Difficult Truths

[JimMIA]

I am a graduate of Univ. of Washington and have been a loyal Husky fan for over 40 years. I have been reduced to watching and actually rooting for the Washington State Cougars in the Sun Bowl. The horror.

And compounded by the fact that they're getting blown out by Central Michigan. They're down 21-0 at the half.

Most craft beer tastes nasty.

 

[Walt's Dream]

I know! More horror! Oh, for the days of Don James.

HAHAHA. Another Husky graduate and fan here. I get it. Thanks for the laugh this morning

Other than it being an honor playing in the Sun Bowl... the horror?

Yeah. Could be a LOT worse.

They coulda been NC State, playing UCLA in the Holiday Bowl...and your opponent just backs out at the last second!

I was just teasing. (Born in El Paso )

I do enjoy a cup of McD's or BK coffee now and then. Soooo much improved from what it was years ago, like brown dishwater.

Yassss!! I was going to post that one. McD’s has some decent coffee these days.

I love Peeps and Circus Peanuts.

Coffee is nasty and upsets my stomach. Even the fancy foo foo stuff is gross. The only thing good about coffee is the aroma (except lattes, they smell awful!).

Bud Light tastes like human waste.

I agree. If coffee tasted as good as it smells, I'd probably drink it.

I'm familiar with the taste of Bud Light, but..........

Difficult truth. It most certainly could. We might have had to watch Miami play.

Chuck E Cheese has great pizza, a fantastic salad bar, and decent beers.
I’ve been trained by popular snooty culture to look down my nose at the place but.. Chuck, I just can’t stop loving you!

What are your difficult truths?

Difficult truth. Even snooty popular culture is right once in awhile.

Difficult truth 1. Out west, we don't root for our rivals. It's unbecoming.
Difficult truth 2.
Oregon's trophy case.

Janky costumed mice and a ball pit are misunderstood by the connoisseurs of fine dining. I haven't been there since it was age-appropriate for me to be there, but I have fond memories of the pizza.

Wait they sell BEER there? And yet Waffle House gets the rep for being #1 spot for a fight to break out?

 

[Mysterian]

I think Tombstone frozen pizzas are yummy!

Yes! Tombstone is one of the best! And though cheaper than the "hoity toity" Digiorno, I would just as easily choose Tombstone on it's own merits.

Store brand coffee is just as good as the brand name ones. Case in point: my aunt will only drink Maxwell House. So I've been sneaking the much cheaper store brand into a Maxwell House container, and she has not noticed a difference. Diabolical, I know.

That's just like the old Folger's commercial!

Betty White couldn’t live forever.

 

[BlueStarryHat]

Don't tell my aunt, but I'm also passing off the store brand oatmeal for Quaker Oats.

In my working years, I had a client, small food manufacturing company, managed their 401(k) plan. They made marshmallows. The owner said they make 100% of all marshmallows made in the US, except Kraft. Same recipe, different bags.

There are marshmallow brands other than Kraft (JetPuffed)?

I wouldn't know. JetPuffed or nothing in this house.
