Ketchup would be one of my last choices anyway. Maybe with certain mains like fried chicken or chicken fried steak (ok, some people say that's weird but it's what we did at Furr's Cafeteria).

Right now, probably Marie Sharp's Beware Habanero sauce. Second choice, chimichurri.

It would probably ruin them and their work though. While I have little sympathy for the plights of billionaires, it's difficult for people to not allow that level of ridiculous wealth and power to affect them. These people have found a much healthier path to success. I'm sure the living ones are all financially comfortable without the ridiculous distortion of excess wealth.

Also though I'd object to anyone being a billionaire since it's absurd.

“Axis of evil” was a GWB and Cheney thing. I don’t think Obama ever used the term.

Is there an artist so horrible that no matter how hard you try that you cannot separate their art from them?

Similar to the recent question about artists where you can successfully separate them from their art. Are there any artists who did something so horrible, so despicable, that it has instantly invalidated all art that they have had any part in?

The Rick & Morty guy kind of ruined his show, too.

That's the point though, that some people will use the 'but chicken sandwich is good' as a justification to overlook the other problems and still buy them. My ex and Hobby Lobby, for instance - she'd want to go there and shop for paints because they 'might have a sale', and I was just uh, no? Fuck Hobby Lobby.

"Gashouse eggs" is the one I've heard most. Nice Great Depression-era ring to it.

It’s also a good thing dildos aren’t made of
metal and connected to voltage.

Like, a motor.... The State of Arkansas would pay you for a novel execution device though.

The chain wallet looked goofy on this 70 year old guy, that’s all.

I saw this 70 year old guy waiting at the hospital today, with his 70 year old wife in a wheelchair, produce wearing by his brand new TRUMP hat (along with a chain wallet, like he was 20 and it was 1996). My thought was: why the fuck does this loser have to fuck up society before he dies of old age?

I know a fair amount of girls from Minnesota and Oregon who would like that because they're into fishing themselves. They grew up fishing with their fathers.

Yeah, where I used to live up north, even very remote lakes were poisoned with mercury said to be from coal burning in China. People were advised to not eat fish from the lake more than a few times a week or once a week for certain fish. So... tons of people just ignore that or don't even know about it because they either don't really understand or believe it, have poor information sources, enjoy the experience, or it's all they can afford.

It's more a "I'm a manly dude who is good at catching fish! I enjoy leisure time on lakes and I have a boat!" than a promise that they'll eat the fish. At least half the time it's catch and release fishing anyway.

New York style is great, but it’s often floppy… it it? Idk. I lived in Connecticut and was amazed at the gas/wood slate ovens and how they’d make a medium-thin pizza that was super crispy from edge to center. Chicago style is a whole other thing, though! Plus don’t leave out Detroit!
In MN they make the weirdest “cracker crust” pizza which they cut into squares, even when the pizza is round. It’s… okay.

I feel like I’d have to put at least some Parmesan on top.

Also, squib!

There's a Christmas market about half that size in Denver. I've never been puzzled about how people get there.

squiblet,
@squiblet@kbin.social avatar

Saying "I want to know how they deal with parking", assuming they have vast parking garages and a shrug emoji is what I interpreted as puzzled. If you're not clear it's a reference to access to public transportation.

squiblet,
@squiblet@kbin.social avatar

It's true though that many Americans have never lived in a city with functional public transportation, so they don't even consider it. I lived in a city with a decent light rail system and it wasn't really reasonable because I would have had to walk 1.5 miles across hellish intersections (or taken an uber?) to even get to a train station, and I lived in a fairly urban area.

It's something a lot of members had in common when that was most popular... reddit experience and Splez angst.

squiblet,
@squiblet@kbin.social avatar

For some types of posts that's fine - the capybara community, for instance, is a steady stream of capybaras from reddit (I think) and that's not the type of post that needs interaction with OP or comments. Posts from say, tech support, very inappropriate to copy to Lemmy imo without a link back and an explanation as it might get a conversation going but it also confuses people who think their response might be seen by the OP.

    There is no “ackshully” and he didn’t call anyone a liar. He just said a statement was incorrect.

    Sometimes they even just repost something they found on the internet

    It's taken me decades to figure this out

    'fanum tax' = some streamer or tiktok or youtuber or something called fanum who takes people's food and says 'fanum tax'
    'ohio' = I think it's about "ohio vs the world" which has something to do with the entire US being Ohio
    'gyatt' = exclamation about a big butt
    'skibidi' = reference to this bizarre series called skibidi toilet which features toilets with heads sticking out of them doing battle with robots with cameras on their heads
