They’ve built that into the narrative in the World sequels with Wu explaining it away as something to the effect of “they were genetically engineered to look this way, because you didn’t want them to be exact clones of their real historical selves.”

Or you can just use the Merriam Webster definition and realize that Starbucks has a lot of flexibility in this area: : a flavoring made of a strong coffee infusion or of a mixture of cocoa or chocolate with coffee

Musk is such a shitty person.

I’ll allow it!

The fastest and easiest way (not necessarily the best, but that’s personal preference) is to just throw them in an air fryer.

I will eat whenever and wherever I damn well please.

“Influenced by the books” is quite a stretch. There is some very thin connective tissue, but for the most part, the show strays just as far from the books as it does from the games. It’s a damn shame too, as the early books (especially the Eric Nyland novels, as well as Contact Harvest) did a great job of setting up…

I mean, have you seen their standard steamed hams? None of their food looks appetizing in the slightest.

I’m with anyone on the “delivery costs have gotten too high” train. What exactly do those costs offset in the first place? The restaurant is already getting my money for the food I ordered to begin with. And outside of some rare edge cases, they aren’t providing the delivery vehicles. I remember years ago when pizza…

15 years? Danger Dogs have been sold by LA street vendors since the 80's, at least 35 years ago.

If I’m by myself, I rarely check the bag. It’s not that I wouldn’t want to, but I also don’t want to be that dickhead that sits at the drive thru window rummaging through the back double checking stuff when the employee is just waiting to help the next car in line. And I’m probably not going to try and feel around and…

They’re not called Fig Newtons, they’re called Pig Newtons.

The ironic thing is (re: marketing), that Coke is one of the most immediately recognizable and well known brands on the planet, and could easily do what this company is doing. I’d be curious to see how their sales and revenue would change if they just stopped all marketing for a year. It’s not like we need commercials…

Jack in Box late night > White Castle late night

I didn’t lambaste them for being a regional chain; that doesn’t bother me in the slightest. My criticism solely stems from the fact their burgers are absolutely terrible. They are mushy garbage. My point was, you could literally suggest just about any other regional or national hamburger place if you want something to…

Alright, fair enough. I admit I didn’t click through to see the additional pictures. Still overpriced as hell, but at least the price difference makes some sense now.

No. Just no. Out of all the fast food burger places, why would you punish anyone by sending them there? Steamed hams are absolute garbage. You could have said In N Out, Whataburger, Culvers, Fatburger, or literally ANY other burger chain in the country. But you chose violence...

I think it would be the opposite for someone like me. It would just be another thing I have to monitor, manage, etc. Like another chore on top of the many chores and errands that already make me want to take a nap. I’m definitely of the mindset that my time is more valuable to me, so I’d rather just pick up a few…

Yeah, I don’t know how they justify the $30 price increase (50%) for the compactor scene when it’s only an increase of 20% in piece count.

I’d drive through one with a loaded 18 wheeler, if that’s what you mean.
