I’ll just take a moment to comment on KFC’s “weird” MTN Dew. Sweet Lightning is currently the proverbial Cadillac of Dew flavors. It’s peach flavored and amazing. I'm almost glad it isn't available elsewhere because I'd drink it daily.

It’s their network. They are literally co-owners with Discovery and "Magnolia" is their brand name.

If the article is accurate, the developers know exactly what they’re doing: Catering to the alt-right and intentionally courting outrage from others in order to sell more copies to the alt-right who will do so because there’s nothing better than triggering liberals.

I’d know. Honestly, if you can’t tell cod from pollock from halibut from whatever you’re eating, thick batter or not, then you’re probably not eating much fish. Either that or you’re eating a lot of over-processed, frozen product.

Nobody's that straight (or gay or asexual).

Brunch is demeaning to two good meals and a sure way to waste a day of leisure.

Except that a) the movie was a huge hit, b) he was great in it, and c) it didn't immediately lead to more work despite all that. I doubt he'd have any complaints if he'd have started fielding offers for new parts paying the same and more.

Considering he was excellent in the movie and it was a hit, I'd say it's the fault of every Hollywood casting director.

I think that’s unfair to Paul. Jürgen made flavor decisions that Paul didn’t like. He could have gotten away with it in either the signature or the showstopper, but doing it in both was a killer. Paul’s set aside his personal flavor preferences in the past, but I think it’s unfair to expect him to do it twice during a

I’ve come to feel like they use the technical as a tiebreaker. In this case, since Paul felt strongly about Jürgen’s signature and showstopper while Prue liked everyone else’s showstoppers better and couldn’t pick a signature loser, that was enough to send Jürgen home.

Of course, but while money is power, money plus power equals even more power. Being a disgraced ex-CEO means fewer people will take his calls, he’ll get fewer invitations to lavish parties, and he won’t get another CEO job with an established powerhouse company (he might have to do actual work if he takes another job).

You will never be kicked out of a casino (or off a blackjack table) for paying attention or being smart unless you happen to have a perfect memory. Counting cards is a very specific skill that can be identified by an experienced observer, primarily by betting pattern.

It does. For example, there’s no specific rule against shouting obscenities in a grocery store, but if you do (and don’t stop when confronted) you’ll likely be thrown out. If you think that’s too obvious, there’s no rule against taking all the Oreos off a shelf and stacking them neatly on the ground, but a store will

Nope. Casinos take a “rake” on every poker pot. Their profit (small compared to other games) happens no matter who wins.

I’d say what makes gluttony a fault is when it hurts other people. This story qualifies on a couple levels: The guy is hurting the restaurant’s profits and he’s taking specific [popular] foods in such large amounts that other people don’t get a chance to eat them.

Well, the eating part is pure nonsense if the implication is that only the buffet will provide the person enough food. Fat people don’t need to eat huge amounts to survive, and a 300-pound Cher would offer similar visual contrast if the goal is staying fat for the show.

Why make a special rule to cover inconsiderate scumbags who refuse to go along with societal norms? 86ing the scumbags when they show who they are is much easier and doesn’t require posting an off-putting list of rules that will insult those who have learned how to live with others in a society.

It remains a facile comparison.

It remains a facile comparison.

I'm sorry, but are you equating rich board members with conflicts of interest to reporters/writers who work for multiple companies during their careers? Are you stupid or just disingenuous?
