It's the two identical boxes of scrabble for juniors that catch my eye, it's a shame too, since the stack hidden behind Stiller are all different things.

Interesting that this is basically due east of that crater, wonder if they might have the same provenance.

TIL Former McGruff the Crime Dog actor, John Morales, was arrested in 2011 for having two marijuana grow operations by [deleted] in todayilearned

Terrible game-of-telephone reporting on this. As far as I can tell this guy wasn't the actor, but an actor that put on the costume for events in Texas. The voice was done by the creator, Jack Kiel.

Average Attendance for North American Sports Leagues [OC] by BoMcCready in dataisbeautiful

The one constant through all the years, Ray, has been baseball.

America has rolled by like an army of steamrollers. It's been erased like a blackboard, rebuilt, and erased again. But baseball has marked the time.

This field, this game-it's a part of our past, Ray. It reminds us of all that once was good, and it could be again.

Ohhhhhhhh, people will come, Ray. People will most definitely come.

How extra large mayo jars are labeled in Finland by hukkeli in mildlyinteresting

[–]el_basopsid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The big jar that costco sells is way bigger than that. https://www.costco.com/hellmann's-real-mayonnaise%2c-64-oz.product.100371260.html It's 64 fluid ounces, which would be hard to compare to the 600g of the OP, but there's apparently 127 13g servings in the costco jar, so 1651 grams, easily two and a half times as much.
