  - [deleted] 8
    - I think "leg room" is really a red herring here. If reclining is part of the ticket you're paying for, then isn't having a usable tray table part of the ticket for the other person? - Ender Aug 27, 12:13 1

        Of course he is. - ty97 Aug 27, 12:05
- I'm 6-6. If you're in front of me, there is no place for your seat to recline. -- nm - Reagen Aug 27, 11:57 11

    - Advantages? You mean, not having crippling knee pain? - Reagen Aug 27, 12:03 6
      - The people in question were in these seats -- (link) - ty97 Aug 27, 12:06 2
        
        Typically a 50 to 100% markup on the flights I travel on - Reagen Aug 27, 12:08 1
        
        I wasn't telling you to buy the seats. I was explaining these people were in those seats. - ty97 Aug 27, 12:10

        I almost always try to stand near the back at concerts. - Reagen Aug 27, 12:07 1
        
        [deleted]
  - But you won't buy and utilize a device that prevents their seat from reclining, would you? -- nm - Beryllium Aug 27, 11:57 1
    - you can take a taser on board now? -- nm - DaneDukeNuuk Aug 27, 11:59

re: those collard green ideas from last week - Reagen Aug 27, 11:45 5
- I would fry up that baby corn with even more bacon, slice some beefsteak tomatoes, slap you and serve it on the side of those collards. - Diva Aug 27, 11:50 4
  - but not with? -- nm - Reagen Aug 27, 11:51 3
    - I probably wouldn't but I imagine the sweetness of the baby corn would complement the tang of the collards very well. - Diva Aug 27, 11:52 2
      - Oh yes, There Will Be Bacon - Reagen Aug 27, 11:53 1
        
        that one should have had a much happier ending. -- nm - Diva Aug 27, 11:54

How much do I dislike Amanda Fucking Palmer? She makes a Weird Al song unlistenable. - TWuG Aug 27, 11:21
LIR deevs - that play sounds gut wrenchingly emotional ... yeesh ... break a leg - like you need to hear it from me. - JenBro Aug 27, 11:20 15

  - Every time I catch a show down at the Gem I see you in one of the parts.... - Meg Aug 27, 11:26 11
    - :) - that would be awesome. How was the production? -- nm - Diva Aug 27, 11:31 10
      - I enjoyed it greatly. Thing is their performances always leave me wanting to see the 'original' version to see what they might have changed. - Meg Aug 27, 11:43 9
        
        I was in Gypsy once. - Kim Pine Aug 27, 11:52 6
        
        We had newsboys in June's act and newsgirls in Louise's. -- nm - Meg Aug 27, 11:56 3
        
        The Toreadorables? (heh-heh...) -- nm - Diva Aug 27, 11:57 2
        
        Right :) Also - not sure if this is traditional - we had showgirls putting up signs for the various acts/locations and in - Meg Aug 27, 12:00 1

        That's interesting... - Diva Aug 27, 11:47 1
        
        I'd never heard of Assassins before this...I should do that. I was also unfamiliar with Violet which they did earlier this year. I *had* - Meg Aug 27, 11:51

- it's too hot for me -- nm - JenBro Aug 27, 11:21 1
  - really? don't try Sambal Oelek then -- nm - decline Aug 27, 11:30
- I don't think I've tasted sirachi sauce -- nm - Krusty Aug 27, 11:18 23
  - That seems impossible. I wouldn't be shocked if Dr. Pepper comes out with a Sriracha flavour soon. -- nm - Reagen Aug 27, 11:21
  - You should - it's as American as can be. (In that it expropriates a foreign culture for marketing reasons, but is also awesome) -- nm - Beryllium Aug 27, 11:20 16
    - Huy Fong Foods is family owned by Chinese Vietnamese. They have been making chili sauce for generations and migrated over during Vietnam -- nm - con_carne Aug 27, 11:28 8
      - ketchup was Asian first too. -- nm - Reagen Aug 27, 11:46 3
        
        That I didn't know... but it's funny because I have always thought ketchup is the sauce sriracha most resembles :) -- nm - con_carne Aug 27, 11:47 2
        
        North American culture is great at taking stuff, putting it through the LCD filter and saying "ours now!" -- nm - Reagen Aug 27, 11:52 1
        
        after adding a ton of sugar :) -- nm - decline Aug 27, 11:52
      - and if you buy sriracha it's the only brand to get -- nm - decline Aug 27, 11:32 3
        
