  • Tbf, sometimes I'm right there with em, I'm not above drunk ordering some dominos, or on the rare occasion I go to a mall I may hit the Sbarro (but the fake Chinese food wins every time, let's be real), but it's literally the same thing just more fresh and made to better specs! It's not even "real tacos V taco bell," it's such a close approximation of the "real" thing but lacking soul, whereas taco bell is so far from real tacos that it'd be more understandable to prefer the fake version. Like even Olive Garden V real italian I get, because it's americanized enough, but Sbarro is not far enough removed from real pizza as to necessitate this phenomenon.

    I could understand getting Sbarro in Chicago, for those averse to deep dish, because it's a whole different style. I could understand some Chicago chain in NYC, for those who want deep dish. I could even understand Jets "detroit" style, because that's different too, but Sbarro in NYC is literally just "worse and more expensive version of the same thing you could have got in 20 different shops on your way here."

  • Ugh this is about to be my house. My big one looks like this too (but the tiny one is grey), and she's not happy we have a new resident, just keeps hissing every time they see each other through the doorway.

  • Smoketoomuch: Yes, I'm sorry, I can't say the letter 'B'.

    Me, misunderstanding: Ah word I gotchu cuz, what's crackin' 6?

    This is the second gang reference I've made in this sub in as many days lol, which isn't a lot but it's weird it happened twice.

  • Never talked to any gang members huh?

    Well, the joke is that Bloods can't say things beginning with the letter C, like "Cat," and the above comment repeatedly used "brat" to replace "cat" as would be done by a Blood. For instance, they don't say "cracking," they'll replace the C, making it "bracking." Crips will do the reverse, saying C where there once was a B. Yes it's ridiculous, but that's what they do, and the joke requires knowledge of this to understand. They also have numbers ascribed to their gangs, 5 is bloods, 6 is crips, so "what's brackin' 5" would be something said by some Damu out there to another (a Damu being a member of the bloods, damu means blood in Swahili iirc, and tbf he'd actually say "what's poppin 5" instead but brackin' was necessary for the joke.)

    Yes it is silly. Now enjoy my favorite old Blood music video from the 47 Miller Gang, If U Blood Throw It Up

  • It looks like I'm using an adblocker you say? Well, I have to agree there!

    Short of being able to actually read the article, "free my mans he didn't do nothing." So what he had weed and guns including destructive devices according to the ATF, did he hurt anyone or was he just mega fucking cool? If nobody was harmed and he didn't have a manifesto, the worst crimes he's guilty of are "possessing metal we say no to" and "smoking herbs we say no to," I.E "not shit."

    Now, if he did hurt someone or threaten his wife or some shit, then yeah, lock him up and give me his guns and weed for safe keeping.

  • https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/basin

    A) an open usually circular vessel with sloping or curving sides used typically for holding water for washing

    B) chiefly British : a bowl used especially in cooking

    C) the quantity contained in a basin spilled a basin of water on the floor

    Not only is that not a measurement the US uses, the only geographical location mentioned in the definition is "chiefly British."

    So, uh, "no."

  • Well, since there is an apostrophe we can assume that it's either a contraction or possessive. Being that I'm unaware of the contraction I'm leaning towards possessive, so that means whatever UFOs are belongs to someone or some group named "B." To my knowledge, the organizations that widely go by B are The Boston Bruins hockey team, and The Bloods, a street/prison gang originating in Los Angeles California. Idk what a hockey team will realistically do with UFO tech in a game where flying isn't involved, so my best guess as to the meaning is that the Bloods have really leveled up and the Crips should be worried.
