At least they still have Buttholapalooza to look forward to...

I once asked a server about the difference between two varieties of French toast. He said, pointing to the menu options, “This one is awesome and delicious and this one is disgusting and no one would ever want to put it in their mouth.”

Depends on the weather, if it’s cold, crowd shrinkage may occur.

Agreed. It’s a vas deferens from the other conventions that are now left dangling.

Can’t blame them. Everyone is so testes.

Shouldn’t it be two of a kind?

It is a shame that the organizer couldn’t steer the festival back on track.

After all the trouble, it’s no surprise it’s been given the sack.

I’m too picky as well. I sometimes do the opposite of what they say because I fear they are pushing one item at the request of the kitchen/owner. If they tell me both are really good, but I just have to have dish A, I recall my days working in a restaurant with the owner berating the staff that no one is selling dish…

I will readily admit that the Whopper is a terrible burger...and yet once in a while I get a huge craving for it. It’s probably some kind of nostalgia. When I was a broke-ass college student, there was a Burger King a block from the university library that would occasionally have 2-for-$1 Whopper sales, and on days…

Literally none of this is true. :-)

Well I guess I’m going to have to buy some Lazurite and remind myself what it tastes like. You know, in the name of research.

Ah, the “Eleanor - Find Chidi” approach.
