I was going to make the same point. The price of AAA games has not really changed for a very long time, and has not kept up with inflation at all. If a person thinks of the number of hours they get out of a typical AAA $70 is a huge value compared to most other forms of entertainment. 

Being a non-New Yorker, I’m only familiar with this creation due to Seinfeld. Ditto for babka. 

What is the legal punishment for “attempted veganism” where you live? 

I have my own version of lazy pot pie, that while not the same, is similar. If we have leftover roast chicken or pot roast I’ll buy the two pack of Pillsbury pie crust, a can of mixed veggies, a can of diced potatoes, and a jar of either chicken or beef gravy. I put the pie crust in a pan, fill it with the above…

I’m confused as to why your legally blind father was buying a car. Was it for someone else to drive? 

In what sense are they overpriced? It’s super hard to make a profit on EVs, and Rivian is a long way from doing so. 

I feel like the term Detroit-style pizza wasn’t used until 10-15 years ago, and every chain based in Detroit tries to use it for marketing purposes. I eat Jets more often than I eat any other pizza, but I don’t think it’s true Detroit-style. Sure, it’s square, but the sauce isn’t on top of the cheese, and to me that…

Same with my Jets, although I have yet to use it. I have an insane amount of loyalty points built up at my location due to not knowing how to use them for a long time. I’m not sure if or how they can be transferred to the text-based system. 

When I was about 19 a 21 year old friend bought a jug of cheap wine that we intended to drink in a Denny’s parking lot prior to going in for some late night food. When we got there we realized we didn’t have a corkscrew. We used a bic pen to jam the cork into the jug, and it bobbed around in the wine while we passed…

It’s an interesting tidbit that she is Elvis’s granddaughter, but I don’t see what that has to do with her lack of singing abilities. My grandpa was an airplane mechanic, and I’d have no idea how to service the landing gear of a 737. 

Gremlins ranked ahead of Christmas Vacation? Really? I’m also surprised that Christmas Story is ranked as high as it is with no mention of the undeniably racist scene at the end of the movie. I still watch and enjoy the movie every year, but I definitely find that scene uncomfortable these days. 

She’s gonna listen to her fart

Eh, I don’t buy that argument. People loved the Cosby show and Bill Cosby’s character, and a jury still found him guilty. Yes, I know the conviction was later overturned. 

Holy cow, I’m not even sure where I would start. My parents were very young and didn’t have much money when I was born in 1983, and we had all kinds of terrible cars when I was growing up. The one that sticks out is the AMC Gremlin my mom drove from the time I was born until I was 5-6. My biggest memory of that car is…

They are fantastic live. AJFA is in the running for my favorite Metallica album, but I was too young to have seen them live in that era. I was born in ‘83, so I didn’t really start going to concerts until the late 90's. I’ve been a huge Metallica fan since age 14/15. The last time I saw them live I was lucky enough to…

Speaking of Metallica, I just got my two show tickets this morning and I’m stoked. I haven’t seen it covered on AV Club, but I think Metallica’s upcoming tour with two nights per city with two completely unique setlists is an amazing concept. I couldn’t be more excited. Tickets were actually not that bad by today’s…

I’m one of them, so I was also speaking from a personal perspective. 

I’m actually in that situation. We would like to move, but need to find the right balance before we sell. We bought our house for a steal during the recession in ‘09, so we should make a hefty profit no matter what, but I don’t want to buy when prices and interest rates are where they are at. If prices go down a bit…

Stuff Magazine maybe? 

I think you are forgetting that inventory may still be short because many would-be sellers are sitting on the sideline as well, either because they want to wait and get more for their houses, or because they want more favorable conditions on the buying side.
