I mean, the only parts of Tamriel we haven’t set an Elder Scrolls game in since there was an Xbox are the High Rock/Hammerfell Area, the Summerset Isles, Elsweyr/Valenwood, and Argonia.  If you were just setting odds, you would guess they’d set the next game in the area where the most humans are anyway.

Famously, in mathematical circles at least, there is no one way to eat corn, and indeed how you feel it’s natural to eat corn might correspond to other priors you have.  As an Analyst, I eat corn in spirals starting at one end and turning the corn as I progress down the ear.  This is honestly very similar to how I’d…

Fallout + PVP never sat well with me, since the unifying characteristic of pretty much all Fallout games is that the player character is the person who is above the foolish and self-destructive cycles that define other wastelanders. Like you should be the person who’s smart enough to not ruin the parts of the world…

The central problem with rebooting the Munsters, which is decidedly more blue collar than the Addams family (I mean, Herman has a job and financial woes whereas Gomez is old money), is that nonetheless they live in a mansion because no other domiciles are spooky. But in 2021 if we’re trying to do a “blue collar family…

They made that joke (I read that book too young to get the allusion) and pointed out that it’s kind of hard to swallow a cherry stem surreptitiously, so you’re better off excusing yourself and disposing of it away from the table.

“Penn and Teller’s How to Play With Your Food” taught me that the way you do this with company is that you previously tie a cherry stem (that you nab away from the table) with your fingers, to look exactly like you want it to. Then you keep it tucked away in your gums or out of the way, so when you pop the cherry stem…

As someone with a shellfish allergy, I have long known that shrimp, crab, lobster etc. are essentially just “sea bugs” and I had no more reason to trust “land bugs” than I do “sea bugs”.

I, for one, am glad that Chick-Fil-A no longer has a reason to exist since there’s like a half dozen fast food restaurants that match their quality for chicken sandwiches (and aren’t as overtly evil).

Gaiman’sDesire might be the single most nonbinary thing ever depicted in media, what with existing everywhere on the spectrum of masculine to feminine depending on their feelings at the time.

What is even the point of food challenges if not “cheap publicity”. If the person who attempts to tackle your gargantuan whatever in the specified time limit then subsequently posts about it on social media where they have a following, that’s even more publicity for the same cheap.

Raising Cane’s, because “3 chicken fingers on a bun” is kind of a BS sandwich.

A restaurant where people will go in, sit down, and a server gives them a menu can do a better version of basically anything than a fast-food/casual restaurant can do (with a higher cost of course).  But I’m not really that optimistic of Chili’s here.

Depicting an event that is political is itself political. Are you depicting it critically or uncritically? Does the narrative favor one side of the conflict, or is every side depicted evenly and fairly? Does the story make assumptions like “War can be justified” which are themselves political.

I never picked up a PS4 (or an XBone) and I would like another console just for like streaming and playing Blu-Rays on top of whatever games, and right now buying the older generation one seems pretty silly. So I would like to be able to find a PS5 (or whatever they’re calling the new Xbox) someday.

If I could find a seeded watermelon at the local store, I might try my hand at making some.  Remember when watermelons had seeds?

It’s pretty funny when restaurants (generally big national chains) pitch “come here and eat a bunch of stuff in a pile that we assemble in a bowl” since “eat a foodpile from a bowl” is what I, and I assume many of us, do at home.

I mean Gloomhaven was initially based on Pathfinder, and in the second edition release of that game they also dropped the “race” nomenclature- being an elf or a dwarf or whatever is now your ancestry (as in - your parents were dwarves, their parents were also dwarves, you grew up around dwarves.)

Help me understand why “it’s like [identifiable product] but it gets you high” products need to look almost exactly like the identifiable product in question.

Just seeing someone say “I want you to take something good, and then ruin it” is a real red flag.  It’s possible that the person is just ignorant about meat (e.g. the “well” in “well done” refers to “do a good job”), so it’s not an immediate deal breaker but it if you’re ordering your steak overcooked, you would…

Most of the identity of the Addams were codified by the 1960s TV series, which established that Gomez was Castilian (ergo Spanish).
