Fuck all of this and the Wall Street shitbags that are always profiting off of it.

That’s how my mom almost always made biscuits, too. She said she liked the extra crispy bits where it peaked, but I’m pretty sure the primary motivation was simplicity and efficiency.

Interesting. My incredulity here can probably be attributed to the fact I’ve never been any good at pinching regular bread rolls, which are a much firmer and more manageable dough to start with. I’ll concede that you command by birthright a mastery of the biscuit-making craft the likes of which I’ll never possess.

You mean pinched the way one would a roll? I can’t picture how this would work. Isn’t biscuit dough too wet for this? I’m familiar with drop biscuits as a lazy method that also yields less waste (assuming one is traditionally “wasting” the scrap), but I don’t think this is what you’re talking about either.

It seems to me the logical move would be to say that if a flight from A to B costs $X, and a flight from A to C requires a layover at B, then it must cost $X + $Y, where $Y is any number inclusive of $0, but the sum will never be lower than $X.

It makes sense except for the part where you believe the higher prices are there to control availability for people that “need to book.” For one, assume anyone who is booking has some need to do so. But crucially, the price bump is because they want to make more money, and see the opportunity to do so based on high…

Yeah, I feel kind of bad for assuming initially, but there have just been so many disappointing revelations about former icons that turned out to be true, or even worse than initially reported. But also, I wasn’t really following the story at that time, and as a general rule I try not to cast any assumption or opinion…

It’s unfortunate that many unsavory people are counting Depp’s win as one for their own cause. Kyle Rittenhouse, in particular, disgusts me. But you shouldn’t automatically lump Johnny Depp in with them. Kind of like how Rick and Morty is a good show with a lot of terrible fans.

It’s not in the original screenplay, so it could have been improvised by Neill, but also could’ve been added by the director, an AD, producer, writer David Koepp via an in-production re-write, or any number of other creative contributors.

To build on your opening suggestion favoring independent theaters, I’d like to suggest that you should avail yourself of any local science centers and museums that may feature an IMAX Theater.

Both of my only two colleagues routinely and exclusively say “nucular” and it’s slowly driving me mad.

Since it seems like you’d probably care about this sort of thing, I’ve got to mention: You want a plural verb here (“are” instead of “is”), because, although your first subject is singular, you’ve got a second subject connected by “and.”

Yeah, there are a lot of factors. If dust is reaching your dishes in a closed cabinet, you probably have positive air pressure in your home, and you may want to have that looked into. In addition to causing energy waste when heating and cooling your house, that pressure can also push moisture into your walls and cause…

Yeah, maybe don’t store the dishes you eat off of in the open air to collect dust. I spent a year in a rental home selected hastily after a tornado, and the landlord had removed all the cabinet doors because it was an old house and they had been repainted so many times they couldn’t close anymore. I think he thought…

Thanks! I may have found a solution to your problem, by the way:

LOL, yeah, I have no doubt. Mostly just wanted to riff on the sentence format joke while also taking another outlet to vent about the fact I ordered the thing in August and still don’t have it, but like you said, you know all about that.

That’s a good point; thank you. I think you could say it’s all a gray area for Google, in the sense that their liability for any of this, even for explicitly illegal recordings, is entirely theoretical, as I don’t think anyone has ever sued a device manufacturer for producing a recording device that was used to make…

I prefer my ‘22 Ford Maverick that I ordered in August to my ‘91 Civic. Did I mention I’m still waiting to receive my Maverick?

I don’t understand how wifi affects this. What am I missing here?
