Tbf, I think radio absolutely used to be better before iheart and their ilk bought fucking everything and turned every goddamn station into a hypersanitized prepackaged mix of the same 10 bloody songs over and over. Therefore, by extension, I could 100% see how someone basing their opinion on what actually gets radio play could easily arrive at the conclusion that music is worse now.
This just feels like either
A. He doesn’t fully get what satire is and assumes it has to be lighthearted or
B. He’s using “provocative” to basically mean “clickbait, but I’m too pretentious to call it that”
Honestly in a use case like family photos, redoing it every x amount of time is probably a good idea anyway so new ones can be added.
Years ago when I worked at Taco Bell someone got fired because the manager walked in on him snorting coke off the bags of strawberry they used to put on top of the fruitista freezes in the walk-in.
Also some asshole pulled a gun in drive thru during my shift because he ordered extra cheese on his 7 layer nachos and apparently did not get adequate cheese.
The spicy Thai chili one is really good on rice, too. I usually add some sriracha mayo on top and call it a poor man’s poke bowl.
They can include the bath water for half price so you can make soup!

I used to work at a jewelers. A good quality moissanite is gonna be as close to an actual diamond you can get without getting an actual diamond if that’s what you’re looking for.
As far as metals, gold is the traditional choice but sterling is both less expensive and more durable. If you do go with gold, I would opt for 14 kt over 18 kt personally. The higher the karat number, the purer the gold, which sounds like a good thing but from a practical standpoint is a bit of a PITA because this in effect means higher karats are both more expensive and more fragile because gold is soft. Since typically an engagement ring is worn every day, something that can handle some wear and tear is a plus.
For settings, look for something fairly low with prongs that have a decent heft to them. Tall settings bump into shit ALL THE TIME and eventually the prongs tens to shift and the stone goes flying (again, gold is soft).
Also, look at her other jewelry and talk to her about what her tastes are. There’s no rule that says it “has to be” anything if a more standard ring isn’t her thing. Going with her favorite color or her birthstone and working from there can be a good option.
While it’s definitely PRESENT in Lord of the Rings, one could argue Frodo himself is a subversion of it. Giving the ring to someone powerful would almost inevitably result in corrupting them and (depending on just how powerful they were) would just make a new big bad. Hobbits work as ring bearers explicitly because they’re not “special”.
I’d argue the Balrog was more Durin’s people’s doing. Fellowship pretty much just wandered into a clusterfuck already in progress there.
Not as far as “dumb” per se but I would accept “less smart” in exchange for physical buttons and a removable battery.
Well, I would presume not for very long anyway
Yeah, realistically this hypothetical person just grabbed eggs while they were at the Wawa. Nobody goes on a whole ass Costco run when they were already making dinner just for fucking eggs.
My best guess is he’s technically her half brother: OOP’s mother (daughter of the grandma in question) + OOP’s father’s father = OOP’s bruncle-husband. In turn, this would make Cletus the Fetus OOP’s nephew/niece, aunt/uncle, cousin, and stepchild. We’re wandering into medieval royalty levels of incest here.
There was Big Bob’s Beepers on Hey Arnold.
This is the none pizza left beef of sandwiches
There were definitely a lot of kids ones in the early 90s that were basically the glasses in the OP but in an assortment of colors. My first pair was a purple and white speckled version of the 80s “serial killer” glasses.
Honestly for baked goods bananas will do the job quite well
Tbf it’s technically just part of a town and not an actual town but there is Mianus CT
I’m guessing whatever it scraped to generate this was intended for divvying up food rather than doing actual math. 1/3 plus a third of a third is close enough to a half if you’re talking about portioning out pizza or leftovers or what have you.
