Same

I also hate Georgetown Cupcakes

Georgetown cupcakes are 100% a tourist thing at this point. Everybody local knows they are the worst cupcakes in the area.

Did they steal a crappy recipe from Magnolia Bakery in NYC? Mediocre "Sex and the City" tie-in red velvet 🧁 🧁 🧁.

I love the history and even the chili itself, but I hate half smokes. Not just Ben’s but all of them. Which is weird because I love a good hot dog.

I would have to wear a scarlet H.

I bought some Ben’s Chili Bowl half smokes from Costco a couple of months ago. One of them had some bone in it that cracked my tooth. I have just had a crown fitted as a result. So I too now hate Ben’s Chili Bowl half-smokes.

A local variety of smoked pork and beef sausage usually grilled and eaten on a hot dog bun.

Like a cross between a hot dog and a kielbasa? Gross

No, not like that. Are you midwestern ?

No, I’m from here. Are you midwestern?

No, I’m from here. Why would you think anything is like a kielbasa?

It kind of is like a cross of those two things. Like a more intense hotdog.

Well over half the women in the USA are overweight and a significant percentage are morbidly obese.

DC is no exception; you just have to get out of N.W. and visit the other 3 quarters.

Scarlet F for you.

That’s probably the biggest sin on DCUM if you are a woman.

Scarlet B (bodyshamer) for you.

It would be a sin to sneer at calling it the DMV.

You must be a transplant.

4th generation from DC and I don’t call it the DMV and get annoyed at those who do.

+1000

No greater sign of someone being a transplant than calling the region "DMV."

How do you explain all of the people who aren’t transplants that have used it for decades?

I’ve never heard a non transplant use that term unless it’s someone under the age of 25.

Way to tell on yourself that you have zero black friends.

I think Ben's chili is just awful.

DP: No travel sports or interest therein. I like my sleep and free time. People who do them are mindless zombies who can't think for themselves.

And most of the kids don’t play sports at college.
