Critics give out scores based on weird stuff. I remember the guy at the Guardian later admitting he gave the second Fantastic 4 movie four out of five because he was in a really good mood about the fortnight's holiday he was leaving on the next day.
abolish the movie grading system

I wonder if Wolverine will drop at all in his status as Marvel cash cow in the wake of the cinematic universe. Still can't believe he's a major player in the Avengers comics now. That's so ridiculous.
Wolverine has more movies under his belt than any other Marvel hero. If anything he's an even bigger cash cow now. He was bought into the Avengers on the fairly reasonable idea that the Avengers are supposed to be Earth's premier heroes but never felt like it because Tri-D Man was filling out the roster or Gilgamesh or Rage or someone that would just embarrass the X-Men if he showed up. So they just piled a bunch of really popular people in the team along with Iron Man and Cap and a couple of Bendis' favourites and hey presto it became their biggest selling book.
Which is why marvel are 'killing' him in the comics, because his death is a sales winner.
I just can't imagine the Claremont Wolverine being an Avenger. But I think being an Avenger is something completely different these days then when I tried to read it. There's like 3 or 4 Avengers teams now looks like. Does every character have to be on a team with the name "Avengers" or "X-Men" or both now?
And where's the goddamn Power Pack!?
power pack was introduced to try to appeal to a kid demographic. kids got powers and had adventures and kids reading the book could identify with them and their problems - getting bullied at school, dealing with dyslexia, not getting enough attention from mom and dad, etc.
but since kids don't read comic books anymore, marvel refocused to appeal to more of their central demo. more of the heroes are in their 30s and single and shy around the opposite gender and have food allergies.
you made me look forward to old age a lot, now
it will be hilarious when the super hero demo is 70

you guys, it's both national lasagna day and national chicken wing day
how could we let both of these things happen on the same day
I have never met a lasagne that I liked.
I make a pretty good lasagna. Has lots of whole milk ricotta. Will probably kill you
Ricotta is what keeps me away from most lasagnes.
I'm just not built for a lot of Italian food, it seems. I don't like ricotta, I don't like marinara, and I don't like tons of cream or cheese.
Atomika sits in a darkened room and carefully pours half a tablespoon of vinegar, lifts it to her lips and draws in the small amount of fluid. The nearly nutrient-free acid stings her tongue and burns slightly on the way down.
"Oh that's the stuff" she says, relaxing. "Just like mom used to make."

Atomika is a good example of a critic I disagree with a lot but isn't a horrible clickbait troglodyte
but I don't need to read her reviews really because I know if I liked it she hated it.
Chili's does a couple of things good. Their chicken tenders are amazing, and their skillet queso and chips are the bomb. Their corn on the cob is really good too.

I text deebaser pictures of horrible drink mix shit I find in stores about once a week. Last friday I sent him a picture of bacon flavored salt for glass rims.

Nicholas Lezard seemed to have a hate-on for the Tintin movie partly because of the insufficient number of beds in the film. The whole review is basically "I love Tintin and am going to show off how much I know about it, oh yeah there's a film out".

We have multiple meals a day for a reason Sloth.
Come on, it's like you're not even trying.
I am pretty tempted to get wings for lunch -- doubt I'll do lasagne for dinner then though.
Hooters has all you can eat chicken wings for 12.99. so.theres.that.I.guess.
I am real close to the original, which is actually really good.
From what I had seen on undercover boss or whatever, it wasn't the worst thing in the world(except when ti was being done incorrectly), and they are more up front about how waitresses are in bar climate, so that is going for them I guess.

Italian food is one of my least favorite types of food.
There are certain things I go for, admittedly. A nice veal piccata is tasty, as is garlic and herb angel hair, or mostacielli that isn't too greasy. And garlic knots? Shit yeah.
But yeah, I almost never want to go out for Italian food other than good pizza.

Speaking of that topic, I opened my refrigerator, and the shelf on the door decided to stop existing, so my balsamic vinaigrette fell on the floor and shattered. It was so sad.

but anyway yes the last of my money was €2 so I used it to buy the cheapest packet of biscuits the shop had (since I figure I can snack on them for the rest of the way) and they are actually way nicer than the more expensive ones
really buttery and just a bit sweet
would recommend

oh also chilis has really good ranch dressing. They make it in-house, Will.
IN HOUSE.
i worked at a dennys for a year
we made our ranch dressing in-house too!
here is the recipe:
2 gallons buttermilk
2 gallons mayonnaise
one big pouch of seasoning
put ingredients into a big home depot bucket. stir. serve.
one time i knocked the whole bucket over. 5 gallons of ranch dressing fucking everywhere. had to pull all the mats out of the kitchen and power-wash everything right out the door. the whole place smelled like sour ranch dressing for weeks.

Ebert gave way more positive reviews than most mainstream critics this side of USA Today. He loved movies and was always looking for something to enjoy in them.

I was in bed this morning at 10:30 and my dad burst into my room and shouted at me that i need to get to work
i told him that i don't have set hours and that 12-8 suits me far better than 9-5
he responded that he didn't care and that "this is a working house" and I got annoyed over the implication that i don't work
25 minutes later of shouting he told me that i was a worthless piece of shit and that he would be changing the locks so i couldn't go home
so yeah, at least his implications were out of caring rather than thinking you're a waste of space
i doubt that's much consolation, i just wanted to vent a bit

I used to make spinach dip. It involved a lot of mayo.
They do the opposite of everything I want. Mmm, potatoes roasted in lemon juice. Because nothing goes with lamb quite like the inside of a battery.
