I’m not sure it’s mad science; it’s figuring out what people will want to eat and maximizing profits in doing so. But what restaurants provide is convenience, not literally addictive food. No adult has ever felt McDonald’s actually makes good food, but they go there because the food is fast, cheap, and reliable. If…

KING BEAUREGARD STYLE CHEDDAR BISCUITS - serves me, make your own

“My main issue is that I can make the same thing or something better at home for less money.”

King Beauregard sez: best burgers anywhere can be had at Red Robin. That’s a chain worth visiting, if you visit no other.

I don’t know why I do that sometimes, but at times it seems like the right person for the job is third. I think it has something to do with content that is less about “oh hey guys, this is like what I totally feel” and more about “here are facts that apply to all of us equally”. And cheddar biscuits are very very…

I don’t feel any need to. It should be noted that I consider Bisquick a nearly indefensible indulgence already, and adding cheese to it is really pushing it. Butter would be unthinkable for me. (Not saying you shouldn’t if you want to!)

I had high hopes for the OWS kids, but it turns out they were more interested in protesting than in effecting change. The Parkland kids seem to be a much better bunch and I bet they’ll vote reliably and well.

ALSO! I have found that there is a pancake mix that is actually good for you, with 14g protein in every 190 calorie serving. It’s these things:

“But isn’t that the essence of good ‘murrican movies?

I keep posting the same comment week after week, because it keeps applying: I want to grab “Arrow” by the scruff of its neck, point its face at “Black Lightning” and scream at it: “See what they’re doing? Be more like them!”

The problem with “Not All White People”, I opine, is that it tries to shift focus away from the fact that a great many white people do a given harmful thing, to the fact that some white people don’t feel the criticisms apply to them. Which is totally messing up the priorities here. If we were talking about…

Holy lord, I love that article of yours.

Maybe review a movie, or at least talk about themes in that movie that matter to you. Be opinionated!

We’re gonna have more fun than a barrel of crackers.

You know what the infuriating part of “Homeward” is? The parts where Picard et al are completely out of character, add nothing to the plot. Just say that Picard was unable to beam any of the other natives up because of atmospheric interference, but Nikolai’s village could be saved because he’d set up transporter…

You keep returning to “social work” as if I ever argued that superheroes should be social workers. I never called for that; NOBODY called for that. My argument is that they should prefer to talk before throwing punches, you know, like we expect anyone who’s not brain-damaged to do.
