Allison wins with the first 2 picks. She could have picked like sandpaper and motor oil and I’m still going to go with whoever has mustard and raw onions (I would just leave those other things off the actual sandwich.)

I mean “tip double the tax amount” is a way to save time in figuring how much to tip, not a way to save money.

So one of the reasons I became a fan of Bioware to begin with was my fondness for single player RPGs with choice and consequence and well written NPCs. I simply do not see how that sort of thing is compatible with a “live services” approach.

Feels like we can account for the effect simply by giving women awards, a plan I support.

I will say I find the Epic Store’s lack of “community features” as an argument for using that service instead of Steam. I find those generally detract from the experience.

I mean, I’ve never put any of my pots or pans in the dishwasher. As something which gets real hot in the course of using it, I’m not really relying on the dishwasher to disinfect anything. So as long as I can get “whatever is stuck to it” off, I’m good.

I don’t really like the idea of playing after the ending in New Vegas, since the actual ending refers to far reaching consequences of your actions (beyond what’s reasonable to implement in a mod- certain locations would have been destroyed in the battle that leads to the ending, important characters go off and do…

I’m just going to call hamburgers “beef discs” now.

I didn’t even know you could take out soup. When I’m feeling crummy, I drag myself to the Pho joint and sit there miserable and eat my delicious soup. I could have been taking it home?

Gearbox is not wrong to take the money (and a bigger cut of sales) for their game.

I mean, it’s not a terrible idea. Classic problem with all forms of stuffed chicken breast is that unless you have a perfect seal then you’re going to spring a leak when cooking. So if you never have to flip the thing, then you can rely on gravity to keep your cheesy goodness contained.

Unequivocally: Any option user may select to make the game more enjoyable is a positive thing to include.

Is this a category error? Like a taco is not a specific dish, it’s a format for a vast array of dishes. Pretty much any combination of tortilla, protein, and salsa is a taco (add garnishes if you want). It would be like saying “sandwich” is the state food.

It’s kind of surprising they have taken this long to do this, since “beans” are sort of the classic protein source from plants (tofu is beans) and they are also *all over* both mexican and tex-mex food. Like really all they had to do was ensure they have some beans with no meat in them, use those beans, and omit the…

Counterpoint: the best cole slaw has no mayonnaise in it. I grew up eating the mayo slaw, I hated it, I still hate it, and I thought I hated “cole slaw” as a result. Then I learned about vinegar slaw and, well, look at the username.

So are they going to sell cans, or could one hypothetically purchase 44 ounces of Red Bull as part of a terrible series of choices?

I miss when Bioware made single player RPGs. Hopefully EA lets them do that again.

I mean, I’ve had Philly Cheesesteaks that were evocative of if not largely indistinguishable from the real thing where the meat was replaced with mushrooms (which are “meaty” tasting due to the high proportion of guanylates- just add MSG and you’re there). So why not?

I can’t imagine any kind of curation someone would implement on purpose would be worse than “no curation”.

Linked article says “more locations worldwide by 2025" and I have to say that feels like kind of a weird deadline to set. I know relatively little about the international licensed restaurant business but it seems like the next step after “2nd location” is “3rd location” which should take a lot less than six years. Are…
