The Whats What, Volume 8

I think I’m going to go get some steak and eggs at Waffle House. By myself. I bring my book along with me and sit and read.  Maybe I should go to Ihop instead… -omnibus

Sausage and Bacon are the only meats you are allowed to order at an IHop or Denny’s.  Couldn’t you just hit a diner and get a higher quality slice of beef?

Jameson, huh?  Straight or with coke? – Moonatic

Neither, Ginger Ale.  Did you know that a large number of restaurants do not have actual ginger ale?  They’ll just 90% Sprite, and 10% Cola your ass behind your back and not even say a word. Ginger Ale is great.  You need a good brand though; Schweppes, Seagrams, Canada Dry.  Any generic GA always ends up tasting too lemony, or too gingery.

My local chinese joint refuses to give me fortune cookies even though I ask for them The bastard think they can to deny ME!? I want my damn fortune cookies especially if I specifically ASK for them. -4emlock

Did you know Fortune cookies were invented in California?  Chinese food is actually American food?  There are more chinese food restaurants in America then McDonalds, Burger King, KFC’s and diners combined?  General Tso is a war hero in China.  No one in China has ever heard of his chicken.  But by all means, continue to get bent out of shape over a cookie with trash in the middle.

My friend thinks reading a book and listening to it on tape is the same thing. he just got done listening to a book on tape and i was making fun of him cause he couldnt read the book. then he started saying its the same thing. tell him hes wrong. -SGilliganGriffen

Have him read sheet music, and then listen to it.  Ask him if he noticed a difference.

How is porn legal and prostitution not? In both scenario’s women are getting paid to have sex. One is just on camera.  -dellimate

I’ve often wondered the same thing.  Does this mean you could just bring a camcorder with you while picking up prostitutes and get away from any sting operation by just committing to the story you need hookers for porn movies?

would you shoot an innocent villager in the face? He would be strapped down to a chair and no one would ever know. For example, an african villager. Or any country that has “villages” that don’t really have any sort of modern technology/resources to track down/solve a murder.  After you kill him you will receive unlimited wealth and bitches.  do you do it? -Blenderk

When I think of all the people I could help with unlimited wealth, then yes.  If someone could use my death to spearhead a campaign to make the world a better place, I would happily give my life.

You seem informed on the internet fads, explain ” I drink your milkshake” please. -blech2120

It was an anlogy used in the Teapot Dome anti-trust lawsuit against oil companies in the middle of last century that became popular after Paul Thomas Anderson plagiarized it and put it in their movie, There Will be Blood.  It was originally designed to rationalize stealing of anothers property.  Which is ironic, because very few knew it was a reference to the anti-trust lawsuits while they were watching it.  Or the following mayhem that ensued when everyone thought it was great.  Do you think the majority of people expected to learn a history quoteable in this obviously fictionalized movie?  So, in a way, Paul Anderson was drinking someone elses milkshake by not giving credit to the line.
