that SNL Hammond-as-Trump Domino's bit - or as he calls it in the sketch, "Dominio's" - has really stayed me with in the nearly 19 (!) years since I saw it air in real time... I like James Austin Johnson's take on this particular era of Trump (maybe even more so when he was doing it on Twitter) but Hammond is, imo, the be-all, end-all of impersonators.

I ate at the Metrograph Commissary once in 2019 and that was enough.

Just got a coffee with an old friend last weekend, and the first thing he said to me was: “I’ve been watching The Apprentice.”

I watched maybe a season or two as a high schooler ... and one of the slightly later ones when Don Jr. and Ivanka were judges ... my main takeaway then and now is that "majoring in business" is not a real thing

how does mcdonald’s (Sub)stack up to other fast food burgers? my opinion is that it’s its own thing that’s not a burger so it’s incomparable to its FF peers

I basically agree with you. I’d also reach for it before Wendy’s, BK, etc.
