    The Food Thread (Non Instagram Edition)

    I may or may not have toyed with the idea as a kid of becoming a mall cop when I grew up . . . not an idea I toyed with for long, mind you.

    The Food Thread (Non Instagram Edition)

    My sister worked at Burger King when she was a teenager as well, and yes, apparently back then, working in fast food (especially at Burger King) was considered very cool . . . unlike today, where if you're working in fast food, regardless of your age, it pretty much means your life is in the...

    Learn Something New Everyday Thread

    Well played. Then obviously, you didn't drink enough! You really need a lesson or two from the master of binge-drinking to the point he will sleep the entire weekend in jail and leave first thing Monday morning: Otis Campbell.

    So apparently Swifties actually have one thing in common with Trumpsters: they both think their idol is being unfairly targeted by biased media whose sole purpose is lie about them every chance they get.

    COVID-19 Coronavirus News and Updates

    Somebody else I personally know has tested positive for COVID now as well. And, not surprisingly, this guy is a grubby, redneck Trump supporter (despite originally being from New York).

    None Like it Hot: The "I Hate the Heat" Club

    Well, here we are again: above average with spring-like conditions, and raining buckets to boot (and it's only for one day). So far, 2021 is already off to a poor start.

    The Food Thread (Non Instagram Edition)

    Okay, so we've discussed our preference for pizza toppings and hot dog toppings, but we only kind of skimmed on our preference for burger toppings. . . . So, what are yours? For me, it kind of depends on whose burger it is, but generally speaking, my one consistent burger topping is pickles: no...

    Cracker Barrel has always had what they call their "sampler," which is basically a platter with a little bit of some of their common menu items like ham, meatloaf, and chicken and dumplins (plus sides, of course) - it's always been a great go-to dish if you can't make up your mind of what you...

    Conversely, 2008 may have been one of the best years of my life, if not the best.

    Out With the Old, In With the New! The New Year's Thread

    Let's be honest with ourselves for a moment . . . yes, collectively, 2020 was a terrible year for pretty much the entire world . . . not to sound privileged or anything, but we've all had years from the past that were a lot worse for us personally than 2020 has been. For me, 2004, 2006, and 2010...

    Little things we've noticed

    Perhaps certain fabric or materials were hard to come by, or that original puppet just held up really well all those years. Oscar on the other hand, Caroll has said they just continually patched him up and repaired him over the years, rather than build new ones (until recently, that is), but in...

    Little things we've noticed

    It's recently occured to me that many of the puppets used for the Muppets during the early and mid-90s are some of my least favorite builds of these characters. Something about Big Bird's heard with the extra white feathers around his eyes, and the flatness of the front of his face just doesn't...

    Sesame Street Season 51 Episode 5108 - Return of the Fairytale Helpers

    You're one of the ones who's always quick to point out SS follows almost no sort of canon or continuity whatsoever - especially in recent years. But yeah, this is getting kind of tiring.

    Worst/creepiest puppets/puppeteer work

    Interestingly enough, I've noticed in watching some of the closing credits from this show that there were but a few people who worked on that show who ended up working for the Kroffts later on.

    I mean, yeah, I know you get really salty at times, but I really saw (and heard) an extremely tempermental side to you this year, and yeah, I was getting really concerned that maybe you were slipping into some serious anger management issues or something, because it's like when you lost your...

    So, let me take a look back at 2020, and see what's been going on. . . . Pros: We had the most normal September we've had in practically a decade! No prolonged summer heat, no above average conditions, just an absolutely normal September, my favorite month of the year - it was probably the...
