But these memes also flattened Oppenheimer’s severity, creating a space for people to make jokes about an actual tragedy.

I came to post something about a dollar general and a subway and one gas station being in nearly every small town. 

Yes, it went back and to the left. Back and to the left. Back, and to the left.

Yeah not like this was in Philly.

I don't know how they can call this possible battery. It's clearly not battery. It is microphone.

Hawaiian barbeque is HUGE here in SoCal. From chains to mom-and-pop shops, it’s a toss up whether the strip mall has a Chinese fast food place, or Hawaiian barbeque. Sometimes they have both, with a Thai or pho spot for some extra variety.

conan o’brien always said he wanted his late night show to feel like pee wee’s playhouse. like anything could happen at any moment.

We used to call my great-aunt on the other side of the state — this is when long distance calls cost money — during Playhouse or his prime time specials, just to say the secret word and hear her scream, because we knew she’d be watching too.

I was in the Navy when that happened, and even our ship’s chaplain was like, “what’s the big deal?”

That happens when a lot of small local joints expand. We have a place here called Freebirds, it’s a mission style burrito think Chipotle only bigger, it used to be a great deal you got a huge ass burrito, like a monster (one of their sizes) was about the size of a 1 liter drink or bigger, a super monster, their…

I drive around rural MN & Iowa a lot. When I come upon a small town of a few hundred people there is often no restaurant there but if there is one place to eat, its always a Subway often times in the 2nd half of a gas station.

Of course none of them are within 500 yards of a school.

Huge fan of the Caesar flavor. Interesting that they are always in the produce section not the snack aisle at Safeway.

I like it.

I’ve been eating at or soon after five ever since my freshman year of college(18 years ago), because that’s when the cafeteria I ate at started serving dinner.

Fascinating. My own meal times have shifted along with different chapters in my life. For most of my adult life I rarely ate before 7PM, typically I’d eat closer to 8PM. Coincidentally, I lived in DC during this time period. Once I became a parent -- after leaving DC -- that shifted radically since my kid eats around…
