I can’t possibly fathom why a bunch of people all over would all have the same weird, seemingly useless object on them at roughly the same time period. It’s an impossible mystery.

my favorites from Texas:
Buda -> “byou-duh” (byou as in beautiful) but NEVER “BooDah”. Occasionally you’ll hear “buttah”, but I’m sure those people are trolling
Bourne: Bernie
Bexar: Bear (Should be beHar, as in Harm, just like Texas is actually TeJas like the Ha in Hans.
D’Hanis: DaHennies, like “da pennies”
Weirdly most of the German places names are pronounced correctly, probably because they were founded by Germans who produced their names correctly for long enough that it stuck.
- Comment on ‘King of the Hill’ Revival First Details: Hank and Peggy Are Retired, Bobby’s a Dallas Chef, Dale Was Briefly Arlen’s Mayor and More 1 day ago:
Tons of Texas in-jokes too. One of the main characters was named Luanne Platter, which is the name of the dinner special at a restaurant called Luby’s in Texas (The LuAnn Platter). There’s still a few around, but they were a lot more prevalent back then.
Hank Hill’s job as a propane salesman is also kind of a joke. Cooking a brisket on propane, for example, is a sin. There’s even episodes where the family sneaks around his back to eat charcoal grilled burgers.

But it’s borderline and every doctor feels the junkyard pastiche of coping mechanisms you’ve developed over the years is good enough (it’s not) and the refuse to prescribe medication to help you
- Comment on Aggressive negotiations 1 week ago:
Almost. He’d break the glass and steal all the Cheetos with no warning, and then declare that Cheeto theft is through the roof. Then he’d demand that Mr Cheeto needs to make it right by selling Cheetos at a 80% discount. Then Mr. Cheeto will donate a mill dollars to his campaign and he’ll wander off in search of his next victim.
Since the vending machine was trashed they just removed it without replacing it.

exactly. The number of times I’ve had my buds but not my phone is embarrassing.
- Comment on The Circle of iLife 5 weeks ago:
I was mostly intrigued with the idea of having the wireless bud case be the music player, which would mean carrying the headphones in their case would be the only thing I need to carry if I want music.
