Music snob.

I think country and rap are total shit. Even some pop music. But, for the most part I think country and rap should just away - forever.

Grill snob.

I feel sorry for everyone that "has" to use propane or charcoal. There are times when I use charcoal, but its when I cook only a couple of steaks, or a couple of pieces of chicken.

Excuse me but aside from charcoal and propane, what else do you have as choices to grill with?

General electronics, especially computers. I don't have to have the best of the best, but I find myself turning my nose up at a low-end (but perfectly functional) Acer laptop, for example, just because I know the build quality / screen panel / etc. are of lower quality compared to something more expensive.

Pizza.
1080p.
High bit rate audio.
Intel > AMD.

Wouldn't say I'm a snob, as I don't usually care enough to debate anything I really like. But I'm pretty picky when it comes to certain things.

The only thing I am a "snob" about are my laptops.
I have no use for anything other than old HP/Compaq nc6000s.

This is my grill, see the stack of wood next to it? Truck is for scale.

Cooking surface is 6 feet 9 inches long and 29 inches across. The smoker has 2 - 24 inch trays. There is also a sliding tray in the left door of the main pit. The sliding tray holds a whole 10 pound bag of chicken quarters, or 3 slabs of baby back ribs.

I thought about building a bigger pit with a cooking surface close to 13 feet long. but I dont know if its worth the time and effort. This small pit does a good job.

Before I was married I used to spend a lot on clothes, specifically jeans, but these days I'm not snobbish on much. I guess if anything I'd have to say my PC and the parts therein...

Gaming: PC > consoles (based on my experience)
Food: I feel bad for all who think Indian food that is served in restaurants is good.

I have been to many restaurants in 8-9 cities in the US.. and never found one that is good.

I was going to say this, but honestly as long as it's a non-flavored dark roast, I'm pretty happy. Doesn't have to be a certain brand or made on any specific equipment.

The Honda dealership I go to has THE worst coffee.. it stinks and it is the weakest crap I've ever tasted. It's as if they run 10 cups of water through 0.25oz of grounds.

Two things: ice cream and apple cider.

Dave

Oh! I forgot about Ice Cream!
I much prefer the Wal-Mart store brand of Butter Pecan.
Wife always buys me Breyers, but I like the cheap stuff better.
She can't understand why, it's simple: cheaper, smoother & has more flavor.

Good thing I am getting two shiny new crowns on Thursday; I would not want to be looked down upon. :D


I guess I'm kind of a movie snob, though I hate to say that as I like a lot of stupid movies too. I don't know, that's all I could really think of. :hmm:
