It’s basically an orange julius.  An orange slushie.

I’ve lived in Atlanta my whole life and have only gone to the Varsity maybe 3-4 times in my adult life. I have a real fondness for it because it’s a fun treat as a kid and I respect it as an Atlanta landmark.

It’s not a Michelen star place. It’s fame is basically its story and quirks.

“Frank Gordy opened The Varsity in 1928 as a 14-by-35-foot building with a six-stooled counter and a walk-up window. Four years later, Gordy opened a second location for The Varsity in Athens, Georgia, right across the street from the University of Georgia. By the end of the decade, the two locations had earned Gordy…

Yep...the only thing Nazis did was open death camps. Nothing short of that can be analogous. Your knowledge of 20th century European political history is impeccable.

How often are you stepping in motor oil and dogshit that you think every single person has one or the other on their shoe?

This is basically how I live my life, and my outcomes.

People are basing “13 is too much” on the empirical observation that every single show had way too little going on for that much time.  It’s not that there is some magic number, it’s that most of the seasons were objectively padded out and slow.

I enjoy Jeff Ross and roast jokes in general. This was baaaad. They were essentially just really weak, surface-level history lessons with very few jokes mixed in.

You realize the whole thing was shot and edited at once.  It’s not like progression of a 23 episode weekly comedy.  Whatever you were seeing was illusory.

So you’re contention is that the discoloration is caused by mold? Mold in the vinegar-based sauce.

It’s not an Asian thing.  It’s how that is taught in classical French training (i.e., every culinary school).

Next time he starts up with that shit, just answer “and, yet, here you are”.  Stare for a second, and then turn on your heel and leave his presence.

Thank you. This shit is so exhausting. Are some types of pizza better than others? Sure. Is Provel as a processed abomination that should consign the city of St. Louis to hell? Absolutely.

Are we really still taking these state map online survey nonsense as meaning literally anything?

This is absolutely, positively made up bullshit.  The Local is nowhere near famous enough for anyone to bite on it.  And it is like 20-30 minutes minimum away from Marietta square.

Seagulls suck.  People who Instagram food are far worse.

Those people are monsters.  My brother told me about eating with his in-laws at some suburban Italian family style place (read: huge plates of pasta meant to share) and none of them would take the leftovers home.  I later found out they won’t even eat the leftovers of something they cooked, which boggled my mind.

Ok...But you just explained why if they say “no”, you may not have an answer. In all situations where they say “yes”, you have an answer. That answer is: “I still intend to eat this”.

I’m glad you took my comment for the lighthearted ribbing it was.  I do find that genuinely interesting.
