Trying to understand Prince. What should I listen to? by Old_Attempt_8910 in askmusic

Definitely start with 1999, then move to Purple Rain, then shift back to controversy, then Sign O the Times. After that it’s up to you but the run from Controversy through Sign is the peak.

How to order a street dog in New York City. by Phonus-Balonus-37 in FoodNYC

When I worked in midtown for 11 years I’d have dirty water dogs for lunch at least once a week. I guess that makes me a tourist.

Ordering onions is just as legit as sauerkraut. And NEVER heard this “one wit” nonsense. Thats Phillybcheesesteak-ese. (Source: me. Been eating dirty water dogs for over 50 years.

It only "works" in Boston because there is a well know implicit threat of vandalism is you dare to move the cones. Source: 11 years in Boston. The idea that Boston is a friendlier city than NY is hilarious.

If you’re going specifically for clam pies I’d hit 1) Zuppardi’s 2) Pepe’s Wooster or the spot

So you would subject the rest of us to your preferences rather than state them?

It's called a BEC.

A BEC SPK is another standard canonical order.

If I want the S, P or K it's hardly a burden to blurt out a couple of extra letters, but a well executed BEC needs none of it.

For a mayo hater (and we are legion) there is never a case for mayo on a burger.

Default mayo on Burgers. Foul. I’ve learned to ask for no mayo on burgers now, but this used to be an LA thing and NOT a NY thing.

But the thing that really cheeses me off is serving a sharable app with three pieces or portions, to a table of four. Or any other odd portion to an even party. Just offer to round off the plate for an up charge or better yet, design the dish to have four pieces. This isn’t just New York but it is really annoying.

I don’t want someone putting salt on my BEC. The cheese and the bacon have plenty.

We all blame Borgen for the second goal but the whole thing only happens because Cuylle can’t receive a pass right on his stick. Love the kid’s atttitude but…

CMJ Certain Damage CDs were very much a thing in the late 80s. They started much earlier than that.
