audio review : Heil Hitler ( song ) … Kanye West

The title, as a response from Kanye West to the countless naysayers he’s accumulated as of late; mainly sensitive Jews; is quite brilliant. The song itself, which comes across more like a demo without a second verse, isn’t far behind. That’s thanks not to the crude lyrics; the “nigga” bits are redundant; but the catchy vocal melodies. This is a sociopolitical anthem of sorts.

audio review : Burning Out ( song ) … DJ Trippy

I probably would’ve called it Burning Up to emphasize the concept of summer and sweaty girls dancing, but Out, which does imply getting tired from physical activity, gets it close enough. The most appropriate setting is inside the club though with a DJ like Trippy on the ones and twos. The song is a definite party banger.

video review : Jaqueline Amorim versus Polyana Viana at UFC Fight Night

video review : Jaqueline Amorim versus Polyana Viana at UFC Fight Night

“This one’s gonna play out on the ground,” Laura Sanko predicts and thankfully it does. Who wants to see two sexy Brazilian women fight standing when they could be sixty-nining 35 seconds in? Jaqueline Amorim is the top as she dominates Polyana Viana for the whole bout before submitting her. The cutest moment is their confused reaction to Dan Miragliotta mistakenly ending the first round early.

Reese’s Peanut Butter

Reese's Peanut Butter

This isn’t just Reese’s Peanut Butter. It’s an ice cream version from Breyers. It tastes sweet and yummy, of course, but it’s not quite as good as you might anticipate. It’s “light”, meaning it has less fat than normal ice cream, and you can tell. The “chunks of Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups” are also too small or maybe there just aren’t enough of them.

Scoops Ahoy : Mint Flare

Scoops Ahoy : Mint Flare

I don’t like the taste of mint; it’s a shame how difficult it is to find good toothpaste in other flavors; but it goes well enough with chocolate. This Scoops Ahoy ice cream, from the Starcourt Mall in Hawkins (Indiana) on Netflix’s Stranger Things, also includes “chocolate chunks and rainbow confetti”; chewy bits that help make it a lot better than the name suggests.

video review : Michael Chandler versus Paddy Pimblett at UFC 314

video review : Michael Chandler versus Paddy Pimblett at UFC 314

I don’t even like Michael Chandler and I was rooting for him to get a knockout win here. That’s how annoying his opponent is. “Whether you hate him or love him,” Joe Rogan declares, “all eyes are on Paddy Pimblett when he fights.” The more he wins, the truer that statement becomes. Chandler is his toughest foe yet and he makes relatively easy work of him without so much as a scratch. Oh well. Maybe next time.

Chick-Fil-A’s Sausage Egg And Cheese Biscuit

Chick-Fil-A's Sausage Egg And Cheese Biscuit

It seems none of these fast-food restaurants can quite match the taste of McDonald’s when it comes to the Biscuit sandwich, but this Chick-Fil-A Sausage Egg And Cheese version is damn good all the while. Never mind being closed on Sundays. The real holy shame is that this bad boy, probably the franchise’s best food item, isn’t available for lunch and dinner.

Chick-Fil-A’s Cookies And Cream Milkshake

Chick-Fil-A's Cookies And Cream Milkshake

My only complaint with this Chick-Fil-A Milkshake is that the Cookies, which taste like Oreos, consist of such tiny bits. I understand it’s considered a beverage, but they also give you a spoon. It’s a tasty treat either way; the whipped cream and cherry topping also adds a touch of elegance; but a chunky version, with big fat cookies you have to chew down, would be even better.

Van Leeuwen French Ice Cream : Buttermilk Berry Cornbread

Van Leeuwen French Ice Cream : Buttermilk Berry Cornbread

This is Buttermilk ice cream with “pieces of honey cornbread”. They should’ve stopped there or perhaps added strawberries. Raspberries are one of my least favorite fruits, but their presence only prevents this from being the delicacy it could’ve been. It’s still damn good as is, especially when you let it melt a little.

audio review : Wet ( song ) … YFN Lucci ( featuring Latto )

YFN Lucci’s hook is slick enough over this bedroom beat, but it’s Latto who steals the scene, à la Roxy Reynolds on Gorilla Zoe’s Talk Back, with a raunchy verse about her “leaking” Wet pussy. “After I’m done, he gon need a mop,” she says, “Treat me like a lady; fuck me like a thot.” She goes on to compare the sound to someone stirring a pot of macaroni and cheese.
