This sucks for her, but it’s an illustration of something I think a lot of people don’t realize: There is no practical way of protecting recipes beyond keeping the ingredients/preparation process a secret. Neither trademark nor copyright law apply to recipes as recipes. While it is technically possible to patent a

With how quickly the shots were fired, there’s just no way. They shot him in the back and the only shot that even happened facing the officers was in his thigh.

Well I am waiting for Dana Loesch and the rest of The NRA to jump to Stephon Clark’s defense and tell the world that he was just exercising his second amendment rights. I mean I know I will see a series of tweets from The NRA and that coon Killer Mike telling us how gun control is unamerican. As for these two cops if

Marry that person.

Here’s the thing- anyone who’s opinion flips on whether or not Trump is a good president (GOD, I still CAN’T BELIEVE THIS HAPPENED) is only changing based on whether or not things are better for them, PERSONALLY. And that’s despicable. “Oh, hate crimes are on the rise, the country is more divided than it has been in

Someone took you on a date to Chez Panisse?

Why does this irritate me so much? Anderson, be better.

I wasn’t even aware of this egg spoon business. I just know that Chez Panisse is fucking amazing. I mean, I can’t afford to eat there, but I was taken on date there last week. Alice Waters is a food god in this town (Berkeley, not San Francisco) and that’s fine by me.

Soft-boiled eggs on hot buttered toast are a true form of the divine.

Anthony Bourdain is an asshole but “Pol Pot in a muumuu” made me laugh aloud during my kid’s violin lesson.

I think you’re right. Gen X is small compared to both Boomers and millenials. It’s a transitional generation that is frequently forgotten. The other day there was an article that described a 48 year old as a millenial. WTF?

The younger millennials get their generational lines confused and conflate Xers and Boomers. The Boomers were the ones who decided greed was good, elected Reagan, went nuts for 401ks. The Xers grew up with latchkeys and shoves toward biz school in the middle of their Trumpian party. (Which is why Family Ties was such

“himrunning in 2020 beats the living hell out of hillary’s political toxicity.”

I used to run into him a lot before he got famous, and he was really nice to me and others at first, but became a MAJOR DICK as he started taking off. He had a reputation for just ghosting on shows and that’s just one of the lamest things you can do. He did that to me after enthusiastically agreeing to be on my show.

BATMAN FOREVER FOREVER!!

I would be curious to know if Clark was filming on his phone. Because if he was and it was dark, wouldn’t the light on the phone probably have been on? That wouldn’t look very gun-like.

Email in full from FOX news contributor who just quit to his colleagues. He was no saint but truth is good medicine. (Thanks to WTFJHT).

It gives me great joy to know that Donald Trump, his whore and his children will never be as beloved as Barack, Michelle, Sasha and Malia. You would have to hide Trump’s portrait because too many people would want to throw things at it.

I still can’t figure out why an office needs a dining table.

The world didn’t deserve that man but I’m sure glad we had him. Thank you Mr. Rogers for being my friend when nobody else would.
