No, I dare not - probably not since I was 10. But I remember the Caesar salad show. As for whitest, I wouldn’t expect split pea soup to pull a diverse crowd...

There must be some steakhouses in midtown that do the traditional table-side presentation? (though in a steakhouse, I admit, I prefer the wedge salad) I don’t know if any west coasters have found memories of the table-side Caesar at Anderson Split Pea on family road trips?

Yeah, I call bullshit on thee Chicago thing. Whatever the case, Caesar’s in Tijuana certainly has been the restaurant most associated with the salad for the past 100 years or so and still serves the platonic ideal of the salad. And is still going strong today!

I always thought he looked a bit like Kenley Jansen from the Dodgers.

The loathing that I feel for them together is greater than the sum of its parts. They seem to reflect and amplify each other’s terribleness.

This is a fair enough take. Basically all the bugs that people traditionally eat that I’ve been offered have been fine to good (chapulines, meal worms, palm weevil larvae, ant larvae, giant Colombian ants). But I’m not going to eat just any old bug. And cockroaches, no thank you.

Sadly I’d take the cold over flying back into the Blade Runner 2049 smoke of California right now.

They are called balaclavas, and funny enough the term originates from the Crimean War (the 1850s one). Handmade masks were sent over to the British troops to help protect them from the bitter cold weather in the harbor of Balaklava, near the site of Charge of Light Brigade fame. I don’t know where the fact the name…

Also, I was in Nashville a couple days ago and it was literally freezing.

Zeroed in on the same line and thought “someone doesn’t know what site they are on.” Ha ha.

Pet peeve of mine too.

Didn’t read this. Just here to say how much I hate the word “addicting” in lieu of “addictive” (I know here a quote). Nails on the chalkboard.

Rage against the dying of the light...

In fairness, it’s actually spelled koozie (tm). In Australia it’s a “stubby holder.”

It’s cool, Bro, they drink Tecate.

Yes and no, I think. The Jez take on this is as misleading and uninformed as usual, given voice to some PT mouthpiece about how this is some conspiracy to roll back progressive social policies. I was with some Brazilians at a work conference recently who are virulently opposed to Bolsonaro, but they all seemed to…

The second I saw this story I couldn’t believe anyone could be so naive to think this was anything than a carefully orchestrated stunt with the knowledge of all parties involved. Goddamn, despite all the cynicism out there, people are still so gullible.

These days it’s the same drivers using both apps, so I’m not sure how that’s true or relevant to this story.

I was expecting something typically inflammatory and off the wall from this site, but this interview was so thoughtful and reasonable - I don’t know why it’s so difficult for people to grasp these ideas.

It’s like neither of these idiots are aware, as they insult each other, that they willingly slept with each other.
