    *** Cyclone Fanatic Cereal Tournament: Sweet Sixteen ***

    Interestingly, a spoiled batch is also the reason Hershey's chocolate tastes the way it does, complete with naturally occurring butyric acid (aka barf flavor).

    Yes! That was my go-to combo in food service, too!

    ****, Marry, Kill

    I'll have to differ with you on the idea that Coldplay was a short-term trend. 25 years, 100 million+ albums sold, lots of awards (mostly British?), and the list of accomplishments is much longer. That said: F: Coldplay M: DMB K: U2

    Thank you for using "fewer". :)

    Beau is Afraid trailer

    It's a story about crippling anxiety. Essentially the worst thing that Beau could imagine would happen in any given scenario ended up happening. I can't say I enjoyed the movie. It's certainly not as good as Aster's previous releases (Hereditary and Midsommar).

    ***2024 Masters Thread***

    The player who wins is the one who executes the required shots the best, hitting the spots that put them in the best position to score low. I think that's the beauty of Augusta. There are very specific spots that all players are trying to hit because it sets them up well for the next shot. Few...

    ***2024 Masters Thread***

    I don't agree. It's not like the course plays easy. Fewer than 10 players were under par for the tournament, and -11 is very good but not crazy good. Other than Scheffler, there was a lot of movement in the final round. But that will happen in any tournament with a player in the lead hitting...

    2024 solar eclipse

    Are you referring to the solar prominence (some are calling it a solar flare, thought it's not)? Bailey's Beads typically are the last thing before (the small bright beads of real sunlight shining through valleys on the moon) and the first thing after totality.

    Not just "blown away". Changed.

    2024 solar eclipse

    I mean...that's fine. But if you've never experienced one, then you just don't know. It's nearly impossible to put into words what it feels like to witness the sun, the source of life on this planet, become a completely different thing for a few minutes.

    2024 solar eclipse

    I don't have any tips, but I'd expect it to be an absolute madhouse. I was in the middle of nowhere, WY in 2017, and it took three hours to drive the 34 miles from Jay Em to Torrington afterwards due to the amount of traffic heading back south into Colorado. I swear the state of Colorado must...

    2024 solar eclipse

    We had almost the same itinerary except about 20 miles apart. My friend and I drove through Lusk just before sunrise and got to Jay Em as the sun was coming up. This was our spot for the day.

    5-1 in the Final Four, 5-0 in the Championship game. Crazy.

    Has UConn ever lost a Final Four game? I can't think of one.

    Since it’s so random, having one bad year in the last 5 tournaments sounds about right.

    So…one each from the B1G, SEC, ACC, and BE. I guess that’s okay. Would have preferred a BigXII team in there, though.
