      Unforgivable

      Unforgivably hot

      Seriously, whether or not Obama was our best president is debatable (certainly the best recent president). But he was undoubtedly our sexiest president.

            His foreign policies were decent. His domestic policies were incredible, especially in the first half of his term. Especially considering he had COVID and its recession to recover from at the same time. If he had been better at messaging to make sure everybody knew what he was getting done and how good it was for everybody, I’m not sure we’d be in this current series of messes at all right now, or ever again if the hamberders keep flowing.

        Mustard is the designated “normal” condiment for hot dogs, no??? Mustard+relish, maybe some diced onion. What was he supposed to have used, ketchup??? 🤢

        Or did he use some “fancy” stone ground dijon mustard so people were offended it wasn’t just yellow mustard?

        EDIT: I looked it up and it was spicy Dijon mustard on a hamburger, not a hot dog. That’s extra silly because hamburgers go with basically any condiment, from sriracha to aioli.

          people were offended because they thought it’s elitist to eat dijon

          1. I’m poor and stupid but I eat dijon and I love it

          2. the same people went on to vote for the most elitist president I’ve known by far

          they simply wanted to hate the black man

          if the only reason to hate him republicans could think of is that he ate mustard, that man is irreproachable

            Not in Chicago.

            We don’t like ketchup on hot dogs.

            Mustard, relish, onion, tomato, pickle, sport peppers, and celery salt are what we like.

            The wikipedia image for hot dog has only mustard on it, and the vast majority of images when searching for “hot dog” have mustard, or both mustard and ketchup, but I don’t see a single example of only ketchup. Only ketchup on a hotdog is usually what would be served to young children.
