I learn best when I am interacting and doing hands on kind of stuff. Someone can explain things to me all day long, but it won't necessarily click in my mind until I try it out for myself. I'm not a fan of lectures for this reason. As a language teacher I use this approach in my classroom to...

Are you expected to tip at Sonic? I went to one for the first time the other day and I wasn't sure on the protocol for when you sit in your car and they come out to your window. Ice cream was decent but nothing special. I'll probably return for half priced shakes after 8pm.

You know, I swear it was separately listed as "Quarter Pounder" and "Quarter Pounder with cheese" on the menu board, but looking at their website I only see it with cheese. Interesting. It could be that I misread the menu board, as I was at the drive thru and I don't handle such high pressure...

I enjoyed this, but it was a bit disappointing overall because it had a lot of potential. My biggest gripe is that for a movie called "Tomorrowland", we don't get very much Tomorrowland. Details in spoiler if anyone is interested:

I don't know if you're joking with this or not, but Dr. Thunder is awesome. This is the one soda we always have at our family gatherings because everyone in our family loves it.

I vote go for it, as long as you're not doing it solely for the money. If you're genuinely interested in the city/country/culture/travel opportunities, then don't pass it up. It'll be an experience you'll remember for the rest of your life. This is doubly true if you've never spent a significant...

Lol at the germaphobes. You can't worry so much about germs. Just eat a balanced, healthy diet and wash your hands regularly and you'll be fine. I almost never get sick, and I routinely eat handfuls of Runts on the ride home from the grocery store after touching the germ-infested handles of the...

Holy shit, this has been an awesome day. I ordered a regular quarter pounder at McD's but they gave me a quarter pounder with cheese. Between that and the gummy worms I'm going to bed with a thoroughly tickled pickle.

What is the job?

Another one: that sweet, sugary smell that hangs in your car after leaving an open bag of sour gummy worms in it all night.

One big reason I was a fat kid (other than subsisting on hot pockets almost exclusively) is that I would drink about half a gallon of OJ in a sitting. It's fruit juice! It's healthy!

Finishing a bag of sour gummy worms, only to realize hours later when you go to throw it away that there is still one gummy worm left in the bottom corner.

Speaking of delicious drinks, I've become addicted to the light cherry limeade at the Firehouse Subs Coke Freestyle Machine. This stuff is A++ and I practically drown myself in it every time I go. I think it's only in the Firehouse Subs freestyle machines. I've seen other freestyle machines but...

I think Black Panther is such a lesser-known character that Marvel can take him in any direction they want. This will basically be his introduction to the vast, vast majority of people so they get to set the tone for him, and I doubt they care if he doesn't exactly match what comic book readers...

I just heard an advertisement for Dewshine on the radio the other day, talking about how it hearkens back to Mountain Dew's back woods roots.

Typical woman. I think most guys would rather be shot in the chest than the balls. Given the context (awful offseason discussion and Reddit) I had to read this question twice before I realized it wasn't asking about a hypothetical situation where Barry reveals himself as gay.

Is that obese woman still on the team? She'd make a great booth babe for E3.

It's always seemed to me that Trader Joe's has an inordinate amount of food recalls compared with other grocery stores. This is entirely based on my perception and I have no statistics to back it up.

The best way to get + Tocunets is to learn how to properly photoshop Santa hats on people's avatars. Start practicing now, and by December you'll be an expert and have more Tocunets than you know what to do with.

Wow, great episode. I wasn't paying attention to the run time and was completely caught off guard that the episode ended where/when it did. Going to be a long summer! Also, Hawk Girl's got some big ol' teeth.

90% of Return to Oz and the Easter Bunny scenes from Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey are the two most frightening memories from my childhood.

WTB American version of Secret Eaters.

Yeah, I agree it's not in Wakanda. I'm sure if they had actually gone to Wakanda they would have made a point of stating that, since it's such a hugely important location. I think the source of the confusion is that in one scene they're talking about Wakanda, and in the next they're in an...

You're right. I think my subconscious racism came out. I guess if it had been Wakanda then Black Panther would have shown up and gotten the Hulk in an armbar to end the rampage.

I don't see how "nothing else with a lasting impact" happened. I think this movie set up a few important things that will affect the future films: - A real re-emergence of SHIELD as an effective force (with the helicarrier and new SHIELD/Avengers base) - New Avengers roster with Vision...

THIS movie will make a lot of money, because everyone will see it out even if it's just out of morbid curiosity. However, if it bombs it's going to pretty much kill the chance that any of the future DC cinematic universe movies have of being hugely profitable. Of course, DC has shown they aren't...

Yep, meanwhile the missing FBI woman thought she had been there for 12 years, when in fact it had only been 5 weeks. I also haven't read the source material, but I was happy to see that SorrowsEnd post that everything is eventually explained. I was surprised at how quickly the first episode...

This Max guy, whoever the fuck he is, is atrocious. There are a couple commercials with him now, and they don't really make any sense. It's starting to feel like McD's is just pulling random ideas out of a hat for food items, marketing, and company decisions.

I really enjoyed this.

I'm a big fan of stretching. I usually start each workout with 10 - 15 minutes of simple stretching. I didn't use to stretch, but I really hurt my lower back in winter 2014 shoveling snow, and stretching REALLY helped ease (and eventually get rid of) the pain. I've continued stretching and...

I thought this was interesting. I'm doing an EdX course about super heroes, and in the first week they asked everyone in the course (thousands of people by the looks of it) who their favorite super hero and super villain is, and then put the responses into a word cloud. They were free-form...

I've dealt with this twice now, and I think you should be fairly certain that either: a) you'll get the new job you interview for, or b) your current job won't be super pissed at you interviewing elsewhere. Both times I've interviewed at direct competitors of my current gig I was lucky enough to...

It was a rhetorical question. Anyway, baking is fine but I like to coat them in oil and seasoning first. I'm not some fatty who deep fries fries at home. Went to mcds for breakfast and ordered a bacon egg and cheese biscuit, but got a sausage and egg biscuit. Not even any fucking cheese. I...

Lol well yeah you gotta toss them in oil + old bay first. Who the hell makes just plain baked fries? No flavor whatsoever.

My advice is to stop running because it is awful and boring and there are much more enjoyable ways to get exercise.

old bay on ore ida fries. is best

Me, Myself, and Irene. I've never walked out in the middle of a movie, but this was the closest I've come to that. I've never actually sat down and rewatched it in its entirety since, but I've seen bits and pieces on TV here and there and it doesn't seem as bad as I remember it. I might have...

HAES is quite possibly the most infuriating movement I've ever heard of. Sometimes I browse /r/fatlogic and /r/fatpeoplehate and just let my anger boil up and seethe at the sheer stupidity and insanity of the people who actually believe they're healthy at obese weights. It takes a lot to rustle...

Wow, me too. They were great. That's quite possibly the only triangular chip that was ever tastier than Nacho Cheese Doritos. RIP.

I wonder, are there any stats on how much interest the movies have garnered for the comic books? I can see a lot of people watching the movies and getting interested in picking up some comics for the same characters. In that case, it would probably benefit Marvel to have as much similarity...
