Still pretty confused about why anybody would follow a brand on twitter. Especially a brand for an especially bad company.

Yeah, I can go to the grocery store at the time when there aren’t a lot of people there.  If you let me know which flights are going to have like only 6 people on them I’ll be sure to take those ones.

I haven’t had one since 2014 or so, and my memories of it were primarily “disappointment”.  But honestly, as far as marketing stunts for McDonalds as far as I’m concerned it beats tie-in meals for celebrities I’m only vaguely aware of.

I’m going to do my best to keep thighs from becoming trendy (and hence expensive) by continuing to not order from Wingstop and just cooking my chicken thighs at home.

I already voted, so I wonder if there’s any way I could just go into a medically induced coma for like a month.

I will never install an app in order to buy coffee, or tacos, or groceries.

Perhaps I don’t really understand big manufacturing, but it feels like “ginger” is not especially expensive and that you could afford to put more of it in.

Would “freeze the whole batch” be a reasonable thing? I’m not really functional in the morning, and can only really be summoned to the kitchen out of frustration (like when other people don’t know how to poach an egg.)

The best ratio of taste to pain-in-the-butt is like the 10-15 pound range anyway.

Even after the fall of LucasArt he still made like “the Cave” and “Thimbleweed Park” neither of which were huge. But “the guy who created something would prefer to not let it fall down the memory hole” seems wholly reasonable.

Disney, as a side effect of buying Star Wars, now owns Monkey Island and Maniac Mansion. They will never do anything with them. Ron Gilbert, the creator of both of those things, has been trying to buy back his original IP since 2016 or so, but Disney has no reason to even bother negotiating.

I mean, to be honest any time of day I would rather eat a meatball sub than “stuffed cheesecake french toast” or “tres leches pancakes” or “churro waffles.”

I’m not really a breakfast person. My favorite breakfast spot, when I would go places and eat there, my favorite breakfast order was rice, beans, eggs, and red chile braised pork.  My personal opinion is that the standard western breakfast canon skews way too sweet.  So I would kind of like to order off the lunch menu…

The problem is “eight steps” is too many steps when I want breakfast.  If I’m wide awake and ready to cook, I know of like eight ways to poach an egg, but the coffee takes a while to start working.

Man, the political of that whole Southern Caucasus region is really complex and fraught with peril (in large parts because it was used in a proxy war for centuries), if I were a large multinational corporation I would not want to take a stand there.

I would imagine that the dog toy is clearly parodic in nature.  I know a lot of people over the years have sued MAD magazine but I hope we’d have gotten this out of our system.

I’m in month 8 of “never leaving the home except to reprovision or walk the dog” so I really don’t want to be shamed for what’s in my pantry.

What I want out of a “McDonalds breakfast” is the egg cylinder cooked in the ring mold for the McMuffin.  Is that so hard to make an all day thing?  I’m sure it would be fine on a hamburger or chicken sandwich.

I give away Pearson’s Salted Nut Rolls and Swedish Fish solely for the novelty bonus. The kids aren’t going to get 2 of those in their bag, unless they just take two of mine.

So the culinary anthropological role of pie is- what do you do with fruit, which is delicious, but isn’t like “the best and most aesthetically appealing” and you want to use it up before it rots, if not make pie.  I would guess that “pie” being part of a culinary identity is more to do with “availability of large…
