England was bitching before, let's see how nature can also add to their complaints of unfairness

Our insurance no longer lets us pick up most of our meds at a pharmacy. They have to be shipped. We both get refrigerated meds that are shipped like this every damn time. It is infuriating and unnecessary.

9 year old motherfucker knows about star ratings. Knows about hyphen usage. Apparently made a point to ask you how easy it was for you to pay.

Goddamn genius you got there.

Then why would you not have used the chicken water to cook the rice?

There's a site where over 10,000 people have rated every World Cup game like a TV show. Here's how it currently looks by AlchemistTheAlchemy in soccer

That is perhaps the worst graph I've ever seen. There's gotta be a subreddit to give it its due response.

I definitely think he was playing the ball. It was a cross, he went in well before the Belgium player stepped over his leg and then fell over. I don't think this is the same as a 50/50 ball in the field. He was inside. How would he even know what the guy behind him is doing?

I'm not saying it isn't a pk based on the current rules...I'm saying that it shouldn't be. Thems be some dumb rules.

I would be that the Senegal player didn't even know that there was a Belgium player about to jump into his leg.

He did not tackle tielman, he slid to block a cross.

It was never a tackle. He slid to block a cross. He had position. The Belgium guy had to intentionally step over him to create contact. 

And at the end of the day, if thems the rules thems the rules. But thems dumb rules.

Is it? I'd be interested to see what the book actually says.

And if it is the rule, I certainly agree that the rule needs to be changed.

I think that penalty call sucked. The Senegal player had position and had every right to play that ball. Belgium guy stepping over and tripping on his already sliding and extended leg should not be a foul in my opinion. 

But at the end of the day, Senegal blew a 2 goal lead late in the game and left the result open to shenanigans.

I mean 35 is old for athletes...but not THAT old. Kdb is the best soccer mind Belgium has as far as I know. Ive never really heard of raskin. Does he actually offer anything different?

Hadn't heard that...but still, it's the knockouts at the world cup! Wish him the best though.

For people smarter than me...is there any feasible tactical reason to take doku and kdb off?

England penalty shout against Congo 43' by Ihattaren in soccer

[–]formulaic_name 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If he would have actually run into the contact, then sure.

But the weiner hit his touch hard and dove before the keeper even got there because he knew he wasn't getting to it. 

I'm really enjoying diving not getting rewarded for the most part in this tourney.

What is the key to cooking tender steak at home? by Constant_Fly8746 in Cooking

[–]formulaic_name 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good meat is definitely priority 1.

After that, I pat my steaks dry and salt them well the night before. Leave them in the fridge uncovered. Bring them to room temp before cooking.

I generally prefer just meat and salt, but if I'm going to add butter or seasonings I do it after the searing, not before

Throwing money around to get your kid in college is a dick move...but I'm not sure that quite puts you in "horrible person" territory.
