Honestly, you don’t even need to get to “trans representation” before this is wrong. There’s one simple question here: Was the character played by Laverne Cox a female? If so, her dub VO should have been… a female.  Not hard.  It really shouldn’t matter who was playing that character here in the US; it’s the dubber’s…

Tabasco = “slightly spicy diluted battery acid”

I like it on fish sometimes, but the turn off for me is that in restaurants, the bottles are always SO sticky, it’s gross.  Obviously no one ever cleans them, and the smell wafts all over the place even if it sits, untouched.

I didn’t realize banquette seating was still a thing. I’m racking my brain trying to recall the last time I even saw one at a restaurant. I’m almost certain the last time I sat at one of those tables was over 10 years ago, possibly even 20 years ago, in an entirely different part of the country.

I don’t think I’d say they’re “all over the south” — there are a smattering of them in Louisiana now, and some in South Carolina, but none in MS, AL, AR or FL.  And none in TN outside of the 9 in Nashville.

The south has Krystal, which is its own sort of hell.

Situations like this are why I could never work as a server, because before my brain could realize it’s a bad idea, I would have blurted out, “Well, I guess you’re not that special after all, huh?”

If Yellowknife ever gets a Popeyes, that KFC would shut down again.

To support the codec that Google is pushing would require a more expensive chipset than what’s in most of the Rokus at the moment. Only the Ultra currently has the necessary hardware to deliver streaming video in that AV1 codec from what I understand.

I’m glad this question has been asked, because I do not have room for an air fryer but I already have a convention (toaster) oven.  I’ll try garlic in it next time and see how it does.  

Is Pizza Hut still offering their Detroit Style somewhere? It lasted about a week at my location. It was gone faster than white people leaving Detroit.

The quesadilla is definitely the worst of the “Mexican” food choices we have.  Along with the ubiquitous “chicken, covered in cheese dip, served on a bed of rice” plate, it’s the thing really picky eaters get because it’s simple and not challenging.  (And because it’s Mexican, it’s still really good.)

Now that I think about it, I’ve never had a crunchy soup. Maybe they’re onto something!

It said 41, which is not that far off. I’ll be 45 later this month.  I refrained from selecting things in both categories based on what I *might* like but have never tried, though.

Well, there’s always the house in The Conners.  

It makes me glad I bought the DVD box set back in the early 2000's after the show was being shown on Court TV at night.

First you get the syrup, then you get the pancakes, they you get the ‘beetus.

^^^This. I was raised in an era when convenience outweighed taste, and mom had an entire library of cookbooks that seemingly went out of their way to require Cream of Something in every. single. recipe.

In the History Channel series The Food That Built America, the invention of the Filet-o-Fish is shown in the McDonald’s vs. BK episode. They specifically show Ray Kroc tasting one for the first time, being unimpressed, then taking a piece of cheese, tearing it in half, and adding it. It’s never explained why he went…

Walleye is also seasonally available at their Alabama locations, too. It’s quite a treat because we don’t get a lot of freshwater fish choices here beyond catfish.
