If it must be a restaurant it should be fast casual, where you pay first so exits can be made without involving waitstaff.

Too much opportunity for injury.

Gee those taxes would be an awful good way to fund some social services, student loan forgiveness, and/or A New Green Deal.  

I like pistachio.  It’s pretty popular in Italy, so it makes sense it gets picked up as popular in NY, NJ and CT.

I have not been out that much since getting vaccinated, but those I interact with seem to always be bracing for the worse.  I was at a hotel this weekend and breakfast was delayed 10 minutes and the woman at the front desk flinched every time someone came into the lobby. 

To me he seems like just another white dude who wants to make everything about him. He’ll make you laugh, sure, but only because he wants your attention on him and not yourself. You could do drugs with him or stop doing drugs with him but he’s going to choose which it’s going to be (and where you’re gonna do it.) He’s…

I do not believe anyone’s second favorite flavor is green tea.

I’ve probably been drunk enough to wander into an unlocked restaurant, but I’ve never been drunk enough to be unable to identify dumplings or to cook them in cold water.  

I DON’T KNOW. Even James’ recap gets it wrong.

It was pretty unsatisfying. The thing about connecting it to everything else robs the character you’re watching of some agency and stakes. If Mephisto had shown up in WandaVision and Wanda was only being manipulated, it would have destroyed her agency and the meaning of everything that she learned in Westview. The…

The multiverse does and has always existed. All the actions of the TVA are doing is preventing a single Nexus event that would create a multiverse that enables some multiverses to destroy each other.

Very disturbing people don’t recognize anti-semitism when writing about politics. 

Oh sure now we can recognize streaming.

Some traffic authorities have made zipper merge the law but it hardly applies everywhere. In my state the person in the persistent lane has no responsibility to yield right-of-way to an incoming vehicle.   They act like it too, so attempting a zipper merge will leave you sitting at the end of your lane praying for…

I worked at a summer camp during summers in college and I spent a lot of time in the kitchen because I didn’t have the most patience for kids and because I could follow directions and the cooks all liked this.

but why, december is so far!

Oh shit, you’re right. I do that a lot.  Yeah, I have nothing to hold against Courtney.  

This is fine. Nothing of consequence really happened in that movie. Birds of Prey moved Harley’s character arc along and decoupled her from the Joker. Boomerang and Waller had no arc. The one lingering thread maybe is Rick Flagg’s relationships with June (and any resulting change with that of Waller because of it) but…

Did you see the reboot of Clash of the Titans though? Everyone involved in that deserves to be ashamed of themselves but Gemma Arterton managed a pretty good performance so it can be done.

I suspect there were contracts at play.
