Spilt beer nets a thought and a prayer.

The Regal of Dorian Gray?

This was actually a plot point in a book I read (I forget which one, but it was by Jasper Fforde). A character had a car that always remained pristine, and in the trunk was a portrait of the car that kept getting more decrepit. 

Shazam failed me - what is the song playing in this video at the beginning? 

I seriously thought this show had been canceled in like 2005.

Welp, the poster was from California. It seems whenever there’s an article about Chipotle, it’s full of commenters from California saying the same thing. I’m rather surprised there wasn’t some variation of “I guess it’s fine if you live in the Midwest/South/East where there aren’t any AUTHENTIC Mexican restaurants”.

I once read a comment from a woman who claimed that compact only spaces were “unfair”. Like, it wasn’t fair that she couldn’t park her truck in a spot closer to whatever building she was going to. Nothing about how the vehicle wouldn’t actually fit there anyway (of course, her truck would fit just fine!), it was just…

Honestly? It’s not worth paying for just Grand Tour. It looks pretty but it’s pretty lame a lot of the time. However, it’s worth getting Prime to watch the tons of other stuff on offer - I consider GT to be a small bonus to having Prime (I don’t buy enough stuff from Amazon to make the occasional free shipping pay for…

The top photo appears to be from his reboot of the Charmin commercials.

Mac & Cheese with sausage is the best. I’ve got a great recipe for skillet mac with Italian sausage that’s just fantastic. That said I’ve sure added it to boxed mac as well.

My other favorite boxed mac add is a dollop of pesto (I like the Buitoni brand but whatever you dig). Mix it in with the cheese and it adds a…

I think it’s obviously superimposed, I’m just not sure if they shot each actor separately, or if they’re all standing on green screen boxes together in a group.

I don’t mind the Goldbergs particularly - I don’t watch a whole lot of major network tv anymore (I’m just not home much and I don’t have the time to DVR stuff and watch it anymore), but it was fine when it was on. I’m just surprised that they’d try a spinoff of it - from what I recall, none of the secondary characters…

I can’t tell if it’s a group shot that’s been superimposed on the picture of the old truck, or if it’s a bunch of individual pictures of each person superimposed on the picture of the old truck. 

Wait, theres a Goldbergs spinoff? 

While I’m perfectly all right with this take, I feel it’s entirely location dependent. You’re in Texas, right? For fun I looked at the weather in Amarillo, since it’s pretty far north in that state (I felt picking someplace like Houston or San Antonio would be cheating). It’s 65°F right now. I’m in Chicago, where it’s…

You ever seen that movie “Christmas Vacation”? Remember that bit with Cousin Eddie emptying the chemical toilet of his RV? It’d look like that. Maybe without the stogie.

I see (non-EVO) Lancers fairly frequently, followed by beat up later Eclipses. I can’t actually picture their current lineup so maybe I see them more than I realize. I can’t remember seeing any of their older trucks in a long time.

Ferris Bueller’s Day Off. I think I saw it like two or three in the theater when it came out. - and it was the first mostly adult film I got to see on my own as a young teen. So my friends and I went to it a few times - then it hit the local one screen neighborhood theater, which only charged like a buck for a show.…

I generally don’t drink hot beverages, so when I do have coffee or tea it’s iced. I get the weirdest looks in the winter when I do that. 

Honestly? Fried foods and menthol cigarettes. At an apartment I used to live in, the kitchen vent fans just vented into the walls. Since it was a cheapish apartment, if you vented something really strong it would get into the kitchen next door. So I’d get whiffs of fried something when the woman next door cooked. But,…

I remember, about two weeks after starting driver’s ed, my folks let me buy my first car, which because my dad wanted another sports car to replace the ones they had before kids, ended up being an MG Midget. Dad taught me how to get the car rolling in a parking lot, and I practiced it in our driveway, backing down the…
