Made this recipe last weekend! Great taste, like pumpkin pie in a glass. It went well with both bourbon and rum; I mixed it N/A so everyone could try but it seems that it would be better when fully premixed with the booze.

Yeah very often it’s an old lady who just realized she was in a car going 59 mph on I-5.

It wasn’t that long ago when I used to immediately reply to “that’s gay” with “YOU’RE gay!”

Two thoughts:

I will admit that I found RP1 really fun and worth my time on audiobook, but man has it aged like milk.

That’s a stupid attitude. I also chose to be childless and I still give a shit about the long-term health of the planet. We still haven’t proven that life exists anywhere else in the universe so we should try to preserve this little speck.

Making bear-proof trashcans that are still easy enough for the dimmest/laziest human to use is a real challenge.

I’ve felt like a chump about the loan I got that one time back in the day. Now, I’m kind of excited it was for less than 20%. Thanks Jalops for making me feel better!

Thanks to Jalopnik I understood every line of this. 

I can get on board with calling compound butter something other than a sauce. I’m definitely struggling with what, though.

Welp, guess it’s time to go play Katamari again.

Over the 4th I was able to re-confirm that Busch Light is still not horrible but not something I will ever directly spend money on ever again.

I agree - that’s some good college pranking. I kind of remember the police weren’t excited about it (true to any college town, Ames PD was not a fan of student hijinks). I think whoever was doing it stopped once it hit the newspaper.

I grew up in rural Iowa in the 90's. The naïve attitude at the time for a lot of farm and farm-adjacent folks was just ‘leave the keys in the ignition, nobody’s around to steal it’. Funny thing about that is that people didn’t remember to stop that habit when they went to college.  There was a series of quasi-thefts

Exactly! We were sitting there wondering why the house lights weren’t coming up, so we walked out in the dark.

Two guys with a floor jack and a sawzall can strip a Prius in about 2 minutes (just enough time for a bystander to say, “What are those guys doing? Hey I should do something, whoops they’re gone already.”) 

I’m kind of surprised that there are so many surprised folks here in the comments. I’m living in California and this stupid shit has been going on for years. There was a lull a few years back when the state required recyclers to ask for chain-of-custody, but they apparently found a loophole because thefts are up

Same! I can’t figure it out either.

After I saw the review here, I said “oh no, I love it.” Sounds like I’m not alone...

I can’t figure it out either. Superhero movies and LOTR are fine at 2.5-3 hours if there’s a lot of story to tell (but The Hobbit says otherwise so, counterpoint). Give me a 90-minute tidy film with a good story arc and I’m happy. Is it a sense that you don’t get your money’s worth if you don’t get 180 minutes of seat
