  I can’t stand Bar Rescue, Taffer really does have the most punchable face, it’s like on par with Penn from Penn and Teller.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨am I cooked chat⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  That was a wild episode. Did you know after that first episode business was booming for a while? People went out of their way to try to see their rudeness. But I guess the food overall didn’t make it worth it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨am I cooked chat⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  It happens, my guilty pleasure is Kitchen Nightmares and related shows. Gordon and or his camera crew have been assaulted twice from memory. They get broken up crazy fast though. I wouldn’t be surprised if there are more that don’t make it to camera. They are trying to tell a different story in each episode, so I am sure a brawl kind of derails that story telling.

  Its just infuriating, if I were worse at math or hadn’t been in the industry before I would have come up with an answer that was not even close to correct.

  Also does boolean logic not work on searches anymore?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨soda⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  But 5 to 1 part isn’t 1/5 it’s 1/6 isn’t it? I dont drink a lot of soda, but used to be on the sales side in a prior life. So I am going off what the internet says on mixing. I assume because some syrup brands/packs have significantly different caloric counts that the ratio isn’t the same brand to brand or store to store.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨soda⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  A 5 gallon bag o syrup costs around 50 - $100 depending on volume discounts and what part of the US. At a 5 to 1 ratio, that’s 30 gallons per bag. Assuming each cup is 12oz (they do put in a lot of ice usually) that’s 320 servings (assuming no spillage).

  So it costs McDonalds or similar 15 - 30 cents per soda they sell in soda costs, and 7 cents for the cup. So assuming it’s still a dollar, that’s between 78 to 63% profit based on volume discount the specific place has with coca cola. So not really 100% profit, but still high. And no the cup doesn’t cost more, if that were ever true it was for a brief moment in history.

  My dad was blown away when he had to go do work at auto plants overseas and the breakroom vending machines had beer in them. I guess there was a 2 beer unofficial limit. This was like 3 decades ago… So maybe it’s changed.

  Duh? Otherwise the Salmon would already know why.

  What if they were just doing it to make fun?

  I remember being in gym class, secondary school a few decades ago and these two sexually prolific girls for lack of a better term, moderately popular, who would spend gym classes flirting and basically sexually molesting? (Idk what term to use when clothes are on) this nerdy kid most days in gym. Teacher only seemed to laugh when he noticed.

  They would feel him up and tell him his balls were small or penis was crooked. It was fucked up.

  Just make a law part of the funding bill, it’s relatived afterall.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Could a minority in US Senate essentially disolve the federal state?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  They could just get rid of the filibuster.

  It means a lot to the company that owns the Tylenol brand. People would be fools not to try suing.

  I wish he would just legalize that, it would probably be the least unhealthy of his policy changes lol.

  This is actually a hilariously amazing idea. Put all the young progressive upper commers on the roster and the old gaurd will probably assume they will crash and burn, when in reality these shit talking heads never are challenged.

  This would actually hit pretty hard as an art exhibit.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨‘I’m a modern-day luddite’: Meet the students who don’t use laptops⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Me too, but that’s because my parents bought me a laptop with like a 19 inch screen thinking it would be helpful. That fucker was heavy.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨‘I’m a modern-day luddite’: Meet the students who don’t use laptops⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  First year… In college? No, that’s pre-requisite knowledge that they expect students to have from secondary school.

  I am having vague nightmares of the Momte Carlo and Black Scholes sheets we would have to compile for financial engineering classes in college…

  Which one is the Excel replacement and how does it compare? We all know companies buy office mostly just for excel…

  If anyone was curious the reason for “cheese” is to turn black tar heroin into a snortable powder. It’s not really well known because people who buy tar smoke it or inject it and if you wanted to snort heroin you would just buy powder form, but powder used to be hard to find on the west coast until fentanyl became big.

  I think that people have tried, but the grifting is too easy and lucrative and that makes them a Republican.
