I am in literally the middle of nowhere Kansas. There is an Arby's in the hotel parking lot. A fuckin beef and cheddar is like $5.25. Used to be like 5 for $5. What in the fuck.

Closest drivethru to the field where I had soccer practice was an Arby's. My parents were only too happy to oblige.

Man it makes you wonder now. I survived on dollar menu shit, but there ain't no dollar menu anymore. Hell ramen is pricey now. Don't even know how the young kids live.

Ordering boxes of Shin Ramyun or Mi Goreng online is usually a good deal.

Last time I ate at Arby's I got a burger everybody was raving about. It would've been good if it didn't have some weird sweet sauce on it. That was years ago.

I balk at "special sauce" or "house sauce".
If I take a chance and you let me down I will come up to the front and say,
"This all could have been avoided, but no, you had to play games."

I remember when I first learned what "fancy sauce" is.
It mostly made me feel sad.

Costco had Shin red and black on clearance and I stocked up. I like black because I prefer to spice it up myself, but I got some red too.

Listen. Best bang for your buck nowadays is Chilis. Its cheaper than McDonalds, better, and you can get beers there.

Yeah I actually make my own broth for Shin Ramyun. Bonito, konbu, dried shrimp, anchovy, shoyu, sesame oil, whatever else I'm feeling that day.

Here goes something.
On the plane in first class. 80+ old man with big white teeth and his 30 something wife who has a thick foreign accent, and cute little doggy.
Think mail order bride.
He chats up a convo with someone across from him.
They start talking about properties they own in different states, main one being Florida.
Right before we land he drops his name to the dude he's talking to.
I just looked him up.
FILTH E RICH

not too bad, but you can tell these dingbats will be the ones to stretch it out until near march

I sat next to T Pain on a flight. Was the nicest guy. I also sat next to Pusha T on a flight to Norfolk. And everyone on that flight bumped his fist on entry. I had no idea what was going on. He saw my google search and said " yeah thats me".

3 different dingbats very near me have switched to year round color changing lights so they don’t have to mess with them other than switching the whatever primary holiday colors of the month

it’s clever, i guess, but still lazy imo

then it makes my street look like it was decorated by a hot topic manager

He was in some sort of huge beef with Drake at the time. I only knew it through a podcast I can't remember. He owned him. So I told him that i heard that, and he said OK.

Aint nobody care what a 40 year old white man days lol.

Where I grew up in Philly, you did not take your decorations down before January 6th.

If I walked by a house with like red white and blue lights I would cross myself because that is a place of sickness.

Taking down your lights is so foreign to me lol.

You put your lights up in October. You just don't turn them on until December. You cant do this in Drcember in MSP lol.

I have a 16' string of lights across the front porch I keep up year round. Most of the year they're clear LEDs, but I change them out with colored incandescents for Halloween and Christmas. And it's a manual change, so it's not lazy. Except it kinda is because there aren't many lights.
I put the clear bulbs in last night. Sue me; I've been busy gooning.

We just do LED lights on our plants and the proscenium. We could put colored lights up in the street-facing bay window but no one out there gives a shit, so whatever.
From: sanka #1997

Whatever vity they go to they put out a leger that says Busch Light here. And the fans literally drink all of it and move on. Its a known thing.
