BRJ's "No Compromise" thread made me thimk.

[Okla-homey]

Other things which no compromise is acceptable.

The "store brand" (or "Hydrox") in lieu of authentic Oreos

what are others?

[C&CDean]

Methadone in lieu of heroin.

[dolemitesooner]

Hydrox are good Dioopd in M.....sOP ABW qUIET

[jk the sooner fan]

"cheerio's" (or any cereal) in a bag......

[royalfan5]

Dr. Pepper vs. the various Dr./Mr. Whatevers of the world.

[8timechamps]

Any boxed Mac & Cheese other than Kraft.

[colleyvillesooner]

Any boxed Mac & Cheese other than Kraft.

**** YEAH!

[skycat]

Dr. Pepper vs. the various Dr./Mr. Whatevers of the world.

Mr. Pib > Dr. Pepper

[dolemitesooner]

Mr. Pib > Dr. Pepper
This is true....you said no Dr. can replace the Dr. But can a Mr. replace a Dr. I think so

[jk the sooner fan]

Mr. Pib > Dr. Pepper

99% of the store-brand products are every bit as good as the name brands. And probably made on the same production line.

Yesterday, I bought 200-count Wal-Hell ibuprofen for $4.85. 100-count Advil was nearly 9 bucks. :eek:

[Sooner Born Sooner Bred]

Kleenex is no substitute for Puffs.

[BigRedJed]

Ipod > any other MP3 player

[Big Red Ron]

Mercedes over Chrysler 300

[BigRedJed]

Grey Goose (and a select few premium vodkas) > no-name vodkas or poseur vodkas like Absolut, Skyy...

[BigRedJed]

Quality beer, no matter what your particular preference > discount beer

LIFE IS TOO SHORT.

[BigRedJed]

Great steakhouse > chain steakhouse

Life's too short for Outback.

[Big Red Ron]

Fresh squeezed OJ vs. Concentrate.

[BigRedJed]

Milkfat. There are other places to cut back. Skim milk is teh suck.

[Big Red Ron]

OKC > Tulsa



















:D

[BigRedJed]

LIFE'S TOO SHORT TO LIVE IN TULSA! ;)

[Big Red Ron]

Milk > Silk

[crawfish]

Ipod > any other MP3 player

Pffft.

Unless by ">", you mean "more expensive".

The SanDisk players rock at a fraction of the price.

[BigRedJed]

See, "fraction of the price" shouldn't be a consideration here. We're talking about superior products, screw the pricepoint. Of ALL things, you should never compromise on the rock music.

[BlondeSoonerGirl]

Milkfat. There are other places to cut back. Skim milk is teh suck.

Cheese, too. Low/non-fat cheese is really, really bad.

Veddy bad, even.

[BlondeSoonerGirl]

Bath towels and bed linens. Never, ever skimp on these two things. Ever.

Gah.

[BigRedJed]

Jeebus, Craw, we need to get you off of those SanDisk players, and fast. I went out and checked them out based on your post. As far as I can tell, the biggest one you can get is 8GB! Heck, that's not even half the space that yermom has on his wee, obsolete iPod. All of those 8 GB units seem to run around $249, or $31 per GB. My 80GB iPod was $349, or $4.36 per GB. I fail to see how the SanDisk can even be called cheaper than the iPod. Hell, you can get a 30 GB iPod for $249. Don't even get me started on iTunes vs. Rhaphsody, which is something I have actually sampled.

Don't compromise on the rock, man. If we need an intervention, we're there for you.

[Viking Kitten]

I don't compromise on shampoo/conditioner or face care/cosmetic-type stuff. I don't put crap on my face. Or my finger. Like Jed does, apparently.

[BigRedJed]

Hey, I don't compromise on my toilet paper. Let's be clear here. The building I work in does, however.

[Czar Soonerov]

Rough Riders > Trojans

[BigRedJed]

You know, Rough Riders and Trojans feel about the same from the man's point of view. Or at least the man that is wearing them. But maybe you were referring to something else.

[jk the sooner fan]

i miss real milk.....i have to buy the lactaid stuff

Mmmmm, ribs....

I'm merely speculating based on the handful of Rough Riders you came out of the bathroom with.

:twinkies:

Great steakhouse > chain steakhouse

Life's too short for Outback.

Are you including Del Frisco, Ruth's Chris, and Sullivan's as chain steakhouses? Because those guys are good.

[tbl]

Gah.
EVER.

I would argue that most bagged cereals are just as good sa the boxed, and some are better. I agree that the HN Cheerio's aren't as good as the original, but most others are.

[NormanPride]

Grey Goose (and a select few premium vodkas) > no-name vodkas or poseur vodkas like Absolut, Skyy...

McCheapo's Vodka + Water Filter = Grey Goose. :D

100% Egyptian cotton shirts > any polyester blended shirt.

high thread count sheets > blended, low thread count sheets

while this may be true, part of that 1% is Oreos

Del Frisco > Ruth Chris > Sullivans.

Have never really like Sullivans that much. Too bland.

Ruth Chris is a bit buttery for my taste.

Del Frisco on the other hand.. especially when they have kobe steaks in...

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

[soonerboomer93]

Any boxed Mac & Cheese other than Kraft.

Had me some Kraft Mac & Cheese yesterday


hooray for 500lb deployment shipments

[BigRedJed]

Cheap socks. That's some bull****.

[soonerboomer93]

cheap shoes and cheap jeans are the suck

[yermom]

oh yeah

although, i am kinda liking the Starburys

[DustySooner]

Never compromise the whiskey. Cheap whiskey is not acceptable.

Heh. You know that Del Frisco, Sullivan's, and Lone Star are all the same company, right? ;) Of course, they use different grades of beef and recipes.

Never been to a Ruth's Chris. I don't find Sullivan's to be bland, but it is a bit more subtle than I was used to at first. They actually don't do much to the steaks-they just tenderize and throw some salt, pepper, and garlic on them. The cuts are phenominal, though. Can't get prime anywhere else in town.

Kobe beef is freaking nuts. Had Kobe meatloaf the other day and it was ridiculous.

[GottaHavePride]

if it's a good cut, you shouldn't need to do much to it
