Same. I’d probably avoid names that rhyme, but we picked names that meant something to us, and the odds are pretty good with twins there’d have been some relationship between the names. Both relatives, both people we respect… That sort of thing.
I don’t know anything about the circumstances in which that photo was supposedly taken. Is it supposed to have been taken after he was admitted? Why is he wearing street clothes rather than a gown?
The Washington Post says they reviewed metadata of the original photo, and it looks real.
McConnell took a photo with that day’s newspaper. The internet has questions.
He could be in rehab at this point. That chair and the bedding look very institutional.
Baked russet potato skin with butter, salt, and pepper is one of life’s simple pleasures.
This, but with the provisio (included in the poll) that it’s perfectly cooked. I like my skin rubbed with oil and seasoned prior to baking, resulting in a slightly crispy and delicious exterior. Cheaper, lesser places may provide an over-cooked, or cooked and (re)heated potato in foil that reduces a lovely skin to a soggy or dried out mess.
Plus, my most frequently selected potato at most joints is a sweet potato. And the skins tend to paper thin and not much fun in their own right.
I would probably die after, but I would go directly to Hobbit Valhalla where I would continue to eat. (there is no fighting in Hobbit Valhalla, only feasting)
Save me a seat at the table!

You sound delicious!
And I am! Or so say the cats, to whom I’ve lost skins to bites, raspy tongues, and numerous claws!
[ I own up to the imprecise language as well! ]

There is a circle of Hell for people who commit this crime against potatoes. It’s right next to the ones for people who leave carts in the parking lotand sign off on disconnecting a circuit without actually removing its cross-connects.
Okay maybe that last one is a little niche, but it’s still evil.
