While my home state of CA has a solid choice in mashed potatoes, my adopted state of MA has the superior selection of stuffing. (Cornbread stuffing for me, thanks)

Like, in the day and age of Google, these levels of mistakes on everyone’s part are just baffling. It’s never been easier to learn stuff about other cuisines! I’m banging my head, but I think only one of the buns approached actual Japanese flavors.

I stumbled upon Gosling’s ginger ale and now that’s all I’ll drink.

It seems to be an increasingly global trend in English-language media as well. I feel like you see a lot more interesting faces in British stuff, but that’s also been trending towards pretty people only for a while.

All I remember about seeing Entrapment as a teenager was how embarassing a movie it was for Connery who clearly couldn’t keep up and was old enough to be her grandfather.

I’m not familiar with Flynn, but he seems woefully miscast based on the trailer.

I feel like Hermine’s been robbed of star baker a couple of times now (but not this week), and she’s who I’m rooting for the most at this point, but it’s really lovely to like all the contestants again. (Last season was a struggle for me.)

I got the impression that she was actually annoyed by the exchange, but was putting a good face on it for the cameras.

Spike is such a good album

I was just thinking that at 40, I just can’t imagine dating a 27 yo no matter how attractive, and he’s 16 yrs older than me!

Where I grew up in CA, a cruller referred to a French cruller (the choux-based round, puffy ring). Enter wikipedia to explain that there are different kinds of crullers, which I did not know, although I do know in my travels in the US at some point seeing the kind you’re referring to and being baffled.

True Blood is baffling, because while the books jumped the shark with the fairy shit too, at least where Sookie ends up makes sense.

Sometimes I wonder what it would be like if all the hacky White people got raptured, whether in entertainment, media, and/or gov’t.

Welp, as a MA resident, I guess it’s a good thing that I just forgot to pick up ham at the store this evening, although I did snag some capicollo a few days ago, but I haven’t gotten sick, so I guess it’s okay.

I honestly don’t care so long as the assholes get theirs and we finally see some meaningful masthead changes

Also: many CC students work their asses off, figuratively and literally. They don’t expect anything to be handed to them, which is NOT the case with too many students at elite institutions

Hoping Question 2 passes down here in Mass so we can have RCV for the next go-round

And here I was saying 60'Minutes themselves should release the unedited footage! Just goes to show how far from reality Trump’s base is.

If Biden wins, he better not pardon any of these motherfuckers. I wouldn’t be surprised because it’s the sort of genial toxicity dressed up as bipartisanship I expect from those in power.

Oof, this has taken Bill Nighy down a couple of pegs in my regard.
