Super Meat Boy. This is the best video game I’ve played in some time. I was reluctant to play a game in which “meat boy” rescues “bandage girl” from “dr fetus”, but meat boy being made of meat is as incidental as Mario being a plumber. It’s really just excellent fun, and it only cost me $10. If you own an xbox, download this immediately. It’s coming out for the wii as well.
Sauerkraut as a pizza topping. This discovery was like the twist of a good spy thriller: after you’re made aware of it, everything makes perfect sense. Of course sauerkraut is a great pizza topping. I’m just bummed it took me this long to understand it was even a possibility. If you are still not sold: envision a pizza topped with sausage, sauerkraut, and lots of crush pepper flakes. Meanwhile, pizzas in my new city seem to be cut into a cross pattern, making squares and other rectangle-like shapes, rather than the diametrical manner that results in wedges. This leaves several slices crustless, and seems like a big mistake. It feels wrong to call them “slices”, although I understand that “slice” conveys nothing about shape. Still, a “slice” with sauerkraut but not crust may be better than a slice with crust but not sauerkraut.
This cover of R. Kelly’s I Wish by How To Dress Well that I discovered because of barthel. It led me to get both the How To Dress Well album and TP-2.com, two very welcome additions to the ipod.

I mean, I don’t doubt it, but surely sauerkraut as a leftover pizza topping would not work. Doesn’t it make the pizza too soggy, requiring it be consumed immediately? It’s like, you can’t save half a rueben for later, you know?

The cross hatch style of pizza slicing is called a party cut, and this post has me salivating for some meatball topped party cut Lincoln Ave. Pizza House right now. Only six hundred miles separate me and my craving.
