MSG is perfectly safe. It’s history of being used without issue in Japan for over a century shows this.

“You... you rem... ah, remember that noise... um, Galaga, uh, made when you put in... put a quarter in?”

Yep. Gilmore Girls, Simpsons, etc, all had stories that existed and worked outside of the pop culture references. It wasn’t their raison d’etre like it is RP1 or (later especially) Family Guy. Remove the references from the former and they still work. Remove them from the latter, and well, there’s nothing you can do,…

Also, not getting the “reference” (at least in the Simpsons case) rarely if ever took away from the humor. You could enjoy the Simpsons without ever having heard of Citizen Kane, or The Godfather, or anything else.

Look at The LEGO Movie. It’s 90 minutes of references, but it’s still a wonderful movie.

At least in the case of MST3K or early Simpsons, the references were never the focus of the gag - they were more of a seasoning that only the most eagle-eyed of observers (or people who watched DVD commentaries) picked up on.

I know a close friend of mine that’s nonbinary and queer ended up working at…

Mexico passed us up several years ago. Time to renegotiate NAFTA.

You’re a real ally. Thanks.

Right on. Hopefully next time she’ll think twice about wishing people well.

I’m in a similar situation to your wife. Of course it’s easier to stick to your principals when it concerns shitty pizza and not tasty chicken.

Papa John tweeted something racist.

Turns out catering to bigots is a winning strategy. You get their undying loyalty, and most of the other side won’t care.

It’s amazing how many “woke” people don’t care about gay rights when they’re being asked to sacrifice something as minor as a fast food chain. Fuck everyone who claims to support gays and eats at Chick-fil-a or supports women but shops at Hobby Lobby.

It’s not just opinions. When I give people money, and they in turn give that money to causes I vehemently oppose, I’m knowingly giving money to those causes. I’m not okay with that.

Lovers of the chain’s chicken have ether forgotten about that earlier controversy or don’t care
