Right. To be clear, nobody's saying I'll never do Pickle Dinner. Nobody's even saying that it won't happen multiple times.

I mean...  That sounds like something I’d do, but it also sounds like something I’d regret since my stomach complains if I consume too much acidic food at one time.

Gonna get a cocktail to try this out. Expect full report later.

If I were not married and expected to come up with “real” meals for someone else, the vesper board would comprise all of my meals.  Not that I’d call it a vesper board.

I’ve said at least twice now that you’re “my kind of food writer”, but I never actually explained that it means I appreciate your occasional wholehearted embrace of pure junk food ingredients. This, however, crosses some vague line that I can’t quite define. I just can’t with bologna, and I’m not sure why that is or…

I miss John Lithgow and Christmas 2.

Ugh. Back in my day we had to sit while the artist painted a portrait and believe me, it wasn’t easy maintaining an—

Honestly, I only know one brand, but it’s also the brand my friends across the pond eat: Heinz, in the blue-green can. Kroger might be your better bet; a cursory look at Walmart’s website indicated that they’re out of stock. I’ve bought them in bulk from Amazon before but I bet you can find them locally.

...and if you’re not in the mood for sausages (or if you are but you’re also extra hungry), don’t forget the humble baked beans on toast, preferrably topped with sharp cheddar cheese. And don’t buy sugary, American baked beans; you'll be glad you paid too much for the British ones in tomato sauce.

I'm not optimistic, but t might be worth a try if you can make an argument that the item was promised by a certain date, and that you’ve been in contact with the person, trying to come to a resolution. Crowdfunding sites tell you upfront that the product is not guaranteed, so my gut instinct is that your bank might…

Wait, am I the only one?

You had me at "viral meat stick".

Does this system allow the president to send anything other than text? Because after this morning’s Stormy Daniels/“mushroom” news I’m worried that he’s got something to prove.

Thought I’d recently read the peanut butter-and-pickles-sandwich post, but I Googled it, and it turns out I’d read somebody else’s post (I don’t recall where, but it was all about how peanut butter and pickles—like popcorn at the movies—was born during the Great Depression). Doesn’t matter. Looked up your xoJane post…

I did not have an N64 and did not enjoy GoldenEye, but I got roped into lots of games. I never bothered to get good at it, but I learned pretty quickly that it doesn’t matter if you’re carrying any weapons, as long as you pick Oddjob and maintain a crouch at all times.

The babe with the power.

How exactly did the voice pronounce the word “grille” that you knew there was an E on the end?

Hopefully Musk has some $100 bills around to wipe his tears with.

Not having actually used a G3, the main thing I remember about it is that Apple got a lot of PR mileage by equating beige cases with the world of boring-ass, button-down, cube farm PCs.

Probably the wrong time to point this out, but nice job on the use of italics to denote titles, particularly in the case of R&FM.
