    What food should I eat when I go to Chicago?

    Giordano's for deep dish pizza. Some of the best breakfast food is found at one of three Nookie's (Nookie's, Nookie's Too and Nookie's Tree). The Giordano's and Nookie's Tree can be located in the Lakeview neighborhood close by Wrigley Field (Giordano's is about three blocks east of Halsted on...

    Snickers pulls Superbowl Ad campaign

    Agreed. It was funny, and definitely not homophobic.

    Snickers pulls Superbowl Ad campaign

    I completely agree. There was no violence in the add at all. I certainly did not interpret it as an add condoning violence against anything (expect perhaps chest hair). Be careful when using all-encompassing remarks like "how the gays turn it into..." I certainly am gay and am not turning...

    Ok, take your post and replace every instance of the word gay with the word ASIAN, and every instance of the word heterosexual with the word WHITE. See what I mean now?

    Snickers pulls Superbowl Ad campaign

    Go back several pages and re-read my second post in this thread. I did consider the intent of the ad was not to attack gay people, and in fact actually believe it to be a stab at homophobia at this point. I am no longer taking issue with the commercial, only with the additional comments I have...

    I don't think I misinterpreted what he meant. He was pretty clear about it. Re-read his post.

    Snickers pulls Superbowl Ad campaign

    The first term is highly offensive. If you had a friend or relative that you spoke with, would you openly refer to them as a "homo" to their face? If no, why not? It is like using the "N" word when speaking with an African American. The second term is out dated and clinical in nature...

    Snickers pulls Superbowl Ad campaign

    I react like this when confronted with someone that has the mentality of "you are in the minority, therefore have no right to defend yourself." To that, I do not think there can be a overreaction...discounting physical violence of course. His chain of reasoning is dysfunctional, and...

    Snickers pulls Superbowl Ad campaign

    Using the term "homos" is derogatory to ALL gay people. What is your definition of a "homo" vs. a gay person? Is the "homo" the one that will stand up, question, and take to task those that discriminate and the gay person the one that is quiet, doesn't get "uppity", and generally pretends to...

    Snickers pulls Superbowl Ad campaign

    I love how you conveniently ignored my later statement that I found how it could be viewed as a stab at homophobia. Just because your initial interpretation was different than someone else's does not make your interpretation (or any one else's) correct. None of us truly knows what the intent...

    Snickers pulls Superbowl Ad campaign

    Hmmm. "I don't see what the problem is. That is a pretty typical male reaction to homosexuality." So, a reaction because it is "typical" is OK? and... "The homosexuals are the minority here and have no real business getting up in arms about something like that...." So, tyranny...

    "and if you even begin to think that it does, take the broomstick out of your ass...." Wow. You are definitely in need of taking the broomstick out of YOUR ass I think. Or, let me help....:D

    Galil=cool! Nice weapon. Expensive, too. The AR's are much less expensive nowadays, but are not based upon the AK system like the Galil which does detract from reliability a little bit. My AR's are more accurate though! :)

    *5th* helicopter shot down in *3* weeks!

    Umm, you are not up to date on the latest shoulder fired SAM systems are you? Stingers=old news. SA-7s also are old news, comparable to the old Red Eye system. If someone has been selling SA-18s, then our aircraft are in real trouble as the SA-18 is more destructive, and arguably more...

    Oh, to be fair, my heterosexual friend may have also been anticipating my thoughts on the subject and said he thought it was homophobic just to keep the peace with me. I can be a real bitch to deal with.

    Taking into account the "type" of male that I am attracted to, I could not agree more!

    Snickers pulls Superbowl Ad campaign

    I had not considered that point of view. Indeed, it could be interpreted that way as well. Two guys who feel the need to do something "manly" because of an innocent unintended kiss. That would be pointing fun at homophobia, not gay people. Hmm.

    Snickers pulls Superbowl Ad campaign

    I guess being the first gay male to weigh in on this here, I thought the commercial was overtly homophobic. The reaction of the two men indicated to me: 1. It is to objectionable for two *guys* to accidentally kiss--not to be confused with the concept that it would be generally...

    Rev. Ted Haggard has "recovered" from being teh gay

    As a gay male, I cannot help but comment.... 1. The bastard is disrespecting all gay people (along with others of any sexuality who have a rational thought process) by claiming to be "cured" for something that cannot and should not be "cured." Using the word "cured" is hateful in it's own...

    WOuld you use onboard audio?

    I have the motherboard in question, and the on board audio implementation SUCKS. I believe it is a hardware issue with the ADI 1988 codec not properly shielded. ASUS made a great move with the codec, as it is better than any Realtek one, but the implementation is just not there and that is...

