[quote]Do you think your dad is going to take it hard when you tell him you're gay[/quote]
Having the ability to distinguish between chics you care about as friends and chics you want to date and sleep with is not being gay, it's being mature. Maybe you practice the "sleeping with your sister" ta...

re: Harry Potter and Hermione Granger

I have a best friend who I've known since childhood, and she's attractive. At one point towards the middle of high school, I thought I had feelings for her, but I was never turned on sexually by her. When my friend talks to me about guys she's slept with, I get the same nauseating feeling as I do wh...
re: HDTV noob questions
Posted by JonathanB on 1/4/11 at 1:53 pm
The refresh rate is something to get used to. Also, the set-up may be the problem. You went up significantly in size and if you have the TV in the same spot, you may need to move seating back a little to adjust. Any fluorescent lights can also cause headaches and such when watching HDTV. So try not ...

Thanks for the info. My girlfriend loves cupcakes, might have to swing by and get her some. Saw it while shopping at Apple recently, but it seemed pretty plain from the outside, as if it were unfinished, but it said "Now Open."...

I also will be at the midnight premiere. And back there again Friday at 7pm. Probably the 2 busiest times of release. Already preordered tickets to both.
Also, was reading some more reviews from early viewings and a couple said the theater broke out in applause when Dobby came on screen. So his ...

Yeah, Azkaban was the last movie they got right, IMO. It's a shame, too because the books got pretty awesome with GOF onward. (Not that the first 3 weren't brillia...
re: Let's talk about Harry Potter
Posted by JonathanB on 11/11/10 at 10:28 am
I was reading online about a guy who got to view it early. He didn't give much away, but he did say that splitting the book in to two movies is the best decision ever made. He said it's like watching the book on screen. Which is exactly what I was hoping for.
I have high hopes for the movie. Rer...

Posted by JonathanB on 11/10/10 at 11:22 pm
I'm an IT guy - the only competent one for a pretty big company. I wanted to finish my degree at LSU so I told them I was cutting back hours. They offered me a $28,000/year increase to stay full-time. Hopefully getting a degree in software engineering will outweigh that loss. It was tough, though. E...

I have a Samsung BD C6500. The Netflix video streaming quality, and blu-ray feedback in general, is the best I've seen. It's quicker than the previous Samsungs, too. I bought mine for about $200-$250....

Place a disc in slot, then hold the eject button down for 10 seconds. You'll hear it making noise to know it worked. Then release. It should take in your disc. Hopefully it plays, if not...

re: gave 5 Guys burgers a try yesterday
Posted by JonathanB on 11/1/10 at 11:52 am
It's really just about supporting a well produced business. The burgers, fries, everything are made with fresh ingredients (real fresh ingredients, not the kind Subway claims to use). They also spend no money on advertisement and put that money toward paying their employees more. And in comparison t...

re: Tailgating/Dining in Auburn
Posted by JonathanB on 10/18/10 at 11:45 am
Brick Oven Pizza near campus had great pizza.
We stayed about 30 minutes past Auburn in Georgia. Good room, rate, and easy drive to campus.
The tailgating was low key (compared to BR) and the fans weren't as bad as expected. There's a sort of "pit" where the students tailgate and they were p...
re: Observations from the swamp
Posted by JonathanB on 10/10/10 at 11:07 pm
Yeah, pretty good assessment. Except UF is a really nice campus. I guess I'm gonna have to go back for the "traditional" experience. The fans were fun. Just the right amount of smack talk. Even had drinks with a few at The Swamp after the game and no problems. They were saying "good game" and all. O...
