JustinCharge 2,136 Posted February 27, 2022 https://listverse.com/2022/01/29/10-surprising-and-amusing-eponyms/ NACHOS Nacho is a common nickname, short for Ignacio. The story goes that this dish was created by a maitre d’ named Ignacio Anaya Garcia. Working in a popular restaurant in Piedras Negras, across the border from a military base in Eagle Pass, Texas, he was on shift when a group of American military wives stopped by. Unfortunately, the chef was out, and Ignacio, not wanting the women to go hungry, went into the kitchen himself to make something out of the ingredients he could find. He grabbed totopos (fried corn tortilla chips), Colby cheese, and sliced jalapeños and stuck them in the oven. The women loved it and referred to it as Nacho’s special. Nacho himself eventually moved to Eagle Pass and opened a restaurant called “Nacho’s,” and Pedras Negras celebrated itself as the birthplace of the dish. The town now celebrates a yearly “Nacho Day.” Nachos became widespread after their introduction at baseball stadiums by Frank Liberto. By this point, the dish was famous in restaurants across the state. Liberto began selling them at his stadium in Arlington, Texas, with one important adjustment. He created a longer shelf life by inventing a cheese that “could survive a nuclear blast” as a topping rather than regular cheese. This dish became a U.S. staple at ball games and beyond. Unfortunately, the connection to Ignacio and his hometown became somewhat forgotten.[4] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

At the top of the hill was a commercial area with a bunch of businesses. One of the businesses in there was a wholesale cheese distributor. The business owner made some side money by selling cheese out of the back door to people who really like cheese. One day another guy, big cheese lover this guy, was buying a whole giant wheel of cheese from the place. He got the wheel of cheese over to his car but as he was wrestling to get it into his car he stumbled and fell and the wheel of cheese starting rolling down the hill. The man ran after it but it picked up momentum and rolled away from him faster than he could run. The wheel of cheese rolled all the way down the hill and into the guy who owned the home at the bottom of the hill's front yard. The home owner looked over the big wheel of cheese and called out to his wife to come look at their good fortune. The man said: "Hey honey - look we have a big wheel of nacho cheese". The wife looked at it for a few seconds and then said: "How do you know it's nacho cheese?" The man replied: "Because there was a guy running down the hill pointing at it and yelling 'that's nacho cheese!'" (.... the joke works better if you pronounce "nacho" as "not yo" . . .)

wiffleball 4,380 Posted February 27, 2022 The only time I tolerate horrible cheese and nachos is at a ball park. And I think it's because of the pickled jalapenos. I want real shredded cheese that melts in the oven. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JustinCharge 2,136 Posted February 28, 2022 Belarus set to enter the war on the side of Russia and warns of global thermonuclear war. https://www.yahoo.com/news/belarus-issues-dire-world-war-100029602.html The Putin-backed president of Belarus has warned that World War III could be about to begin as he reportedly prepares his troops to assist with Russia’s mass-scale invasion of Ukraine. President Alexander Lukashenko warned that the crisis in Ukraine could spark a global conflict, writing in a statement: “Russia is being pushed towards a third world war. We should be very reserved and steer clear of it. Because nuclear war is the end of everything.” 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JustinCharge 2,136 Posted February 28, 2022 16 minutes ago, vomit said: Exactly, it's focking stoopid to stand up to evil and tyranny, we should just let Russia do whatever they want. game theory says that one side can control 90% but the side that controls 10% is the one actually in control. This is because the side with the 10% doesn't have much to lose. We see this in politics for example, as the poor have nothing to lose so they are more likely to march, protest and riot and get what they want in a republic. Or when a developer wants to put up a skyscraper and some poor person living with a shack on the property refuses to sell except for millions and millions. Russia has little to lose so game theory says they will be super aggressive and push the game board to destruction to get what they want. Game theory says applying sanctions and indirect attacks on Russia is most likely to cause nuclear war because you are further pushing them into that corner where they have nothing to lose. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
