I learned more about brisket from a drunk guy at my bar than from any YouTube video

Really feel you on that, @amy154. It's wild how people pick up random skills in the weirdest places, but I'd be too paranoid about the math and safety too. Did your buddy at least say if the bacon turned out okay?

Had to pick between a used Snap-on dent puller and a new Pittsburgh one at Harbor Freight last month

Yeah the cheap stuff does that, it's like it's made of butter and hope. Bet that Snap-on would have lasted through a whole salvage yard worth of doors before it even thought about stripping. Sometimes you really do get what you pay for when the metal actually has to do work.

Had a chat with a dude at a red light about blasting heavy metal

@hart.mark you're really gonna go with that old chestnut? "Walk" is fine but it's the most basic Pantera pick out there. It's like saying "Enter Sandman" is the best Metallica song. Yeah it's the one everyone knows but it's not even top 5 on that album, "Fucking Hostile" or "Mouth For War" hit way harder. And honestly Phil's screaming in that era has aged weirdly compared to when they were more thrashy. I respect the nostalgia but that song is the closest thing to a dad rock anthem they ever made.

The day a pastry chef in Portland changed how I blind bake pie crusts

Whoa, the freezer trick works better if you chill the dough after rolling it out too!

Can we talk about how DBZ Kai actually holds up better than the original?

Did you catch that episode of the Team Four Star podcast where they talked about this? They made a good point about how Kai's script is way closer to the original manga's dialogue, which fixes a lot of the weird translation errors from the old dub.
