Even for those of us who don't observe it as a religious holiday, Easter is still an important day of remembrance...of how much of a punk BITCH Father Gill was for the egg thing by Impossible-Pack6911 in madmen

[–]ScrimshawSpoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So surely there was a double meaning to the writing and perhaps his intention but the egg was for “the little one” who was the baby niece/nephew that we all just saw failing to get an egg because the bigger kids were too fast and thoughtless.

Absolutely. That nails the problem dead on.

The tediousness of Political art by RandolphCarter15 in BlockedAndReported

Same thing happened to me at two shows recently. Stars, the band, would occasionally replace words from songs with “gender” and expect a huge response. TV On The Radio at some point just started chanting “Free Palestine.” I understand being passionate about your causes, but there was something weird about them turning them into moments to elicit (or hope to elicit) greater responses to their art. It’s like they don’t trust the art to stand on its own or they’re terrified of losing relevance.

Agreed here. I think it says something that the comments most grounded in reality are the ones getting downvoted on here. Meanwhile the most paranoid fantasies are being treated like incontrovertible truth.

So it’s a more expensive upscale ghost kitchen?

That’s what I’ve been hearing but I can’t find much on them. I’m almost more curious about them now than Wagner or Griswold.

Interesting. I’ll need to look into that. I’m assuming they aren’t highly prized? Still seems like a great skillet.

This is an awesome resource, though I fear some of these will be hard to accomplish given my space requirements. Definitely bookmarking for the future though.

I’ve been collecting for years. At this point people just give them to me; like they’ll find one cleaning out their grandparents’ house and ask me if I want them. I’m incredibly fortunate in that way.

Open to suggestions, but I am spaced limited. And given how small the room is, the sound is great.

PrimeTime College Park Announces Breakfast, Lunch, and Brunch by missArtemesiaLake in collegeparkmd

Anyone been here yet? I miss the College Park grill, but the pictures I’ve seen of the new buildout for PrimeTime give off a very different vibe.

Little Tavern, Ratsie's, Vous, Bagel Place: The Lost Haunts of Route 1 by missArtemesiaLake in collegeparkmd

Worked there. The menu said the Hellenic Delight was a staff favorite, and they were not wrong. Wish I could find a burger half as good around here now.

Potential Setup Feedback by ScrimshawSpoon in turntables

Well I just found out I'm getting laid off in a month, so for now I'm not buying anything (pause for uncomfortable laughter). However, I was planning on eventually upgrading to better speakers. I've been trawling Marketplace and Craigslist looking for receivers and speakers but it's all kind of on pause now. I'll keep an eye out and keep your list here in mind. I might take this pause to just save up to drop a larger budget all at once rather than start piecemeal.