    (new) Seagate 320GB 7200.10 DMA problems

    Possible compatibility issue with the ECS motherboard or even a defective motherboard. The tell-tale sign is the fact a complete XP reinstall did not work and the drive works at UDMA5 in another system.... Is it the only HDD in the system? Only SATA device?

    Opinions on mobo/ram combo

    Films that changed your life

    Three movies: 1. Schindler's List (brought to light, in the most realistic way possible, the absolute horror of the Holocaust) 2. Deer Hunter (made it clear that Viet Nam was a fvcked up hell hole) 3. Brokeback Mountain (made a statement regarding the plight of GLBT people then AND now)

    3 cops shot by 92 year old woman

    Nice troll attempt! 1. The whole incident is unfortunate. 2. Granny HAD EVERY RIGHT to open fire. No drugs in house. Law-abiding citizen defending herself. 3. The cops HAD EVERY RIGHT to return fire. They were defending their lives. They are still guilty of criminal acts, however...

    3 cops shot by 92 year old woman

    Nice attack. Why? I am just outlining that no knock search warrants are very dangerous for everyone involved. Obviously, very dangerous in this case for the cops that were injured and the old woman who is dead. Were the cops shooting in self defense justifed resulting in her death? No--not...

    3 cops shot by 92 year old woman

    I am one of those "2nd Amendment knuckle draggers" you are talking about and I don't think it was a good shoot. I am a Life Member of the NRA, love my military style rifles, and happen to be gay too!!! The vast majority of the progun people I know that have heard about this situation feel...

    3 cops shot by 92 year old woman

    I am impressed that granny managed to hit all three officers as effectively as she did. One would definitely be dead if not for the soft body armor he was wearing. Obviously, she was not expecting soft body armor on the assailants (in this case said assailants being cops). Now, had this...

    Student shot with Taser by UCPD officers (Multiple times)

    VERY VERY bad idea. You are a fool, and a dangerous one. Had the cops started using force on other students it would have escalated into a full-scale riot. Cops and students would have most likely DIED. All I can say is that if the cops started tasering students randomly coming up I would...

    Co-Signing on a car

    I work for Ford Credit. If you co-sign for someone, you co-guarantee the note. That means that you and the Buyer are both equally responsible for the payment, and the credit history on the account is reported equally on both your credit report and the Buyer's. Give this some real...

    I saw the sunrise this morning.

    I was trying to come up with something poetic but just could not. I am actively fighting back tears right now. :( This truly brings home just how quickly it can be over, so make sure you let your family know how much you love them as often as possible. I don't believe I have ever seen a...

    What's AMD's equivalent to Intel's Core + Core duo?

    If you want the best bang for the buck CPU out there, the E6600 cannot be touched. It is on par, or beats in some cases, the FX-62. Go E6700 or E6800 and at STOCK speeds you beat anything AMD has out currently. I am talking stock speeds here, not taking into account what can be done with...

    P5B-E/Core 2 E6600/Corsair XMS PC2 6400 Orthos Failure

    Well, I can tell you that I am using Corsair XMS2 6400C4 and the memory is designed to run at 2.1v. I would guess you need to bump up voltage to 2.0v or 2.1v. I have the exact same mobo with latest BIOS and an E6700. I am Orthos stable for 24hrs.

    Choosing Conroe memory: PC533 CL4 or PC667/800 CL5 best?!

    From my understanding, Conroe is more sensitive to frequency than latency (this behavior being *somewhat* reverse of the K8 architecture). You would be better off with DDR2-800 at CL5 than with DDR2-667 at CL4, according to benchmarks.

    Intel Core Duo -- MS Dual core hotfix needed?

    Actually, just Google the Microsoft KB number and watch how many places pop up that you can download it from. The AMD Dual Core Optimizer was released by AMD to bring the Hotfix to the masses. I got the actual MS Hotfix directly from the ASUS website for the Z62F notebook. I have a Z62F...

    Intel Core Duo -- MS Dual core hotfix needed?

    Precisely. Which brings up another point...not everyone had or has issues and this MS Hotfix does not necessarily benefit everyone. The thing I am trying to gauge is if doing the above actually detracts from performance on a Core Duo or Core 2 Duo system. Coming from the AMD side, I can say...

    I just did a thorough read of that thread and I gather the following: [For Intel based systems such as P4 w/HT, Pentium D, Core Duo, Core 2 Duo] 1. In order for any of the registry keys to be valid you MUST install the MS Hotfix. The registry key Throttle is meaningless w/o the Hotfix...

    Intel Core Duo -- MS Dual core hotfix needed?

    I am purchasing a Core Duo (not Core 2 Duo) notebook and need to know if the MS dual core hotfix is required or not. I am coming from the AMD world, where it was pretty standard to use the hotfix along with the processor driver (now the processor driver and the "AMD dual core optimizer") but am...
