Lots of nostalgia at play here. (Nothing wrong with that, nostalgia can be delicious.)

Aimee picked two of my favorites: Entenmann’s Chocolate Donuts and Ding Dongs.

Shane is the one wrestler that Vince knows, absolutely, won’t defect to AEW.

“Why should I put any time into building up someone who is just going to take all of my investment to benefit my competition?”--is the short sighted thinking of Shane’s Dad.

Growing up in Central Wisconsin, we simply called it “Smear”—but we pronounced it “Schmear”—which, growing up in an area demographically unlikely to have a proper deli, would later confuse me when bagels became part of my life...

Never called it what Drew called it—though, not for any altruistic reasons... I mean, this

Pitchers have to wear black hats (for “batter’s eye” reasons.)

Ex-Sconnie living in Seattle now...and I have a wonderful friend back in Wisconsin who occasionally sends me bottles of the real Stadium Sauce (I don’t ask him how he gets it...but it is from the concessions company that I believe still serves Miller Park.)

I hadn’t had Stadium Sauce since my early teens...and eating a

I’d have been 22...and more likely to have been giving out candy before going to dj at a club than trick or treating.

...but sure!  :)

I was exactly like that for most of my life. Even if you tried to crush the pill and put it into water/apple juice/whathaveyou, I couldn’t do it.

Finally, when I was given some antibiotics that didn’t come in a liquid form, I figured that I could sneak them into the opened pocket of a Chef Boyardee Mini-Ravioli. Seal

I kept waiting for sour cream & onion (or, gasp, ranch) and they never came...

If you order mozz sticks, there’d BETTER be some marinara to dip ‘em in.

I’m with you on that one!

Love me some pressed sugar candies. So “yay” for Pez, BUT...

My choices:
Sweetarts
Spree
Bottle Caps
Smarties (American, not the citrusy M&Ms that you get in UK/Canada)

Do they still make Wacky Wafers?

Nerds are all right, too.

I’ve never asked for a Seattle Dog. I don’t like cream cheese, full stop...(and, full disclosure, I’m not adventurous when it comes to hot dogs.) It sounds horrifying (but good on ya if you like ‘em.)

Can’t answer for the people I know as to why they’ve avoided them (other than they sound like a nightmare)—my point is

I was a nightclub dj and, more recently, a stand-up comedian...so, I’ve spent most of my life leaving bars at late(early) hours.   :)

And I’ve certainly had some late night food cart hot dogs (though, as I’m aging out of all that, not many of them lately.)

I’ve never had a Seattle dog. And nobody I know has ever had one.

Now playing

Here’s a video where Mikey Chen stops at both Terry Black’s and Franklin’s (including a good idea of what “the line” at Franklin’s is like...)

I’ve lived in Seattle for 27 years. I’ve never eaten a Seattle Dog. I’ve never known anyone who has eaten a Seattle Dog.

...and I love hot dogs.

I’ve always assumed that Seattle Dogs are something that are made for tourists, to give them a “Can you believe this shit?” story to take home with them...while the rest of us

My wife’s all-time favorite baseball player is Raul Ibañez.

...and yes, she likes baseball. 

Many great answers here...but is it pedantic to add “Fawlty Towers” to the discussion?

It is odd that Leinie’s is known nationwide for their shandy. That wasn’t what they were known for back in the day, back in the Midwest.

I live in Seattle now, but I spent many years in Eau Claire, Wisconsin...and Leinenkugel was basically West Central Wisconsin’s Rainier.

And, my beer lovin’ friends still champion

The Mariners shoot off red fireworks during the “rockets red glare” line and then some reports during the “bombs bursting in air” part.

With the way the M’s season is going, it’s probably the only reason anybody still comes to T-Mobile Park.  

Looks like “9 1/2 Weeks” will need a rewrite...

...and in a t-shirt and khakis, no less.
