what is truly apalling is the resistance of the dining public in the area- wine snobs and fois gras foodies turning up their noses as if eating off of paper plates is offensive and will ruin the quality of their meal. I get that cutting into osso bucco with a plastic knife might be a challenge and drinking their $95…

If you’re not aware that clean, fresh water is a shrinking resource, then you need to do some research.

How is this not badass?

First Arsenal’s hat, now this. DC, what is your fascination with truckers?
