A medal? Are you kidding me?! 

Pity he’s not a Democrat, then there would at least be a chance he’d have to resign. As it stands, I’m sure he’s in line for a GOP medal or something.

Cold hot dogs remind me of Vienna Sausages, which my mom would buy a lot of. Just the memory of the smell is too much for me now. Chipped beef on toast was a staple in my house.

There are some local fresh dairy butters around here that I feel no shame in taking a slice, alone. They are heavenly. Some of the salted goat’s milk butters are divine. 

Omg Dimetapp was my jam! I snuck sips of that ALL THE TIME.

Peanut butter and hot sauce rolled in a tortilla. And by "as a kid" I'm including up to age "today".

Even if they are upset with her, they won’t do or say anything because it is more important that liberals are upset.

I was always partial to grape Dimetapp

Hard pretzel sticks, dipped in butter. Transcendent. 

I did this when I was very young. My mom also had to hide/boobytrap the pink liquid amoxicillin (“the pink stuff”) because I would try to sneak little nips from the fridge.

Hate to say it, but I came here to agree with you.  Her supporters are folk who believe that if she does what she’s committed to do, they too will one day be able to drop $700 on a steak dinner just for funzies.  The hypocrisy does not bother them.  It’s a feature, not a bug. 

I surmise that possibly its not the actual steak that ran up the bill but perhaps the cabernet (or three) that was ordered to wash it all down.

The most I’ve ever spent on a steak was maybe $20. I’d say it was a pretty good steak too. Worth the price. I’ve never had a Wagyu steak. I hear it’s pretty good too. But I have to imagine there’s diminishing returns on just how good a steak can get. I don’t think I’ll ever need to spend more than $20 dollars on a…

I had just moved to the East Village (in the gritty-grimy-Guardian Angels days) and was riding uptown for a job interview. The train was in motion and through the door of the previous car came a half of a man pushing himself through the car on a skateboard. He looked like he had been cut off at the waist. I couldn’t…

In high school a group of friends and I once rode a bus with a guy who started yankin’ it; it horrified us at the time but nowadays it seems routine.

‘95? So what was the orange drink they served in the 70s?

1995? I beg to differ.. that was my drink of choice at McDs starting in the 1980s.

Agreed- maybe 95 was when it hit the “soda fountain” but it was certainly available in the 80's.  Of course in the 80s you didn’t have the self serve fountains either.  Maybe it was in more of an iced tea style dispenser behind the counter? 

Yeah, I remember having ‘Orange Drink’ with my very first Happy Meal back in the late 70's. Now, whether that was actually the Hi-C branded orange flavor could be another story.

I also remember the toy was some kind of plastic flying toy powered by rubber-band, and that it was just utter garbage. Ah, memories....

Yes, and 1995 seems too recent for its introduction? It dates back at least to the early 80s in the states in the “available only from a cooler” format — our local McDonald’s always donated coolers of this to the blood drives held at my high school.
