Several years ago, along with others, I'm in the recovery area after a colonoscopy. A doctor goes in to a curtained area next to mine and begins to lecture a young woman.

"I see you ate before the procedure, didn't we give you instructions not to?"

"Yeah, but I was really hungry."

"Well, we're not going to be able to use these results. Do you know how expensive this procedure is?"

There was a lot more, but what was the offending food? Pomegranate seeds. Thought I was gonna die.

It's no accident that New Hampshire has massive liquor stores on both sides of I-95 at the Maine state line. Maine's tried to combat that for years but refuses to forgo the tax revenue. The Amtrak Downeaster runs from Maine to Boston. A few weeks ago, some idjit decided that for the 35 miles the train was in NH, alcohol could not be served unless it was purchased in NH. Amtrak gets all It's alcohol from Maine. That lasted about a week. As for beer, we're closing in on around 200 craft breweries. Most now have their own tasting rooms and are expanding into adding food. It's become a multi-million dollar industry and the beer for the most part is excellent.

This would make a great reddit thread:

Ruh Row. I'll alert the Japanese.

Sell it to Amazon and make it a pay per view event - say $9.99 to watch.

Everything causes climate change. Latest research: The global food system, and the agriculture industry that supports it, could cause as much global warming as all human activity has caused since the industrial revolution.

We're all going to die!

Yum!

Just realized I've never seen this uncut - only on TV. I now feel the need to correct that.

Today I learned how a microwave defrosts. Mine has 3 settings: meat - chicken - fish. The only setting that actually successfully works is fish. So I use fish for everything. Except fish. It's not possible to defrost fish without cooking some (most) of it. And it's a microwave not an air-fryer. Nothing crispy has ever come out of a microwave.
