Wendyโs has the absolute worst French fries
ExiledInIllinois replied to Brennan Huff's topic in Off the Wall
Okay that's... Cray cray... But food at a game always is. Why they would love to get rid of tailgating and get their meat hooks in on the parking and food $$... Why should the local supermarkets make the $$? Hard in a town like BFLo where being a "Sweater Wearer & Cooler Dragger" is a birthright. Remember bringing food into an amusement park... No Bueno in the modern era... You wanna eat out of a cooler? Take it to the picnic table next to the dumpsters in the parking lot... No way you're dragging that through the park like the old days. Can't say I blame them, the park would be a mess. It ain't like the old days. Just check out the stadium lots in OrchardPark on Monday after a game, you can probably feed a 3rd World country today. /SorryIDigressFromTheOriginalTopic ๐ Go Wendy's fries! -

Awesome! About right: https://www.usinflationcalculator.com/ That's $1.95 in 1955 and about 8 bucks in 1985... -
AFL footballer Jordan DeGoey in trouble in NY
ExiledInIllinois replied to Shamrock's topic in Off the Wall
I guess the groping is worse than this: "De Goey and his friend, fellow Aussie Luke Dyson, a 28-year-old tattoo artist, also allegedly beat and kicked the womanโs 37-year-old male pal and hit him in the head with a bottle when he tried to stop them." https://nypost.com/2021/10/31/new-details-in-australian-football-league-star-jordan-de-goeys-arrest/ Forcible touching gets all the headlines, but beat over head with a bottle... The back story. -
No. I think a lot missed the memo: I don't pick the colors. I guess a lock is a movable bridge though. LoL... I know I got an emergency switch to shut ***** down. I can even reverse the operation in a pinch. Anyway maybe something big was coming and would crash into bridge. In that case, ***** the car! ๐

Sounds awesome! Melted pepper jack? -
Rent and utilities on par, but wage stagnation is the real problem.

Inflation! Which always gets me... Why is pizza so damn expensive!!! A $20 pie today was worth $7 in 1982.
-
Yeah! But really... The profit margins on pizza subs have to be awesome. Roll, dab of sauce, little cheese and few slices of pepperoni. BAM! 6 BUCKS today!
-
https://www.usinflationcalculator.com/ $2.00 in 1976 is: $9.64 in 2021 A whole pizza sub is $5.95 today [$1.23 in 1976] @ Roz's. 1/2 pizza will set you back: $3.95 [$0.82 in 1976] Signed, KillJoyInIllinois

ExiledInIllinois replied to Irv's topic in Off the Wall
Bleu cheese & Sriracha. Just squeeze in to taste and you're golden! I shouldn't have said anything... Now watch it hit mainstream and I lose out on a million dollars! Substitute BBQ sauce too. Open Pit. Don't get too cute with fancy BBQ sauce. LoL... I am a "gravy guy!" ๐ -
Laziness. And that should be civilly settled because nobody, including the deceased is not without blame. Oh... Just for the sake of old times, water and oil argument. You and me.๐ We have a โ ๏ธ warning, low fuel light... AND my wife has me to fuel it up and back it into the garage every night. ๐ My daughter lives in New Jersey... She ain't allowed to pump her own fuel by law, does she check to make sure the gas cap is on? ***** no!
-
Nobody criminally. Is it regulated by law? It was an accident. Now, maybe civil... Who didn't follow policy? But... I generally agree with your post. I GUESS we can use the Brandon Lee case as an example. How did that go? I noted it was a Hulu production. Things aren't a closed shop in Hollywood anymore. Just like out on Main Street, USA... You think you're non-Union shop can protect it's workers better? ๐ Yeah, right...

I assume some scenes may need a different effect... Like a bullet hitting an object and shattering it? I guess they got a little too close to reality which caused a mix up. Again... I'd like to know what a blank round looks like, how to tell the difference and the mechanics behind it. I know a live round will hit the pin, it explodes, then send the projectile. Then spent shell/casing is expelled or left there (revolver). What happens when a blank round fires? There can't be a projectile, right? Just cap and a casing. How does a blank fill the chamber without sending anything through the barrel? I know they say never assume, but I would guess AB assumed what ever they gave him was safe. He's acting. It's his job. Now in real life, you check twice. /smdh... Is Trump donating the proceeds? Maybe he did have the mix-up take place. ๐

Yup! Job is to act. If it means pointing a gun during a scene... I trust the team not to steer me wrong. Not my job to check them. They are actors creating a scene. This ain't a little kid or heck anybody else pointing a weapon at a person. It's just plain stupid to equate acting with normal gun handling. Safety management should have been in place to hand a cold gun off to the actor properly. It's not the actor's job to check... In real life it's of course everyone's. Anyway, probably occasions where they need a live weapon. The actor is being paid to act. The safety team is in charge of a zero-fail mission. They failed here. It's simply not the actor's job here to constantly check. You lose the moment and spontaneity of the scene. Nothing would get shot (excuse the bad pun) if there was continued checking by the actors. Look... This only happens once every 25 years or so.... It ain't like our government thugs on main street USA ๐๐ Where it happens daily. Yeah, those guys need to check and trust only themselves.
