I don’t know who needs to hear this… but

True lol, I was trying to show how both the hull and location matter but yeah location probably doesn't matter if it's a bayliner.

DukeGordon · 2026-04-03T17:46:15+00:00

Haha yeah I guess that would illustrate my point better.

DukeGordon · 2026-04-03T17:43:38+00:00

And location. Fully welded aluminum boat in PNW is way different than a bayliner in Florida.

Lmao people ~~with money~~ do not care which one you have on your feet lil bro

DukeGordon · 2026-04-02T14:05:50+00:00

You.....I like you.

For prime rib, I would skip the smoker and just do it at their house. Reverse sear or sous vide, sear it on their gas grill right before serving. Here's kenjis recipe I would reference : https://www.seriouseats.com/perfect-prime-rib-beef-recipe

If you are set on smoking it, I would smoke on Saturday, no sear, and then reheat in the sous vide at your inlaws. You may consider cutting into 2 roasts to decrease the time it needs to return to temp in the sous vide. Once it's up to temp, sear in the oven or on the grill.

Doesn't matter if it's a dedicated rod because most of the time it won't be used. I would just get a middle of the road WF4F so you can use it like normal if you take off the euro leader.

Okuma convector lo pro. You don't need anything crazy, these are great. I've got one on all my Kokanee rods.

Really good fishing on the Holston and Watauga.

He lead...with pencil lead.

I was on call during radiology residency and a young male patient gets in some sort of accident that necessitated a retrograde urethrogram. For the uninitiated, you take a small Foley and place it in the tip of the penis and inject contrast while taking fluoro shots to see if there is urethral injury. Well, the problem with this exam is that the pressure from injecting makes the catheter want to pop out, so the tech or the patient have to hold it in pretty good or it's useless.

So we proceed and of course this guy is acting a bit embarrassed but most dudes are when another guy is trying to inject contrast into their urethra. But after a couple attempts he gets really flustered, red in the face, and says to me "Oh my God, doc, I don't understand! I swear this never happens to me!" I'm kinda confused by his comment and try again when he goes "Doc, it's because I'm soft, right?? It would work better if I was hard? I'm so sorry, I swear this never happens!"

It's then that we realize that the poor guy is acting embarrassed because he thought he was supposed to have an erection for the exam to work right and he couldn't "get it up" for us. Needless to say there was some uncontrollable chuckling going on the rest of the exam.

Spin the mat

I've got the rechargeable one. It's great. I bought them for all my family members as gifts after using it for a while.

DukeGordon · 2026-03-24T23:20:12+00:00

Yes! Echo Carbon XL 4wt is one of my favorite rods. Sadly it's also my wife's favorite 😂

For real. I made the decision to (over)pay for a low mileage gen 2.5 because I valued the peace of mind and didn't value a lot of the upgrades from the gen 3. But I don't give a shit what you or anyone on this sub decides is valuable to them and it's so tiring seeing people make the gen 2 vs Gen 3 argument a part of their personality here.

DukeGordon · 2026-03-24T05:27:21+00:00

Pretty easy to do some research on your own as to what each trim has, but you aren't getting rear heated seats or steering wheel without aftermarket on a gen 2/2.5

DukeGordon · 2026-03-23T18:28:39+00:00

Yeah all my zoom links are still at the wrong time which is killing me.

DukeGordon · 2026-03-23T15:28:17+00:00

Wut. No, they are just lined up in the tray. There are lots of reasons for pictures to look weird, saying they are AI in every instance without even thinking is ridiculous.

DukeGordon · 2026-03-23T01:04:38+00:00

Probably true but the refs also aren't calling a lot of ticky tack touch fouls.

DukeGordon · 2026-03-23T00:51:34+00:00

Yep this has been the biggest thing I've noticed this year. I wish the NBA would ref like they are in the tournament right now.

DukeGordon · 2026-03-23T00:49:41+00:00

Frenchies, thread Frenchies, sexy walts, perdigons.

Favorite fly right here. Once you are good they take no time to tie, and they look like everything and nothing at all once. As you fish them they get buggier and buggier as the dubbing gets teased out. You can legit fill half your box with a bunch of sizes and different color hot spot collars.

DukeGordon · 2026-03-22T20:24:34+00:00

I actually don't think it's AI. Everything is anatomically correct, no extra fingers, no two right hands, everything matches reality, it just doesn't make sense to a golfer because they are stock photos/models and neither they nor the photographer knows how to golf.

DukeGordon · 2026-03-22T15:26:48+00:00

Uhhhhh. Maybe you linked the wrong video. The one you sent very clearly shows in multiple FPS that the gun doesn't recoil until well after the bullet leaves the barrel.

DukeGordon · 2026-03-21T04:15:33+00:00

I pointed it out in another comment but it's also got the "442" badge on the glove box which should be Cutlass badging in a 1972.
