So is law school worth it or not?
I think you misunderstand me. I think that there are tiers of law schools, albeit not in the strict order that US News has them. I never heard that CCN were formally regarded as being in a class apart just after the holy trinity, although they certainly were very well respected and likely viewed...- aybojs

So is law school worth it or not?
too many people go to law school thinking it's a way of avoiding paying your dues and going automatically to the big time by spending an extra couple years in school. This needs to be emphasized in every law school thread. I can't count how many friends and acquaintances I've watched fail or...- aybojs

Food, Sights, Nightlife in Houston?
Ok, let me work with those: Mexican: The big thing is to decide whether you're looking for Tex-Mex (e.g. chile con queso, fajitas, enchiladas in red sauce with cheddar cheese) or actual Mexican (mole, tacos that don't use lettuce, cheddar and tomatos, soup/caldo). If it's Tex-Mex, there are a...- aybojs

Food, Sights, Nightlife in Houston?
The Aquarium and the Kemah boardwalk are Landry's owned tourist traps; avoid like the plague. The thing to realize with the Houston dining scene is that the fancy/trendy places just aren't all that impressive or interesting, and that the real good food is to be found at the myriad hole in the...- aybojs

I don't get Corona
the origin is that mexicans put lemon on/in everything; beer, meat, sauce, cereal, cheese, everything. we use lemon 10x a day. it tastes good. Huh? I can see that with limes, but lemons? I've worked with more than my share of Mexican immigrants (restaurant biz), but have met numerous ones who...- aybojs

Tips in the 21st century
Yeah, it seems like if you don't give 15% to wait staff, they get angry, thinking it's a right they get it. I usually will give 15-20% if the service is outstanding. If the service sucks, I don't leave anything. Well, it has pretty much developed into a nationally understood social contract...- aybojs

The Cocktail Thread
Aybojs, have you been to Beaver's in Houston? They just opened and are the best cocktail bar in town. Yep, went there a few weeks ago, and it turns out I knew the bar manager there. It's a nice place, and I hope the cocktail scene there doesn't get overshadowed by the restaurant's hype, which...- aybojs

Uh, hate to break to you "dude" but you do come off as a dick. I've lurked here for some time and most of your posts come off as aggressive and douchebaggy despite all your potshots at people you deem pretentious or douchey. You seem to have this big need to act "real" and call out all the...- aybojs

The Cocktail Thread
Heck, the little Irish pub I sat in when I was five had both creme de menthe and white creme de cacao. They were Jacquin's but hey. I live in the country and there's no way I go to a corner bar and order a Manhattan, there's no way I go to the corner bar and order a JW Red Label. BUt the...- aybojs

The Cocktail Thread
to me, going to just any bar and ordering a grasshopper or a Rob Roy and then sending it back because its not made well is like going to Denny's to get a good steak then sending it back because what you got is not NY Prime sirloin.

The Cocktail Thread
dmax, anything written by drinkboy (robert hess) is definatly worth reading or trying. He is a truly passionate bartender. I would also recommend either The Joy of Mixology by Gary Regan (try his orange bitters also) or The Craft of the Cocktail by Dale DeGroff. I was lucky enough to have the...- aybojs

What country makes the best beer?
You are probably right - I just find it distracting though; the rest of the beer's notes and flavours get drowned out by that avalanche of hops. This is pretty much my grievance with American microbrewers, to the point that I find it comes close to cancelling out the amazing versatility that so...- aybojs

The Soup Man
I remember checking it out when his chain opened a store up in Princeton about two years ago. The soups were all right, tasty, but not spectacular, but were horrifically overpriced: $6-10 for a tiny cup of soup that wouldn't even come close to filling you up. As much as the guy claims he hates...- aybojs

Source for Belgian beer glasses?
Well the one at the bottom is the elusive Chimay mini-goblet. Good luck finding that one. Now, my local CostPlus has had large glass goblets recently. There is also a place online that has some (which I had bought a while ago). http://www.beerglasshopper.bigstep.c...l?PRID=1369243 That one (that...- aybojs

Why people go to Steak Houses?
What corporations have done with American tastes is deplorable. Given the source, I knew it wouldn't take too long to find the usual "whining about corporate America" root at the base of yet another shrill rant.- aybojs

Lemon Drop
Dear bar customer, If you are a high maintainance douchebag and want to instantly piss off any bartender you come into contact with, please order a lemon drop shot or martini during any busy, high-volume night at the bar. Bonus points if you order a large round think leaving 15% or a few bucks...- aybojs

Post comedians you don't think are funny or just don't get
I absolutely despise Stephen Colbert and all his annoying internet groupies, so I was glad to see him get mentioned here. I also can't stand Tina Fey; her and Jimmy Fallon's stint on Weekend Update was an all time low for the show.- aybojs

Help buying a smart phone
I'd tend to look outside of Verizon when looking for a phone with the intent of using any sort of special features; Verizon's MO is basically to cripple and disable many of the advertised features of its phones with the intent of forcing you to pay extra and go through their expensive services...- aybojs
