Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

Abraham "Edition Warrior" Lincoln, shortly before getting killed after he said, "I don't get the big deal about orcs and alignment."

Didn’t his killer say something like “Sic semper pie!” when he attacked?

Or a cut-up hot dog.

I’ve gotten to the point in my Great Sausage Odyssey that I rarely eat true hot dogs anymore.

If I go to a sporting event, I’ll eat them like I was in training for competing in Nathan’s contest. If I’m at a cookout and they’re on the menu, I’ll eat them. I’ll even cook them at home if requested.

But 99 times out of 100, I’m subbing some other kind of sausage link for traditional hotdogs when I’m cooking. Rotwurst, bratwurst, kielbasas, Earl Campbells, Hatch Chile sausages, andouille and so forth are common in our household.

And along with that, we also try different toppings. But we still have the traditional stuff on hand as well.

It's not that you can't find good things in other places. Far from it. But ... the level of competition between the producers, the level of sophistication of the consumers, and the density all combine to make major cities, especially those like New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco, New Orleans ... and even newer places like Miami, Las Vegas and Portland* .... qualitatively different.

Add to that the increased odds involving innovation when someone tries combining elements of 2 or more cuisines.

I’m a New Orleanean by birth, but also an Army Brat. I’ve gotten exposed to a lot of different cuisines over time. And since several of our family’s deployments were in major cities, we’ve gotten our share of commercial or homemade fusions that really worked well: Mexican & Indian, Mexican and Chinese, Indian and Creole, Vietnamese & Creole, Greek & Creole, etc.

AND THAT'S WHY STAR TREK FANS HAVE SO MUCH BEEF WITH THE KELVIN TIMELINE!

you'll pry the imperial system from my cold, dead, James TIBERIUS Kirk-lovin' digits. I got 99 problems, but Fahrenheit ain't one.

Can I offer you one the following instead?

In the original 1e days we referred to Magic Missile as M&Ms

In the original 1e days we referred to Magic Missile as "magic meatballs." I don't remember why, weird sense of humor, I guess.

Going through some rebranding training, and if I have to hear another corporate/IT buzzword I will vomit.

Look, Scribe. If you can just leverage your core competencies to get the low-hanging fruit for some quick wins, you'll have the bandwidth to do a deep dive on our pivot to video.

I don't need push back on this- circle back with me later.
