After spending several years in rural Alabama, I found that R.C. Cola and a Moon Pie are great together. Also, Coke and peanuts are damn good. Just open the bottle and pour the peanuts in. Delicious. Mmmmmmm

Damn it, Wiggum, you took mine. Every time we order out pizza I sit around and wait for everyone to finish their slices. Then I nab the “pizza bones” and dunk them directly into Great Value Buttermilk Ranch - nothing but generic will do. Pizza Hut Pan pizza bones work best, but even frozen pizza will do in a pinch.
