hopefully none of it makes it to residential stuff. (or the bay lines the other way)

yeah, could be. hope not. that pic on ch 6 is horrific.

I wonder what the reason is - is it the tin itself? Or something like more like ... wild fish can have elevated levels of mercury in it

There's nothing there to be at, just the empty subway depot :p

Not sure who was smoking what when they built that eyesore.

H Mart (in/around Boston) is my fav place to hit. But a little out of the way.

oh yeah, the lays caramel ones? they were odd, and didn't really love them.

there's a new store next to gritty's in the old port and they have some asian snacks. I saw some lays 'sichuan hot pot' flavor, which I've liked.

How weird we talking here? Hitting up Asian markets for odd chip flavors is one of my hobbies.

I think they'll do it once and that'll be it. Either back to regular TV or just be done.

The Oscars are basically a giant advertisement for Hollywood. Putting an ad out of reach of a portion of the general public feels like a dumbass advertising move.

And now she's doing fuckin laps.

Climbs up the desk, knocking stuff over. Sits on my lap for about 5-10 minutes. Jumps down to the floor.

Climbs up again, knocks over other stuff...

Pick a spot, you little shit.

when I was a wee lad (early 20s), i was a booze nerd.

Up until the early 20th century, punch was the traditional way for large groups to get absolutely knackered.

Modern refrigeration goes back to the early 1900s, so before that, "safe at room temp" played a big role in drink recipes.

FWIW, I'm pretty sure that "nog" was just a type of cup, so it applies to a lot of drinks.

But a quick check on Wikipedia says that's debatable - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eggnog

"Milk punch" is the rabbit hole of variants to investigate. And god help you if you're lactose intolerant.

oh yeah, that's a good analogy.

like, all y'all need to calm down and let me browse in peace.

if you ever get into plex, it's got plexamp for songs. which isn't as fully baked as the movie/tv stuff - it's not bad, it's just cumbersome with a big library.

I don't subscribe to any services anymore. I bought a lifetime pass to plex and run a little server at home. Now I just collect & rip media to it.

Streaming is broken AF.

If they offered a don't-show option, it'd mean that they couldn't advertise those things at you, which means they wouldn't get paid for showing it to you.

and if netflix succeeds in buying WB, it'll be turbo fucked.

i get charged like $150 for them to check my blood pressure every few months and go "eh, it's ok now"
