    I miss having a viable “3rd” option.

    The rise of the iPhone and Android was a wild time back in the early 2010s.

    Obama was forced to use a Blackberry while president and he hated it.

    “I get the thing, and they’re all like, ‘Well, Mr. President, for security reasons … it doesn’t take pictures, you can’t text, the phone doesn’t work, … you can’t play your music on it,’” Obama said during an appearance on The Tonight Show this week. “Basically, it’s like, does your three-year-old have one of those play phones?”

          Literally never heard of disco fries till now.

          Apparently been making disco fries whenever I’m out of curds and I can tell you from experience that, no it’s definitely not better than a proper poutine.

          Order a poutine with white truffle aioli if you can. So damn good.
