The idea of a commercialised replica of the Titanic has itself been criticised, being described as "insensitive" and "a mockery of the memory of those who died".[52] Charles Haas, president of the U.S.-based Titanic International Society, questioned both its appropriateness and commercial viability, telling Scientific American, "It’s a matter of sensitivity, respect and thoughtfulness ... we commemorate tragedies and those lost in them, not duplicate them".[53] The New York Times quoted Haas as saying, "As good as the Titanic was in her day, it would be a practical and financial disaster", due to the relative lack of onboard activities and modern amenities such as theaters, casinos, and waterslides, compared to today's cruise ships.[54] Cunard Line, which acquired the White Star Line legacy when the companies merged in 1934, stated that they "have always been very mindful and very respectful of such a tragic event [and] don't think that building a replica or a 'II' is appropriate."[55]

I heard that Americans, especially those in the south, would get a seizure if they were to experience what Europeans call a bbq party.

the only thing that would cause them more severe mental damage would be attending a non-southern bbq where they found nothing to be theatrically outraged about.

you start with a pack of minced beef, a tin of red kidney beans, a tin of tomatoes, a teaspoon of something we call “chilli powder”, and - if you’re particularly adventurous - a drop or two of tabasco

the main thing that chili nerds argue about is whether it's ok to add beans or tomatoes and still call it chili. imo pan-americans are (rightfully) way more protective of barbecue

it says one of the popular gongoozling locations is at the falkirk wheel. whats that?

Order half the regular amount of cheese and reduce the calories. A regular 3-Way with half the cheese has 20% fewer calories.

edit: on second thought, I don't think I ever wanted to know that Skyline serves burritos, what the gently caress

better to order nothing and leave, never to return to that cursed establishment. there is no worse fast food

ok its not actually that bad i was just really disappointed one time when people said 'chili' and i got what's at skyline instead and i guess i hold a grudge

[Dave] Cutler is known for his disdain for all things Unix. His sardonic nature showed through in the VMS versus Unix debates at Digital in the early 1980s. He expressed his low opinion of the Unix process input/output model by reciting "Get a byte, get a byte, get a byte byte byte" to the tune of the finale of Rossini's William Tell Overture.

There's a wikipedia article that's a huge tabular list of fictional vampires and facts about them and Count Chocula and the Count from Sesame Street both have entries. Count Chocula's weakness is becoming soggy in milk.

I actually find this very funny but there isn't "post unintentionally brilliant things you can find on Wikipedia" thread.

all the genres of electronic music are basically that, and the people obsessed with cataloguing it will argue that using a slightly different version of the same amen break sample is enough to constitute a different genre.
