I think he looks like Bond villain Max Zorin from A View to a Kill.

I don’t think I could even be finished my leftovers by Christmas dinner.

Instead of celebrating Christopher Columbus, you should celebrate fellow Italian explorer Giovanni “John Cabot” Caboto being the first European explorer since the Vikings to land on mainland North America and, in fact, in Canada, where Thanksgiving is observed on its correct date.

I think there’s a sound that traces from John Lennon’s Some Time in New York City through people like Willy DeVille, Cherry Vanilla, David Johansen, etc. where it all sounds a bit like the SNL band and even the Rocky Horror Picture Show, and some of it is considered “punk” via its CBGB connection.

All I really want is a three-hour “this person is watching a sporting event/award show” timed mute.

He is Bad Badford and should feel bad.

The speed cameras are definitely working. It’s the speed camera *program* that isn’t working (because it makes the premier mad).

Yeah, it’s hard to retrofit roundabouts in particular. But I’d like to see some of this in places like Parkside Drive so they aren’t used as expressways through neighborhoods. (Maybe it has; I haven’t been over that way in years.)

It’s not wrong to say better road design is the solution, though. Speed bumps, raised crosswalks, roundabouts etc. can force drivers to do what signs can only tell them to do.

It’s got to hurt when you whiff on every ball and the ump calls “strike eight.”

Nice try, witches. Mine are staying buried in their jars where you can’t find them.

It’s less funny when you know he enjoyed the meal with a stolen credit card and that it wasn’t even succulent. Also, he was a Nazi.

This basically could be an episode of Beyond Yacht Rock. It’s the sort of name they’d pick for the genre and everything.

I think they originally have been fried in oil. I know that I noticed a decline in taste right around the time I noticed the packaging touting that they were baked.

Weird Al Swearengen @peterlynn.bsky.social · 11d

Is it because they’re baked now?
