Ren and Stimpy makes me so uncomfortable after learning that John K. was a groomer pedo. Made all that much worse by him hiring his victim ("intern"), and recording BtS commentary while seated next to her. I was so disgusted by how many times I watched the cartoons and interviews, only to realize in retrospect that what looked like a young animator who was shy while speaking camera was actually a victim being pressured into praising her abuser in front of an audience.
Supposedly, he wasn't a perpetrator of sexual misconduct at that time, even though accounts from that time sure look like he was. Then again, even if he were victimizing minors, so was anyone who held any power at Nickelodeon at the time. So, firing him for anything other than deadlines would have caused an explosion of blowback.
The Soviets during WWII called Spam "second front" because they were a little tetchy about having to fight Hitler mostly by themselves for most of their part of the war.
I 100% guarantee that some stoner has smoked out of a block of spam. I have no idea who that person would be, but I promise that they exist and have done it.
Everyone gets all judgy until they get rubbed off with warm SPAM, then suddenly it's all "dark corners of the Internet" and raised pulse in the canned meat isle.
Are those bottom shelf? Top shelf? I've never heard of any of them 🤷
Granted, I'm far from an expert, but by "recognized brand", I meant "brand so well-known that people who know as little or even less than me know of it"
Like your Smirnoffs, your Jack Daniels, your José Cuervos etc etc.
The kind of shit people who don't know what to ask for ask for 😉
If he was going to commit crimes against humanity anyways, why not just use the fucking empty can of spam sitting right there (and chase it with a bite of spam)?

It is said that “Spam” is short for “spiced ham.”
This photo also includes spiced rum.
The photographer is having Spam and Spum.

...oh. i had heard he was "controversial" but uh not to that extent.

The sad thing is what destroyed his career was more his inability to meet deadlines than any form of sexual misconduct.

Common misconception. Spam is actually short for "is this SuPposed to be hAM?"

This person packed captain Morgan’s to drink neat, and spam.
I do not want to go camping with this gastronomist.

They could just drink from the bottle, yes. But, then they wouldn't have the inspiration of the spam cup for afterwards.

I thought the first worst reason for carving a hole in Spam was to make a weed pipe, but then I realized what OP probably actually meant.

I've used potatoes and apples personally. Never used Spam because it never occurred to me to do so.

captainlezbian@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 207d
All we know is that they're definitely Appalachian or Hawaiian
AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 207d
More likely they made a pipe out of the can. I have certainly smoked weed out of a contadina tomato paste can that we emptied first.

Yeah, General Reginald Longbottom's Genuine Navy Rum is FOUL!
Recruit Rum on the other hand..

You know it's bad because Navies have Admirals
Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 3 pts · 207d
That's actually the reason for MOST bad things!
Before someone decided that there should be admirals, things were mostly fine everywhere 🤷

Poopdeck Rum is the best.

I think simply being a recognized brand automatically qualifies it as middle shelf, but I might be wrong 🤷

They come in plastic bottles, count yourself lucky you haven't heard of them lol, but they're all very well known and far below "middle shelf."

"Spiced Rum"
Swill you would never touch if its actual taste wasn't covered by additives.

It's gotta be like the 3rd shelf from the bottom because Caribba exists... And there's shit worse than Caribba.
