The other 2 sides of the "box" are regular wall and probably/definitely not reinforced, so a shooter could just shoot through the walls or use explosives.

Reply to comment by DaveOJ12 in TIL the legendary story about a janitor who came up with Flamin' Hot Cheetos was a lie. by Station_Emotional
Apparently. It's similar to how the Egg McMuffin was invented. A Tex Mex restaurant in Frontierland added them to the menu after someone suggested they fry and season the leftover tortillas instead of throwing them out. Fritos didn't find out about them until a few years later, and then they started mass producing them when they realized how popular they were
At least that's the story, I'm not a Frito Lay historian

They're making a movie about this guy like it's an original story, but the Doritos thing happened in the 60s and is a well known true story. Has there been an inspirational movie made about the discovery of Doritos?

It's weird to me because it's almost the story of how Doritos were invented (a guy working at Frontierland in Disneyland made them from day old tortillas)

Reply to comment by Malessar in How Much Is Too Much Marvel and ‘Star Wars’? Disney Rethinks Franchise Output by verissimoallan
I bought the visual dictionary for Rise of Skywalker bc I thought it would be funny to have the visual dictionary for the worst movie of the franchise... The book doesn't mention Palpatine at all. Makes no attempt to explain any of it. The Amazon reviews are all complaining about it too. It made it even more funny to me

He consistently showed in interviews he has no idea why people actually like the Disney parks. He said 99% people come to the parks for the great cast members (who they underpay and treat like garbage) based on letters he received from guests. So he took that and ran with it and cut everything from the parks people enjoyed and then put the onus on the staff to keep people happy in the parks

Probably a joke related to Universal Studios building their new Nintendo land theme park which will have a Donkey Kong minecart ride, which if you've played the games you'll know that's directly related to how the minecart levels are played (you "jump" your minecart across missing bits of track)

Literally every legal expert commenting on this says otherwise. You don't get deals like this until you're in the end game of an investigation and the investigators know what you know already. They don't offer immunity to find out what you're hiding, they offer immunity because they already know what you did and want the higher ups
The whole team of investigators working on this have specialties in dealing with the mob. They were hired specifically to flip people loyal to a crime boss. I think they know what they're doing

I don't think you know how immunity works. He has to testify or he can get 5 years in jail. If he refuses to answer, he violates the agreement and he gets jail. I don't think he would take this deal if he was prepared to go to jail for the orange menace. I'll trust the DOJ on this one

Reply to LPT: if you’re trick or treating with a child with food allergies, bring your own candy! by 99badwolfbaloons
This year my bf and I bought a lot of little party favors and toys to give out to kids along with candy. Wal Mart had a bunch of party favors for cheap (plastic witch fingers, spider rings, stretchy skeletons, etc) and we also bought 100 glow sticks on Amazon. Kids love glow sticks and it makes them easier to see when they walk the neighborhood
My favorite thing we got to hand out this year is Pokemon Halloween BOOster Packs. They're little individual mystery packs of Pokemon cards with a Halloween theme
It's fun to get creative with it

Reply to comment by MaievSekashi in New trans-exclusionary "Lesbian Project" accidentally uses trans couple’s image by SqueakSquawk4
Not to be an asshole, but I don't really see trans people talk about issues affecting women or feminism, or show up to rallies for women's rights like abortion. Not saying they don't, but I don't really see it. They usually care about trans rights, because that's what they identify as, if I understand correctly. Roe vs Wade was overturned not even a year ago. Girls are being banned from talking about periods in school. Women's rights aren't "solved," cis women are actively under attack. I don't see the harm in women focusing on women's issues that are still under attack.
