I watched the first season of the Bear a while back. It was fine but certainly not at all funny. It was tough spending an extended time with these broken, angry, hurt people. I only recently brought myself to start the second season and can't say I'm enjoying the characters, plot, or experience.

That’s a new dinner party conversation: Who is someone that you hate so much that, if given the time, energy, and crew, you’d produce a 4-part documentary on them?

Total bullshit. The snowstorm was midweek, and the zoo at least is closed on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. And it's really craven to connect the Bourbon St attack to their losses. And if they want to play that game, what about the Super Bowl that supposedly injected all this money into the local economy?

The pursuit of Scrim was way more interesting than the current pursuit of that football coach.

I kind of get (but still dislike) the various team jerseys. But different colored helmets? Do people buy helmets?

Beignet Fest followed by Po-Boy Fest feels like NOLA satire, but it isn't. I remember the Levee or some humor site making a joke about the highly anticipated upcoming "Fest Fest."

Sorry, but that Parkway Thanksgiving poboy looks way too big and heavy. Glad it's for a good cause but I've never wanted to eat it.
