Nekonaughey doesn't know what to do with the unused sauce. Much like me when it comes to the pickled ginger that comes with sushi... EDIT: Actually the green might be just one of those plastic grass decorations that separate different food portions

And Ed immediately squanders whatever small goodwill the audience had towards him as a result of getting poo poo on in the pole vault story.

Every time Ed and Mrs. Ed go to a restaurant they know he'll definitely hate. Why? You can go to a cheap white people food restaurant! There's thousands of them!

It actually rules and is one of my favorite food trends that about 80 percent of nice restaurants in my city do now. They aren't priced as a full entrees. So if you order a steak, you're not getting a 12oz cut and a side, but you're getting about 3oz or so of sliced steak and no side for about a quarter of the price, and then you order sides/salad/bread/cheese/dips/another protein to go with it. It's awesome because I love sharing and trying new food, and I don't like eating big American portions. It will definitely be more expensive than a casual pizza place, but they aren't charging full-sized nice-restaurant prices for each small plate. The server is also doing Ed a huge favor by giving him a heads up that the dishes are designed to be split. My mom literally cannot wrap her head around the concept when she visits. Even though she has requested to revisit restaurants where they do it. We'll sit down, and she'll immediately say, "I'll have the chicken," and put the menu down. Guess it's a boomer thing

Our Boarding House (May 21-23, 1923) Toonerville Folks (July 26-28, 1920; timg/spoiler combo for a bad case of the Usual Reasons.) If you can't tell, this one bugs the high hell out of me, to the point where I scanned ahead as a quality check. This specific stinker of a premise only shows up in my source's search results a handful of times, and we've already hit most of them (although even a wishy-washy estimate like that depends on OCR catching them all). That's not me signing a pledge that The Usual Issues largely vanish from Toonerville after 1921 (oh God no), just this particular two-act. Anyway... That's right, rowdyism. After last year's Potlatch debacle, they're not screwing around with hooliganism. In hindsight, this is the beginning of the end, since (spoiler alert) there was no 1915 Potlatch. Still, enjoy it while you can, I guess. Dok's "Poe But Honest" Duck (July 17, 1914) Little Lefty (November 22-24, 1937) Wonder if the there was a motive behind getting Patsy into pants for these last couple of appearances. Some newsworthy story that might've put this costume change into motion? Hmmmm...

I have my own dietary restrictions/preferences, if I order my own food I don't get in anybody's way and they can eat whatever they like.

If Ed has such restrictions/preferences, then presumably his own wife would know about them. And even if they'd gone to the pizza restaurant that Ed wanted, chances are they'd still have ordered a pizza to share, so they'd still have to consider each other's dietary preferences/needs. This is just Ed being grumpy. Don't get me wrong, I do get what you're saying, and it's a perfectly valid reason to be disinclined to go to a tapas-style place with a large group. But it doesn't really apply here.

I didn't get this at first because I thought, okay, there's a bunch of small stuff before the main course, sounds normal. And then I remembered that, in america, the entrée *is* the main course.
