I get it, especially if you are from an area where the main sports team people root for is the local college team and you either want to go to college someplace else/go to a different type of school. That said, I don't really get going to Louisville if you like Kentucky that much. They seem fairly fungible to me in…

And that is why you don't try to teach lessons to your students

I was sooooo confused by Hot Tamales Spray, but apparently it is/was a thing? Basically Cinnamon flavored breath spray like Binaca CinnaMint

This was a totally dick move. It sounds like the family members wanted to take advantage of this 1 for 6 deal and only told Mistergrits and the other friend about it afterwards so that they couldn't get in on the deal. That's completely selfish. I would respond to the bride that Mistergrits (and potentially as a…

I'm not ashamed to say I have drunk gravy straight out of a gravy boat before, but cold diet gravy flavored milkshake sounds MAD NASTY.

Everyone has to do what they have to do, I just get mad about the foie gras issue because the sort of small farmers who follow the practices all animal raising enterprises should strive for are being forced out of business by laws such as the one in CA because of misinformation and the fact that unlike the big factory…

The risk of injury to the esophagus during gavage and subsequent infection is an issue, but far less of one than you think. At least in the US, the farms producing foie gras employ trained people to perform gavage properly and minimize the risk of infection (indeed most offer bonuses based on duck health among ducks…

Good thing that's not how foie gras is made. Foie gras ducks (like all ducks raised for human consumption) are processed/killed/slaughtered well before any health consequences from the enlarged livers could cause any problems. Remember, because ducks/geese migrate over extremely long distances they have evolved to…

Give me a break. Have you had a chicken nugget or a burger that wasn't free-range/grass fed ever in your life? Congrats! You ate food that an animal was tortured to make. Foie gras production is not torture compared to those. The duck's physiology allows them to be gavaged pretty painlessly and when they aren't doing…

From comparing foie gras farms (which are almost entirely cage free/free range) to the sorts of factory farms where most of the meat in this country is produced. Remember grass-fed/free-range/cage-free meat is still a relative rarity in this country. I think I read somewhere that around 90% of the meat in this country…

I would estimate the people who make foie gras treat their animals better than about 90% of the meat animals are treated in this country so I don't know why they would have a karma deficit...

OMG THIS SOUNDS AMAZING WANT IN MY MOUTH RIGHT NOW

You know what else is unhealthy when used in excess? Salt. Americanized Chinsese food is the unholy trifecta of sugar, oil, and sodium. That's why people feel sick after eating it. MSG sensitivity is bullshit.

Yeah, but she had the offer and she included the caveat that she didn't think that all of these were going to happen if any of them. Nazareth could have just said no to all of her requests and seen if she still was willing to accept instead of rescinding the offer altogether.

Exactly, I'd rather eat someone's face that be eaten from the inside...

Yes.

That would be fine, but that's not how the paparazzi works. I worked for a place w/ lots of celebrity clients and I would literally see people hiding in the bushes waiting to ambush when our clients came. I had to drive our clients out in the hopes that they wouldn't realize they were in our car, and while most of the…

Completely agree. I used to work for a company that represented Garner and we had to go through all kinds of rigamarole to get her in and out of the office for a meeting to hopefully not alert the papz to her presence, and if they did show up, there were lots of secret agent-type maneuvers we did to get her out…

I thought it was Noah's sons got drunk and raped him?

Agreed, shouldn't have switched to "just as bad as they are." While both are logically and intellectually equivalent, I stand by the fact that making a relatively consequence-free comment on Jezebel without much evidence to back it up doesn't necessarily demand as much logical/intellectual rigor as making the decision…
