My friends and I were discussing regional differences for certain objects and I learned some people call all sneakers “tennis shoes.” That to me is akin to calling all soda “coke.” I get it, but it’s nonsensical.

He looks like the dad from Home Alone.

I prefer the black steel pans by Spring USA. JB Prince stocks them in several sizes and they are the best I’ve used. Although they’re a bit pricey, they come with a lifetime warranty for the pan body, which I’ve used before. They were a bit annoyed a restaurant (rather than a home cook) was claiming the warranty but…

American cheese has the best melting properties (due to the chemicals that emulsify it). Melts quickly, doesn’t break, stays melted for longer without seizing up. This makes it a good choice on burgers, grilled cheese, and other “American” sandwiches.

Nixtamalizing corn adds a significant flavor component that is crucial to many Mexican dishes. Now, if you’ve only had mass produced corn tortillas from your supermarket or bad taco joints that use the same, then I agree with you - those things taste like cardboard.

What exactly is a PED? All professional athletes are on a shit ton of drugs that enhance their performance (because they wouldn’t consume them otherwise). A league or federation then decides that one chemical or another enhances performance TOO much and bans it. But the other substances they consume are still…

James Dolan. Wouldn’t mind popping Lucchino too.

Terrible. But you get a star because your typo(?) on “thing” made me reread it in an Eastern European/Russian accent, which made it somehow funnier. I don’t know why.

Are you suggesting that your SIL not only knows she’s ignorant, but desires ignorance for the next generation(s)? That is truly insane.

Eh, this is a weak ass take. The MVP is, for all intents and purposes, the Best Player award. You should be arguing to change the name of the award. Judging who is more valuable because his team hired a worse coach or has a worse backup QB is ridiculous. Might as well change the award to “Best Player on Worst…

I don’t know why they don’t stop and think, just for a second, if it was possible to easily contain and restrict humans’ need to copulate, we likely wouldn’t have survived till now.

and, to most people, “support” also means only things that don’t infringe on their right to do whatever the fuck they want, whenever the fuck they want. else, all bets are off.

I think I’m being very rational and debating exactly what the Federal government can do legally, in what ways they can use their influence, etc. I’m not saying it’s impossible, but highly improbable that Congress would authorize spending on the scale necessary for federal agencies to raid and prosecute tens of…

Legalizing something heinous like segregation would get the Federal government to do some extreme shit to stamp that out. Compared to marijuana, depending on the president, they either give zero fucks or occasionally fart in that direction.

I thought Cassian was an awesome character and I like the way they show that even the good guys have to pull some shady, black ops shit. Also General Draven was a contemptible human being and I enjoyed hating the Rebel bureaucracy a little. Hell, fuck the Rebellion’s leadership, Luke, Han and Chewie were outsiders…

Depending on the crispiness of the wing, I sometimes will grasp the little flap of skin that overhangs on the flat with my teeth and rip off that entire delicious side of skin and eat that first, then do the method shown in the video.

Well, I’m arguing it’s neither financially nor logistically feasible for the DEA to raid individuals growing 6 plants, which can be done with a tent inside of a standard walk-in closet. I also doubt they could compel local law enforcement to do their bidding and federal prosecutors would probably have a difficult time…

Weed is here to stay in Colorado. Even if Trump sends the DEA to shutter every shop and commercial grow in CO, weed will still exist in massive quantities because the law that legalized it, in addition to allowing growers to apply for a recreational license, also allowed for every resident over 21 to grow up to 6…

You agreed with the OP, who tried to make this about the lazy, entitled applicant.

You’re looking at it from the wrong perspective. Hannah is not telling some kid who’s looking to break into a tough industry to get bent. She is telling an organization, owned by a billionaire, itself worth over $1 billion, with yearly revenues in the hundreds of millions, who still want free or grossly underpaid…
