The [i]american academy of pediatrics [/i] is the big one It’s also the one that silently and without notice took down decades of guidance about letting infants see facial movement/expression when speaking (for language development, etc) because they didn’t want it to provide an argument against ...

re: Dr Pepper has passed Pepsi

Posted by Pettifogger on 6/5/24 at 2:52 pm
I really don't know how to describe it, but Pepsi has a "cola" taste to me that is closer to RC Cola, generic store colas, etc. and Coke is completely on its own out on an island. An island that the large majority prefers, mind you. ...

I'm not sure what I believe on this. But I think a valid counterpoint would be: The election doesn't really MEAN anything. Your neighbors who blacked out social media for BLM and will let their kids be indoctrinated with trans stuff under peer pressure and will vote to soak the rich occasionall...
[quote]RICO[/quote] Seriously, I'm not creative enough to come up with the claims, but it was a well-orchestrated scheme to fraudulently influence an election The left would find a way to get indictments - we should do the same. And candidly, counterpunching by going after these types would...
This is why national divorce is probably unrealistic. We have lots of evidence that progressives will fight extremely hard to keep Americans who want to be left own alone and self-govern from doing so. ...
I'll be honest unless they get the order wrong, I can't recall having an inedible/bad Wendy's burger. I'm no advocate for Wendy's or fast food generally, but it's a pretty reliable product IMO if you're getting classic or whatever they call it....
I think the go-to Mexican concept was especially prevalent in the Deep South where every town of 20k+ had 5 strip mall Mexican places (90s/00s) that all had the same menu items and were pretty similar from place to place. There wasn't really any reason to go to El Ranchero over La Hacienda, they we...
Rand is the most prominent voice on those issues, and he's doing what any politician does - leveraging what they have to secure whatever they can get - in this case, some degree of assurances/commitments from a guy he's going to support as President regardless. Rand knows his bargaining positio...

re: Worst coffee brand

Posted by Pettifogger on 6/4/24 at 3:47 pm
All the pre-ground mass produced stuff (like exclusively preground and mass produced - Folgers, Maxwell House, etc.) is terrible. It tastes primarily like the cheaply made drip machine used to brew it. Next is the slightly better mass produced and mostly old/ground stuff - Chock full o nuts, m...

AU vs NW LA or something like that, I don't remember. Some bad homecoming game in the 90s. Most enjoyable was probably the 2004 UGA game. Natty was good, of course. Worst was the blackout UGA Soulja boy game Although nothing broke my heart like UVA in Minneapolis....
There are a lot of things that I think are getting too expensive and I question the utility for most people. Having pretty much any music I want in a very UI-friendly package for 10-20 bucks a month is not in that category. ...

[quote]Little Rey…much better than Superica [/quote] How so? They're the same thing anyway. I like Little Rey for the breakfast taco options, but prefer Superica all around (and it comes out surprisingly less expensive for the same stuff). ...
