Aioli is "garlic and oil" by translation. By definition aioli is a spread made from oil emulsified with garlic, which mixing garlic into mayonnaise does not achieve. That said, the colloquial use of aioli to refer to just about any thick smooth spread is well on its way to changing that. Pedants like me can fight it all we want, but languages evolve. It's just what they do.

There's a fair possibility that lots of "mostly republican" districts are relying on voter apathy to stay mostly republican. Good on ya for doing your part!

Great movie all around but that scene really stuck with me. The world may come to a fiery end, but they'll be damned if they let that stop them from being good to each other.

I too vomit while standing up at my full height.

I think of it as being (sorta) similar to spraying and wiping down a dirty countertop. The spray alone isn't going to get it fully clean, but it makes the wipe about a thousand times more effective at finishing the job.

Soak a kitchen towel, wring it out, and line the bottom of the crisper with it. Feel it every once in a while to make sure it's still damp. That'll let your crisper be what it was designed to be: a little high-humidity box in an otherwise arid refrigerator.

Also, take note of how produce is stored at the grocery store. If the store doesn't refrigerate something (apples, tomatoes, avocados to name a couple), odds are you shouldn't either. The fruits and veggies that belong in the crisper are the ones that are periodically misted with water in the case at the store. Also probably don't keep anything tightly wrapped in plastic.

It takes every path available, and with high enough voltage, more paths become available

Don't remember where I heard it first, but I always love to hear it.
