Brussell sprouts tho? It all should be fired into the sun.

Just eat the peanut butter. I prefer my peanut butter without monofilament in it.

My wife craved buffalo wings. It was the greatest period of my life.

I just had spiciest wings of my life in Tallinn (Estonia). Other tables were watching if I'd survive and I believe I got on some local leaderboard of qty of those things consumed per hour. Pregnancy is fun.

I have a friend who is an Assistant Principal at an Elementary School in NYC. Today she confiscated, from a 2nd grader, a giant stalk of celery wrapped with about in about 10 sq feet of saran-wrap. He was using it to beat people, which might be the only way I can think of for celery to be useful.

She also had a 5th grader graffiti the girls bathroom with a pink marker. The student was denying her role in the incident despite her hands and arms being covered in the pink marker. I always tell people the best way to survive in a school is to get the kids to do work for you, so I told her she should give the 2nd grader back the celery weapon and have him interrogate the graffiti suspect to get a confession. Sometimes you just have to take what the world gives you.

My highschool once had a maximum lockdown on April 20th because someone had written "Armaghetto 4/20" on a bathroom wall. One student had elected to take a duffel bag filled with all his pornography to school that day, which was funny.

Couple years later a friend admitted he had done it, because he was very high and thought it was funny. He didn't come forward because he didn't want to get in trouble for writing on the wall.

This is for you.

Bruce Dickinson is quoted in a farewell to the 747 article. Not exactly what I expected when looking into financial news today. I am humored.

https://www.nasdaq.com/articles/boeings-747-the-original-jumbo-jet-prepares-for-final-send-off-0

SEATTLE/PARIS, Jan 29 (Reuters) - Boeing's BA.N 747, the original and arguably most aesthetic "Jumbo Jet", revolutionized air travel only to see its more than five-decade reign as "Queen of the Skies" ended by more efficient twinjet planes.

The last commercial Boeing jumbo will be delivered to Atlas Air AAWW.O in the surviving freighter version on Tuesday, 53 years after the 747's instantly recognizable humped silhouette grabbed global attention as a Pan Am passenger jet.

"On the ground it's stately, it's imposing," said Bruce Dickinson, the lead singer of Iron Maiden who piloted a specially liveried 747 nicknamed "Ed Force One" during the British heavy metal band's tour in 2016.

"And in the air it's surprisingly agile. For this massive airplane, you can really chuck it around if you have to."

Deep fried sprouts > potato chips. The oven suggestions here, often including bacon, are great as well. But make some crispy sprouts and tell me that's not good
