How are they going to make “Monster Mash” a movie? It’s obviously a mystery/thriller about whatever happened to the Transylvania Twist.

Someone recently asked me when I got into reading/watching cannibal and vampire stuff and while I'm not entirely sure, I did spend my whole childhood doing a ritual every Sunday where we ate a dude and drank his blood so that was probably it.

I made a Covid/flu vaccine appointment at a CVS inside a Target. Checked the box stating I had an underlying condition. Received vaccine without issue. So if you want one, I guess try that.
Oh, and if you’re gonna tell me vaccines are bad, ef off.

As someone who bakes, I’m aware that there are usually dowels inside tiered cakes. So like… has anyone gouged their new spouse’s eye out smashing their face in a cake?

I think Millennials think they look young because growing up, 30+ adults were depicted as decrepit. We don’t look or feel that way, which is why people who look like a healthy 35 or 40 say they look 28.
Also confusing: 27-yos on TV playing high school sophomores.

Smart glasses may seem silly but as someone who lost my near vision following surgery, I tried these XReal glasses that plug into a computer and I think they would fix my posture. I am always hunched over just to see the screen clearly.

At this point, why not take our world’s 4th largest economy and leave? Everything has become so silly.
The Trump administration is preparing to cancel a large swath of federal funding for California, an effort which could begin as soon as Friday, according to multiple sources.

must be incredibly frustrating and disheartening to have federal funding that was promised to you for important work suddenly and arbitrarily ripped away

I love the Boss, but if a man told me “you ain’t a beauty, but, hey, you’re alright,” I simply would not get in his car.

The look of irritation on my face was so palpable that the bartender asked me if I needed to vent. I do not, but this is what I miss about bartending. No $22 craft cocktails, just pouring a beer or a whiskey and asking someone if they want to complain at me. I hope to bartend as an old lady someday.

I imagine that every morning in the White House begins with a performance of the “Gaston” song from BEAUTY & THE BEAST and no one is allowed to start work until it’s done.

This is so interesting. There was one of these dudes in a restaurant forum I was in cuz I used to do food writing and I found him INSUFFERABLE. Hmmm!
Meet the NRA. No, not the National Rifle Association. The National Restaurant Association. They're in the business of killing... local restaurants.
Why big chains thrived while small restaurants died
How the National Restaurant Association bent the government to the will of the corporate behemoths—and left workers in the dust.
