Honestly, I had never heard the term “sammy” for a sandwich until a couple of years ago when I was listening to Doughboys, and a guest referred to them that way. The only term I had ever really heard for a sandwich was sandwich, and I was in the military, so I lived all over, and around people from all over.…

The thing is, their take on nuts isn’t controversial, it’s not liking them in baked goods that is controversial. I have never liked them in baked goods, it sucked when I was a kid, because most homemade goods had nuts in them, not as big a deal as an adult, I’m almost glad when somebody brings in cookies, brownies,…

I live in a deep red state, and while I agree that our populace is pretty bad at picking elected officials(worse than Ohio, we had Jim Inhofe in the senate for almost 30 years and somehow picked someone even worse to replace him), they’re pretty on point when it comes to food.

It was the burnt description that made me want to try it, I actually like to put cashews in the air fryer for a little while.

You’ve just been xapped!

Does Evil Dead count?

I went to the movies on Saturday, they had Barbie playing every 30 minutes, and it was the busiest I think I’ve ever seen that theater. Did I see Barbie or Oppenheimer? Neither, I saw Cobweb, great little horror flick, highly recommend.

Was it a good movie? Absolutely not, but I know I saw far worse that year, Cold Creek Manor, House of the Dead, and the In-laws remake come immediately to mind.

I’m going to stay on the 9.99 plan until they change their minds. I know it’s supposedly lower visual quality, and maybe my vision is just trash, but it looks fine to me. 

With some tweaks, sure it could take place at different time of year. But so could the movies that you named, A Christmas Story could have just as easily been about Ralphie wanting a BB gun for his birthday rather than Christmas. Ghosts could have showed up over new year’s eve to convince Ebenezer to be a better…

Well, he was the chairman of the board.

Sounds like special pleading to me. You say Christlike redemption is canonical, but then make a special exemption for A Christmas Story because of nostalgia. You might as well just say a movie is only a Christmas movie if you say it is.

John McClane is in LA because he’s visiting his family for Christmas, the movie takes place on Christmas Eve at a Christmas office party, Christmas In Hollis is a prominent song in the film, McClane specifically asked his driver to play Christmas music. Santa Clause is referenced, characters talk of hoping for…

Also, I doubt there was ever really any serious thought of actually making it with Sinatra in the lead. If he had insisted, they probably just would have bought out his contract or shelved it.

I think my favorite scene is when he’s in the empty subway station, he’s a few cents short for the token, and he begs the metro employee to let him through anyway. The guy says he could lose his job if anybody found out, and Dunne motions to the completely empty station, and asks how anyone would know. The old guy…

Also, his performance in that was so effortful.

I don’t know about Mr. Terrific, but I think since the name of the group is the Fantastic Four, Mr. Fantastic just designates Reed as the leader of the group.

Can’t believe nobody has mentioned it, but outside of Tony Stark, his portrayal of Paul Avery in Zodiac is my favorite role of his. Just an absolute delight in that movie, he should have gotten an Oscar nomination.

I really like the Roulette Nacho, the spicy ones in there seem different somehow than the regular spicy nacho.

Yes, I did look him up, I couldn’t believe it was the same guy.
