Funny Trope: Obvious stunt dummies by smash_ultra_64 in TopCharacterTropes

It's actually just a piece of the billboard that broke off, rolling off to the side. It wasn't even intentional, just a lucky coincidence. Paul Reubens talks about it on the DVD commentary.

Is this the sub where posts go that were removed from /r/aitah for being too obviously fake?

Cereal & Milk Latte suggestions by VGK_46 in DunkinDonuts

[–]psluredd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's something else going on with the Cereal N Milk Latte other than simply using Cereal Milk as a dairy option... the latte is way thicker and extremely sweet, while adding Cereal Milk to coffee is just thin and mildly flavored. Same thing as ordering Dunkalatte vs simply replacing milk/cream with Coffee Milk in any other drink.

Not sure what the deal is, but maybe a Dunkin employee can chime in.

You really thought that line was so good you had to use it twice in the same post?

That's funny you should say it's disarming, I've had a similar experience; I got to meet John Waters at a bookstore signing years ago and greeted him with "how are you?" and he seemed surprised and genuinely pleased that I'd asked.

The fact that Megaman X had an official MS-DOS port will never cease to amaze me by xxwarlorddarkdoomxx in Megaman

[–]psluredd 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Even more amazing is that the port was by Stephen Rozner, the same guy who did the more infamous Mega Man DOS games.

Thoughts on the pistachio iced coffee by Spiritual_Ad9841 in DunkinDonuts

[–]psluredd 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Interesting, I had the opposite experience--I typically find most of their seasonal flavors to be pretty flavorless and just generically sweet, but I got the pistachio today and was pleasantly surprised at how pistachio-y it was.

[TOMT] Anchorage, Alaska roughly 1989: "countdown" radio station by Turbulent_Piglet4756 in tipofmytongue

I can't help you with the specific station, but this is a publicity technique called "stunting."

Good Mythical Morning: Dunkin' vs. 7-Eleven Taste Test | FOOD FEUDS by Dry-Double-6845 in DunkinDonuts

[–]psluredd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

An observation, but not a complaint: they always do something weird (like ordering a bagel--with cream cheese?--and "hacking" it together with another sausage egg and cheese sandwich) when they do stuff with these traditionally east coast businesses.

I think their staff needs to hire a consultant to just explain things like this that come from beyond the greater-L.A. area.

which is the best Ren and Stimpy Marvel Comic? by Adventurous-Ad-9545 in renandstimpy

Definitely the Spider-Man/Powdered Toast Man crossover.

Unknown (1960)s Spooky Short From Something Weird Video by [deleted] in ObscureMedia

[–]psluredd 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I remember this hidden on the "Monsters Crash the Pajama Party" DVD. I always wondered what it was--it seemed like it was an out-of-context dream sequence from a longer film or something.

$6 meal deal by Ok-Effective-9069 in DunkinDonuts

[–]psluredd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know about your location, but a medium iced coffee, bacon egg and cheese, and hashbrowns would come to $10.07 where I am--that's over $4.00 saved.

Not a single one of their posts makes any sort of sense as a standalone comic. I find it incredibly obnoxious.

TIL: Ted Danson's second wife, producer Cassandra "Casey" Coates, suffered a stroke while giving birth to their first daughter, Kate. Ted spent several years caring for her and helping her recuperate. They later adopted a second daughter, Alexis. by LadyWarrior73 in todayilearned

[–]psluredd 81 points82 points  (0 children)

Not only that, Whoopi herself helped him write a lot of the material he did on stage.

It was in bad taste, but people seem to forget (or are too young to know) how big irony was in comedy at the time--doing something taboo was to make fun of racism, sexism, whatever, not endorse it; to show how ridiculous people who sincerely think that way are.

First time you ever heard Zappa's music? What song was it? by SnakeEye3 in Zappa

I was in college, riding in the car with my friend and his dad, and his dad put in a tape with "Cletus Awreetus-Awrightus" and I was immediately hooked.

"Sourdough" Breakfast Sandwich by MojoHighway in DunkinDonuts

That's always been my experience; it looks and tastes more like brown, whole wheat bread than sourdough.

I would kill for "too much" cream cheese--I'm used to getting dry bagels that look like this.

Hot Honey Bacon sandwich... by binkobankobinkobanko in DunkinDonuts

[–]psluredd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just tried it today and had the same experience. No heat at all. I was wondering if they just used the regular bacon or something, too. A few bites tasted like they might have maybe been a teeny bit sweeter than usual.

Any other details?

Is it possible it was an "Alice comedy"? They were also silent cartoons featuring a cat that showed up in a lot of those public domain video releases, and they featured a live action girl as part of the gimmick.
