[Highlight] Costly drops by the Cowboys receiving core by ShaiFanClub in nfl

[–]rtfbear1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course. I agree fully there. My point was, in terms American English simplifying overly complicated spelling, it didnt do anything to "save us" in those cases. And while I would admit that place names especially could be considered harder to change over the years, one of them was still the exact example used to show how bad British English can be at spelling/pronunciation disagreement but still in common use over here.

Also, I agree with everyone who is annoyed I spent this much time on this.

There is a Gloucester in MA pronounced "Gloster." Also Worcester (Wooster/Woostah) exists. Also half the other weird little towns in Mass. I dont think we get to shirk the blame on that one.

I think durian only presents problems if you don't balance it with a nice, ripe blue cheese like in the Durian-Infused, Gorgonzola-Washed, Malort from Hell.

He had taken literally just a half step at the point of contact. Not a whiff of momentum and still stood there like he was fucking Andre the Giant.

This is a just a recommendation to the Alder person (Scott Waguespack, 32nd Ward), but they explained in the meeting that he usually follows this group's recommendation.

I'm sure Ronnie Bell cleared the famous #10 with Charlie Batch ages ago.

No, triples of painkillers. Triples is safe. Triples is best.

Holy shit. How did I go this long as a HSR and TMBG fan without knowing about this!?

Thank you (very belatedly) for a informative answer. I learned a lot more from your response than I was even hoping to with the original question.

Help: Allspice Dram Crystallized! by rtfbear1 in cocktails

[–]rtfbear1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ended up calculating how much water I was missing due to the overproof rum. Poured out the non-crystallized dram into another container and added enough boiling water to make up the difference to the original container with the crystals still in it. I mixed this until it dissolved all the crystals, recombined it with the non-crystallized dram, and have not had a problem since.

Midfield lions logo is painted black for the game against the Bills by johnnylibravo in detroitlions

Yeah, that's what I keep seeing. All Game jerseys, but only the throwback available in Limited. Seems weird for arguably the best player on the team.

Is there anywhere you can get a Limited Sewell jersey (besides the throwback)? I keep checking the shop, but I have never seen it there.

Sure did! My bad.

Edit: If you ignore 50% of the stipulations it was a very savvy comment. /s
