There’s a great episode of The Dollop about the Segway guy. 565 - Dean Kamen and It.
I’m not saying it’s good food, I’m saying it’s decent food and good value.
I, personally, would call their Philly Cheesesteak pizza “good” food. Not, like, local restaurant level good. But early days of COVID that was my little bit of sanity. Order a couple pizzas from Dominos delivery on Sunday, eat a slice of each for lunch every day.
Whoa. Was it like, Pequod’s or something?
Dominos turned their shit around like, I dunno, 15 years ago or so. When they started making oven baked sandwiches.
I honestly really like some of their pizzas. It’s not bad. They just know that it used to be, many years ago.
It’s like when Buick made those commercials about how their new cars actually look good so people don’t realize they’re Buicks. When you have a reputation, sometimes it’s a good idea to acknowledge it.
Cool. Just want to make sure we’re all hating one another correctly. 🙄
Of course we do, it’s the nectar of the gods.
Damn I really want some Rock n Rye now.
Pretty sure it should be “dronie,” not “dronnie,” by English phonetics.
Unless you’re pronouncing it like the name “Donnie” but with an ‘r’ in there.

I wish people knew this wasn’t a word.
Literally all words are made up. There isn’t some cosmic rule that says words have to be a certain way.
This means that as usage changes, new words are born.
Dictionaries recognize this better than the people who worship them. Dictionaries are descriptive, not prescriptive. Their job is to help people understand one another. Which is why the word “podium” in many dictionaries has a North American added definition for “see lectern.” Because when people in North America say “podium,” the usually mean a lectern. So now the word podium also means lectern.
So if enough people use “everytime” with sufficient frequency, it will enter dictionaries. Just like “anytime” did after people started using it in the 1800s. Same with “everyday.”
Don’t get me wrong, I wouldn’t recommend using non-standard vocabulary in a formal setting, like an article or a paper or some technical document. But Lemmy posts are informal.
Edit: Also, for what it’s worth, I frequently offer corrections for spelling and syntax. Just…this type of vocab isn’t worth correcting (in my mind anyway).
It’s called “preincarnation.”
I remember reading a story in my Spanish lit class about a guy who wasn’t attending church, and his mother was freaking out, so the family priest went to talk to him. And the priest was like, “I totally get it. After all the evil I’ve seen I don’t really believe either. But I continue in this because it is my life, and I can provide comfort to people. Consider attending because you love your mother and it will help her.”
I think this image needs a bit more compression.
I have a beautiful unicorn pin with a magnet back on my fridge that says “Homeopathic means pretend” from the podcast Sawbones. It makes me smile.
I’ve read the Broken Earth trilogy. Geothermal power will lead to fifth seasons, just you wait.
Ubisoft is the CBS of the game industry.
Is that true? PC, Xbox, or both?
Also Hello Internet (RIP).
Seriously, I still think about the stack soap song.
Modern money zone isn’t nearly as good, but I still don’t skip it.
Potato is a tuber.
Vegetable is a culinary classification, not a botanical one.
I wouldn’t recommend you listen to the Dollop episode though, they tend to mercilessly mock their subjects.
