Kevin P. had a delightful article where he tried to recreate a Pizza Hut pan Meat Lover’s pizza on their classy snooty dime. It mostly served to illustrate that this family of sites has willingly cast aside more talent than most will ever have in the first place.

I’m in Evanston, which borders Chicago on the north side. Owning a rental property is a dream both me and my wife share. Not being fucking slumlords is a half-mil-minimum dream as well, on top of our current mortgage, which basically means “Ain’t happening”, which is too bad, since the best versions of us are the best…

I would like to put forth an honorary nomination for the whole crew at America’s Test Kitchen and Cook’s Country (now that Chris Kimball is gone, of course). They’re great at teaching not just the “how” to cook, but the “why” this dish works and the previous attempts didn’t.

It almost seems like we’re approaching something like the housing market, where the middle is increasingly hollowed out and all I see is $100k houses in places I don’t want to live or $500k+ in places I (and many other people) do.

This right here. For white people, so long as they’re not yelling that N word with the hard-R all the time like their actual racist Uncle Steve, all the shit they ignore and all the systemic shit they benefit from and either support or tolerate, they’re 100% not racist. It is the N word and the N word alone that makes…

How to find out if you are black:

Wait, wait, wait, Dan Bongino says he isn’t black? What the fuck does he say he is?

I LoL’d and RoFl’d when Papa John, that utter and complete fuckstick, was in a frenzy that health care for their employees would add 14 cents to the cost of a large pizza, and expected a great tidal wave of outrage to rise up to support him.

I absolutely think that comedy should be dangerous and exciting, but at this point is there literally anything more safe and boring than saying “GAY PEOPLE I MEAN WHAT IS WRONG WITH THEM??”

It’s saying something that “Doddering around some of the world’s most beautiful gardens and spending the rest of your life in unimaginable luxury” isn’t good enough for him now, considering how recently being the Royal Diddler could have meant choosing poison or the oubliette.

I was looking for this comment. I live down the block from an old, large, very Black baptist church. These kind of cars are all the way up and down my street every Sunday, down to the skinny whitewalls with the yellow pinstripe, tops almost always tan or body color. Buicks, Avalons, Lexus ES350's, Cadillacs, each one…

Me an my wife have a 5-year age difference, but about a 25-year pop culture gap. I remember endless “Little House on the Prairie” and “Bonanza” and “Andy Griffith” reruns, and being excited for new “Dukes Of Hazzard” or “A-Team” episodes. She doesn’t remember a world without “Seinfeld” or “The Simpsons”.

I hate that as I’ve gotten older I’ve become such a shill for Costco, but I just need to accept it. We bought a GTI through them, MSRP was $32,500. They calculated their price as $900 below invoice, so we were around $28,500, and we paid another $500 for them to trade for the color we wanted with another dealership (It…

That’s a game I occasionally think back on fondly, because I have completely forgotten the cutscenes and remember the gameplay, which was good. Then I read a synopsis and the hate is real again.

That’s really how they think The Libs actually are in private - Saturday morning cartoon villains. “We must figure out a way to convince stupid and weak women to get as many abortions as possible! But how?!” or “Yes, and once we’ve taken away all the honest white people’s money, we’ll give it to The Blacks, and they…

Also similar is Test Kitchen’s carne deshebrada (and their adovada which is also related). The first time I made it I teared up, because I could barely believe *I* made something so wonderful. Only recommended tweak is to not toss the onion rounds, because they’re delicious.

I have had the opposite experience, but I really do want to get more mileage out of my IP. At the very least I should start using scraps to make broth.

I mean, a habitual drunk driver can still say that you shouldn’t drink and drive.

It’s just being an obnoxious asshole because you’re really insecure and think it’s funny.

I think one of my strengths in relationships (and how I landed an absolutely amazing and lovely wife) is I learned straight-forwardness. If I liked a girl, I’d just say “You’re funny and gorgeous, would you like to maybe go on a date sometime?” and “I really enjoy spending time with you, and if you’re interested I’d…
