Nothing like watching a first-timer attempt to operate a Coke Freestyle machine. And as much as I’d like to attribute that to the continuing decline of civilization, the fact is that machine is too complicated for its own good, especially for what should be an idiot-proof function.

Caught The Matrix on the original release in Berlin on the 4th of July. Spoke only English all day.
Raising the always fun question: What are your most memorable theater-going experiences?
Mine also include The Matrix, Blair Witch, and being way too stoned in Belgium when Fellowship of the Ring was sold out so we sat in the back row for Mulholland Drive instead.

It was hands-down one of the most memorable theater-going experiences I can remember, a collective 30-minute butt-clench/armrest-grab for the final climb. And we knew he lived! Wild.

I listen to these movies at work sometimes when my podcasts suck. I’ve seen them so many times that I don’t need to watch anymore, but I still love every second.

You have to quote as much of a movie as you can to save your life. What movie?

I deliberately realigned my Thanksgiving pie lineup so that I wouldn’t be stuck finishing off an apple pie that nobody else ate.
The chocolate went first serving. The pumpkin lasted until the next dinner. And now I’m slogging through a goddamn pecan pie solo. It’s a weight watchers horror story.

First time my current oven died was on Thanksgiving day. Went to bake the bread I’d been working and was unpleasantly surprised to find no preheating, or heating of any kind. Still, wrapped it up and managed to cadge enough time in my in-laws oven to get it on the table.
Preorder your Thanksgiving dinner tonight if your oven died and a new one won’t be installed until December!

Your ability to survive in a service industry job is directly related to the amount of shit you’re willing to take, possibly with a smile, without coming completely uncorked in public.
This is true regardless of the color of your collar.

There just isn’t enough time to roast a chicken on a school night.
It IS humping delicious, though.
Paired it with these Kenji potatoes, so now even though it’s late, all tummies are happy:

I think it’s bullshit that the supposed five best teams in college football are all Red teams. Nobody likes a Red team! You’ve gotta go down to 8 (8!) to find a team that ISN’T Red, and that’s Oregon who can’t keep the same color uniforms on for 45 minutes. Le sigh.

Privacy for me but not for thee? Why not give *every* citizen the right to fight the disclosure of their personal data to the government without a warrant? Or make it mandatory for companies to disclose when they HAVE shared data with the government?
Buried inside the deal to reopen government is a provision that would give Senators private right of action to sue for millions in damages over their phone records being analyzed by Jack Smith's team.

Tennessee’s state house is frankly unredeemable, and is so badly gerrymandered already that there’s no cavalry coming. If these people could be shamed, they wouldn’t have already done what they did.
