Mr. Sparkle

I could fall in love with a woman who smells like meatloaf. It does have technical problems. A few days ago I got that "504" error. Today it's just a bit sluggish.

It variously reminds me of Monty Python/Time Bandits, Dr. Who and this awful Disney movie "The Descendants." I like it, but the last episode wasn't the best, and I've kind of lost the plot. It's mostly character & set driven anyway.

Oooh, Albert's about to punch Miss Plum and that Carter kid! First he's gonna fall on his ass playing baseball.

I played bass in a lot of crappy rock bands, mostly in the 90s. We didn't really become best buds again. I became friends with the drummer of our first band together. The drummer and I formed another band, and later this guy joined that band. I kind of let it go.

I had a friend like that. We were pals, were even in a band, and then he found a girlfriend and I was ghosted. Then she left him for another woman, and I was popular again.

I think we saw it once or twice. My question is, where was it? Was it a rental? Who owned it? If she did, how did she afford a nice place in town when the Ingalls lived in a kid's clubhouse? In the episode where they come back from Winoka, Hanson is in some room upstairs. Was that above the Dr's office? Was it like an infirmary? Did Doc Baker live there too? These are all questions I have. The only people that we definitely know where they lived are the Olesons.

Now that I think of it, in the later season episode with Dr. LeDoux (sp?) he is seen peering out of an upstairs window, presumably his apartment. Was there an apartment building with rooms in the town? Did he share a bathroom with Miss Beadle?

Holy sh!t, that is hysterical and accurate. I liked Dirty Dishes. 0% chance of me paying a single penny to watch it.

I respectfully disagree. Pepe is funny, but so one-note. Not to mention the sexual harassment suits. Those were freakin' clever.

Totally. You can eat them like a burger. When I would come home from school, it was Popeye, Woody Woodpecker and then Looney Tunes. Still my favorites.

I would try blood sausage before I would try a beefsteak tomato.

Every show needs a villain, and she's a good one. And legit funny a lot of the time!

Nope. Not waiting for the pop, not watching that, and you can't make me.

Head cheese sounds and looks disgusting. I've never tried it. My grandmother used to make something called p'tcha, which is equally disgusting and I never used to eat it. She also made borscht, which I never ate because I don't like beets. But I'd chow down on her fricasee, which is a stew made from chicken feet and gizzards. Also gefilte fish, which is kind of the spam of fish. Most people hate it, but I love it. I'm an adventurous eater, but some things just bother me. Snails, crickets, rattlesnake? I've tried them all. Raw tomatoes? Don't even want it on my plate.

I would try that. I generally enjoy meat pies, or as we call them around here, empanadas. He had some great lines. "You don't like baseball? Something kind of yeesh about a boy who doesn't like baseball."

Totally agree. Before this episode, I thought Harold and the actor who plays him were one of the better parts of the series. In this episode, he practically rubbed his hands together like an evil fly. The parts in Vegas were at least visually interesting, but otherwise this episode was a dud.

Tripe doesn't really taste like anything, it takes on whatever sauce you put on it. Still, the idea is pretty disgusting. I've never had kidneys, but my grandfather was a butcher and we'd get entire cow tongues. It's absolutely delicious, but again, I can understand the aversion.

Don't feel bad, if she saw me she'd either run or use the bow and arrow! 😵

🤢🤮

I tried tripe once because I heard it was actually good. It wasn't terrible but I didn't like the texture. It's never on a menu and no one makes it for me, so it never comes up. Liver is absolutely vile. My mother would make chicken liver and onions and I couldn't stomach it. Weirdly, I can eat chopped liver and pate. When I was a kid I used to LOVE Hormel chili and Dintey Moore's beef stew. I haven't had either in a while. I also liked Chef Boyardee ravioli and stuff like that.

1/ She sees you and stays hiding!! 😜

Yeah, either packed in oil or water. Skinless and boneless.

Snausages.

I guess my trip to Nashville is off! Now those I love. Sardines on a roll with onion?? F yeah! My breath is delightful after that!

They look like dog snacks to me. Something about canned meat bothers me. Me too. I rooted for the Titans, and look where that got ol' Nashville.
