PittTheElder posted:That underlying song is called Turkey in the Straw, dates from the 1820s or so, and probably has an ancestor older than that. And like anything produced in 1820s America, it was indeed racist as gently caress. Turkey in the Straw is not racist and has nothing to do with the lovely watermelon version. The version in that Youtube video came a hundred years after Turkey in the Straw, and Turkey in the Straw descends from an even older Irish folk song which also had nothing to do with the nasty racist lyrics attached to it by Harry Browne.

Jesus, I don't find this funny at all. If it's sincere, and I'm not just missing the joke, it looks like someone who suffered a catastrophic life-changing event reaching out to connect with another person who might understand. I guess he was too busy getting limbs blown off to play Skyrim. This isn't Something Sensitive, etc...

AlbieQuirky posted:I love that absolutely nobody recognized Andrew Dice Clay in that picture. gently caress that untalented hack. We were working on a reality show about his life a couple of years back. Clay's life is hilarious. He is (was) living with his ex-wife, his new wife, his mother-in-law, his son, and maybe some other people. He was scrambling to work every gig he could because he couldn't stop playing blackjack, and he was thoroughly convinced that he was still a monster star. The man lives in a bubble of outrageous delusion. That's as of two or three years ago. I don't know if he got his poo poo together in the interim.

veedubfreak posted:Denver? Hell, even the Wal-Mart in the podunk shithole of Huntsville, TX that I lived in before escaping TX was open 24/7. I just thought that's what they did. It depends on the Wal-Mart (they aren't all super centers), and also on local culture. In Miami, the closest 24-hour Wal-Mart was over 20 minutes away from my home. Here in Vegas, I don't think it's possible to be more than ten minutes from a 24-hour Wal-Mart. Edit: vv It isn't so much that everything is open 24 hours per day, here. It's more that there's at least one place open all night for almost anything you want to do. 24-hour grocery shopping? Smiths or Wal-Mart. 24-hour pharmacy? Walgreens. 24-hour bingo? Arizona Charlie's. 24-hour sit-down restaurants? All over the place. 24-hour movie theater? You're hosed. Centripetal Horse has a new favorite as of 01:07 on Jul 17, 2014 |

Kvantum posted:As awful as these were, the Xmas pack one year with Ham beat out this one, by far. Jones Ham Soda was the most vile thing ever carbonated and sealed in a bottle. One of the rest areas I stop at regularly on coast-to-coast trips has one of those restaurants that's like 40% gift store. It isn't a chain, just a mom-and-pop freeway trap in some tiny town. One of the things they have for sale is bacon soda. I bought one for my little brother, and it was heinous. Not that it didn't taste like bacon - it did - but because bacon should not be carbonated. Or liquid. Or quite that salty. Edit:  I don't remember if this was the brand, but I don't think it was Jones. Centripetal Horse has a new favorite as of 06:35 on Aug 15, 2014 |

Memento posted:Yeah from what I've seen it's the USA that's weird in not having pineapple on their pizza. I thought this was already settled. It's been twenty years or more since I saw a pizza place that didn't offer pineapple here in the states. I've lived in Florida, Ohio, California, and Nevada in that time. I order pineapple on pizza all the time. Well, "all the time" on the rare occasions I order pizza. Edit: I guess it's possible that some mom-and-pop shops might not offer pineapple, but they would definitely be the exception.

Rexicon1 posted:Florida is one of the most ethnically, culturally and ecologically diverse states in the nation and on top of it, it is beautiful as hell. GelatinSkeleton posted:Yeah I am trying to figure out where in Florida most of these people went. DIsney World I guess? I went there once but I was a little kid so I loved it. Everywhere else in Florida I've been is gorgeous, and owns. I was born and raised in south Florida. The photos Rexicon1 posted are a lot closer to my experience growing up there than all the "lol Florida" junk people post. Yeah, stupid poo poo happens there. It's the fourth most populous state in the nation, it's bound to generate some nonsense. Florida also exists in a bit of a cultural limbo. If you say it's the south, people who have never been outside of Miami or Orlando tell you Florida is not the south. Those people have obviously not spent time in Okeechobee, or White City, or Ft. Pierce, or (until recent years) Port St. Lucie. I still remember moving away from Florida for the first time, and realizing that grits, pickled pigs' feet, and 10-pound buckets of chitterlings were not necessarily available everywhere. Other people think Florida is a retirement state with nothing to offer if you're not on the edge of death. Or, all of Florida is made up of Cuban criminals and Haitian voodoo priests, because Dexter says so, and some people don't understand that Florida is not Miami. I like Florida. There were many lovely things about my childhood, but living in Florida was not one of them. I grew up literally swimming with manatees, fishing from my back yard, and snorkeling over exotic location that most people only ever see on television. I am glad to see Florida dismissed as a lovely place to live, because the less people there, the better. That concludes my defense of the state that murdered Trayvon Martin.

Tiggum posted:How do you drink an entire litre of Coke in one sitting? And with a meal, as well. My Lovely Horse posted:That's not really... how long of drives do you take that you need a litre of coke to keep your spirits up? Like I'm gonna take a three hour car trip next week and my driver drat sure isn't taking a litre of coke along. Is it just the hope that holding in a piss will at least keep you from falling asleep? I don't know about the rest of you, but I cram the cup with ice when I pour a drink. A couple of weeks ago, I got curious, and measured how much liquid was in a cup I was drinking from. The result was that the actual liquid was less than half of the cup's contents. A liter on a long car ride seems normal to me, and less than half that after ice seems super reasonable. According the Mayo Clinic website, the average total beverage intake for a man should be about three liters per day. If you're rolling 960ml deep with McDonalds, and even 1/3rd of that is ice, you're only 20% of the way to your daily drinking quota. Clearly, you shouldn't be getting all your water in the form of cola, but all this "Oh, my GOD, an entire LITER," seems pretty ridiculous. Just don't drink sugary syrup water day in and day out. Edit: 30 minutes definitely does not qualify as "long" in my little scenario, but it isn't like the soda ceases to be drinkable when you reach your destination. You don't have to shotgun it all in the car.

But the suggested sources go beyond glasses of clear water. All beverages, including water, as well as moisture in foods like fruit, vegetables, lean meat and soups count. The National Institute of Medicine says 2.7 liters for women, if you include moisture in food. The Mayo Clinic article gives a figure of 2.2 liters for women, demonstrating that their number is sans food-water. This calculator gave me 2.8 liters after accounting for water in food: http://nutrition.about.com/library/blwatercalculator.htm  Edit: Lol, this guy has both the right idea, and the wrongest idea:
