The Random Thought Thread

My daughter just microwaved her leftover fettucine alfredo and bread sticks from Olive Garden. Oh, man. I don't think this house has ever had such a lovely aroma as it does right now, and I'm not a big fan of OG.

But, this aroma is so wonderfully penetrating like actually eating this myself. Probably, going to experience some "contact calories". Delightful.

WONDER WHAT THEY MIGHT THINK IF IT'S ALL IN BOLD?

Dave and Buster's is a racket, albeit one with tasty food and a bar.

I'm good at "maths" but can someone make sense of this blurb from TIME magazine?

Not trying to bring any virus or jab talk to this thread, just genuinely curious if anyone can help me out with my mental block, or is TIME gaslighting me?

Two questions...

1) Shouldn't 2/3rds of jabs be going to white people as they make up around that percentage of the population?

2) What happened to the other 24% or so of jabs if they didn't go to white, hispanics, or blacks as 10% or so went to hispanic and blacks, and around 66% went to whites. 66+10= 76... Who makes up the other 24%?

JAT. Native Americans, Pacific Islanders, Territories, Unspecified (optional), Foreign nationals, etc....

Thank you, Dan...I can see how this is possible, now. I neglected to realize that although those groups don't make up anywhere near 24% of the total population, it is possible that much higher percentages of those in those groups received jabs over hispanics and blacks. My wife's childhood buddy is native american...she was jabbed awhile ago and is of lower priority due to her age.

Any thought on the other? That is right around the proportion of whites should be getting jabbed. Maybe, a little low. The way it is written it's as if whites, AGAIN!, are benefitting from their "white privilege". Perhaps, nice to see other groups that are even more marginalized than hispanics and blacks are getting the jabs in greater proportion but no focus on that. Perhaps, just written to show only the equation that white> proportion than hispanic and black.

Was out at the store this evening and was looking for a box of my favorite granola but couldn't find it. Instead, I decided to give this a whirl. Never seen it before. Did see Steve's Grape Nuts...only 2 boxes left on the shelf. Smiled just thinking about how someone other than him likes that stuff. That hole should be filled with boxes from 10 years ago. Maybe, he was the one buying in my Wal-mart.

Been a huge cereal fan for most of my life. This one is literally one of the best ones I've ever eaten. Gonna be VERY hard to keep it to the 2/3 cup per serving like I do with granola. It's that good.

This stuff is way better than any trail mix I've ever tried, and this stuff with some almond "milk". Whoo. Awesome. Can't wait to try their other flavors. This stuff is candy.

Toulon This stuff is candy.

It just might be. What does the ingredient label say ?

Eguller In code but loosely translated it says ""Not Grape Nuts" . A random thought, is 22.3 oz too much?

Just goodness, bay bay!

Man, this stuff tastes like crap.

I thought it got its taste due to the ingredients. 😂

Same as granola. 270 calories per serving. Just limit to 2/3 a cup, throw in your favorite fruits and all part of a healthy diet that stays right around 1k calories a day. I don't each much anymore. Just little hits a couple times a day.
