The McRib is available in Mexico! There's a McDonald a few blocks away, but I haven't really craved any fast food yet. I'm going to have to make an exception to pick up a McRib though. What an unexpected gift.

I don't know how these things are decided, but the McRib is masculine, not feminine (as far as descriptors go), so that's correct.

Wait. People have to reserve pizzas out there?

But it wouldn't have been unusual for a feminine form to take a man's mcrib.

What's the difference between a woman and a McRib?

The woman was actually created from a rib?

Hit Blue Steel tonight. Got 2 classics for the wife and the girls and the sausage and ricotta all to myself. I ate all of mine and have no regrets, and some of theirs left over for tomorrow if I want to claim it.

My 'Train' (stupid Agile-speak) did such a great job during our recent PI (more stupid Agile-speak) that we've been given a DoorDash credit for $20 and are having a team virtual lunch today.

I've never done DoorDash (or UberEats or anything else like that) so I'm throwing it out there: What should I order? What travels ok? I could just heat up some leftovers (I made some RIGHTEOUS baked ziti a few nights ago) but that seems like its not in the team spirit.

I'm going to watch now, but Eventide (Portland, ME and Boston) does what they admit is a fancy filet-o-fish and its amazing. Had it twice in three days last time I was there.

(Christ, its 21:00 long? That's a real TV show.)

They're great, but if you're doing them indoors its a lot of grease and lingering smell, especially if you don't full vent up front.

I mean, I'm on an unaccompanied tour in Korea 4 months after returning from 7 months deployed.

And my wife bought me this mug. So, you're not wrong.

Could also go in the politics thread.



Remember the beforetimes when 'woke' wasn't a pejorative hijacked by political and media types? Someone would say 'stay woke'? It was moments like this that they meant.

There’s a Burger King about half a mile from my house and I would wager it’s the worst in the nation.
