You know how the paint stirring sticks you get free from the HW store when you get a bucket of paint have that little curved in section? It's not there to just be the "handle", it also helps you scrape paint of out the roller: http://i.imgur.com/a6C5kjc.mp4

I think that's more a convenient coincidence, not design. Paint stir sticks, when I was a kid, were round dowels.

Jason Sudeikis and Ed Helms are two different people. I saw the end of We're the Miller's on a muted TV and thought they were doing a gimmick with the same guy playing two characters for a moment until I realized they had slightly different faces.

Box wine (goon) is also rather high on the list due to being able to gently caress yourself up on the cheap.

For a long time rum was the only spirit distilled here (only recently was any other spirit distilled and they are mega expensive mircos anyway, rum is common still). Bundaberg rum, inner circle rum and beenleigh rum That said, Mt Gay is one of the better rums (better than aussie rum), and a good buy @ $40 if you can find it at that price. Sadly often priced much higher and you may as well by cheaper white spirits or whisky/ey as there's no such thing as a cheap rum worth drinking these days.

rydiafan posted:I'm an American, and I've never seen "lede" in my life. I have; I've actually never seen 'bury the lead'. It's usually in the context of an article with an attention-grabbing headline that doesn't tell the actual facts until the fifth paragraph. I've heard that 'lede' was adopted because it's hard to confuse with a soft heavy metal like 'lead' might be, but I don't know if that's true or just a folk etymology.

If it makes you feel any better I was embarrassed to admit it but I figured if I didn't source it someone would be like "I too watched the Walking Dead tonight ". That's my cool story. e: and I was background watching with the volume off and the subs on so I could watch youtube videos vv

Box wine (goon) is also rather high on the list due to being able to gently caress yourself up on the cheap. I'm Australian and I think Bundaberg rum was the first spirit I ever tried as a kid. Of course I moved on to Woodstock pretty quickly because it was so much cheaper but rum was always around. There was even a period in the mid 2000s where pubs had Bundaberg rum and coke on tap which was both amazing and awful.

It's cropping up all over at the moment with the "lede" spelling; it's probably only a matter of time before you see it (you 100% definitely will if you go to the r/relationships thread).

My friend and I went to Home Depot tonight and ended up in the aisle where they sell hand torches. I've owned and used a bunch of these in my life, had the torches and cans hanging out in my shop, walked down that aisle at Home Depot a hundred times. Tonight, I noticed the R in the brand name for the first time. I pointed it out to my friend, who agreed that he'd always thought it was BENZ-omatic. (Like benzene, like a chemical thing? I dunno, it made enough sense that I believed it my whole life.) We Googled to see if maybe it was a recent addition, but nope. It's been spelled Bernzomatic since the company was founded 140 goddamn years ago. It's been this way since before the advent of powered flight. Surely, we thought, that's just a silly spelling of BURNS because haha get it, fire burns stuff. But nope, the company was founded by a guy named Bernz - 140 years ago! It twists my melon.
