“Wu-Tang In Space Eating Impossible Sliders” Is A Real Thing

“The RZA, the GZA, and Ghostface Killah walk into a spaceship full of vegan sliders” sounds like the start of a joke. And I guess it is. But it’s also the premise of a new four-part video series to promote White Castle’s new vegan “Impossible Sliders.” It's real and it’s fantastic.



“It’s kinda crazy on Earf right now, so we came to space to acquire some knowledge and gain some perspective.” That’s some true and deep shit.

Somebody was showing their man bush at Busch Gardens!

WILLIAMSBURG, Va. – Police in Virginia say they arrested an intoxicated 21-year-old who was running around a theme park parking lot naked, trying to enter vehicles.

James City County deputy police chief Steve Rubino tells the Daily Press bystanders at Busch Gardens corralled the man until an officer arrived Friday night.

He says the man fought the officer and bystanders and attempted to run away. Rubino says the officer used a stun gun on the man, who was taken to a hospital because he was intoxicated by alcohol and illegal narcotics.

The man, who wasn’t immediately identified, has five arrest warrants pending, including a charge of felony assault on a law enforcement officer.

Rubino says the man is a member of the Navy and is stationed in Norfolk.

I guess no one likes White Castle.

I chill at White Castle 'cause it's the best
But I'm fly at Fat Burger when I'm way out west

We got determination, bass and highs
White Castle fries only come in one size

Whitney said...

And I can always make them smile
From White Castle to the Nile

T.J. said...

Because being bad news is what we're all about
We went to White Castle and we got thrown out

Whitney said...

Down with Mike D and it ain't no hassle
Got the ladies of the eighties from here to White Castle

So the gist of that article is that protection of the minority interest is sacrosanct until you don’t agree with the minority? Color me unswayed.

When the majority is so fractured by a lack fundamental principles so as to allow a cohesive, disciplined (albeit douchey) minority to take control, is it really a majority? As Ty Webb taught us, a flute with no holes is not a flute.

When Democrats can’t manage to win states where they have a registration advantage (Trump won FL, KY, LA, NC, PA, & WV) I have a hard time buying that this tyranny of the minority lament.

Marls said...

Merman asks to be controlled by dial up Internet so that may explain his trash technique.

I love White Castle. I have not tried the vegan sliders but the ranch chicken rings are phat, unlike me who is just fat.

Marls said...

“ Seems” not “asks”

zman said...

Respectfully Marls, that's not how I read the article or see the issue. One-holed flutes notwithstanding. And I don't know Ty Webb, is he Davis Webb's father?

Whitney said...

He was kicked out for night putting. Putting at night.

Whitney said...

Now that I think of it, I believe that was his roommate Mitch Cumstein.

Marls said...

Z - I may have protested too much and I agree that the system has been misused by Republicans. I just think that the Democratic Party can’t manage to get out of their own way and have basically ceded power to a super cohesive minority. That’s not necessarily tyranny of the minority but a weakness and stupidity by the majority.

zman said...

My concern isn’t so much misuse as inequity. A guy who most people didn’t vote for, who won by a combined 78k votes in MI WI and PA, who may or may not have won those votes through Russian interference, and who may or may not be an unidicted coconspirator in federal election fraud just put two people on the Supreme Court, one of whom may or may not be a sexual assaulter and who only garnered 51 Senate votes for the position, and most of those votes came from states with low populations. Some point soon this is going to reach a head.

RIP Paul Allen.

that wu tang commercial about white castle is surprisingly deep and philosophical.

nicks! i miss doing the spider at center court and then tossing up a forty-five foot hook shot in front of a capacity crowd at the rec center. now i get excited when some dudes successfully install a washer/dryer.

Paul Harvey > Paul Allen

Marls said...

Z - I hate Trump as much as the next sane person. I just think the “resistance” needs to find a way to put up a candidate who won’t lose states where they have a majority of registered voters. This idea that you can’t be an acceptable candidate unless you check every liberal box is how we ended up with this Cheeto colored, mouthbreating moron in the White House.

Be better, focus on local politics, take back state legislatures, elect governors, use that power to ungerrymander dstricts, block voter suppression, pass state laws that protect civil liberties and the environment.

Shlara said...

OK, so I'm trying to not comment on current events here on GTB, because I don't want to say something I regret
The issue, Marls, is not the total number of voters being organized or cohesive enough to exercise their power.
The issue is WHERE they are located.
And the issue has been compounded by partisan gerrymandering over the last several decades.
The Dems failure here is losing control, or even a healthy balance, of legislative bodies at the state level, where the gerrymandering happens.

Don’t forget Merrick Garland.

Steve Harvey > Paul Harvey.

Too much seriousness!

I just found out that my Ohio trip next week is confirmed. I get to go to Cincy, Columbus AND Clevetown over two days. And to make it better, Detroit got tagged on as a third day.

That’s a whole lotta sadness to absorb.

TR said...

Jason Witten’s makeup artist should be fired.

Whitney said...

“Too much seriousness” has a much preferred, far superior phrasing around GTB.

Speaking of the Nicks, someday I will digitize that 8mm video of the Nicks halftime shootaround when we went 0 for 37.

rob said...

shlara is right, and marls is right. the gop has done the hard work of organizing at the local level much better than dems, aided by the decline of traditional dem stalwarts like unions. and the dem purity test means that candidates lose votes to poorly conceived protests, political noses cut off to spite all our faces. phil bredesen is going to lose a winnable senate race in tennessee because he supported kavanaugh. i don't agree with that decision, but bredesen was a progressive governor with a record of competent leadership, and lefties are going to 'punish' him in the name of liberal purity. we get the government we deserve.

CJ Beathard is a player. It’s coming against a dumpster fire of a defense, but he has touch on a long ball, can hit intermediate throws, and can scramble. He’s better than 8-10 starters out there.
