I am from the southeast US. I don't necessarily believe any of these dishes are unique to my area, but I really enjoy them.

  1. Grits. Sort of like oatmeal but corn. There are plenty of ways to make it, some make it sweet, some make it savory, some do a little of both. Shrimp and grits is a popular dish, but I think it's more associated with Louisiana specifically.
  2. Divinity. A very rich, sugary treat. I haven't had many chances to have this, but it's very good. It's the sort of treat I associate with big family dinners on Thanksgiving from family members who "haven't seen [me] since [I] was this big" who have long since passed away.
  3. Reindeer Mix and Diddly Doos. These are two winter treats my family makes. I don't believe they're local dishes or anything, but because my mom makes them I do consider them cultural. Reindeer Mix is essentially home made Chex Mix you mix a few forms of Chex cereals with other ingredients and drizzle a savory sauce over it and bake it. Tastes best warm. Diddly Doos are basically cheese biscuit/crackers. Think "cheese straw" but shaped in a disk. I think some people call them cheese doodles.

That's weird, I always viewed GPS as a form of American Imperialism. Sure, it's a bit extreme maybe, but America does own and operate it and jam it when enemies try to use it.

I wouldn't be surprised if that isn't a direct quote from the show lol.

One that always sticks out is:

  • Wanda: Cosmo was right??
  • Cosmo: One in a row! A new record!

You won't get logical answers to this because there isn't one. Maybe they're just that dumb. Maybe they just want to tank the economy a bit so the rich and gobble up more during the dip. Maybe they just actually love Russia. Maybe they're being secretly black mailed by Russia.

Oh I'm so sorry someone asked for an enamel pin from Amazon. Maybe next time someone asks me for a gift from somewhere I'll subject them to a purity test.

There was a scam on Discord that involved a fake Discord support person. I played along and was trying to get them to send me a malicious link or ask me to do something they shouldn't so I could report them, but they never got around to it. I think they could tell I was wise to it.

Very tempted to change my display name to Fediverse Chick.

I had an Amazon bot lie to me. I told it some item didn't show up and I wanted a replacement. It said it would send one and it would show up in my orders. It never did. So I requested a refund later. So tedious.

Every CVE I flip a coin.

Different file system formats have different strengths and weaknesses. There isn't a universal best one.
