I daily drive a 1998 Grand Marquis LS and it is just the best. Big comfy seats, cant even feel the road and sturdy. City mpg isnt great, but my commute is 6 miles round trip in traffic so its fine. I recently took it on a 1600mi road trip over 3 days and averaged 25mpg and never felt tired in it, even after 12hrs of…

I graduated high school in ‘93, so I very much saw tons of these floating around in my youth. I recall being annoyed at the handful of kids who drove what was clearly their grandparents old car, because street parking outside the high school was precious and these thing inevitably took up two spaces.

Dear powers that be,

I have been slowly building up my pantry, something I intend to continue doing this next week. I don’t want to panic buy because that causes problems, but I definitely have more flour, sugar, and butter than I am likely to go through very fast. And liquor. I’ll probably buy another flat of tp next time I’m shopping…

Cranberry-pomegranate? No thanks pal.

One Socrates Fizz, coming up!

Having been raised in Indiana, the thing that is likely the one thing I miss the most is the breaded pork tenderloin sandwich. Taking a slice of pork loin, tenderizing it as well as pounding it to a thin slice three or four times larger than your average hamburger bun, then dredging it, in order, flour, egg wash and…

I had been thinking that even after all his screw-ups, if he had just let a second round of stimulus checks go through in October, the bastard would probably have won easily. It would have been the easiest, most half-ass measure ever, and he still didn't do it. 

THANK YOU. People treating this like a pathetic joke that will go nowhere... IS EXACTLY HOW WE ENDED UP HERE IN THE FIRST PLACE! Aaaaaaaaaaaaa

I believe this as well. If Waddles had simply taken to the airwaves and given a generic “we’re all in this together” address the TV pundits would have spent the rest of the year breathlessly gushing about how he finally became “presidential”. But, Waddles being Waddles and all, he decided to base his “response” on his…

All he had to do, literally, was tell people to wear masks and pretend to care. He would have won the election. He’s spent his whole life doing as little as possible and whining about not getting enough credit. 

The irony is that if Trump put half the effort he put into actually trying to pull off this out in the open coup, he’d have probably gotten a lid on COVID-19 and legit won his own reelection.

Mustard is my spouse’s secret ingredient in damn near everything.

Now I am looking at a big box of Walkers with 5 types of crisps in them.

Tomatoes. And bread.

Korean salted fermented seafoods. Sometimes I can go through a jar of ojingojeot in a bit over a week. 

Leader in the clubhouse: Lao Gan Ma. Everytime I take a spoonful of it (no YOU have a problem) I ask myself why I don’t do this more often.

Up and comer: ‘Nduja. Because the best possible thing for a sedentary WFH lush is spreadable charcuterie.

World Market sells Marmite! I think Mariano's in the Chicago area does, too.

It will be a very cold day in hell before I ever go on Facebook again, but the over/under on McRibs I’m going to eat this year? 49.5. Place your bets.

This is where you can tell who grew up in the country and who didn’t because farm kids find random trash buried all the time and would have just opened that bucket immediately (and probably been scarred for life). But it would never, ever occur to me to call the police after digging up a 5lb bucket in the yard without…
