Yeah the live ammo on set gets worse the more you think about it. Pro-gun people are scratching their heads at that one, let alone gun-averse people. Why have it at all? How was it anywhere near the prop armory?

Also, I don’t know if it’s accurate, but I heard there was another somewhat high-profile case (a libel case involving a book by a deceased person - Jesse Ventura vs. the sniper) where there were issues because the plaintiff said that the defendant would not have to pay any money and it instead would be paid by an…

There are still premiums that go up and often deductibles that would come out of his pocket. It’s also possible that the amount he’s being sued for exceeds his coverage and he (or his production company) be liable for anything beyond that. It’s likely there are layers of coverage to prevent that and any suit like this…

A crucial step: make an immediate direct line to any performing artist (or at least the frontperson/lead singer/etc.) available at all times so emergency responders can get the artist’s assistance to stop the show and clear the necessary areas for emergency response. As a failsafe, make the Front-of-House soundperson…

If I’m forced to pick, it’s fries first.

My dad was an older man when I was born and he retired when I was young. Since retirement meant “no full-time income” and not “live off of savings” (since he had none), he got a job as a janitor at a local theater, which meant we got in for free. So I spent my middle school years in the mid-late 90s going to the local…

Bill Burr seems to have a relative soft spot for millennials. I think this could be really good. I’m a fan and I hope he enjoys it and it does well.

I thought I’d hate it but it’s been fun the last couple of days!

The more I think about this, the harder it is not to overthink it.

Cool. One less thing to be bummed about. Let’s take the victory and move on!

As a Christian, I see great value in Ash Wednesday. To expand on all this a bit:

When I was in elementary school in California, I remember kids would bring dry ramen packets to school and eat them for breakfast.

My wife waits to find something. I would probably have a bite or two while I’m searching. My kids would forget to eat.

Cake donut. Icing. Sprinkles. It’s just good. 

I don’t really think it’s the Whopper that’s faded. I think culture turned away from fast food generally in favor of “fast casual,” and the quality of many BKs was low through that time. No one I know says they hate a Whopper, but people will say they don’t like BK. If I ask about the Whopper specifically, they…

I always add cheese. I got a whopper jr for one of my kids who didn’t want cheese and tried a bite within the last couple of months. It’s actually good without the cheese too! 

I’m glad to see this addressed for no other reason than that many people don’t have access to a gas stove/oven, so I’d be curious to see a side-by-side in real time of someone cooking the same dish on each one. It’d be kinda boring, but also it might shed some light on the tweaks you have to make when switching.

If he got the red headband from Ken (per the aminated movie, at least), maybe he got the sandals from someone else important to him. I assume he’s wearing them to honor someone he admired that fell in battle in an as yet untold story.

Never microwave a Twinkie. Unless you want to make a place and a microware smell horrible for a while.
