Everything your handicapped relatives do on a ship can be done at a resort somewhere. Probably even a Vegas casino.

My in-laws are still scheduled for a cruise in August. That they booked AT THE END OF MARCH.

Uh, no. Cars are still permitted down 7th and Broadway in TS, cars are permitted on the 72nd cross-street in CP, and cars are still allowed where Broadway ends at Union Square. But thanks for playing.

Ok you fucking boomer.

The streets that would be shut down to passenger cars are not the ones where you see cars parked. Those are mostly residential and less crowded. The streets that SHOULD be shut down are the ones that have tons of pedestrian traffic- commercial districts like Times Square, park-like areas like Union Square, and actual…

You know, you can be a fan of cars and still not want people driving in the most dense city in the U.S. that is served well by public transportation. I love driving (manual only!) and had a car when I lived in NYC, but I never drove it around the city. It was only to get out of the city. 

I’m in a state (NJ) with the most restrictive rules for sheltering in place. I still go to the supermarket, walk around the neighborhood, visit relatives, and go to the office when needed. This is not house arrest.

How do they compare to your brown butter cinnamon rolls? Cuz I made those, ate almost all of them myself, and they should also be called Giant Ass Cinnamon Rolls, except with a strategically placed comma:

Teens driving without licenses and cops who don’t pull over drivers.

That’s interesting- 00 flour is low gluten, but I guess the refined texture provides the chewiness? I use bread flour which is high gluten to provide the chewiness in the crust. I might have to experiment with the 00 if and when the stores have flour back in stock.

I love the taste of almond extract. Not real almonds. Just the fake almond flavor that reminds me of eating Good Humor Toasted Almond bars. So I make my own ice cream flavored with almond extract and chopped up toffee bars. The wife won’t touch it.

Just release the Baja version as a special edition and watch it sell out in minutes.

I make my own pizza from scratch and I would put my crust up against any fancy pizza place. The key is to use high-gluten flour and to allow the dough to proof sufficiently. Also, don’t work the dough too hard.

LOL! I Was just in a Target where the family behind refused to stay 6 feet away. After their toddler brushed up against me, I finally turned and asked them to keep 6 feet away. I think I said, “Hey, would you guys mind adhering to the 6 feet thing? Your kid just brushed my leg.” The mother was pissed and told her…

That is one stupid hot take. Toddlers walk on sidewalks. Senior citizens walk on sidewalks. A collision with a bike can kill them. In a suburban setting, bikes on sidewalks aren’t so bad. In cities, where sidewalks are crowded, it’s moronic.

Bicycles are permitted, even required, to be on the roads in most urban settings. It is the responsibility of car drivers to share the road with them. Yes, some riders ignore traffic signals but by and large most cyclists don’t die because they ran a stop sign and got hit by a car. Usually they get run over while…

Yeah, I don’t get it. It’s obviously on the wall to the right of the photo. Literally, that’s where the fridge is in 90% of the homes in the U.S. with this kitchen layout: the interior wall opposite the rear of the house.

That sign is gold. If not for the swearing I would post that on my front door.

I’m a corporate attorney in NYC. I work with CEOs all the time, and they are almost all assholes, without exception. I’m the last person who would defend CEOs. But Musk, from what I can tell, is at least a CEO whose stock-based pay is not the result of accounting tricks and/or short-term strategies. I mean, I think…

They actually are sort of special, in the sense that they sell only their store branded goods, and the quality and prices are almost impossible to beat. Their food is not fungible with other supermarkets’ offerings.
