What’s funny is if some celebrity chef did that, except they called the mayo aioli and made it themselves by whipping quail egg yolks with meyer lemon juice, sharp dijon, and olive oil, it would fit in perfectly with the “guacamole” recipes in this article.

We have one, it’s youtube. Every talk/sketch show these days is optimised for youtube. They have sketches that are just long and context-free enough to watch in short bursts on your phone.

The whole thing was weird. I mean, youtube exists for that. Was Quibi trying to compete with youtube? Which did just fine during the pandemic. 

I remember a review at the time (maybe AVClub?) that said the Shrek franchise was updated Flintstones. The entire point is “I get that cultural reference! That’s a thing I’m familiar with!” That’s the whole joke. And “What if cliched stuff in a setting that doesn’t support the cliche?” I only saw the first Shrek…

I think Into the Spider-verse did it. It’s the only Spider-man movie I’ve seen but it absolutely nailed it. 

And then everyone in the McDonalds clapped! And the cashier who used the unconscionable slur “male Karen” was fired on the spot! And the CEO personally gave me free McDonalds for life! And that CEO’s name was Albert Einstein!

What for? Is it chemically different from cane sugar?

No kidding. You know how companies process the pure sugar out of some fruits (usually pear and grapes) so they can say sweetened with fruit and no sugar added and give the foods a health halo? Is that what this chocolate is trying to do?

Because it’s the kickoff of “awards season” and we’re desperate to talk about it. It’s the playoffs for movies. We have several rounds, and Oscars are the Super Bowl/World Series.

What the hell is cocoa juice? I assume the 99% stuff, with only a tiny bit of sugar, is legally chocolate. And 100% cocoa powder is chocolate. And 100% cocoa nibs. So what’s basically a bar made out of nibs, isn’t? 

Ok I like the idea but it seems like a perpetual middle aged fantasy that teenagers will be in love with their mothers’ music, aesthetic tastes, and way of expressing themselves. I’m sure kids would start a zine and talk about how great and feminist and cool their mothers were. How they wish they lived in the…

Yearbook superlatives didn’t exist in my school, I think they were an American thing?

I assume candy is exclusively an impulse buy, too. You see it in the store, you pick one up. Now seems like a good time, honestly, because supermarkets and drugstores and convenience stores are the only places still open, plus the Valentines/Easter candy is in all the stores and that’s when the big candy companies…

What happened with Crystal Pepsi? Thy ran the ads for two solid years. I can probably still recite them from memory. Was the product no good? Don’t all sodas taste basically the same?

The high-end chocolates never have rice crisps. Or peanut butter. Or pretzels. Why can’t those artisanal truffle places do those flavours?

They worked either on his shows or in his industry, were way less powerful than him and one bad word from him could have seriously derailed their careers. That’s subordinate as far as I’m concerned. 

Those are cakes. Sweet breads are cakes or scones, I will not be taking questions at this time. 

I don’t think so. He’s not really relevant outside 90s kids wanting to shock their dads, is he? Absolutely nothing is more dated than something that was once a controversy.

I went to high school with one girl who was really into him. I was a complete straight edge good girl, but even I saw Manson as a try hard. Oh, yes, piercings, makeup, you rebel you. The whole goth, goth-adjacent, thing even then seemed like a moral panic from adults. At the same time as Kurt Cobain and Courtney Love,…

Didn’t he also agree to say that it was he, not Louis CK, who masturbated in front of female subordinates at work, back when it was heavily rumored it was CK but it hadn’t been confirmed?
