Fun facts about McDonalds

Sausage & Egg McGriddle is the best breakfast. Coffee, Fruit & Maple Oatmeal are good. McDouble = 25g protein for $1 McChicken = use to make McGangbangs (stick a McChicken between the patties of a McDouble), also $1 20-pc nuggets = 44g protein for $5 Fries are surprisingly decent McDonalds...

Time to SUIT UP!

Gonna 2nd (or 3rd, or 4th, or whatever) Indochino. That price is practically a steal for a tailored suit. They also throw in a $75 tailoring credit, and if it requires more tailoring than that they'll remake the suit until they get it right. Great fit for me... requested minimal shoulder...

Financial advice for a young whippersnapper?

Valid. Removed surname, not really that worried though. Moved the small & mid-cap investments into the target retirement fund, and have a 75/25 split (target, S&P500) now. I'll report back with what the financial advisor says, and try not to get talked into actually doing anything :P...

Financial advice for a young whippersnapper?

Actually, a lot of people are mentioning the "quality" of 401k offerings. I'm rather unsure what this means... I have my 401k portfolio/options open right now, what should I be looking at? What is "ER"?

Is Citizen a good brand for watches?

Citizen is okay. As they're all quartz (as far as I know), they won't really impress watch nerds unless you go for their flashier "complications" (Specifically, I'm thinking of the Campanola line). For your budget, here are two automatics I'd recommend: Orient Mako (blue): Classy, dive-watch...

Best burger review ever. 5 Guys. This is how bacon is supposed to be!

IMO, Five Guys > In n' Out... But it's important to note that In n' Out is competing with McDonalds & the like (much lower price point), and at that level/weight-class it destroys the competition.

Discreetly Paying the Bill

When you're trying to discreetly pay the bill for your table (more of an Asian thing maybe), or order a birthday slice of cake/cupcake etc., how do you go about it? Do you tell the person up-front as you're checking in, or try to find the waiter/waitress after you've all been seated?

Yes. Amazing for low carb diets. There's plenty of food... just replace rice with extra serving of fajita veggies, and guac. IIRC people on paleo love Chipotle for a quick fix.

Strange problem with desktop I just built

Okay - All drives unplugged. Motherboard is sitting outside of case with just PSU and case wires (power button, etc.) plugged in. 1 RAM = same issue, cycles on and off. No RAM = same thing, stays on (but obviously nothing happens). Edit: Uh... tried to take heatsink off to check the CPU but...

Just built new rig, turned it on ... and it just keeps turning on and off repeatedly. No POST, nothing on the screen, etc. Fans spin up for a few seconds, turns off. Turns back on, repeat. I removed one RAM stick and it does the same thing. Removed both and the system actually stays on...

The ASRock motherboard in my OP actually went out of stock, but I found this one (which does support DDR3-1600): http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16813157311 Seems pretty new (no reviews yet).

[Build Advice] - Mini-ITX Gaming Rig

Doh, just noticed the motherboard doesn't support DDR3-1600. Guess I'm knocking that down to 1066. Also, I think I will actually go with the Strider Pro & the short cables... make things a little easier for myself and hopefully help with air flow.

[Build Advice] - Mini-ITX Gaming Rig

Worried about the size of the PSU (the one you linked is even bigger). I've actually been going back and forth on the PSU thing all day... Ideally, it'd be something like this paired with these, but despite the 5-star reviews there seem to be a lot of review complaints about noise on that one.
