I have never seen a textured/popcorn wall before. Ceilings, yes, but walls?
If you need to do repairs, matching the texture is such a pain in the ass. We had a minor roof leak and water blistered the paint from behind. Without texture it would have been an easy fix — scrape off the paint, smooth in a little joint compound, then repaint.
Our house was built in the ‘40s and has (very!) hard batten and plaster walls. They’re also nowhere near flat and smooth. We used texture on them when we were remodeling, because it really helps cover up how uneven the original plaster surface is. Putting up dry wall, or—heaven forbid—re-plastering them, was…
Textured walls these days are probably flippers covering a shitty, rushed drywall job. I know ours was.
You can’t beat Beyond Meat.
Pretty much my thought’s on all these plant based meat things. Like if you want a hamburger, you want a HAMBURGER, not something hamburger like. I think it might be better to move towards tasty meat alternatives that aren’t trying to be meat.
Personally, it’s okay. Texture and taste aren’t too far off.
does anyone know a flexitarian? I’ve never met one.
the typical burger consumer is offended by the idea of fake meat, and as such choose not to purchase. it sounds unappetizing, too. wonder why it is such a failure, trying to capture a demographic that doesn’t exist
The jerky is by far the best Beyond product.
Curious if anything happened on the set of It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia. IMDB has him directing 18 episodes between 2007 and 2009 (seasons 3 through 6) and nothing after that. To date he directed the second most episodes although far behind Matt Shakman’s 43. I don’t think they have mentioned Savage much on the…
I wonder if dodo tastes good.
The Sire is adorable.
The Sire delivered the greatest wedding speech ever
Most people who have read that book would probably agree with your sentiment. Especially reading it after seeing the film.
Don’t forget huge schlong and a starlet who had to be beaten by her husband into having PIV sex because she loved oral so much!
That vaginoplasty business was extremely disturbing to a teen girl with an early feminist disposition. What better way to dramatize the problem of Sonny’s huge dick?
...and then Olivier told me “Try acting” or some shit like that!
The AV Club could just re-decorate decades of old showbiz stories. Even easier than copying stories from Deadline.
Next you’re going to tell me that Marlon Brando wasn’t the studio’s first choice for Vito, Coppola wasn’t their first choice to direct, the studio didn’t want it to be a period piece, and the novel had a subplot about vaginoplasty!
