But no one’s going to be broken by that belief, because the bureaucracy doesn’t let anyone in on the secret.

I think the words were actually, sincerely meant — I think Carden and Danson both think each other is great.

I don’t remember empathy being a part of Forever. Characters were generally pretty detestable, in that typical Fred Armisen way. Sometimes it works (like a solid, say one-third of the bits on Portlandia), Forever did not, for me.

Are you suuuure that seeing her cameo coming a mile away didn’t make you happier? You seem pretty pleased.

So god loosed this unnatural, great evil on everyone, except for his kid?

Exactly — an actual heaven is an impossible-to-execute concept. Different people inherently have different preferences. My wife and I agree on most things but not all.

Best ep is S1's ...Someone Like Me as a Member.

I disagree.

No, where was he?

You should delete this.

They absolutely don’t. I had started a different Radiotopia podcast, was mildly interested, then they ran an ad for Polybius and that sounded more interesting so I switched to that sell if episodes. After ep 1, I said these presenters are kind of dumb, so went looking for reviews, and found this.

Yes, timing-wise, the thing to do is when it arrives is to say something like “I’m sorry, but I don’t want this anymore”, with a pleasant but maybe slightly pained tone and expression, suggesting you know you’re sightly putting them out, but it can’t be helped.

Did it make for a fun story?

That’s the genius of Trump. He's Nixon, but he Tweets all the terrible stuff in his head rather than hide it in secret tapes.

Just to clarify, your original comment said HEB was weeks ahead of the rest, not just days. That much definitely felt wrong to me.

Would’ve mostly agreed with you until I moved to NY. While the crust is fantastic, traditional toppings invariably suck on a NY slice because they way way under-sauce it, and the rest just doesn’t work without the sweet/umami/luscious mouthfeel from the tomato sauce.

I love HEB, but your recollection of the post-Harvey situation is wrong. Most other stores reopened in the same timeline as HEB.

Don’t forget that Whole Foods was a piece of shit before Amazon, even.

I love me some Central Market, like love it love it, but I’m pretty sure you’re off here.
