Yeah, more than 3 changes to the standard recipe, and you’re basically making something completely different anyway. I’d also propose an upcharge whenever your drink concoction customizations exceed the size of the drink you’ve ordered. A grande hot chocolate in a venti cup with extra extra whipped cream and drizzle…

Yeah.  Turns out, the markup on sugar and ice is even more lucrative than the markup on coffee.  Who’da thunk?

Have you tried an Americano? People in a hurry (unwilling to wait for a pour-over or a french press) could always get an Americano for the same price as drip if they were unhappy with the drip o’ the day being served. And if you do have time, upgrade the pour-over to a french press instead, it’s well worth it, you get…

First off, I hope McDonald’s or the local franchisees are taking good care of this guy. Say what you will, but this kind of brand loyalty is rare and precious.

This.  Smoke the glass....or the shaker.

Seeing alot of these show up on social media and in text, I have to conclude many of them are caused by using bad voice recognition or lazy pronunciation...and then simply not looking at the output before hitting “send/post/publish”. Sometimes I feel like I’m the only one left who proofreads his text messages before…

The Biden administration can’t to that exactly, but they could call a pow-wow of insurance executives and urge them to raise premiums or copays on people who don’t have proof of vaccination, and they could do something to the same effect with federal funds for medical programs (like the VA or tri-care recipients). As…

It’s worse than a COVID ward: no nurse in the civilized world is going to be trapped in a room breathing the same air with 30 patients for the whole day, every day.  Alot of older/poorer Florida schools don’t have a central HVAC system, they’re just recirculating room air from a glorified window unit, just like…

It’s not just Florida’s problem, unfortunately, and never has been.  Unless we can set up a blockade at the border and shutdown flights, as goes Florida, so goes the rest of the U.S.  The people popping back in forth to their timeshare, Disney, to see gran and gramps, taking cruises, etc. keep adding fuel to the fire…

So whoever put that in a report can get pinched on filing a false police report, and whoever presented it to the grand jury will get charged with perjury...right? I mean that’s how it works for all us lowly work-a-day law-abiding plebs, so shouldn’t law enforcement get held to the same standard?

At the time I thought Contagion was well-researched...this last year, I realized that research involved either a virgin priestess huffing subterranean vapors, or time travelers.

I tend to binge laundry (i.e. wait until it piles up enough and then do several loads in a row) and have found that if I clean the dryer lint filter in the middle of the cycle also, fluffy things like towels and sweatshirts at least, dry noticeably faster.

Think of REEF as the franchisee in this case. The kitchen equipment, ingredients, procedures would all be the same as a traditional Wendy’s, minus any of the dine-in facilities. In theory they should be able to run leaner and more efficient, so should be able to pass that savings on to the consumer...whether they do…

In theory, strategic ghost kitchens should help that problem, by being able to better optimize routing. Right now your driver either waits in the drive-thru queue with everybody else, or parks, walks in, and waits in that queue, or the restaurant is slammed with walk-ins, and so your order is farther down the line.…

I know a couple people suggested ejector seats, but a couple seats designated as “time out” seats set aside (or maybe in place of the flight crew jump seats) with proper anchor points and a set of locking belts/straps (e.g. psychiatric/humane restraints) seems prudent and easy enough to put in place, especially on…

Here’s two high-profile in-flight incidents (the drunk groping frat douche) on busy routes within just a week(?) ...where are the air marshals?

Between the propellant and the fumes of the individual chemical components, everybody on that plane would be in a huffing stupor for the remainder of the flight.

Can somebody please reach out to ‘lil Chet and let him know that his full-body tatt work involved a few thousand times more toxic, magnetic, and non-FDA-approved chemicals than a whole freezer full of COVID vaccine? Translate it into Hanx-speak/patois, whatever for him first.

I think that’s what makes it so dangerous. Totally changing direction is two right turns, or 180 degrees, or 648,000 seconds of arc...or in other words, the trip to Mar-a-Lago begins with a single step.

Except that the fleeing Floridians are just going to smear delta everywhere they go at this point, like explosive diarrhea on a cruise ship. Normal Florida tourism and snowbird travel has proven bad enough in getting delta variant into even the smallest and most remote communities...imagine what happens with a mass…
