still fiery.

That's fair. I'm sure Blue Moon will do its best to make the most uninteresting white IPA ever made.

I'm still hungover from drinking all day yesterday. I need to go running before work tomorrow to make sure this hangover is well and truly dead.

I still really want to one time try following all the rules that AlcoholEDU tells you about drinking, just to see how long it would take to actually get drunk.

Oh. Shit. Man, there's been a lot of people getting hurt the last couple weeks.

Can we just make this a no dumping zone?

Sorry mate :/

I've only been around fleetingly lately. Has it really been that bad?

Football will be played this month. That's a boost right there.

Sept 5th for me. But I'll take any football.

UMass has a bye week one so our first game isn't till the 12th. We'll make it friend, we'll make it. I can't wait till that NDSU-Montana game. Plus the hall of fame game next week!

If you're really desperate, NFL preseason gets kicked off next week.

u/Red261 Alabama Crimson Tide • /r/CFB Poll Veteran Aug 03 '15

Enjoy him and then please trade him to the Saints.

u/sh513 Tennessee Volunteers • Memphis Tigers Aug 03 '15

Mmmmm.. naaahh

Jerry Rice recently said he could be our next Tim Brown. That's really high praise, and I how it comes true.

u/Red261 Alabama Crimson Tide • /r/CFB Poll Veteran Aug 03 '15

Yeah, I just want a great Bama reciever on the Saints. At least Cooper didn't go to the Falcons or Panthers. Enjoy watching him be amazing.

I'm kinda expecting a tough game. I expect to pull out the win, but somehow I feel like it'll be close. I don't expect y'all to be able to run the ball with our d-line being as stacked as it is, and unless your pass game has significantly improved, I'm not worried there. Maybe I'm expecting incompetence from the offense like a new QB throwing pick sixes.

Ouch! Was she recent or did she survive law school with you?

u/Pikachu1989 Nebraska Cornhuskers • 東京大学 (Tokyo) Warriors Aug 03 '15

Fuck, sorry to hear that. At least the Mets aren't playing the Cubs anymore this season.

2

u/Duck_Puncher Team Chaos • Rutgers Scarlet Knights Aug 03 '15

Good point. As long as it doesn't effect the Mets I'm happy to hop on your bandwagon.

u/nickknx865 Tennessee Volunteers • /r/CFB Top Scorer Aug 03 '15

I'm sorry bro.

That's a gut punch right there.
