One thing about college students, they have the extra cash on hand to by controlling stakes in the most powerful corporations in the world.

We don’t eat a lot of mustard. When we do, it’s always Dijon or German. But, my wife was cleaning the fridge and dragged out some old French’s yellow mustard from the back that we bought for a kids’ party years ago. Turns out it expired in 2013. Guess we’ll throw it out. Where’s your sense of adven...

I just got a 10 minute explanation of this whole beef from my son, complete with lyrics and explanations (though I had to explain to him what a beard is). I was going to make a joke about how nobody was talking about it in here, and then I find this discussion... My son is worried Drake is going to ...

Crystal here, but that's really more Latin and Cajun than Mexican. Crystal is my number #1 by far and I use it on anything up to and including pizza. But if we do fish tacos (quick meal with air-fried beer-battered Gortons fish sticks, sautéed onions and all the fixins) I need that taco sauce on th...

I can't peanut butter my dick up your ass.

Thanks, I kind of remember that now.

I hate you, AB. This’ll be stuck in my head for days.

Sorry for your loss Lenny, nice that everyone could be there for your mother.

Do they know each other? Maybe they could bond over both fathers belonging to a weird online friend group. Ha! They are aware of each other and been to parties at each other’s houses, but I don’t think they’ve ever spoken. My son isn’t the most socially adept kid, though he’s made huge strides the ...

Remembering the time HIMYM made an anal sex joke to explain why one of its characters wasn't around when the actress went on maternity leave. Probably grandfathered in too. Kinda sorta? If you don’t already know the joke, you couldn’t have any idea it’s about anal sex. I didn’t know the joke until ...

Pretty much just the Swamp or Googling EPL scores. ESPN app and CBSSports for fantasy football.

I bought Trader Joe's Taco Sauce. It's not great, but a step up from a pouch of taco seasoning mix. It's like they added a pouch of taco seasoning to sloppy joe sauce, but watered down.

I usually have around 8 open hot sauces in the fridge, need the right sauce for the right occasion. I have two new favorites: https://www.saucebae.com/cdn/shop/products/Sauce-Bae-Hotter-Habanero-hot-sauce-2-pack_600x.jpg?v=1714462580 Sauce Bae Hotter Habanero.

There. I said it.

ETA: I’m not putting on a lot of stuff, but id rather have it in my fridge than the alternative.

I’d rather have it in my fridge than on my food, if that’s what you mean.

Took the Boy to Admitted Student's Day at Binghamton U last weekend, and they timed a protest for when most people would be in the Spine. I'd say about 30 kids marching, one with a megaphone, purely anti-war slogans. The Hillel table was right there, so I was interested to watch the reactions of the...

A major reason teams are so willing to play rookie QBs these days is to get some average QB play at a rookie contract level. By sitting Penix for several years, they are missing out on that benefit. Then they'll have a guy with 1 or 2 years of playing experience and have to start shelling out huge m...

I've used that field! And no, I don't think they have a baseball team anymore, but they used to and Agannis Arena is named for a famous baseball alum, who was a famous football alum but decided to play for the Braves. Then he got pneumonia and died. Which shows the risks of playing for Boston profe...

Alan Tudyk, Walton Goggins, and Gary Cole need to star in their own TV show together. I don’t care what it is about, I’m watching! I started season 2, and I wasn’t liking the first 2 episodes nearly as much as season 1. Got too goofy and the alien became too much of a dick. Took a break, but it’ll ...

All great stuff in this thread today, except for the show closing early. This thread is always a gamble, don't know if you are getting heartwarming stories, or angry.

One thing I hate about getting old is with players today I can never tell if the women sitting next to them are their mothers, sisters or girlfriends.

I just feel old because the GFs look like children and the moms are age appropriate for me.

My mother points out specific chants and signs with antisemitic messages. I don't think she believes the majority of protesters are antisemitic, but being born at the end of WW2, she has some strong fears. I get that I can't get that, if that makes sense. Out of curiosity, where does she stand on w...

I'm sure there are some anti-semetic people at the rallies (and anywhere else people gather), but these protests are against the Israeli gov't, not jewish people. Otherwise, there are a whole lot of anti-semetic jewish people both there and living around me and in Isarel, etc, etc. Framing it as an...

Yeah, agreed. What bugs me the most about VAR is that when you slow down footage to a frame by frame viewing, EVERYTHING* looks like a serious foul/infraction. I don't mind freeze framing offsides and handballs, but fouls should mostly be viewed in real time mode. Agree with all of this. I was thin...

There’s going to be a Kent State/Jackson State tragedy again soon, and the shitbags is going to somehow blame wokeism for it. They definitely won't be upset about it.

That's a red. ETA - That's not what you're taught to do. You're taught to bring that knee up to protect you from being run into. You're not taught to kick out like that... For this very reason. When you bring you knee up, you can "legally" deck someone that is running into you. But that g...

That’s not the accounts I am hearing/reading. There are bad actors on both sides but a lot of what I see is actually students on both sides advocating for peace. Honestly I’d say don’t listen to anyone older than you on this issue. The kids have damn near always been right. Yeah, I ignored my mothe...

They gave TikTok 9 months instead of 6 to be transferred. So surprise, surprise. It won't mess with the election. But yes, the move is massively tone deaf and partially hypocritical since there's been outreach to influencers to get folks to vote. Not to mention Biden recently created a TikTok accou...

So, if I understand this correctly, the TikTok bill going through Congress right now is designed to force them to transfer ownership to an American entity. I understand that the Chinese say that is not going to happen. This issue scares the hell out of me, because if access to TikTok ends up gettin...

Went on a tour of the largest handmade chocolate factory in the US a few weeks ago (it's here in Denver) it was ok, their best confections weren't made in-house (the red chile chocolate truffle had my vote.)
