“This smells like the bathroom in every major league ballpark, in a good way.”

How’s it going, everyone?

Wow thanks for the flashback to college. I had an ex who would say this all the time. Simpson’s quote?

My go-to: Some variation of whole wheat (I like Arnold a lot), creamy peanut butter, apricot jam, with curry powder, cayenne, and black pepper. I like mine with more peanut butter than jelly.

I’ve heard people make this claim before, and you’re right it’s absurd. The premise is that after The Chronic, Death Row was such a dominant force on the charts that nobody was buying anything out of New York until Biggie came along. It’s a very Puffy-centric claim...

Rye bread and pumpernickel. The two breads that can crush thick slices of raw onion.

COVID has taken away onions and relish from Costco’s hot dogs.  I miss the Polish, but there’s no way I’m eating a hot dog without onions and relish.

Lobster and latkes. Fuck the salad you know you need. These are the end of end times.

I’m a big fan of “keep the equipment clean”.
