I'm eh on the dressers, but my grandma had a vanity like that. I kinda love it. Will have to see how seller responds

Oh, dag! I wish I'd known. We just sold one almost identical to that at our yard sale a couple weeks ago. I love it but don't have the right space for it.

I wanted to make the yard sale, but things have been crazy,

There's a upmarket fast-food (along the lines of Chipotle rather than Arby's) chain around these parts call PepperJax Grill that includes "American's Best Philly" on their signs. It's a lie.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

No lie, I've never heard of Cheese Whiz on a cheesesteak. I don't live in Philly, though, so maybe I've been sheltered.

I asked because I got a Philly for lunch today at an ancient local drive-in and contents of the sandwich included beef, melted cheese, a few flecks of onions and peppers, tomato, lettuce, and mayonnaise. Basically a Whopper on a really soggy bun that was falling apart. I thought it was an abomination, but then the bar & grill in Memphis where I took best friend for his birthday dinner had one on the menu with the same ingredients.

To me a Philly should be steak, cheese, grilled bell peppers, and onions if requested.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Other than tonic water for my G&Ts and the occasional seltzer, I have very little interest in soda water at all.

Me neither! But I thought La Croix was some kind of magical thing. It's fine.

In Philly, that would be called a cheesesteak hoagie. A steak with sub toppings on it.

Our wings are not tired.

La Croix is my favorite fizzy water, but any old fizzy water works for me. I love the stuff. I don't care for sweet drinks.

Correctly.

Steak, wiz, onions. Anything else is artisanal and not to be trusted.

Tomato, lettuce, and mayo on a "cheesesteak" isn't artisinal, it is an abomination!
