Why do people eat shrimp?  They look just like bugs!

If Joan really does have it together it can work, although unless she has charisma in overdrive, her tips are going to suck. Better to be a cashier at McDonalds where there are often people her age, working.. As the only adult in the room without dementia, it can be possible for Joan to make manager, in time.

I fear sleep paralysis, that feeling when you want to wake up, but you can’t move a muscle.

Should soup kitchens claiming to serve “Meals” be investigated for fraud?

As online retail, despite the hype is only 12% of all retail business, the threat that brick & mortar stores are doomed to extinction, is exaggerated.

Are they the home of a ludicrously abundant, chicken sandwich?

Americans are an optimistic people. If there is an item on the store shelf without a price label, then it must be the cheapest! If there is a restaurant with no queue, it must offer the fastest service! Sometimes the establishment with no line in a busy place is a clue of a different sort, altogether.

What! No faceless Amish doll?  Those should get honorable mention.

Hey! The jury found that it was supposed to be a cold soup.  You’re in the soup now!

There are a few black Ukrainians, I met one once.   Trump used to be popular with advertisers trying to sell to the black demographic, before the birther attacks on Obama. Up until then, something about Trump resonated in the black community, the way preachers with fancy clothes and expensive cars sometimes do.

People have been complaining about the McDonalds, Soft Serve machines for at least ten years, and that means through various generations of technology. Super old machines that most of you don’t remember, used to require cleaning every couple of days. Modern machines can have internal pasteurization, making it possible…

“Tasks more complicated than pressing bars for food or navigating mazes.” There is some cultural bias in the notion that these activities are less difficult than driving. Further experiments should be conducted by scientists in a more pedestrian State.

The hardware for Cartridges bootleg or otherwise probably comes from China, and some cartridges spiked with THC probably come from China, but most of them are probably loaded by American entrepreneurs. The FDA is not institutionally capable of approving products for recreational use. Ethically and politically, it is…

I am working on this plan to give whales expectorant and get fresh ambergris.  

Vitamin E Acetate. The risk is that any oily substance in an aerosol, might coat the inside of the lungs with a thin layer, creating artificial pneumonia, because air can’t go through it and people effectively drown. An ingredient that works like this might be necessary to deliver ordinary, natural THC to the lungs,…

If you live in a tiny village in nowhere’s-ville, USA, then you are lucky to have that one dingy, ill lit,  restaurant with patches on the upholstery of the aging, repro, 50's diner style, booths.

I expect that the THC is absorbed in the coffee itself, which becomes oily in the roasting process and is itself only partially soluble in water. If they can include some “Natural” emulsifying agent, then that would improve the dispersion of the THC. It should be safe since it isn’t vaped...

There is a whole other level where people don’t merely have an accident. For example, and I have many, there was the guy who visited the public restroom at my grocery store, took the lid off the top of the water tank on top of the toilet, climbed up and took a dump in the tank. I later used a couple of plastic grocery…

So, is a used napkin with lipstick and food from the inside of a person’s mouth, somehow cleaner than a facial tissue?  I am on the fence with this... issue.  While I wouldn’t want to encourage grossness, unfortunately it’s part of the job.

That’s almost what Fergie did. She still likes hanging out in the U.S. But, describing Meghan’s privileged life as “Destroyed,” is a bit of an exaggeration. I suspect Meghan can remain married and renounce her titles and live in seclusion, off the payroll, if she wishes.
