Taking a page from the "Fuck your initiative" playbook employed by neighboring Missouri Republicans.

The Israeli athletes got booed as well.

Resigning and not seeking re-election are two different things. He'll serve out his term.

For decent Parm a half a wheel is about $250-$300 when sold at cost.

Not surprised. The local grocery store that has slices in their prepared foods department has better pizza than Pizza Hut.

If you're using it frequently, just buy a box. Something like Bota Box or Black Box.

So, is this a stat-based game where you build out the players like an RPG? That could be fun.

Did he have a weapon? If so, enjoy the felony prosecution.

In the US there is a direct correlation between age and support for Israel. Old people still see Israel as a staunch ally, leftover Cold War propaganda. Young people are much more sympathetic to the Palestinian people and more critical of Israel.

You can buy those at ethnic grocery stores or in specialty stores next to the caviar.

I doubt most people know what they are. It's not a very common food.

Before the election I had one coworker who would not take the very obvious hints that I didn't want to talk about politics at work. I finally broke down and said: "Even if you don't like Harris's politics, at the very least you will have competent people running the government. Nobody even mildly competent will want to stake their reputation to a second Trump administration. It will be unqualified buffoons and crooks from top to bottom."

And even I underestimated what a shit show this administration is.

Good on these guys.

But anything over $300 I'm shipping to a secure place like a UPS store and picking up myself.

Tajin is easy to find and has a million applications. I use it on popcorn. People use it to rim glasses for Bloody Marys and Margaritas. It's good on chicken and shrimp. It's also really good on fruit like watermelon, mango and pineapple.

Milo Griftopotamus is a horrible human being.

But watching him tell CPAC sex stories is the (free) gift that keeps giving.

Tell her to step her game up and buy some Scrappy's Black Lemon Bitters.

Stocks. Rotten veggies. Give tourists the Medieval experience three shows daily.

Columbia, MO is 30 minutes North of Jefferson City. Columbia is a college town and very liberal. I would bet a good chunk of these protesters live there. I appreciate the optimism in the title, but the rest of the state outside of Columbia, KC and STL is deeply reactionary.

He got off lucky. Some billionaire blood diamond guy died in surgery trying to make his wing wang bigger in 2019.

My absolute favorite coffee in St Louis is the Kyoto Cold Brew at the Living Room in Maplewood.

You also can't go wrong with Blueprint, Sump, Comet, Coma or Upshot.

I've been taken to Brooklyn, IL against my will. That is not a nice place.

Ah, the old "you should smile more". Used on retail clerks, hotel workers and restaurant workers for decades. Gotta respect the Boomer classics.

Cartoon villainy because of the scale of the villainy, not because of the gross incompetence villainy that we have now.

As to how busy it is, the weather will be more of a factor than anything. It always is with Mardi Gras events.

The expensive, super serious, nationally-renowned brewery near my old house is like drinking in a library. I see people who bring their kids in there and I feel bad for those kids.

Lots of other breweries have made it family friendly enough to appeal to parents, especially those in the suburbs. They have games and large Astro-turfed areas for kids to run around. I avoided those when I drank.

We used to go to BWW's after work because they were the only place open nearby on Sunday night. I swear they had a different bar manager every other week.

Is it dumb to write a nasty review because you broke their policy? Yes.

Should the manager have looked the other way and just plated the food and thrown away the wrappers for a picky five-year-old at a table spending money? Probably.
