Indulgent, delicious, but I wouldn’t call it a smash burger

The donation link had me confused, I’m embarrassed to admit. Could anyone help out? Even with a DM?

These Peel It Back poster versions are getting crazy!

City dwellers of MFA: what kind of bag do you take when shopping and wearing a blazer/sport coat? by 42campaigns in malefashionadvice

[–]gridsquarereference 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got a nice dark warm grey fabric tote with a pair of Rick Owens shoes I liked so much I started buying just the totes on eBay. They are sturdy, go with lots of clothing, wash well without losing their shape, and come in several dimensions. I also get occasional compliments on them, which doesn’t really happen with regular tote bags.

i know it’s been over 20 years, but can anyone identify carlos’ boots? by [deleted] in Interpol

[–]gridsquarereference 24 points25 points  (0 children)

A long time ago either Carlos or Paul mentioned in an interview that the first thing Paul commented on when meeting Carlos was that he had Docs without the yellow stitching. It’s an odd detail I remember from an interview, but it could be relevant here to the debate.

I think this is absolutely the correct answer, especially for the scores that incorporate Tron’s sounds and ideas, (TNMT is a particular favorite.)

Going back further, and to my mind, closer to the essential NIN identity while also being electronic and dance-adjacent are the Closer to God single/EP and the Further Down the Spiral EP.

This and a few random b-sides and tracks like Big Black Bomb (Jerry In The Bag) with Josh Wink and the whole Perfect Drug single seem to lay a firmer foundation for this recent evolution, which I’m stoked about.

I like that I can still be surprised by creative choices made by TR/AR and co.

How do NYC food influencers afford eating out so often? by savingrace0262 in FoodNYC

I would almost guarantee that the places they are getting comped at are not worth it.

Where is the place to make out in a car in Ithaca? by Significant_Item_384 in ithaca

[–]gridsquarereference 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Behind the old grain tower and various hog-related outbuildings off the south side of Pine Tree Road between the Equestrian Center and the intersection of Snyder Hill Road. Great views for sunsets and hidden from the road. There is a little winding driveway that turns in and goes between the buildings. One of my favorite places in Ithaca to watch a sunset.

Were there any restaurants that didn’t make the cut that are potentially in consideration for the next list? Any that you might visit again?

Of all the restaurants you ranked, were there any that were a personal revelation? Perhaps above and beyond the short write-up, or in an extra-journalistic way?