        Right, the one with the green cap and the rooster on it -- nm - con_carne Aug 27, 11:34 2
        
        cock sauce! -- nm - Tim Aug 27, 11:53 1
        
        exactly -- nm - decline Aug 27, 11:53
    - I like hot sauce so I'm not against trying it. I just don't think I've tasted it yet. -- nm - Krusty Aug 27, 11:22 6
      - This Theoatmeal comic is a classic summary of sriracha -- (link) - con_carne Aug 27, 11:46 4
        
        except sriracha isn't really that hot -- nm - decline Aug 27, 12:01 2
        
        To people who recoil at spice, it is inedible. - Beryllium Aug 27, 12:07
        
        Yup. It's more like a spicy cock(heh-heh)tail sauce -- nm - con_carne Aug 27, 12:06
        
        "delicious hot cock" -- nm - Tim Aug 27, 11:59
      - Dominoes has that flavor in a pizza. -- nm - Remlik Aug 27, 11:42
  - do you eat chinese food? -- nm - groiny Aug 27, 11:19 4
    - Like three things, not much. Fried rice, egg drop soup and spare ribs. -- nm - Krusty Aug 27, 11:21 3
      - If you ever wished those foods were spicy, that's where sriracha comes in -- nm - con_carne Aug 27, 11:53
      - I love fried rice with some sriracha sauce mixed in. - groiny Aug 27, 11:22 1
        
        I'll see if my local spot has some when I'm in there. - Krusty Aug 27, 11:25
- White Castle has sriracha chicken sandwiches now that are fantastic. nm -- nm - groiny Aug 27, 11:09 2
  - That does sound very good -- nm - amoxy Aug 27, 11:10 1
    - they sell a version with jalepenos and papper jack cheese. - groiny Aug 27, 11:11
- Right? And you can get industrial sriracha from costco. -- nm - Beryllium Aug 27, 11:08
Your top 5 songs: Shake It Off, Anaconda, All About That Bass, Stay With Me, Rude - Tim Aug 27, 11:04 37
- Anaconda annoys me. I like the rest, especially All About That Bass. -- nm - JaxSean Aug 27, 12:05
- thats a lye - DaneDukeNuuk Aug 27, 11:32 2
  - Three of them are in the top ten in Denmark! -- (link) - Tim Aug 27, 11:34 1

    - [deleted] 6
      - she did this one at the VMA awards and sounded terrible doing it. - groiny Aug 27, 11:16 3
        
        Then this vid of the performance with the vocal track isolated may be of interest to some -- (link) - con_carne Aug 27, 11:20 2
        
        That's silly that they're saying its bad. Her voice sounds strong on it. It just sounds weird because it's isolated. She's in key and her voice is - pmb Aug 27, 11:53 1
        
        she's really not that bad there. Especially since she's dancing so hard. It just sounds like a pure live pop vocal. -- nm - Diva Aug 27, 11:56
      - The bridge ruins it for me, I don't mind it up until that point. (Max Martin still must be stopped.) -- nm - Tim Aug 27, 11:15 1
        
        [deleted]
- Stay With Me is really just an updated version of "We've Got Tonight". -- nm - Inigo Aug 27, 11:09
- One of those songs is good. -- nm - ty97 Aug 27, 11:08 20
  - Not even. -- nm - Spawn Aug 27, 11:22
  - I like the Shake It Off song and video plenty. Anaconda is an abomination of editing. -- nm - Max Aug 27, 11:16 1
    - but Sir Mix-a-Lot still gettin' paid. -- nm - Tim Aug 27, 11:26
  - You're just that big a fan of white boy slacker reggae. -- nm - Reagen Aug 27, 11:10 16
    - Is the lead singer as well known in Canada as he's made out to be? -- nm - Tim Aug 27, 11:16 2
      - admittedly I don't watch any entertainment TV, but I've never seen any mainstream news mentions of him - Reagen Aug 27, 11:19 1
        
        Ah, seems to just be some minor hits about ten years ago, he's mainly been a songwriter since then. -- nm - Tim Aug 27, 11:22
    - Don't make me listen to all those songs to get your joke references -- nm - con_carne Aug 27, 11:14 2
      - Why you gotta be so rude? -- nm - ty97 Aug 27, 11:22
      - I suffer, you suffer! -- nm - Reagen Aug 27, 11:20
    - The success of that song perplexes me far more than any other song on that list - ty97 Aug 27, 11:12 8
      - You'll like this article. I've interacted with the writer on Twitter a good bit. -- (link) - Tim Aug 27, 11:17
      - I don't think I know 3 of the 5. nm -- nm - groiny Aug 27, 11:12 6
        
        #1 and #2 are very new. #3 is relatively new (I think?). - ty97 Aug 27, 11:14
        
        Anaconda is basically Baby Got Back with some Nicki Minaj raps. -- nm - Tim Aug 27, 11:14 4
        
        oh,. that is one of the ones I know. - groiny Aug 27, 11:14 3
        
        least surprising IM of the month -- nm - ty97 Aug 27, 11:23 2
