My mom’s side of the family were all from the North Woods of Wisconsin and I spent many summers waaaay up north, so cheese curds have been part of my life forever. The best of the Wisconsin curds are lightly dipped in beer batter (tempura will do too) for a shattering crunch. Culver’s are hot trash - entombed in a…

That color coding is absolute trash for us color blind people.

Great custard, solid burgers, tasty fries ... but yeah I’m not going there for the cheese curds.

Their cheese curds have the texture of a mozzarella stick, just bite sized and made with cheddar. You get absolutely no squeak when you bite into them, and I’d estimate about 10-15% of them in each order contain absolutely no cheese and are just empty husks of breading.

I had to stop getting lunch at DQ Grill & Chill to save myself. Fried curds are really addictive.

Hot take: Culver’s cheese curds are Just Okay. They have a lot of breading on them that makes them less appealing to me. The best fried curds are lightly battered and just barely keeping it together.

There isn’t a lot of difference in sitting in my car at work compared to at mcdonalds.  Also, the walk from office to car + drive to McDonalds time is greater than the time it takes to create a fast food order to not end up with the food getting cold, so I would need to really place the order like 5 minutes out from…

I refuse to use any fast food ordering apps because no deal is worth them selling my info.

It’s from this.

I’ve never read that piece, but now I worry that Amy Sedaris needs more fibre in her diet.

Phone calls on the shitter always reminds me of this David Sedaris bit.

I’ve seen the reservation fees vary from $50/person “insurance” fee, to a full $199/person up-front meal coverage.
In most of these cases, they were Michelin-starred restaurants and the fees explained as insurance against no-shows.

I’d like to think this drives off the nuisance res-bots, but it sure hasn’t mattered…

Most of the restaurants we go to, especially anything remotely expensive, seems to have an automated system to confirm reservations. We get texts or emails to confirm a day or two before.

Really? Crumbl is that popular?

Don’t most Dairy Queens these days also server burgers and chicken? All the ones around here do.

I think there’s an interview over on i09 where Kirkman specifically addresses this, saying it’s much easier to tell a self-contained narrative arc when the whole run of the comic is written as opposed to the Walking Dead where he was still actively writing it, so it seems like they’re at least cognizant of it.  

Had this on my queue for the longest and finally binged it last week and this one after seeing season 2 was coming out. Well worth it. Thought it wasn’t for me after seeing the style of animation but the story and actors are damn good. Enough that I kept refreshing Prime wondering why I couldn’t find the first episode…

My only hope for this show is that it stays popular enough that we get the whole story but it doesn’t turn into another Walking Dead that has gone on way too long.  The fact that this sounds like we are getting four slow episodes after years and it’s only part of season 2 doesn’t give me much hope 

His death kind of spoils the joke where one is talking about about 19th century American gunboat diplomacy and the opening of Japan by force by Matthew Perry and one cuts to a picture of this Matthew Perry and says “not this one”.

And Keanu still walks among us...
