That describes one of our locations to a T. We drive to one slightly farther away to avoid that. However, the last time I was in THAT one, they were NOT having a good day.

I love a good pretzel, almost regardless of form. (I just bought some hand-sized ones from a local German bakery today.) A bakery van used to drive across the American base we lived on in Germany, and we’d get a bunch of their long rolls (6”-8”, as I recall)- best thing for a ham & Swiss...

Best burger for me came from an Irish Pub in Irving, Tx. They made theirs with Guinness. Unfortunately, the owner had a…loose relationship with the law, and he closed his pub the day after St. Patrick’s. (Without paying his past-due rent, taxes, etc.) As for making & storing them at home, I...

That’s a good one, and would probably fit the visual aesthetic of the source material marginally better than something like the Winged template.

To be fair, a goodly chunk of at least the old pharmaceuticals are just refined and precisely measured versions of old folk/herbalist remedies. Their processing efforts make it much easier to get to therapeutic dosages safely while reducing risks of accidental overdoses or interactions with...

As mentioned, most of the time I eat a burger, it’s a single patty- typically 1/4 to 1/3 of a pound. But one of the better burger places near me, that’s a “Lady” burger- their regular ones are 1/2 lb (and broad, not tall). And honestly, this dude might start ordering the smaller ones. As...

I’d say it is a burger, but it’s also a P.I.T.A. 😜

I prefer single patties over doubles; broad over tall. I have enjoyed non-meat burgers, but have had minor allergic reactions to all of them with the exception of straight-up large portobello mushroom caps. I’ve enjoyed a bunch of different toppings and condiments on my burgers and burger...

Mod Note: I’ve mentioned this before, but this thread is NOT for grave dancing. That includes emoji use. Some decorum please: you don’t have to eulogize anyone mentioned here, but if you don’t like a particular person getting announced here, keep it to yourself.

Oracle? If only someone had looked into the future…

In our house, we call those callers “Peggys”, calling back to an old Discover Card ad campaign: And of course, Peggy has a Wiki page. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peggy_(Discover_Card)

Been “Captain Kirk”-ing clankers for years- mostly the ones that call me on the phone. When I ID a spam caller as some form of automaton, my communications get weirder. Occasionally I’d just talk in a foreign language. I’ve asked them to confirm their shoe size. I’ve sung “The Space Hippo”...

I’m trying to member the various ways PCs can gain the power of fight BESIDES Arcane or Divine spells for a Gamera-inspired character. So templates, feats, base class/prestige class abilities, alternative class features, alternative casting (like psionics or Incarnum), etc. are what I’m looking...

One of my favorite appetizers in a chain restaurant is Boston’s Bacon Wrapped Steak Skewers. They’re served with a creamy blue cheese (CBC) sauce for dipping. The combination is so good that my Mom & my best friend love it despite both of them disliking blue cheese. One time, I asked a server...

Mistaken identity in law enforcement is a scary thing. As I recall, it was 2 completely unrelated guys who got locked up at Leavenworth that led accelerated adoption of fingerprinting in the USA. They had the same name, and looked enough like each other that people who knew them mixed them up...

Clearly ( 😜 ) you’re my arch-nemesis now, “Mr. Clean”!

Bob Trumpy has passed. https://www.yahoo.com/sports/article/nfl-player-trailblazing-broadcaster-dead-152807222.html

Oh, I’m well aware of the rise of DNA, data tracking, etc. defeating the efforts of criminals who own gloves!😜 As for adermatoglyphia? Well, it’s possible I have a mild version of it or something similar. As mentioned, my hands ARE pretty dry. They rarely get sweaty, even when I exercise...
