Papa Murphy’s is the only one of these that I frequent with any regularity, but I have made “discount tuesdays” a thing I participate in frequently for years.  Once you figure out how to best cook the pizza in your oven (which might not be to follow their directions) it’s a pretty solid pie.  I just wish they’d change…

It was always unclear to me why, in 1992, you would theme your new log flume ride after a 46 year old film that even the 90s you were sufficiently embarrassed by that you wouldn’t show it to someone.  Surely there was something else in the Disney inventory they could have used (like a Black Cauldron flume!)

I had both ingredients just sitting around so I tried just the 2:1 Pepsi:Milk thing.  It’s okay, vaguely reminiscent of a rootbeer float that has melted.  I imagine the coffee creamer is supposed to make it richer to double down on that, but this is not the sort of thing I would go out of my way to buy things I don’t…

I feel like the basic problem with “10 most hated christmas candies” is that I don’t think I could have named 10 christmas candies before clicking on this article.  Christmas was always more associated with baked goods (cookies, fruitcake, yule logs, etc.) than candy for me.

I feel like if the option is “spend $40 at McDonalds” or “Eat 30-40 Olives” I’m going with the latter and experiencing less regret than usual.

Don’t pay like $60 for a culinary torch.  Pay $20 at the hardware store for a regular torch and just be careful.

It just feels like “movie stars” in the sense that they’re actors whose movies you’ll see just because that person is in them, or actors who make movies better just by being in them just aren’t ever going to be especially common.  I’m not sure if most of these people in comic movies were doing other movies that they’d…

Duel is better than Minority Report or War of the Worlds IMO.  For the technological and financial limitations, Duel is incredible.

So basically they were trying the “Buy, Borrow, Die” strategy without actually owning assets to take out loans against?

Just the idea of framing the Addams’ as “outcasts” is bizarre since the entire premise of the Addams Family is that “incredibly rich aristocrats can afford to be weird, what if they were incredibly weird and because they don’t generally mix with other people they don’t really recognize this.” Specifically if Morticia…

Cereal, like a hot dog, is a sandwich.

He might be better at selling pokemon cards than he was ultimately at football.  If you wanted a guy to make a tackle six yards downfield- he was the linebacker for you.

I’ve always wondered what you’re supposed to call the place that manufactures the cheesecakes sold at the Cheesecake Factory.

“Fufu” seems genuinely hard to mispronounce.  Like, there’s not a lot of choices there.

The tragic part is that people still believe it’s worth anything at all.

Sam’s Club: https://www.samsclub.com/content/returns

Sam’s Club stuff is almost always higher quality than you get at Wal-Mart. It’s not that different than Costco’s really. The difference is usually something like “Sam’s Clubs sells tires but CostCo does not, CostCo has more organic food, etc.”  These things aren’t all that different, but if one has the mouthwash you…

I feel like the main reason one chooses one warehouse club over another has less to do with “yearly membership is $10 cheaper” or “hotdogs are cheaper” and more to do with “it’s closer to me” and “this one sells things the other one doesn’t.”

I mostly like Vegas because the Mojave is really beautiful certain times of year (like in the spring, when the flowers bloom) and it’s very cheap to fly and stay there.  I don’t even go to the strip.

I’m just not sure how you make something that works equally well on both “a $3,000 surround system” and “shitty laptop speakers.”
