Napoleon Dynamite was filmed 4 hours from where I live.

One of my wife's cousins let them use their farm for quite a few shots.

A lot of people in the movie were people who lived in Preston.

My car insurance somehow gives me discounts to various places, one of which is an electronics store that I could've been buying video games and other things from all along.

Good thing I held off on getting a specific game. Once it goes on sale again, I'd be saving $35 off the regular price.

I never bothered with this store as much since other places have a better price guarantee policy (you save money if the price drops within 30 days of purchase), but I won't need to bother if I'm already saving that extra money beforehand.

That Rapper Flo-Rida's name was really just Florida with a space in the middle because he's from there. Yeah I'm not smart.

I didn't know that until I actually saw the name. Before that, I only had heard his name, and assumed it was probably just spelled "Flow Rider" or something but heard it from a bunch of people with a certain drawl.

Learned this from Weakest Link.

Podcast got its name from iPOD + broadCAST


That's a name that won't ever change, but I wonder what a more suitable name would be that stands the test of time/new tech

I've always only microwaved leftover pizza. Never once considered re-heating it an an oven, toaster, or on a grill.

Well, after some finetuning and figuring it out, my re-heating woes have been solved. I have gotten it down to 25 minutes from a cold oven at 275 degrees wrapped with foil over the top of it (EDIT: I forgot to mention on the bottom rack as well). Retains about 70% of its original taste, as opposed to like 25% of it haha.

By the way, for those wanting to suggest it, cold pizza is and never will be an option for me. I detest it.

Microwave for 45 seconds or cold will always be good enough for me lol

It's the age old question: do I want to spend 30-45+ minutes preparing a meal that will be good to great, or do I want to throw something in the microwave for 4 minutes that will probably be pretty mediocre? The value of time vs quality of life. Could go either way.

Depends on a "need to eat now" basis. If I need to shower anyway or I'm not yet hungry, I'm pretty good with this alternative.

I'm not just talking about a slice, either. For those who don't know, I'm a big eater. Just this morning I did this for 8 XL Round Table Pizza slices (so not massive, but half of an XL pizza) and three garlic bread twists. Not only is it not just a quickie, but that couldn't fit in the microwave anyway.

This is also not to mention for those who also don't know my quirks, I don't microwave things at 10% power. Pizza would go at about 30% microwave power for me, which means it'll take like 10+ minutes to microwave anyway.

Always stick my leftover pizza (and cinnamon twists from Dominos) in my convection oven for about 10 min at 250-275 and it tastes great

I used to only microwave it too (especially since as a kid you obviously wouldn't be using an oven or anything), but the day I realized i could warm it without a microwave changed so much, not just for pizza but many leftovers.

In the case of pizza, I just use my toaster oven instead. Only takes at most several minutes of toasting and it comes out great.

Oh, my air fryer gets my leftovers. It's magical!

However, pizza is pizza to me. It's delicious as is, in any form.

That's one thing about the "cold pizza" debate I'd add.

Microwave pizza vs oven pizza vs cold pizza tastes like 3 completely different things. I don't hate any of those, but obviously nothing beats pizza from the oven.
