In college I was in a fraternity and being a big guy I was nominated to be my houses rep for the pie eating contest. This was not a quantity contest but who could eat the pie the fastest. After watching a few rounds happen before mine I realized it really wasn’t about eating the pie and more about removing the cream…

Food-wise, my worst in recent memory was a few years ago, when a friend wanted to greet a friend of theirs who was returning from a long vacation abroad with a full Thanksgiving spread. I threw myself into it with my usual gusto, making tons of pies, turkey, sides... a couple of people who were going to be there…
My kids used to use banana holders! And you’re right....So, so very significantly less convenient than standalone bananas....and the kids loved em. Of course, the kids were like 6 months old at the time, so....
The fires in CA are in large part due to the way they no longer clear out forests anymore. CA forests are full of old dead trees that easily catch fire and burn hotter than live trees. Decades ago they would be cleared out and controlled burns would be done to keep things in check. Now we just let them go and when…
I would, if I thought any of the capitalists behind it were actually suffering in any meaningful capacity. The only people who are really suffering are the wage slaves.
My vote will most likely go to Hawkins/Walker. I would consider Biden if he could make concessions to the progressive movement by backing M4A or the GND, but it seems extremely unlikely he would either do so, or follow up on any promises made (not to mention calling protestors “thugs”, his insistence on not supporting…
These celebrities need to learn not to bring attention to these things. We saw it with the AT&T girl last week and now Dr. Phil. The internet stays undefeated.
A historical pirate was a horrible human being? Quelle surprise!
If the heat distribution is uneven can’t you just stir the water?
This is all so stupid. Every step in this process is completely unnecessary.
I hate these machines. I wish they’d go back to the old style fountains with limited selections. Everyone I’ve ever used puts out a bland, weak version of whatever soda you pick. If you pick a flavored option, it’s pretty much never as good as you would expect. There’s also frequently residue from other flavors mixed…
Those Freestyle machines always end up dispensing inferior quality Coke with hints of random artificial flavorings in them.
They also left the dong doodle on David Krumholtz’s face in 10 Things I Hate About You. What does that movie have in common with Days of Future Past that Splash does not? Its PG-13 rating.
My Cuban abuela once sent her son-in-law (my dad) out with her grocery list. My father got to the store and looked at the first item on the list: “UnCoven”
Who raised you? Pizza with a fork is bad enough. French fries? Why?
I have more restaurant memories than I could fit into a year’s worth of even my longest Kinja comments if I posted every day. So I’ll play lightning round, in some kind of kinda-sorta-not-really chronological order.
One good memory was taking my mother out for her 65th birthday. We went to Wolfgang Pucks, a place she always wanted to eat at. This was before the “gluten free craze”, so finding places she could eat at was hard.
I haven’t seen this movie in decades, but I’ve been meaning to give it a re-watch since my son was diagnosed on the spectrum.
