    Nope.  I'd never mutilate a book like that.

    I should sincerely hope the "nay" vote on human trafficking would be unanimous, at least among the people on HH

    If not I'm going to take serious issue

    When I was a kid, I thought "human trafficking" was traffic involving vehicles transporting people, as opposed to "cargo trafficking" or "animal trafficking".

    But, in any case, I still would have voted nay.
  • Touch the cow. Do it now.

    I think it takes everyone a bit of time to figure out that these words have secondary meanings that don't necessarily make much sense with their first meaning.

    Like, I was wondering what being placed in a franchise restaurant had to do with the right to vote.

    And I thought a Portuguese man-o'-war was a sailor from the Iberian peninsula.  (I knew it was also a jellyfish, but it turned out to me that "man-o'-war" actually refers to a ship, not a sailor, nor necessarily masculine.)

    And of course people involved were not happy about the Diet of Worms, but it wasn't about their food.

    It's probably a sweet pizza, not a savory one.

    Given Rick and Morty's origins it's kind of hilarious to see Dan Harmon complaining that McDonald's bringing back the Szechuan sauce was "unlicensed" and "without permission"

    did he actually? because... that makes no sense?

    that's ridiculous and unpleasant.
  • edited 2017-10-11 13:47:42
    I mean, they didn't just bring back the sauce, they were giving away posters with cartoon characters in a Rick and Morty-esque art style and stuff. I don't think it's a stretch to call it an unlicensed tie in. And I mostly got the impression that Harmon wouldn't have cared if it hadn't been such a disaster?

    Basically, everything about this scenario was stupid.
  • kill living beings
    okay, that's less ridiculous. but still pretty ridiculous given that it was a mcdonalds thing to begin with, and rick and morty has tons of parodies and bla bla bla

    szechuan gate is not my favorite

    Yeah that's the thing. McDonald's either drastically underestimated the demand, or deliberately created a shortage because they were already planning on bringing it back again in the winter. So while focusing on the "unlicensed" angle is a little weird, if I were involved with Rick and Morty I'd be pissed at McDonald's too.

    On the other hand some of Harmon's replies later in that thread were very out of line.
  • kill living beings
    yeah i'm not like... sympathetic to mcdonalds

    i think harmon is (apparently) an asshole. mcdonalds sucks generally and now too. people who drove for hours to get shitty sauce product are nuts. fuck it fuck it fuck iiiiit

    Real life is a lot like fiction sometimes, in that there are situations where nobody comes out looking good.

    Ironically (or perhaps not), this would make a hilarious episode of an adult-oriented cartoon.
  • kill living beings
    it would

    like, the episode premise is rick does whatever weird shit to get some of it, right? you could have the multiverse ricks all follow along and swarm stores dumbly so that rick can't get any himself

    that just raises further, more disconcerting questions

    Some pizza places sell dessert "pizzas". Are those not a thing across the pond?
  • My dreams exceed my real life
    Oh Dan Harmon's an impulsive prick

    And the worrying thing is he's the balancing, level-headed one on the Rick and Morty team

    That's basically the first bit of 'The Fried Chicken Flu' from Boondocks. Hell, some of the second and third bits too.

  • The only place I've seen dessert pizza on the menu is dairy queen, never an actual pizza place.
  • image Wee yea erra chs hymmnos mea.
    You have dessert pizzas, and yet barely any meat pies. What are you doing over there? :|
  • kill living beings
    i mean, pizzas are, fundamentally, pies

    and one might naively think pies are desserts

    but that's fuckin wrong

    It's a pizza crust but instead of sauce they put, like, cinnamon and frosting on it

    It's not the greatest thing, but when you're stuck in the shack at a yard gate for a 12-hour shift and Domino's delivers, why not?
  • image Wee yea erra chs hymmnos mea.
    Whenever someone says Dairy Queen, I end up thinking of Dairy Crest.
