Chiefs fans were so sad after playoff loss they left their grills in the parking lot
Arrowhead Stadium became a hellscape.

Imagine feeling so defeated by a football game you’ll do anything to get out of the stadium as fast as you can.

That’s how some Chiefs fans felt after Sunday’s loss to the Steelers in the Divisional round of the playoffs....

Could be. Sounds like the Occupy movement. Black Grills Matter!

All things considered, the price of a Weber grill is peanuts compared to what the owner of the grill had to fork over for playoff tix.  Not sure I'd take it myself, even if my team won.  I'd never take a non-disposable grill to a tailgater, anyway.  It's silly.

Sorry, I'm to redneck to even be close to comprehending "disposable grill".  :laugh:

I guess I'm really "out there."  I decline to classify a Weber as a "grill."  It's a "Briquet Bucket."

That's when you pick up the grate and fill in the hole after you are done grilling, I reckon.

A couple of kids with a pickup could have backyard parties all summer just driving the lot and picking those up...

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Fun fact: Skittles contain gelatin, which is made from cow carcasses.

Keep that in mind when you read this story:

I was thinking more along the lines of "Mad Cow Disease."  This is how it spreads.   **nononono*

No.  Burning doesn't kill it.  It's not a life form as you and I know it.

The way the are processed. I'm reading that the rules are stringent now so there may be no difference. But they were feeding contaminated bone meal to cows. The two studies I just scanned were done in the late 90's. And I read an article on recalled candy for fear it was contaminated with BSE-infected gelatin. The Germans said the gelatin was certified clean. The two studies said there wasn't enough evidence to prove the way gelatin was processed would disinfect it. They also said most processors won't take any spines, brains, or ocular parts.

Hope that helps.

It doesn't.  I'm now convinced that if I eat Skittles my unit is going to turn black and fall off, right before my brain turns into cheese.

This is how quack rumors start.

I wouldn't be much worried about the eating of Skittles, but more worried about eating the cows that are eating Skittles. Which may be more cows than you know. Besides, gelatin is in so many products. Maybe you should be more worried about bad leg makeup...

Since we are on the subject, I wonder what is in trump's tan?  Just what is soaking into his brain?

When we were in chem lab, one of the (clumsier) students ended up wearing a little nitric acid. That'll turn you orange in light doses. If it's strong, that's a different story. Tannic Acid will do the same thing, without as much corrosion.
