4·18 days agoI love the scene at the very end where Mal is staring out the cargo hold door during takeoff. Still butt naked, grinning like a pig in shit at how well their ploy worked. Arguably a better final scene than the actual final episode!

1·18 days agoDepends on the state, apparently. There’s no codified federal definition for what constitutes a “milkshake”. As opposed to something like ice cream which is very much codified at a federal level.
I posted a link further down, but apparently national chains do this is to avoid dealing with state regulations. “Its not a milkshake, its a Blizzard!”

2·18 days agoThe definition has changed throughout the years, hopefully we can all at least agree on that. Some early “shakes” had no milk whatsoever! I didn’t know this either, but apparently the US has no legal definition of what constitutes a milkshake, leaving it up to the individual states to decide.
I also found this little snippet particularly interesting for this conversation:
As an ice cream drink, the 20th-century milkshake’s only serious contenders have been its legions of imitators. United States federal code defines ice cream down to the amount of air it may contain, but is silent on milkshakes, leaving their parameters to states. For restaurants with regional or national reach, the simplest way to sidestep dozens of states’ conflicting milkshake definitions within their territories is not to sell milkshakes. Many, instead, offer “shakes” or milkshake-adjacent frozen dessert drinks with branded names that suggest creamy coldness, but avoid the legal entanglements of calling them “milkshakes.”
This is why you end up with Blizzards and Frosties apparently!

2·18 days agoMight have some milk, but when I went overseas a milk shake was literally milk with crushed ice blended intop a drink.

7·27 days agoNormal ass websites will monitor user inputs to do things like profile users. I’m pretty sure those “click to show youre not a robot” captchas actually capture how your mouse moves to the box, for example. It’s not that crazy honestly.
I’m sorry, I thought you were joking. I wasn’t making fun of him at all, merely adding some support to what protist was saying - there’s a difference between saying someone is narcissistic (exhibiting narcissitic personality traits) and saying someone has NPD, or “grandiose narcissism”. I think a small amount of narcissism is probably necessary for maintaining things like self-esteem. Greek mythology is full of some really messed up stories, I think we can both agree on that at least.
Ovid! That’s the name I couldn’t remember. I looked it up and ‘Echo and Narcissus’ is definitely the version I remember reading in school.
