Cactus Ghost: Dec 20, 2003; you can actually inflate your scrote pretty safely with sterile saline, syringes, needles, and aseptic technique. its a niche kink iirc

the saline just slowly gets absorbed into your blood but in the meantime you got a big round smooth distended nutsack

How come people argue about what the best or worst pizza is but nobody has these arguments about sandwiches?

Where is the passion for the sandwich

Unless they are steak sandwiches. If you diss those I'll stab you.

Is a hot dog a sandwich?

What about pork buns, does the meat being able to get inside the meat bun without the bread which contains it needing to be separated disqualify it from sandwich status?

Would cutting a pork bun in half along it's horizontal axis turn it into a sandwich?

All pork buns do is burn the gently caress out of my tongue.

Also, pineapple on pizza is great when your piepusher has less than stellar hygienic practices and you just want something from a can that's used in high volumes so it's reasonably fresh.

On the topic of food, I made this salmon with kidney bean salad yesterday and the effort/brownie points ratio was definitely attractive. If you have a sous vide (or even if you don't) try it!

Plus, he'd left the gate open and there was evil everywhere.

Pre-Sky English TV news always has this horrifying found-footage quality to it.

I especially dig the giant nametag instead of onscreen graphics.

I think the Stratos looks better on fire as a matter of principle, but that's not a popular opinion.

Considering it was the cheapest/best vehicle on last summer's rally I'm inclined to agree. The FB would probably have done well if it didn't try to do its best impression of a gardener.
