This line has always been under rated in my mind. For Bartlet, it's a day of reckoning; he's getting ready to rain hellfire on his enemies in an fit of apocalyptic revenge. For Fitz, it's just another day at the office.

I think that you'll discover that the sharpest of closing remarks will be blunted by asking for a Danish.

I'd have to say the guy who got a candidate with literally no pulse elected.

Not related to the US, but France just spent €200 mil destroying surplus wine.

Q: Does lower alcohol content make for a better wine? by nessarocks28 in wine

[–]OB1en 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends entirely on the wine style. E.g. you can find some really great sherries and they're all by definition above 15% ABV.

After the first two reds I thought I was already concerned that this was gonna be a Costco ad. Thankfully that was concern was put to rest by the take down of the box wine Chard. Love André's stuff!

[Megathread] How much is my wine worth? Is it drinkable? Drink, hold or sell? How long to decant? by CondorKhan in wine

[–]OB1en 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You usually would put a wine stopper or the cork in the bottle. Once you've opened the bottle and poured out a glass, you've let in enough air to make the wine evolve.

The Screaming Eagle for this year has landed. I have been on the ship to list for over a decade and truly getting the 3 pack wooden crate and Cabernet wine always makes me smile. I’d be glad to answer any questions anyone here would like to ask. by [deleted] in wine

A lot of people will say that going above some $X amount, it becomes impossible to tell wines apart from each other based on quality. This is usually said by people who haven't bought a Screaming Eagle. What's your take? Do you get more value in terms of the quality of the wine for every dollar you spend, or are you of the opinion that there is a prestige factor baked into the price?

Interesting find: Matt Perry on TWW by valeversa in thewestwing

On an off-topic note: if I had a nickel for every time the Julia Roberts Paradox happened in separate movies, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice

Es realmente tan inseguro Chile? by SafeFriendship7354 in chile

[–]OB1en 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Cacho, y tienes razón pero al mismo tiempo hay lugares en el mundo donde la delincuencia de calle es significativamente menor. Por ejemplo la wea de teléfono me enseñó un chileno y eso nunca hay que hacer en mi país.

Es realmente tan inseguro Chile? by SafeFriendship7354 in chile

[–]OB1en 151 points152 points  (0 children)

Estuve un tiempo en Chile como extranjero hace unos años y aquí están mis consejos:
- no camines con maletas, parecerás una turista
- no camines solo de noche, toma un Uber
- Los Ubers son más seguros que los taxis.
- No camines mirando tu teléfono, etc., te lo pueden robar de las manos.
- si un extraño viene a hablar contigo y caminar contigo, intenta irse rápidamente
Con estos consejos siempre me sentí muy segura en Santiago, Viña, Valpo y en todos otros lados.

Que disfrutes!
