I get the feeling we’re working from different ingredient quality assumptions, but whatever, you do you. I’m not going to make you eat my delicious and satisfying sandwich.

Starred for “willfully obtuse” alone, which I think encapsulates the Western cultural soul.

Counter-point: A PB&J is a tasty punch of nutrition (especially on soft whole wheat sandwich bread) and perfect for room-temperature storage for hikes and road trips.

I went from zero comic-reading to some comic reading about 5 years ago, and it’s totally because of Comixology. Way less intimidating for a noob to browse a digital store than to enter the sanctum of the local shop. Also lets me un-self-consciously read reviews and wikis online while I shop. 

I want an I.D. Buzz like I have wanted few things ever.

Write it now, fix it later. The best piece of advice I ever got from a writing professor was to “learn to write badly”. By which he meant, just write the scene. Don’t worry about getting it perfect. Having something to come back and fix in the next draft is much more valuable than getting stuck and stalled or leaving…

Sure. That’s fair. I’m showing my SLC loyalty.

Don’t ski Park City or Deer Valley, stay in Salt Lake and go to any of the resorts in Big or Little Cottonwood Canyons. They’re cheaper and arguably better. The only reason to go to Park City is if you’re really after that “Mountain Ski Town” vibe, which I admit is pleasant.

Came here to say exactly this.

Your picks always make me wonder if you ever smoked weed with me an my roomates at our run-down rental a block from campus in 2001.

I worked in restaurants with generous staff meal policies, so I always ate at work and tried to take some home as well. And pots of soup that stretch all week.

I could easily write the opposite of this post: “What it’s like to raise your children without fast food even though you secretly crave it because it tastes like childhood, ironically.”

I do a lot of hiking in moose country and I continue to be surprised by how many people react to “Hey, there’s a moose up the trail, so you know.” by running toward the indicated spot with their camera out. No, dumbass, that was a warning. Do not approach the moose!

All (large-ish) wild animals are potentially dangerous, not just predators. The most dangerous animal in North America (based on injuries reported) is the moose. Do not approach moose!

Where are all of the “Where’s Killmonger?!” Memes? The internet has really dropped the ball on this.

“Beto O’Rourke Set to Launch Campaign to Hopefully Scoop Up the VP Nom After the Bloodbath Has Ended”

Came here to say this. Even if all of your power comes from a dirty old coal plant, an EV is still on par with a Prius on carbon emissions.

And this is just fuel costs. Wait until you factor in that it doesn’t have any oil to change.

In the same way that visiting their home town of Provo, Utah, is a lot like going to church but without actually getting directly preached at (hopefully). Checks out.
