AFV is still only about 40% nut shots, max, with the remainder cute kids and animals doing funny things. Jackass was still kind of on the periphery. But now things like Fboy Island is moving mainstream with content crafted to appeal to the basest of our nature.

Just one step closer to Ow! My Balls!

Toxicity is the dose

I have to defend haystacks. Not because they represent baking in any sense, but because they are a pretty tasty cookie-adjacent treat. It takes some practice to get something that looks appealing, but if you get that worked out, you wind up with something that will get snarfed down quickly on a cookie buffet.…

I love big tubs of stuff emotionally, but I’m also aware of how much big quantities of consumables can drive consumption. It’s a lot easier to keep chowing down when you mentally think that it will never end.

I also have a fuzzy recollection that the chips would be delivered to your home, sort of like milk back in the day.

Yes, and because of that period in public domain, for some of us it’s unnecessary to stream it. We have the entire film pretty well burned into our visual cortex. I remember sitting around at a Christmas Eve family gathering one year, playing a game of seeing whether I could keep a TV continuously showing a broadcast…

An equally surreal drive is I-90 as you head west from MI, across IN and into Chicago. You pass the USS Steel Gary Works. Around dusk, the view of the steelyard is absolutely something out of a Renaissance painting of Hell. It’s especially striking on an overcast evening, where the effluent rises from the smokestacks…

Chicago downtown is great for parking, with lots of underground space beneath Millennium and Grant Parks. Neighborhoods are a vary different story.

Tell me you wouldn’t be psyched about a 508 Peugeot Sport Engineered coming to the U.S. as a Chrysler-badged performance PHEV sedan

Not only does the cover pale in comparison to the original, the song doesn’t even make sense when you gender swap the principals. Is Combs supposed to be riding in his girlfriend’s car, dreaming of getting away to a better life, only to realize that she’s not going to be able to hold up her end of the bargain? Or is…

Why the whole uniform?

How is vodka not on this list?

I think that Biden’s involvement with the push for EVs has led to a number of people that wouldn’t use an EV even if they were given one. The stupid politicization of everything nowadays has made EVs toxic for the MAGA crowd.

What, no love for Pete Best?

My alarm radio is not connected to the internet. It’s connecting to a radio signal, although I don’t know who is generating that signal. It can’t be that expensive to add that capability to anything that already has a radio frequency receiver. My alarm clock cost less than $20. So even though adding a receiver to…

It only takes one study to come out, whether valid or totally misleading, to say one specific ingredient is good or bad

Unless you’re in a big hurry, I find that a better technique for softening butter in to cut up the desired quantity into small cubes (about half an inch), and place the bowl in an elevated position in your home, where it’s several degrees warmer than on the counter top. I place my bowl on a high shelf in the laundry…

What throws people off is the exactitude that baking requires. You can play fast and loose with quantities, proportions, and time with most cooking, but baking demands greater precision.
