That’s fair. I wouldn’t have a way of knowing which are East Coast and which are just “east half”, since it seems like those rankings tend to end at the Mississippi. I saw my first Raising Cane’s this last weekend in Reno, when I happened to be in the middle of a lengthy excursion to rural Nevada. If we hadn’t already…

5 guys is literally twice the price of In n Out. Which also sounds like a set of options at a Vegas bordello.

I think we talk about In-N-Out so much as a response to hearing endlessly about the eastern fast food and fast-food-adjacent chains that get a looot of talk from a predominantly east-coast focused media. I’ve read plenty of stories here about White Castle, Culvers, Steak n’ Shake, White Castle, Waffle House, Wawa,…

This. It’s a unique flavor that doesn’t really compare to other establishments. You have to look at the type of burger and what the restaurant offers, not just any burger.

There is the slight problem of Mitch McConnell...

I’m comfortable with my revulsion towards trump, and all other sociopaths.  It lets me know my moral compass is still working.

more vaporware companies popping up trying to get their piece of the cake and repeat tesla’s unrepeatable success wont do shit to help anyone but investors.

Why? I was doing curbside pickup for a lot of our grocery needs prior to covid, and I continue using it today. Sometimes I enjoy going to the “nice” grocery store nearby and picking out my own produce and meat, but I prefer not to waste my time for everyday items.

You still want Madonna, though, right? Right??

But as an evil gameshow host Daffy straight up shot a dude.

Came to post this. The Loki is Daffy comparison is perfect, almost old-school AV Club. Daffy is the petulant, id-driven, resentful adult in all of us. I may have said too much.

“But there’s a paradoxical sort of power in the part of the perpetual loser, too, one that Hiddleston, and Loki, seem eager to tap into. After all, who actually likes Bugs Bunny?”

“what happens when you get involved with Americans. As simple as that.”

I don’t care about the royal family being dissed.
