This one and Streetcar are truly my favorite “Easter eggs for English majors” episodes.

AI agrees that your car was already upside down when we got there and your grandma shouldn’t have mouthed off like that.

And we’d do what we could to lessen the tragedies.

Yes, I've come to discover that "Rust Belt cities slowly revitalizing themselves while staying a little gritty around the edges" are my travel sweet spot.

oh no, am I going to buy a Cubs shirt?

Most important call of the game: "Fred Hoiberg, still hot."

I blame everyone leaving their winter chains on and carrying too much weight.

Unfortunately he had to throw away "advanced baseball"

Reddit remains undefeated.

It was an early vaccine alternative.

We’re allotted one floating holiday at work, intended for personal religious observances, so I’m saving it up for The Day.

"Trumpy you can do stupid things!" (Though that's rarely out of context these days.)

But turns out a bottle is like $8 at the grocery store. So looking forward to some properly braised chicken and leeks this weekend!

There's a recipe we make a couple times a year that calls for a tablespoon of sherry. I've always used a sherry substitute because I assumed it was prohibitively expensive, based solely on the fact that they're always drinking sherry on Frasier.

Starting a business consulting service so I can be the one who gets paid to say “you should migrate all your documents [on/off] SharePoint” every three years.

Merry Christmas! Now off to work on my putting.

Thanks to NPR's excerpts from the Vatican's Christmas Mass, I now know what Latin sounds like with a Chicago accent.

Merry Christmas exclusively to the two guys on a ladder hanging lights at the drive through liquor store at 9 pm on Xmas Eve.

This bookstore has disorganized piles, literal cat fights, and one customer loudly demanding information about ham radios. Five stars.

Oh are you in Pittsburgh?

Haha, that lines up with the local lore I’ve learned from r/stlouis.

Window seating in St. Louis provides the perfect opportunity to work on my research into the correlation between parallel parking difficulties and temp tag expiredness.

We go to St. Louis for a week every December. I always have Dan make a list of places he wants to go, including his old favorites and any new finds that have caught his eye. This year he added 50 places, so I'm looking forward to eating seven meals a day.

As always, I am Ben to your Leslie on the subject of Griff.

I’ve seen most people share comically overestimated ages, so I was prepared to be called 300 years old for listening to Vivaldi.

Spotify thinks my listening age is 20 so don’t worry, everyone can ignore their terrible listening ages.

Okay, there is literally nothing about my sensibilities, tastes, or interactions with the world that reflects an age of 20. My only suspicion is that listening to recent recordings of Yuja Wang playing Rachmaninoff or Hillary Hahn playing Bach is being credited as a new release?
