I thought the idea of Trump getting impeached or being a total gently caress up was just my mega progressive wishful thinking. Im coming around to the fact that he may not make it through his first term with some of his business bullshit. He is doing real harm to Americans and others though and that sucks.

He can't be impeached without his own party turning against him. The idea of what he would have to do the get the GOP to impeach him is loving terrifying.

Pence is a religious nut that wants to electrocute gays into being straight and ban all abortions and force women to hold funeral services for the fetus if they have a stillbirth. Still probably better than Trump.

Pence doesn't believe in evolution but I don't think that has any effect on his reign/vice presidency.

Initially I thought he would be the same or worse, but Trump is doing a lot of really bizarre stuff that "normal" Republican presidents probably wouldn't do*. Normal Republicans are constrained by the fact that they have to at least maintain the veneer of responsibility and sanity, but Trump seems a lot more...active than I was expecting him to be. * For example the fact that he seems like he's going to continue trying to build the wall, or the literally insane voter fraud investigation stuff. Or the thing with freezing EPA grants/contracts. Or the fact he's still talking about cutting US funding to the UN. There's a lot of stuff I was hoping was just campaign talk, but it seems he's actually trying to follow through with it.

Eh, that wall stuff is the least insane part of his platform, it was a bullet point for every past president including Bill Clinton, and it effectively already exists, except it's a wall of men and patrol cars rather than concrete. The really worrying thing is that he will sign anything the Congress Republicans bring to him so he can get back to tweeting about TV shows. steinrokkan has a new favorite as of 11:10 on Jan 28, 2017 |

Worcester flavour crisps are legit, shout to to tomato ketchup which are repulsive to some but to me Salt and Vinegar is the king of the crisp flavours and has been since I was a wee lad. Ready salted is fine but not as a normal packet of crisps, more useful for a bit of crunch in a salad or maybe in a crisp sandwich when you come home baked at 2am

The only chip worth eating aside from regular salted chip is salt & vinegar. The lame kettle cooked chips that claim to be salt and vinegar don't count, they are bad. If your mouth isn't in mild pain after eating a few handfuls it's not salty+vinegary enough.

"Hardcore" crisp eaters are the worst. Right along with people who have to eat the spiciest thing on the menu, and then bitch when it's edible.

I do love salt & vinegar chips, along with original. I'll try any awful sounding chip flavors, except for biscuits and gravy chips..seriously, i'm in the south, there's biscuits and gravy anywhere you go.

I don't really like most of the novelty flavours (I remember when I was in primary school we got free packets of baked beans flavoured crisps for Red Nose Day) but Tayto did these "hometown" limited edition brands: Ulster fry, curry chips and vegetable roll. The first two weren't bad but the veggie roll ones were minging.

For what it's worth, the banana + cheese combo is pretty interesting. I recommend everyone try it. I'll probably have it again. It's like peanut butter and pickles: not super great, but certainly interesting and decent.
