Personally, I'd settle for TOP GAY where a bunch of Brits put a couple of high end gays through their paces, often with amusing quips and results.

Their new show has a stretch of track called the Isn't Straight, because it isn't straight.

The guy Philip in this story used to bartend at the restaurant where my girlfriend works. I've been to that CVS like twenty times. It's easy to read a racism undertone into the story but after talking to him it turns out that the CVS employees were black (like him), which makes this whole thing just completely baffling.

Regarding the Pizza ID. Amherst is a town built on its single college that has a reputation for being a party school. I've heard of stupider things than this coming out of there. This i believe, and if the event in this story didnt happen, then someone really similar has and that's good enough for me.

There are two colleges in Amherst: UMass and Amherst College :colbert:. But that girl sounds more like a Hampshire College type in any case. She'll probably turn in the rest of the pizza as her senior thesis.

The theory I read on another site is that everyone involved in the story was really high. The store employees got super paranoid and hid, and then the customer spent 30 minutes wandering around the empty store looking for cheese. It starts to make sense in that context.

I never heard of Amherst before, but that post mentioned the University of Massachusetts, Amherst College, and Hampshire College.
That sounds like three to me.

Huh, you're right. This is embarrassing, I went to UMass but I thought Hampshire was technically in one of the surrounding towns. Amherst does have a fair amount of land area.

Yeah, I watched a Tom Scott video about it, and he actually had to edit an extra bit onto the end where he said something like "So I've just landed at Heathrow, a few hours after filming that bit in front of the goat, and I'm told it's already burned down."

The annual burning of the Gävle Julbock is usually also the only news item from Northern Sweden that gets any airtime in the Finnish news.

Only other notable thing that ever has happened there during the last 40 years was the decision to move one entire town 10 km down the road because of the danger of collapses and cave-ins because of mining veins under the city being too close to the surface.

And they're planning to move it again, they just need to finish arguing over who's going to pay for it.
