I wasn't overly impressed with Maple & Ash, however one of the better steaks I've ever had was at Gibson's in Chicago. Probably ten years ago, still remember it fondly.
I've never been to Gibson's (I'm not really a steakhouse guy) but it was the preferred spot for one of our NYC based clients every time he came to town.

Plenty of other fantastic food in Chicago, I just rarely felt compelled to pay someone to cook me a steak.

This is why no one can take Louisiana seriously.

Air Heads are nearly as bad as circus peanuts.

I saw this, it's making the rounds on a Marine message board I occasionally view. I usually DGAF but f*ck that guy.

What I don't understand is how on earth he got away with it for so long? I saw one of his bios from when he was a Staff Sergeant (so probably at least 12 or 15 years ago) and he already had a massive rack, complete with his fake Purple Hearts, way back then. He was Motor T and, from what I've read, was never even in any units that did much of anything.

When I worked in Admin, if some MoT Staff Sergeant, or even a Gunny or 1stSgt checked in with fruit salad like that, we would have been all over his SRB and researching his prior units to verify... and because we were nosy. A lot of the times when a new Marine would be checking into the unit, we'd also go over their awards and everything just to make sure their uniforms were squared away before the inevitably went in front of the SgtMaj on that first day. I wouldn't be surprised if some enterprising young clerk somewhere did look into it long ago and brought it up to their AdminO and then the AdminO just dropped the ball.
Lol, he also had a fake doctoral degree from Liberty University, so likely a ThD. Man's really walking around the motor pool pretending to be an avenging angel.

I’ve lived in the Carolinas. Can confirm those are sh1t states too.
I like Milk Duds, but I'm not gonna put any effort into defending them. That said, as an NC native, you clearly ingested too many chemicals while you were at Lejune if you think the entire state is sh!t. South Carolina, with the possible exception of Charleston, is straight trash, though.
And Hot Tamales are as bad as packing peanuts
And you can f*ck right off, too, you uncultured philistine.

Do the chemicals at Lejune matter when his diet consisted of crayons for years?

Your accusation is true, but he's right about this.

I like Milk Duds,

At least we started on common ground.

I was introduced to Nerds Gummy Clusters this evening. Pretty good, but the name sounds like it could be on the bowling shirts of @Texasmade & Co Waffle House gang.

Red Hots also suck. One state's favorite is Tootsie pops? Seriously wtf.

My son was giving the "Just one more candy bar!" line just before bedtime. Then he bit into a Tootsie Roll, and said, "This one doesn't count, it's all dried out."
