The atmospheres of pressure gag on Futurama is still one of the best that show ever did.

Recently got Mission BBQ (chain BBQ joint) after not having gone in a while, and got 3 miniature slices of brisket, a tiny cup of mac & cheese and a piece of cornbread that was MAYBE 1 square inch and that shit was like $22. It’s been a bit, but the price to product ratio was way worse than the last time I visited.
I don’t know which hipster BBQ place started the trend of giving you a thimble of food for mid-high tier sit-down restaurant prices, but they can fuck all the way off.

Danica Roem becomes Virginia’s first openly transgender state senator
Reply in thread
Dems are projected to win the house, and more importantly for her, they won the senate where she will serve. So she’s unlikely to be as hampered by republicans as the Montana rep.

poor Dean
Dean Koontz is kind of like the RC Cola of horror/suspense novelists:
As a side note, I LOVED Dean Koontz books back in the 80’s/90’s. They were fun and quick reads that are in the “high floor, low ceiling” realm of books.

I don’t know if it’s the same stat buffs/debuffs across all the Elder Scrolls games, but the one OP was likely talking about was the Redguard race in Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion (stat sheet here). And yes, it was pretty messed up.

That is genuinely bleak.
If you put on a blindfold and picked a random point on the Russian timeline, from its founding to today, this statement would be equally applicable.

What are some companies that deserve to be boycotted to death?

At least half of these are the “Why he say fuck me for!?” meme. Costco actually treats their employees well, has razor thin margins, keeps profits low to maximize value, and pays living wages. Also, $1.50 hotdogs in 2023 is bordering on insanity as far as value is concerned.
I also have no idea how you truly avoid all of these without living like Ted Kaczynski.

No offense taken! Thank you for adding that in as I was not familiar with her. More visibility is always a good thing.

Think of it on a scale of 1-10. High floor means it’s not a stinker, so worst ranking would be in the 4/10 - 5.5/10 range. Low ceiling means it’s not going to be an all-timer, so the best ranking would be in the 6/10 - 7.5/10 range. Basically you’ll never HATE it, but you’re also never going to LOVE it.

Yes, because whomever Biden loses to will DEFINITELY have a different policy on Israel that couldn’t possibly be worse in every measure.

What is the best looking retro console or PC?
Intelligang represent!
Intellevision may not have the best controller design out there, but the versatility with the different card inserts made playing games easier when I was a kid. Basically a guide in the palm of your hands for each game you owned. Losing them did blow however.

Why do all of these mid-west “salad” recipes have a 4-5 ingredients that seem ok, and then one god damn ingredient that is absolutely BONKERS. Like, why on earth does the cookie salad have mandarin oranges in it!? Whhhhhhyyyyyyyyyyy

It was a stunt so he could tout his tax-free tips bullshit. They roped in an old grandma and somehow thought showing her having to work to pay off her husband's medical debt in her elder years wasn’t dystopian as fuck.
But hey, $100 tip. Orphan-crushing machine for the win!

Tesla Cybertrucks are gathering dust, even with $6,000 discount
Reply in thread
It also has terrible build quality, is almost double the price they said it would be, & does zero things better than any of its competitors. Crazy to think that anyone would prefer to purchase something (or you know, literally anything) other than a cybertruck
