I resent the fuck out of the fact that all the public trails around here have posted no motorized vehicles so I can’t ride my Trail 70 there anymore, but people can blast past you on their e-motorcycles that are more powerful than my little Honda. Doubly so because the e-bikers would be the first people to call the…

$5K e-bikes? Pfft. Those are for the DUI riders.

Thing is, a single Dole Whip at the park will run you $7 easily. $2/cup is not cheap, but given the price of everything going up, it’s not totally unreasonable.

“Because the internet loves to bully others online”

The secret of Marvel’s early success was that Stan Lee was constantly ribbing the readers from the sidelines, going, “Can you believe this crazy shit, True Believers?” There was always a near-perfect balance of melodrama and ridiculousness. And then the fans went pro and everything got super-serious and mature. And…

I think a Parasite Eve HD remaster would be fantastic. I’d play the hell out of that. 

Jesus, as if I don’t already have a continuous reminder that people are idiots and the internet has not turned out like the creators thought.

When I started my first “real” job in 1982, my branch chief had a secretary to handle calls and correspondence.   Years later when I was promoted to the same level, my secretary was the computer in front of me to do my own damn correspondence.  My phone did have caller ID, so I could screen calls, at least.

Gizmodo’s recent Star Wars list/AI kerfuffle is a scary indication of another job for the list. The story made the Washington Post this morning.

I just hope they don’t ruin them by penny pinching and swapping in the thinner patties. Seems to always happen.

FYI, if you’re looking for a sandwich, the Tyson frozen chicken sandwiches are actually quite good. A nice, thick (much thicker than the bagged breaded patties) make it the closest home version to the original Popeye’s chicken sandwich you can get (before they got all sad and thin) , and you can put whatever you want…

Aldi’s red bag country style tenders are way, way better.  They taste pretty close to Chick-Fil-A IMO. 

I don’t think I’ve bought the tenders yet, but I can attest that their popcorn chicken is also very good - way better than Perdue! 

The town I grew up in - the local Dairy Queen was pretty much the same way. The franchise owner was notorious for only hiring “attractive” teenage girls. 

Oh yeah wasn’t that a gigantic setup by the cops that basically got out of their control immediately?

My brain automatically read that in Rodney Dangerfield’s voice.

Paste as plain text is your friend when it comes to kinja and hyperlinks.

If I wanted mediocre food served by disinterested women I’d get back with my exes. 

I keep sex and food separate. Ever since the mashed potato incident.

There are White Castles in Nanuet and Yonkers, New York. Both are closer to Vermont than Newark, New Jersey.
