Top Chef - London
Costco usually carries a sticky toffee pudding in a freezer aisle around Thanksgiving/Christmas and it is a sure fire sugar death/coma, but it is delicious.
Explosion/fire at Shell plant in Deer Park
This new learning amazes me. Tell me again how sheeps' bladders may be employed to put out refinery fires.

I missed on Bloodsport and Claw Viper.
Hats off to Madcatter. They underperformed during the season but it looks like they figured some things out for the tournament.
Top Chef - London
Tom the German appears to cook good food, but he seems like a very selfish asshole. Not a team player at all.
Explosion/fire at Shell plant in Deer Park
Last I heard, it sounded like they had the fire under control. Folks in Channelview probably wondering what dumbass is burning hot pads on their BBQ grill.
Explosion/fire at Shell plant in Deer Park
Smoke blowing to the north. Reports of two injured so far.

I went 6/8 on my bracket yesterday. It should have been 7/8. Bloodsport/Lockjaw result was a major fluke.

2021 - Is inflation finally back in the conversation?
The economic malaise of the Jimmy Carter years sucked ass. We are still enjoying today the fruits of shitty fiscal discipline and monetary policy many decades later. Huzzah for shitty system design.

Tournament starts tonight, but there isn't a fight card for tonight's show (that I saw anyway). My bracket is ready.

The graphic I saw had 3 teams at 2-2 and none of them deserved to be in the tournament imo. SOS was lopsided in many cases.

That's weird. Why would they sell customer contact info to a competitor?
You sure you didn't show interest in gold/silver/coins on Facebook, Twitter or some social media company that is known for selling customer info?

Same. I'm only going to use the spoiler for comments that might spoil unaired content. If it's already aired on TV, it's fair game to discuss.
Battlebots 2023
Do we need to spoiler fight talk after the episode airs?
Top Chef - London
That bell pepper dish looked amazing to me. i would have loved to taste it.
I didn't understand the avacado dish, but the judges seemed to like it.
