My dentist said cavities are way up because people drink LaCroix slowly rather than chugging a can in a few minutes like Coke. With the carbonic acid in it it means it's swishing around the teeth for longer and doesn't give the enamel time to regenerate.

So, :eng101: it you do drink sparkling water the advice I got was to drink it quick rather than holding onto it and taking brief sips

To this day, I haven't bought a single podcast product. Not missing anything.

I bought a Leesa mattress and I gotta say it's pretty great, but as the article mentioned it's not like I'm going to buy a mattress every month or even every like five years. Their "return it no questions asked and then we'll just donate the mattress" policy is great for the customer but is a miserable business plan

In fairness the literal best tasting thing I've ever had in my life was a double cheeseburger from Dairy Queen.

Granted, I was also The most stoned I've been in my life, but it stands. :colbert:

Turn them over to COMSUBPAC and COMSUBATL for target practice.

Time to make some new artificial reefs!

Man if they cut massive holes in the sides and made it so you could relatively safely explore some of the larger interior areas those would be BOSS HOGG for diving

My friend has a Peloton Bike and he has one of the few cases where it makes sense - he and his wife both use it, and have two kids. So they don't have time to go to the gym; and before they had kids they would go to spin classes and boot camp, and in the area they live in, a gym membership was $60 a person. A peloton bike monthly payment plus subscription is like $130, so it's essentially the same cost for them

There was a tik tok I saw, I don't remember where. EIther reddit or SA. It was like POV: the commercial you woke up to when you fell asleep on the couch. It was for that new age music collection, with like Enya playing. I think it was called Pure Moods? All we need is a full page ad for Columbia House cd's.

Lowell "The Hammer" Stanley's voice and "Beach Ford, Barton Ford, Lincoln Mercury.....first class!" are the exceedingly local commercial audio things that immediately flash me back to my childhood.

*Joel Bieber

I had no idea he wasn't local to me, but it looks as though he operates in 6 markets

e

markets

It was once Joynes and Bieber in like the early 90s. I think you can probably trace a bunch of partnership drama through that jingle because it was something like
Joynes and Bieber
Joel Bieber
Joynes - Macari or something
Joynes and Gaides

Edit: oh hell yes https://scholar.lib.vt.edu/VA-news/VA-Pilot/issues/1997/vp970610/06100221.htm

Edit 2: oh gently caress yes Bieber got Lowell THE HAMMER Stanley in this case this is the most VB thing ever

The only way it could be more Hampton Roads is if somehow Little Joe "I'd give them away but my wife won't let me" got involved.

In a wonderfully related “tell a story in ten words” one day the commercials were “…but my mom won’t let me”

The Sphere thing seems like a lot of nothing (?) to me because it is for the Quarter ending 9/30, and.... it opened on 9/29. So it makes sense that a massive long-term event space that is a technological wonder didn't make money when it wasn't able to do one of its main revenue generating functions :confused:
