I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

That would be impossible. DNA would somehow infer that Subway bread was based on natural ingredients, and not sludge they chipped off the elephants foot at Chernobyl.

Would you really be surprised if it wasn't tuna?

I think it must be some compound in their bread that I'm sensitive to or something, but all subway food has always smelled absolutely revolting to me. I've never even tasted it because of how bad it smells.

Yes. Also, KFC aren't secretly selling rabbit instead of chicken and McDonald's soft serve isn't made of pig fat.

Don't order fountain drinks at subway, those machines get real loving gross. Because of the baking, I think?

The sandwiches are acceptable. You can eat them. Don't ask for the forbidden v-cut unless you're "in the know."

From what I've read, something like 40% of food fish is mislabeled. Though that usually just means a different kind of tuna, not fugu or rabbit.

Isn't tuna endangered, or is that just in EU waters? Good on them for selling, I don't know, some other animal (?) instead.

They used to cut a v or u-shaped chunk out of the subway sandwiches instead of just cutting them in half like a normal person would.

This was the superior technique for meatball subs but inferior for cold cuts.

I'm really confused by the punctuation/wording of that sentence. I'm not a punctuation expert, but I think that brackets are used to insert words that the author has added to a quote ? If so, the original sentence is either just "on planet" (rather than "on the planet") or "on planet [something other than earth]" :crossarms:

Here to make your dreams and nightmares come true.


Mr. Musk, whose first name is the NFT blockchain for a tweet of a photo of his grandfather, sits in his bunker. The rotting former car batteries powering the last running computer on earth are almost spent, but their toil has finally concluded. The last bitcoin has just been mined, and through aggressive trading as the world collapsed about them, every last one of them found their home here in his care. He pours out a drink, motions a toast to the monitor displaying his dream realized, and takes a swig.

"Excellent, unvaccinated. And they said you couldn't tell the difference."

Ironic that a basic premise of science is often described with the example of "failure to find the Loch Ness monster (which doesn't prove nessy doesn't exist)".

Did Subway capture and release Nessy into sandwiches?! :ohdear:

Wow ok. That's a lot to take in.

It also includes some technical jargon

wikipedia posted:

Cracker (UK): a simultaneous knock-off and squop, i.e. a shot which knocks one wink off the top of another while simultaneously squopping it

Crud (UK): a forceful shot whose purpose is to destroy a pile completely

Good shot: named after John Good. The shot consists of playing a flat wink (one not involved in a pile) through a nearby pile with the intent of destroying the pile

Gromp: an attempt to jump a pile onto another wink (usually with the squidger held in a conventional rather than a Bristol fashion)

John Lennon memorial shot: a simultaneous boondock and squop

Scientists have taken environmental DNA samples from Loch Ness and no reptile DNA other than modern ones have been found (and most non-crocodylian non-lizard prehistoric aquatic reptiles diverged before even the dinosaurs existed so their DNA will look little like modern reptiles).
