This is not the kind of corn smut I cum here for!

National Stupid Football League, or NSFL for short!

I bought a lifetime pass for 100 bucks about 10 years ago, and have had 10 years of not having to give a shit about these announcements. I’ve saved well over 100 bucks on streaming services in that time. Worth it 1000%.

Oh yeah for sure.

At least some part of this is related to aging. Our sense of taste seems to diminish as we age, but also we get exposed to more and more complex flavor profiles as we go through life. Canned soups dont even taste salty to me anymore, they just taste bland.

Halitosis was already the medical term for bad breath, with evidence of its use in England. All that word did was give an American businessman/marketer a polite euphemism to talk about something that was considered taboo at the time (body odors were associated with poor hygiene and lower status people). It does seem like they pushed hard with marketing to make it into a more widespread “problem” though.

My sister used to only eat a steak if it was charred black and covered in ground black pepper. Not sure if that’s “better” or worse than burnt bacon.

I was born in the late 80s, grew up in the 90s and 2000s, and it’s both fascinating and terrifying to me how much of what I thought was just “standard” stuff was influenced by marketing 50-100 years before I was even born. Santa Clause as a jolly old man with rosy cheeks and a snow white beard wasn’t a big thing until Coca-Cola made it part of their advertising in the 30s. The bacon with breakfast thing was the result of a food packaging company in the 1920s hiring a man named Edward Bernays to help them sell more bacon. Bernays was allegedly so good at marketing/manipulation that people like Hitler and Goebbels kept copies of his books. Orange juice became a thing because orange producers in Florida in the early 1900s made too many oranges for the market (in an attempt to beat out California as the country’s orange production state), and juicing them was considered a better alternative to reducing production.

Have you seen Archer? It’s an animated comedy but it hits some of the same vibes, at least for the first 3-4 seasons. Things get… weird after that.

Same here. There’s just something about the gang that helps me see the good. They’re objectively terrible people but at the end of the day they always stick together.

I’m doing a Dexter rewatch over the holidays. Apparently there are a bunch of sequels/prequels now and I wanna refresh my memory before diving into those shows.;

Sorry, I need leatherbound pounds to go with my wallet. Next!

Voyager has that “found family” vibe that most of the shows don’t really.

Burn Notice. I dont know what it is but it’s like watching a version of “How It’s Made” from a fictional universe. All of the voiceovers about spycraft are bullshit but my brain just buys it for whatever reason.

Also, can’t belive I forgot this, but “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia”.

Yeah, i’ve heard them called “breakfast bars”. The condo I rented years ago had one of these cutouts.

that’s like 300 dollars worth of vanilla these days D=

She did some “erotic modeling” after the show that’s out there on the interwebs, if you’re interested.

I got my magnum condoms. I got my wad of hundreds. I’m ready to plow!

Those are cannabis plants, not tomatoes. Although botanically speaking cannabis and tomatoes are basically cousins, and have very similar growth requirements. So if you “accidentally” planted cannabis and fed it thinking you planted tomatoes then it would do quite well.
