Coca-Cola originally was laced with actual cocaine. They stop doing that when cocaine became illegal.

coca cola was a non-alcoholic variant of a local knockoff of the extraordinarily popular vin mariani a european "patent medicine" that was basically just wine mixed with cocaine. the inventor of coke made his own cocaine wine until alcohol was banned in atlanta, then eventually he took the cocaine out too when that became unpopular

I think you might be confusing the ex-google dude and Yonatan Zunger.

Capitalizing Black is a not-uncommon grammatical and/or, uh, woke thing. It's been a while since I read an explanation and I can't be bothered to google it. :v:

Just cause the dude likes fried food doesn't make him a petty amoral douchebag like Trump.

Like the dude wouldn't be a good president but saying he is the same as Trump is just so loving mean.

I guess...I don't know anything about the guy personally, just that the food he features on his show makes my intestines roil in terror.

as someone who lives in the same area as Guy Fieri he actually does philanthropic stuff in the area, so that's good.

his restaurants sucked tho.

also there are some reports of him being homophobic and stuff, but this area is pretty lgbtq friendly, so that's pretty surprising to me. :shrug:

I wouldn't mind the guy in the abstract if he was just man vs. food - ing his way across America a la Diners and Dives and if I didn't watch shows via streaming.

The problem is twofold:

1) watch more than one or two of his shows in a row and it starts to feel like you're just watching a 1990s Mountain Dew commercial on endless loop -- EXTREME AMAZING

2) He starts to pretend that eating a few deep-fried burgers with chipotle sauce makes him an actual chef, no, it doesn't, he isn't, comb your drat hair

also I reflexively dislike anyone with frosted tips

My favorite Bourdain episode is the one where Bourdain catches a guy throwing dead fish off the back of the boat so he can pretend to "catch" it "fresh" for Bourdain and Bourdain just gets depressed and the rest of the episode is him having an existential crisis, it's amazing

And yeah their job is to be excited but Fieri just does it in an extremely cliched, painful way that screams I AM A GIMMICK COME WATCH MY GIMMICK from a mile away.

The good chef shows have some depth and complexity to the gimmick. Like, Gordan Ramsey is usually SCREAMY SCOTCH MAN but like there's a one-in-four chance he'll actually be nice and helpful at any given moment, you never know

While I didn't care for guy fieri's two restaurants here, it's an area with a lot of really really good food, so admittedly it's probably pretty good if you put it in a different city, like I dunno, Lubbock or Colorado Springs or something.

I've never seen him up close, but I've had friends say they've seen his dumb car or seen him at Target or something.

so yeah we're basically besties
