Three bucks for a hash brown? You know Simplot sells packs of ten for four dollars, right? And you can cook them on a stovetop with a tablespoon of vegetable oil, right? Hell, if you're desperate, you could even throw a pair into the toaster, although they won't taste nearly as good that way.

Maybe just stick with the lettuce, Mr. Galapagos Tortoise.

This seems to happen with progressive rock at alarming levels. They just reach a point where they take their pretentious bullshit a little too far, and the fans grow weary of it. You saw that with Jethro Tull, which pushed its luck with A Passion Play after scoring a critical success with Thick as a Brick. Yes took it too far with Topographic Oceans. I'm sure ELP has an album where they pushed the envelope a little too far and pushed away the audience in the process. Unfortunately, that had a pendulum effect, with ELP releasing the wimpy Love Beach in an attempt to reel back in those lapsed fans.

This is MAGA, ladies and gentlemen. If they're not actively doing stuff like this, they're at least thinking about it, and they sure don't have a problem with it.

Zuckerberg responded by saying, "Oh my God! I've violated Asimov's first rule! What have I DOOOOONE?!" and exploding on the spot.

He hasn't read this many disturbing responses since he was introduced to Sesame Street in the first place.

Life sucks, no doubt, but you're here and you have to get used to it. The best advice I can provide is slurp up all the good moments you can and savor the taste, so their memories will get you through the hard spots. Repeat until dead.

"If you don't have these little 'advertisements' cleaned up by the time we get back, I'LL come to Quark's... and believe me, I'll have FUN."

Man, now you just trollin'.

I get a laugh out of Sisko doing a silly child's dance in Lethal Candyland, in that episode of DS9 when they make first contact with a bunch of gambling aliens. "Allamarane! Count to four! Allamarane! Then three more!" It's those little moments in Star Trek where respected actors humiliate themselves for the sake of the plot that are just so great to watch. See also Armin Shimerman as the silvery announcement box in one of the early TNG episodes.

Self-hate is one hell of a drug.

I'm wary of using vending machines lately. You can use a debit card on the soda machines, but they'll charge you much more than the cost of the soda, and not refund you the difference for several days. I think that sucks.

If right-wing douchebags like these were actually replaced, what would we have lost? Nothing of value, certainly.
