He should just be in the background of a shot like Conan on How I Met Your Mother.

I have some Kerrygold at home now. It’s good, more flavorful than normal butter for sure, but still not as potent as margarine. I’m not knocking either spread—both butter and margarine are good in my opinion. I certainly use real butter more often than margarine now, and that’s usually the Great Value brand because…

I’m guessing the last time we were at DEFCON 5, if ever, was some time in the mid-90s.

I grew up on margarine and then one day I put real butter on my Eggos and did not like it. It might have been unsalted butter or something. But margarine has more flavor and for a kid, that butter was not a move in the right direction. As an adult, I like both. I still loathe Miracle Whip, though. I consider that the…

Sunrise cereal. Yet another great thing from 1999, but unfortunately one that didn’t last. I lament it here, yet again.

That’s fair.

I understand being upset with Twitch for not shutting it down immediately, but this seems primarily to be a Lenovo problem.

There’s a lot to look forward to, especially if we get Donald and Yvette back. I’d legitimately enjoy seeing Chevy back on it again, too. I understand the BTS BS made it really hard and he probably doesn’t want to be remembered as Pierce Hawthorne (even if he did played the part funnier than anyone else probably could…

Maybe the tostada of my youth will come back too!

An amusing observation: Dollar Tree and Wal-Mart are ranked higher than Apple.

There’s a Walmart near me with one locked plexiglass box in the pharmacy area, and they keep switching what goes in it back and forth between contraceptives and baby formula.

A Charmin sketch leading to Charmin ad deosn’t bother me even if it was intentional. TV exists to sell ads and TV is losing a lot to online content, so whatever. It’s not evil and it’s a way to keep their employees paid.

What I appreciate most here is the follow-through. No more teasing it. They made a joke, it became a real desire, and they’re fulfilling it. Of course I want it to be great but I kinda feel like how it turns out is almost as irrelevant as the platform that launched season 6. If it exists, we win.

It does, but as a parent, I look at that as an assumed risk. What stinks is when one or two kids inspire the others to get loud or act out.

I feel like it was a bit easier for parents and non-parent adults to coexist in restaurants a few years ago. I’m not sure if this is a forgotten art or what, but I recall restaurants formally or informally designating family dining areas to kind of keep kids away from the groups composed only of adults. Obviously it’s…

It sucks that the “tiger” line has that origin. That’s confirmed in this link from 2018, along with a somewhat interesting story about the rest of it being more or less about counting, albeit with origins ranging from dietary staples to human sacrifice to fishing:

Makes sense. I was thinking maybe he was embarrassed to be bested by a 19-year-old, but that’s an assumption and probably a silly one at that.

It’s hard to tell if this is some sort of jealousy issue, if there’s a legitimate claim to cheating, or if this is social chess where Carlsen eliminates an opponent from play without having to beat him on the board because he’s unable to beat him on the board.

I’ve changed over time:

I was about to say the same thing! It also goes for things like the AMA, the ADA.
