Dick cancer is better than almost all the existing ones.

Its only "basic needs". Paraplegics are still human. you dont habe your fingers anymore, but you've still got two extra arms, two extra legs, a spare lung and kidney, and a bunch of other stuff that you don't technically "need" as a human.

We use power-of-two denominators. 1/2, 1/4, 1/8, 1/16, 1/32. We don't use 1/3, 1/6, 1/9, 1/12, 1/5, 1/7.

We intrinsically know that 1/2 and 16/32 are equivalent; we would have to think about 3/6 or 6/12.

In taste tests, customers actually preferred A&W's burger to McDonald's,

If those taste tests are accurate, I'm guessing that individual stores could select their own suppliers, and didn't choose the suppliers used for the taste tests. Because every A&W burger I've had has been terrible. Completely inedible.

I would rather buy a quarter pounder from anywhere else than accept a free 1/3, 1/2, or 1lb A&W burger.

Americans rarely see 1/3. We typically only use binary fractions: halves, quarters, eighths, sixteenths. Occasionally, 32nds. Smaller than that, we use decimal.

This, exactly.

Anyone repeating this 1/4 vs 1/3 bullshit never had one of their 1/3lb burgers. They were fucking terrible. Sysco prison-grade burger patties, drowned in store-brand ketchup with a thin slice of "American"-flavored yellow #5.

Absolute worst burger I've ever had.

Growing up, A&W was for chili dogs and a big glass mug of rootbeer. Never order anything else; its always a fat sack of disappointment.

Trump will just do something outrageous and Biden's funeral will be about as memorable as his presidency.

I want to kill people with my phone. Make it 4 times heavier, and give it a hickory handle.

Unpopular, maybe, but I agree with OP. When I finally counted up all the caffeine I was consuming, I found I was over 1500mg/day.

I switched to caffeine-free drinks the next day, and tapered down to 200mg in the mornings.

Apparently, I shouldn't try to explain this to people IRL.

You remind me of that one kid in class who was intelligent enough to realize the teacher forgot to assign homework, but lacked the wisdom to shut the hell up and walk out the door.

Not sure you can defraud a criminal organization.

Savory autumn fetus?

Did he really just leave his IP wide open? Or did they somehow manage to get through his seven proxies to find him?

I know I'm being paranoid. What I don't know is if I'm being paranoid enough.

He hasn't antagonized the hoplophobes recently.

"Borrow" from your relatives, so they are creditors, and owed money from your estate.

(a) Then how did Tom Hanks get involved? "Starring actor" was included in the premise.

(b) If he knows he's the last black man on earth, sure. But that would suggest a predictable, but unavoidable tragedy, known months in advance to give enough time to actually produce the movie.

Kong.

I mean, if its a documentary on the last black man on earth, it couldn't actually be played by a black man.

Unless it was produced in space, or on another planet, I suppose.
