    Yeah. In my experience there should be an earlier elimination round.

    You aren't approaching it cynically enough. Open a can of Hormel Chili, put it in your own crockpot and sit back and laugh at how many awards it gets in office competitions.

    Not a bad idea.

    It's happened in my office. It's been a couple of years though. It wasn't me, but I was on the inside of the joke.

    Almost all terrible. I voted for a nice vegetarian chili with pleasing heat.

    My chili skepticism goes up 1% per 5 miles north of the southern states.

    1st place was a tolerable white chili, no heat to speak of.
    2nd place was what I rated second as well. Mild heat. Fucking Minnesotans talking about it like it was the hottest thing they've ever eaten.

    I don't eat chili without a bottle of Cholula on standby

    We have a chili cookoff at work tomorrow. The curry chili always wins. I'm not really a fan. Maybe I'll hack the voting app again...

Originally shared by Curt Thompson This is an interesting theory, but I notice the author has to omit one of the most important Heinlein novels to make it work. Time Enough For Love was written in the very early 70s and was a straight (heh) extrapolation of the chaotic and frenetic zeitgeist of that era. http://www.locusmag.com/Perspectives/2012/11/the-joke-is-on-us-the-two-careers-of-robert-a-heinlein/

Hit Me with your Horror

Originally shared by Andrew “Incomitatum” Chason Hit Me with your Horror I am looking for some horror flicks. The newer the better. Good is good too. I liked House of 1000 Corpses and Devil's Rejects . I liked both the new Texas Chainsaw movies. Hills Have Eyes 1 was good (never saw the second . Jeepers Creepers 1 & 2 come to mind as well. A little camp, and/or "back woods" can't hurt. Any of you have any recommendations? Lets try and not go too far back than mid 90's. Aside: How was the new "Freddy" movie? Suggested So Far • Bones (2001) • Drag Me to Hell (2009) • The Grudge (2004) • Don't Be Afraid of the Dark (2010) • Dog Soldiers (2002) • The Decent (2005) • Creature (2011) • The Last Winter (2006)
