But the council is called the “National Hot Dog and Sausage Council.” They apparently hold hot dogs in a separate category.

Apparently nothing?

We need to know. There must be a plan for this, right?

I’d be curious to see how it’d work if you took the same amount of ground beef to make one triple cheeseburger and one double cheeseburger, then did a blindfolded taste/texture test.

You know, Josh Scott, the owner of JHS (a guitar effects pedals company), was recently in NYC buying Shake Shack burgers for anyone who wanted to talk effects. His Instagram is full of people tagging In-N-Out while on pictures of burgers and other foods that are decidedly NOT In-N-Out. Apparently he found their…

Update: The man accuses the animation firm of plagiarizing ideas from a novel he’d written. 

But did you or did you not go to bed with a humidifier on?

What about Spontaneous Human Combustion? Maybe it’s less like a gun and more of a flamethrower (but Not A Flamethrower).

A BBC article said the suspect, a male, was muttering things about getting “ripped off” by the company. It also said he has no employment history with them.

My dad loved it.

I was at the Johnson Space Center over the weekend. They have the Saturn V there that would have sent up Apollo 20 before the program was scrapped due to the Vietnam War (which probably gives more context for Aldrin’s post-Lunar crisis). Standing at the tip and looking back (“down”) to the engines, as well as standing…

Is it weird that I found reading this a bit moving? Maybe it’s from the loss of family. But there’s something kinda beautiful about this process that seems to ease you in to death.It also strikes me that it’s almost like an airlock with the beyond.

I must have missed it but I don’t see anyone saying “it can’t be racist because he was talking about inferior governments, not people groups.” I would have figured they’d have said that first.

It is possible to both love something and want it to be better than it is. 

Food: it brings people together.

GPB probably won’t ever get a clear answer. He’s not likely to stop playing MM2, he not going to intentionally steer people away from Nintendo. Even if Nintendo wanted to tell him, they might not be able to pinpoint if their system is half as difficult as it appears to be. Speculation is fun, maybe even cathartic, but…

It seems like we’re so caught up in the progress of our era that we are letting ourselves believe the future is a linear trend upward. How many times in the past have we seen that civilizations collapse, that morals and ethics shift, that knowledge is lost? And yet we see the push toward AI and human/computer…

The word “substitute” is key. Perhaps a poor example, but when my wife gets a taco salad at a fast food Mexican place, she doesn’t want the ground beef or whatever sub-par chicken they have to offer. She wants refried beans. The way we order that now is to get the cheaper option and substitute beans for the meat…

As a kid who never learned to swim and had really bad sleep paralysis, the bathtub scene in What Lies Beneath was hard to get through.

Sorry but I don’t understand what you’re saying.
