We’ve never claimed otherwise.
“We have a website out there called subwaytunafacts.com. It will take you through all the science. You can see every bit of the story there, and I think that will obviously put the facts out there and clarify all these misconceptions. […] People love our tuna. We’re very proud of our tuna, so I think that’s really the end of the story.” Subway CEO John Chidsey, CNN July 13, 2021
At Subway, we’re dedicated to providing our customers with fresh, affordable meal options every day. Our commitment is reflected by every facet of our operations —…

Clothing Boutique
We’re opening a store! Better keep all these freshly laundered clothes folded and stacked so they look nice and neat for your customer who is working on their laptop now but will come check out the inventory once this Zoom meeting is over!
Spaceport
Oh no, traffic is backed up at the Spaceport! Help all the flying saucers (plates) and other spacecraft (utensils) safely land in the docking bay (dishwasher)! Don’t let them crash, or it’ll come out of your Space Traffic Controller salary (allowance)!

It’s time for dad to distance himself from his favorite guitar god.
“Several months after Eric Clapton first began spreading coronavirus misinformation, which recently culminated in an anti-vaccination and anti-lockdown crusade, the musician admitted that his coterie of famous pals have begun to cut off communication with him. […] ‘I just don’t hear from them anymore. My phone doesn’t ring very often. I don’t get that many texts and emails anymore. It’s quite noticeable.’” — Vulture.com 6/18/21
Congratulations. By reading this guide you have already taken the biggest step forward toward having a talk with your father about Eric Clapton.
After decades of rock stardom, the wealthy guitarist has become an outspoken…
Don’t get up! We’ll bring you everything we need.
Happy Mother’s Day, mommy!
We love you so much! Thank you for everything you do. As a token of our appreciation, the whole family has brought you breakfast ingredients in bed!
Yes, we said ingredients. As in, we need you to cook them.
Okay, so Declan said he doesn’t like the way daddy makes pancakes. We’re not sure if they were cooked too long or not enough or if there’s some secret spice you put in that you could maybe whisper into daddy’s ear so he can try to recreate the voodoo that you do so well. But anyway, that…
We can’t allow an uneven number to erase a catchy, educational song.
As a patriotic, complication-averse American, I reject the idea of D.C. statehood solely on the grounds that it would effectively “cancel” the most educational tune in the American songbook.
Its opening refrain declares, and rightly so, “Fifty nifty United States, from thirteen original colonies…” This song — a catchy little earworm of a ditty — has, for generations, imparted upon American schoolchildren the imperative lesson of memorizing the name of every single state in alphabetical order. It’s too perfect, too inspired, dare I say even heaven-sent, that “fifty” rhymes with “nifty.”
We can’t turn our backs on such a pure…
It’s hard to tell…

If you’re experiencing any of these feelings, it could be because you’re horny or it could be because it’s ramps season — that short window of the year when those coveted wild leeks emerge in the woods and make a brief appearance at the grocery store. Honestly, it’s difficult to say…
- You’re bored with your usual crop of options and you want something wild.
- Your tolerance for kissing someone with garlicky breath is much lower than…
No masks. No gloves. But a whole lotta Justin.

We’re back!
As you all know from our unfairly suspended (censored!) Facebook page, it wasn’t our decision to shut down Biff’s Bar & Grille. Our wuss governor caved to the liberal media and the hoax virus, forcing us to close our dining room and limit our Freedoms to takeout and delivery.
But now that nearly 1% of the state’s population is genetically modified — oops, we mean “vaccinated” — and things…

I knew it wouldn’t be easy, but I wasn’t prepared for it to be so cruel.
All I want — all I’ve ever wanted since I was a budding bromeliad — is to be on a pizza.
But the minute a pineapple like me shows up, there are sneers on half of the faces in the crowd. They have no issue loudly decrying our presence in our presence, proudly declaring their bigotry, and shouting down those who disagree.
I’m sick…
Here’s what your realtor, home inspector, and the previous owners are all leaving out.
A house is likely the biggest purchase you’ll ever make, and yet every part of the process — from deciphering “realtorspeak” in listings to navigating home inspections to finally receiving a set of keys — has its own mysteries and pitfalls. Even when you do finally sign the title and start unpacking boxes, you may find some questions left obtusely unanswered. Here are six things they don’t tell you when you buy a house:
1. There are spiders in the basement
You were probably too enamored with the good bones and original craftsman-style molding to notice, or daydreaming about picking the perfect muted paint swatches for each…
Ted Cruz abandons his constituents. Gallant… yeah, wouldn’t.
Ted Cruz plans a vacation during a crisis.
Gallant finds ways to be helpful.
Ted Cruz books a flight to a Mexican resort town while his state is suffering power outages, water shortages, food scarcity, and freezing temperatures.
Gallant — oof! — definitely doesn’t do that.
Ted Cruz actually gets on the airplane, not thinking twice about the fact that it’s, at the very least, bad optics.
Gallant knows that would be political suicide.
Ted Cruz makes up an excuse about how he, like any good dad, is just chaperoning his family…
