As a corollary to my above comment, one might not want to watch the linked video if one's Blood Alcohol Content is above a certain level. One misses parts from LOLing and has to watch over again.
I am sitting on my front porch at the end of a long day, enjoying a few fingers of Scotch. In my hyper-relaxed state, I am reading and marveling at the just written corollary linking humankind's first airborne flight to the creation of the Corn Dog. I find it amusing in a neato sort of way. This was obviously written by someone who deeply loves a good Corn Dog (demonstratably argued and established by article's end). I salute you sir.
I've got one but nowhere near the perfection of the linked. Missing the pour spout for starters which makes it hard to use if I want to decant something for a gathering. On the bottom opposite SOUVENIR BOTTLE it says: 27 YEARS OF STUBBORNNESS BUT WE MADE IT. I popped over to ebay and checked how much similar bottles have actually sold for. Not perfect but $20-$45.00. Makes the price on the linked item a bit suspect I think, but it someone wants one that's not a reproduction they're out there.
At one end of my soda spectrum is Cream Soda and at the other is Moxie. Yum! The cream soda I grew up with was clear and I always preferred that to the caramel/brown version. Maybe Faygo, don't remember. And Diet Cream Soda is an oxymoron. Waistlines be damned!
Great article. Schlitz was once my goto beer - when I wasn't driving into Canada to buy Carlsberg. Didn't know much about the legal stuff back then, but boy did I know skanky beer when I tasted it. Hello Strohs. Also loved the "...an ironic middle finger to all the microbrews currently flooding the market" line. Once upon a time, microbrews were the dominant beers. New York, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin were kings of the world when it came to beer. It was like that nationwide, but my neck of the woods mostly featured beers from those states. And they were all affordable. Remember the mystique around Coors? Only available west of the Rockies. . .
My first thought was uh-oh. If they're doing this perhaps it should be a straight to streaming type release. But smart advertising and it looks like it'll be good for a few weekends of movie leadership. As for Liam who I think previously announced he was done or taking time off from the bad-ass genre, he does have a particular set of skills. He was half-way to full-blown comedy with an admirable performance back in Love Actually so this could be a good first step in that direction.
Meh. My memory of Warheads is that they were just like every other sour candy. An initial burst then nothing but a sugary hard candy. Maybe I'll give them another try. Full disclosure: a lifetime of extreme candy along with hot sauces that are rather high on the Scoville Heat Unit scale has already rendered my taste buds rather iffy. If you know what I mean. In other news, the UK Food Standards Agency has declared Jolly Ranchers as unsafe to eat. Something about chemicals and cancer. No word if a whole bunch of rats had to be sacrificed in order to make that claim. Personally, I don't care much on this either. When it comes to Jolly Ranchers I'm with the dentists, mainly because I've always considered them a mostly useless candy.
NSFW But this immediately reminded me of this scene from HBO's The Wire. If you can't handle the F* word and its many variations, don't go there.
Bunk and McNulty are sent to investigate an old crime scene. At the scene, they communicate using only variations of that word (+/- 38 times) as they recreate the murder and find a shell casing and bullet that previous detectives missed. The crime was based on a real life murder and the 'dialogue' was inspired by crime scenes writer David Simon had visited where the detectives would communicate with each through swearing.
What Makes Miracle Whip Different From Mayonnaise?1) It isn't mayonnaise 2) It sucks
It is welcomed basically nowhere in anything I consume. And hats off to Matthew Inman. Didn't think he had it in him given his freakish obsession with Sriracha.
