Haigh's Chocolates (Adelaide, Australia)
While Buffalo wings are now a ubiquitous app all over the country, not every regional food goes national. What cuisine from YOUR region do you most want to share with the country/world?

I may delete this because it’s a bit spicy but it shouldn’t be lost on us that games being turned into TV is essentially harvesting the stories written by those who don’t have union representation or healthcare with WGA by those that do. Our stories are good enough for TV but the writers aren’t?

I loved Twin Peaks S1 way back when, and I am now watching S2 for the first time so I can watch The Return.
All I have to say is The Return better be worth it.

Deleted a post about “what’s your least favorite song” because the vibes are bad enough already.
Instead: what’s your favorite song that has a long title, say at least 6 words long?
Mine: “Elderly Woman Behind the Counter in a Small Town” (Pearl Jam)

I don't know, maybe HOF voters are making Bill Belichick wait a year for being a repeat cheater. It would not be unprecedented. In fact, it would be very precedented.
