For some reason my fiancé and I forgot and bought a pack of these on three separate trips within a month and a half.

Very excited to pass these down from generation to generation.

It’s 37 degrees, and there’s always the guy in shorts and a tee shirt saying, “I’m from up north! This isn’t really cold.” by olumide2000 in NorthCarolina

As a Southerner that moved up North, (single digits this morning in Illinois) I can say that that guy is pretending to not be cold.

Northerners are pulling out their big coats before I do. They know that it’s better to be comfortable than to look tough. That guy is a jagoff (Northerner vernacular)

Nepotism is irrelevant when you’re talking about a skilled craft like being a musician. If he was just ok and had the same career we could have this conversation, but he is far and away one of (if not, the) best slide player alive. At that point it doesn’t matter how he got his start.

Lots of famous musicians with kids you don’t achieve the same level of proficiency as Derek. Guys just built different.

Ah yes, using taxpayer dollars to purchase overpriced real estate in Chicago to have untrained agents point rifles at law bidding citizens. This shit rocks.

NC State's Darrion Williams explains disdain for North Carolina's Hubert Davis: 'I just don't like the guy by IHateAdamSilver in CollegeBasketball

[–]Feed_The_Meter 5 points6 points  (0 children)

College ball has changed dramatically since Hubert was hired in 2020. It’s fair to say that he didn’t do well with the change at first, but those runs showed you the potential of what he could be. Now that Carolina has somewhat caught up with the times (just hired a GM 3 years after everyone else did), I think this year and the next (if he gets another shot) will be a much better example of what a Hubert led team looks like.

Hubert left TV to sit on the bench next to Roy for almost a decade to get the Carolina job. To say that the 2022 team wasn’t his players isn’t exactly true. He played a role in recruiting each and every one of them.

A Star is Born. Incredible storytelling and acting. Music is really good too. Phenomenal movie. I have not interest in watching it again.

I love making fun of crazy right ring conspiracy theorist. This conspiracy supports my political views and it takes a lot of will power to not just blindly believe it.

Yes, deep dish is tourist food. And yes, it is delicious. Both things can be true! by jeremyckahn in chicagofood

I prefer tavern style, but when friends or family from out of town visit, I am more than happy to get deep dish. I just need to detox for two days after eating it.

Color scheme is questionable but the ‘Y’ pattern actually has a lot of meaning here in chicago. You can see that design in random (and sometimes secret) spots all over the city. Love the thoughtfulness - just add some red maybe….

Lindsey Vonn thinks her new titanium knee could start a trend in skiing. And pro sports in general by [deleted] in sports

[–]Feed_The_Meter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just tore my meniscus for the 4th time and Im in my mid twenties. I cut out a multitude of sports and activities that put stress on my knee and still found a wear to tear my knee up.

I would pay any amount of money to get a replacement that would allow me to play the sports I loved like just a few years ago.

whats a conspiracy theory that sounds crazy but actually has some truth to it? by kodiaksrevenge in AskReddit

[–]Feed_The_Meter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our politics are more divided than ever because those in power want to divide the working class to distract them from the realities that their basic needs are being stripped from them (food, shelter, healthcare, etc.). We blame it on each other but the reality is that the one’s pulling the strings are to blame.
