Note to you: selling a food item from a different cultural background probably cool and fine. I’m sure some people will criticize you, but you’re running a food business and someone will always criticize you.

When you start out by calling a food “foreign” and “weird,” people get mad! Who could have possibly seen this coming!!

Literally the first thing I thought to. It almost makes the story too unbelievable.

He comes off as a guy who is just really grateful for every role he’s had.

I think you are missing the point if you don’t grasp that women in abusive relationships can’t just leave, it’s not that simple. Murder seems like a viable option to Allison because she feels that trapped by Kevin.

The thing that works for me is the plots are so hacky. This episode took two of the laziest premises possible and made the episode work. Every sitcom has had a “man goes on 2 dates at once” episode. Frasier had countless “turned out to be a gay date” episodes. And with Sam showing up, Alison had the “boss shows up for

I think what works for me is that Alison is kind of annoying.

I like the 2 rotisserie or fried chickens for $10! But we live far from a Mariano’s so going to one is kind of a treat these days.

She thinks its for an interrogation (is that why you dressed up so nicely in a beautiful blouse, Patty?), but it turns out to be date

I keep going back to this whenever I feel like I need my spirits lifted. My wife and I have binged this and Schitt’s within the last year, and man, what a perfect pair of shows to get through a tumultuous year.

I just use Starbucks Via instant. Its the only instant I’ve ever had that actually tastes like coffee.

Same could be said for raising CEO and other C-suite pay, which has outpaced inflation by a factor of 10X. 

My Nonnas are going to haunt you for this article. NEVER put oil in the pasta water - it makes the pasta slick and your sauce will not stick to it. I will die on this hill.

I usually use a sauté pan for cooking pasta on the stove. Less water, better sauce adhesion, less boil over, and faster as you’re not heating up a ton of water. Also safer as you’re not moving around a big boiling pot of water (important when you have waterfowl running around your kitchen or watching you cook).

Apparently Kennedy wanted Johnson to helm the third film, too, but he was tied up with other work and Iger didn’t want to spend the time waiting for him to be available because he wanted to retire with the third film’s success. Had RJ been handed the job, he would have been able to follow up on his own plot threads.

Weird thing is, after TFA, Abrams was talking about how he had read Johnson’s script for Chapter 8 and thought it was amazeballs and how he wished he had thought of some of that stuff.

I don’t think The Martian is a great movie, but it’s probably one of the more impressive movies in recent memory just in terms of sheer tonnage of talent in the cast.

I’ve not rewatched this in a few years but I remember loving it every time I saw it.

It’s your bread.  Eat it whenever you damn well please.  It isn’t even tacky to take it home if you don’t finish it since they can’t serve it again.

Yep, definitely Team Albanese here as well. Interesting that Haribo is stepping right into Albanese country with their new factory.
