It seems I cannot watch TV for very long these days without hearing "game changer". Not only is the term overused it is being used incorrectly. If they want to see a game changer, they need to go putt putting with me. At least once a game my ball ends up close to the cup. Then I get down on my knees, turn my club into a cue stick and I shoot the ball into the hole pool style. Now THAT is a game changer. LOL, that's awesome! I've never gone regular golfing in my life but I kick ass at Putt Putt!

"Boneless" Wings
Wendy's is offering their chicken nuggets with wing sauce. First, I give them credit for coming out and saying what we all know. Boneless wings are just nuggets. No one takes the bones out of wings. It is compressed chicken like all nuggets. (side note: Nuggets and not nuggies. No adult should say nuggies unless speaking with a child. Even then it is 50/50) I got some of them in buffalo sauce and in parmesan garlic sauce. They were nothing special. I may never get them again. Their nuggets like all nuggets do not really appeal to me. McDonalds are ok. The one thing Wendy's has going for them is if I get their buffalo nuggets, I can get the best fries in the business to go with them. Checkers has actual buffalo wings, but I am not a fan of their fries.
Popeyes has a commercial and some guy who is famous I guess but I did not recognize talks about how he hates boneless wings and Popeyes had him try theirs. He goes "this changes everything". No, it doesn't. You may like one places boneless wings, but it does not mean you are going to like all boneless wings. You still hate the others. Just changes that you do not hate ALL of them. Man, the overhype of things is rampant these days.

I saw Twisters this afternoon.
I thought Twisters (technically a sequel to Twister although it does not mention the events of the first movie) was good. The special effects were great and Glen Powell especially did a good job of acting. In addition to the numerous twisters in the movie there is also a major storyline twist (but one that IMO is very easy to see coming.)

Storyline twist? Are two of the tornadoes in love? Is one of the tornadoes the offspring of Bill Paxton's character from the first Twister?

The drive-in theater I go to is being tricky but smart to maximize their revenue. They show double features but this week one screen is showing Deadpool and Friend (I actually like that original title) back to back. They know most people who see it the first time will leave so they can sell tickets to people wanting to catch the second showing.
By the way, if Dogpool does not win some movie award in the next year we need to burn down Hollywood. That dog is do damn adorable. #PeggyForOscar

WARNING, WARNING: RANT UPCOMING!!!!!! YOU'VE BEEN WARNED: Ok, I'm getting REALLY sick and tired of these new Tampax commercials with Amy Schumer! They're EVERYWHERE: Every single TV commercial break plus they keep constantly interrupting EVERY SINGLE YOUTUBE VIDEO I WATCH!!!!!! Here's one of them so you can understand my misery. I feel really bad for the guy in this commercial; Amy interrupts the movie he's watching, gives away the ending of it and ruins his drink. m.youtube.com/watch?v=6rmF0Zm7f94Tampax: If I buy a box of your tampons will you stop tormenting me with your annoying advertisements? I'll do it if the answer is yes.
