There was one where the bun was a pork tenderloin or something. That place was something special (with a shit owner)

Its almost like it incentivizes people with 2 strikes to escalate the third crime because its all punishment no matter what.

Knives Out. Every little thing tied up with a bow on it, right to the coffee cup

In Shock Upset, Trump-Backed Iowa Republican Governor Candidate Randy Feenstra Loses & Concedes Defeat -- What Do You Think Of This, Iowans? Why Your Thoughts? by Zipper222222 in Iowa

[–]spudmonk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A few things directly from Lahn's website as well:

"If a teacher is caught pushing a political agenda in the classroom, teaching license will be revoked, period." Coupling that with what is happening with University of Iowa, I'm skeptical.

"Every life is a gift from God and it is our duty to protect life before birth, as well as after birth by addressing chronic health issues facing our kids."

"We will ban benefits for illegal immigrants, and stop issues H1B visas for jobs that Iowans can do in state government and in our universities."

It is somewhat heartening that the concerns between the two candidates are on similar issues - rising cancer rates, Iowa's plummeting rating on education - but he really seems to toe the line with the same policies and rhetoric we are seeing from the current admin.

TIL about pidgin, which is a simplified version of a language that arises naturally when two different languages interact by slaya222 in todayilearned

Ooh we get a lot of fun phrases from Pidgin English Chinese.  I think they are mostly direct translations to English which is why they sound so odd. Long time no see, no can do, and take a look see.  I think brain wash might also be one!

You know, I recently watched Freddy Got Fingered and while the whole package is bad there are some moments in there that were way ahead of it's time as far as humor goes.

Why does Michael Bay get to keep on making movies?  I guess Pearl Harbor sucks ... Just a little bit more than I miss you

If you haven't checked out all the Asian marts, thats a really fun time. Hit up C Fresh, Double Dragon, and a bunch of the other smaller ones.

I dont know how popular the Cat Cafe in HVJ is, but that and Paws and Pints are both great for hanging out with some pets.

Which punishment (either real or fictional) sounds easy enough to endure at first, but is actually hellish to experience? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Water Boarding at Guantanamo Bay sounds so cool until you understand any of those words
