    I will say it's not very nice here. But Blake's Aka Lottaburger is a great place for a green chili burger {you have to ask for it to be placed on} Little Anita's is a local fast food Mexican place that is good.
    Other than that I don't know what they will be doing so I can help with what I can

    hmm I would probably put that in the other category

    Perhaps there should've been a "musical from the 70s or later" category

    It's almost 40 years old, it can qualify as a classic.

    Also fulfills the “SO many white people” rule of thumb.

    Is that McNulty on the left? Whoever cast him as Max Payne when he was the right age for it was absolutely on the money.
    yep, as Valjean

    Like, when we went out to get some Pho a couple months ago, I sang this to the tune of Daft Punk’s “Get Lucky”:
    :whistle:
    “We’re gonna go get some pho
    We’re gonna go get some pho
    We’re up all night for some pho
    We’re gonna park at the Lucky’s”
    :whistle:

    All of it was factually true!

    Jeremy Renner is in none of these

    He performed "We Didn't Start the Fire" on Jimmy Fallon with other Avengers: Endgame cast members in a sequence with the MCU logo and trademarks

    Therefore

    Avengers: Endgame is classified as a Stealth Musical

    Oh then I pick stealth musical

    I do think Wicked could make an incredible movie if it were done right. Though I may be biased because damn I love that musical.

    I would use the term "coward's musical" for Chicago-type musicals where the singing and dancing is all in the character's head

    I mean I'm fine with that style but I hate each and every person who talked about Chicago like it 'solved' the 'problem' of musical numbers not making literal sense

    Speaking of musicals, I'm real mad that my google news feed keeps showing me articles about recent movie releases titled "the twist ending of X movie, explained!" or "we explain the ending spoiler of X new movie!"

    Complete with a visual spoiler and also a text spoiler preview of the article

    This is aggression

    Yeah when news outlets treat "spoiler" like it's a real thing

    That's worse than taking Pizzagate seriously

    you know the feeling when you digested some hot sauce that's been left out and you can't remember if hot sauce is hostile enough to not grow bacteria but the cap popped a bit when you untwisted it and later on you feel kind of bloated and tense and you're not sure if you just need to fart cuz you ate a lot or there was bacteria in the hot sauce and they're currently having a party in your stomach

    I have a less common plane story. I was visiting my sister in Rome and we were flying to Paris for a few days, and we got there with plenty of time but my sister was confused or something about what we were supposed to do so we went through security without actually checking in because we didn't have luggage. Boarding starts and they're like uh, no, we're not letting you on the plane with this email you printed. I instantly resign myself to missing the flight, but she is stronger willed and just straight up walks to the front of the check-in and security lines with me and they just let her be a rude American with this sob story that is 100% our fault. BUT the second time we go through security it turns out that in my backpack is SEVERAL BULLETS. My dad had used it for the range at some point and I checked but clearly not close enough, but this had gone unnoticed at Reagan and at this airport 30 minutes ago.

    Anyway we made the flight because the universe is fundamentally unjust I guess.

    Happiness is within reach!

    I'm doing an MTGA draft for the first time in, like, 4 months.

    Built a deck with a whopping 1 rare in total.

    but it's getting it done.

    it's not pretty, it's not fancy, but it's a good workhorse, it seems.
