It's hard to find the grapefruit Jarritos these days.  Which is too bad, since it makes for a great paloma.

What, precisely, is the point of having a “Social Team” if they are not also the people in charge of the (verified) twitter account?

It’s still less dumb than the tomahawk steak that’s covered in gold leaf.

This only really makes sense when you consider that “these folks likely had the previous Gru/Minions films as an influential part of their childhoods” and everybody gets to pretend at least a little that the stuff they loved as a kid was “actually really good”.

I was kind of hoping more consideration would be done towards aerodynamics and the ability to accurately hit one’s target. The reason the tomato is a classic is that it’s roughly spherical and you can generally hit what you’re aiming at. Discs of Bologna or fistfuls of glop are more likely to miss.

Cheese powder is usually just actual cheese that’s been melted, stabilized (e.g. with sodium citrate) and then spray dried.

Yeah, the “is a hotdog a sandwich” thing has always been about arguing across definitions. Save for committed sandwich monists, nobody really wants to argue that a sausage is a sandwich. However if you present that sausage in the context where “bread is a handle” it clearly is.

This harkens back to a more “innocent” time when EA was the bad guy among video game publishers. Now you look at like Ubisoft and Activision and the stuff people got mad at EA for pales in comparison.

Sure, but the DM is initially skeptical about Erica’s character and when she mentions “Kukri” he doesn’t respond with “what book is that from?” or anything like that.  He doesn’t actually vet her character sheet at all!

I suspect Winona Ryder was not a D&D nerd in the 80s, and thus did not catch that Erica’s rogue using a kukri was an anachronism since there weren’t rules for the weapon in AD&D/2e until Dragon Magazine #189 in January of 1993.

I think the basic assumption of these meal kits is “you don’t cook unless you hold you’re hand” so they won’t give you the whole bottle of hoisin (which lasts in the fridge as long as BBQ sauce or ketchup), we’re going to just get you what you need.

I knew a dog once that ate a cactus I was growing as a houseplant.  Not one of those fuzzy cactuses either, full on spines.  Dogs are weird.

I was under the impression that a cat can have little a salami, but a dog should not because of the sodium content.

I confess, I clicked on this thinking I was going to get an obituary for a cat actor.

I consider Episode 9 to be worse than the Holiday Special.

If Solo being mediocre got three movies cancelled, I wonder what "Episode 9 being the worst movie in the entire franchise including the prequels” got cancelled.

I mean, pork shoulder is still a bargain at $1-$2 a pound. I can smoke an 8 pound one overnight and feed like 18 people if someone else brings buns. I’m sort of uncomfortable not doing everything when I’m hosting people, but that’s probably a me problem.

Given the choice, I'd rather have a loose meat sandwich.  Sloppy Joes are usually sweet to an off-putting degree.

I’m still sort of disappointed that number 5 didn’t give Viktor shit a la “You know, in Russian the -a suffix is just a diminutive, so Vanya is a man’s name- derived from Ivan. After all the most famous Vanya in the world was an uncle” but I get why they didn’t. 

Nobody would really want to do it. If Lunch is $10, you don’t want to spend $10 worth of Crypto on it when that could be worth $20 in an hour. Correspondingly, the business isn’t going to want to take your $10 worth of Crypto when it could be worth $2 in an hour. This is the exact reason Steam stopped taking bitcoin-…
