They've gotten really good at expediting customs, and they remain bad at... like, almost everything else.

THE MEG actually comes really close to this formula, come to think of it.

The best protag in all of fiction:

1. Only good at violence.
2. Wants to be nonviolent.
3. A failure in nonviolent life, cuz of #1. But still lives this way cuz of #2.
4. A child is now in danger.
5. Protag is only one present to protect the child.
5. Violence is the only way to protect the child.

I know one way we can find out!

Yeah, I guess it depends on whether or not they're by definition landlords?

Unless I'm misinformed, they'd be billionaires regardless, right? So, like, I don't even see what THEY get out of it. Are they that much better off than say, the Waltons or the Sacklers or whoever?

Every song about, featuring, or even name-checking the Devil is good. This is settled science.

Iโ€™ve been a shitty guitar player since 1989

Just saw that Bar Rescue guy say that bars shouldn't hold karaoke nights cuz 45 yer old women don't drink. If you ARE gonna have karaoke, have a themed night to specifically draw a younger crowd. His example was Metallica.

Dude.

Mace is two hits of acid away from just singing this.

There might be a "Home Sweet Home" divide, with RATT preceding it and Poison following it. After that song, the world knew all those bands, & they no longer had the dangerous sheen of the outsider.

Disco was /hated/ when I was a kid. Same thing then.

Outlander's been on the air so long that chick's gonna catch up to her own time.

I watch a lot of guitar Youtube, and a lot of that comes from the UK. I think I probably hear the UK pronunciations of "tuner" and "solder" a lot more than most Americans. So I think about them way more than anyone needs to.

My favorite example of this is in Cocaine & Rhinestones, where minutes are dedicated to the career of the guy who admitted Herbert Hoover into Harvard - a path that led to the Presidency, the Depression, dust bowl migration to CA, all leading to Merle Haggard's "Okie From Muskogee."

Before 1998, the web was basically 2 websites. After 2008, the web is basically 2 websites. In between those times, it was terrific.

From a 5th grader named John in 1982, thanks for that.

This seems like a challenge but is in fact a good faith question: would any other result have ended up with that pollster's note?

Also, you have "petrol" and we have "gas," which on the list of these differences puts you guys waaaaaay ahead of us in sensibility. Like, that one alone takes care of "frown" and "soccer" or whatever.

I've seen the British spelling of "aeroplane*" and I've heard "airplane" said by Brits with that little beat in the middle, but I never put together what had been right in front of me for so long.

*my US MacBook autocorrected that 3 times before I forced it to get it right.

"I learned this in Italy!"

*mixes onion powder into a can of spaghettios then dumps it into a premade graham cracker crust*

I 100% thought the same thing the first bunch of times I saw it.

The right-est answer is probably Zartan.

It might come from seeing fast TikTok style recipe videos? I feel like there's an over-representation of onion powder specifically in those.

Let's ignore the other guy involved for a bit. But if Danny McBride plays a role in a G.I. Joe movie, who should it be?

Honestly there's no wrong answer.

I feel the same way, and I'm pretty convinced it's cuz if something's set in the far future, that mean's I've died. And fuck that.

Oasis announced a tour last year and yeah.

If the price of Jamaican rum goes up in the near future, 40% of that will be because of the recent hurricane in Jamaica. The other 60% will be because of me.
