Nah, sabrage involves using the sabre creating overpressure on the seams and edges of the bottle neck.  The opening just snaps off.

I think you also have to blame Ainge for putting a team together that even Stevens can’t get to perform. Ainge sees the Celtics only as an accumulation of assets without regard to chemistry or fit, and reluctant to make any trade where he doesn’t clearly win (at which point he lets the media know that the other team…

Don’t spray champagne, sabre it. No inconsiderate spraying, and if anyone doesn’t like it, you have the means to change their opinion.

The practice is so pervasive that Restaurant Hospitality is now dispensing advice on how restaurants can Instagram-ify their commodes, from adding graphic wallpaper to stenciling hashtags on the mirror to hanging disco balls.

On the Lowe Post interview, Siakam recalled how during the draft he had been brought into workouts not because teams were interested in looking at him, but rather to use him as a live scrimmage body to check out more heralded prospects.

When he found this out, he got mad and wrecked them like he did with the 5th-place C…

From ESPN:

Giannis.

Another season of regurgitated sentimentality for Dirk’s retirement tour is better than making a further 30 minutes of small talk on the station platform and train with a date you know you’ll never see again because you didn’t know you both live on the same line.

It doesn’t sound particularly fancy to me either, but maybe their restaurant choices were limited or this was the only reservation they could snag/afford. I’m not too bothered about that; it’s his paranoia and lack of perspective that is annoying.

Today, the chain added the Spiciest Ghost Pepper McChicken with, you guessed it, a creamy Ghost Pepper sauce.

Absolutely. I already occasionally put eggs on the pizzas I make at home and put sausage/bacon/pepperoni into them. A breakfast pizza would be great for incorporating some veggies (fresh tomatoes, onions, peppers, spinach) to the start of the day.

(Just tweak the size—8" personal pie?—so I don’t go full piggo.  And…

Vowels are xpnsv. Why not just call it a “StrEight?”

Sorry, wasn’t trying to be aggro.  This guy seems ridiculous.

Sure, but if it’s a place that serves both fried chicken and pasta, I’m pretty sure it doesn’t have tasting menus. Three courses, max.

Hrm, that time-table is at odds with my own experience frying chicken, where even thighs and quarters are cooked after about 10-11 minutes.

But as you say, fried chicken holds pretty well under a heat lamp (and I’ve even cooked mine in large batches, frozen them, and then reheated them in the oven for meals). Agreed on…

Seriously.  Get the fancy dinner the weekend prior, and spend the actual day with each other doing something meaningful.

The restaurant’s only fault was bringing your main before your girlfriend’s. That’s unconscionably stupid.

Maybe the happy ending will come easier if the two would just hug each other.

I suspect they’ll use the Whole Foods distribution and retail network for storage and shipping.  When Amazon bought Whole Foods, it was the distribution network that was seen as the real prize of the purchase.

The prime rib looks pretty tasty, but the meal should really come with a gallon pail of generic ice cream that has rando swirls i nit.
