On A Tour Of Korean Snack Foods

This was hilarious! I used to work for one of the big American snack manufacturers and now I live in India. I love seeing the Indianized versions of chips and cheetos - here, Chester Cheetah is inexplicably Mexican and hawks something (disgustingly) called Masala Balls. Also, the difficulty of using bugle fingers is why I've never grown my nails out either.

If you're ever in Pittsburgh on a weekend, stop by the Hindu temple for a free meal. People are friendly and the food is always excellent.

On According to "Survey": College Majors and their Resulting Salaries

As an industrial engineer, I can positively say that there are a lot of engineering jobs in the city. But, I can also say that most engineers actually want to end up in the middle of Iowa working for General Mills.

On '2012': I am going to watch this shit four times this weekend!

I'm glad Dan Kois is writing movie reviews for wapo now. He used to do great Television without Pity recaps.
