Had a marketing co-worker (semiconductor industry) who managed to get C-level execs to use the phrase "tea-bagging" to refer to sending hardware samples to various reviewers or journalists. It was endlessly amusing to hear in a company-wide presentation. He was so proud.

I'm sure Nate's had other career highlights since then, but that was certainly an early success.

Who here recalls the weightlifting forum meltdown over how frequently one could train "every other day?" Obligatory watch.

From near Nashville Tennessee through North Alabama and Mississippi to the Louisiana border there exists a 444-mile roadway called the Natchez Trace Parkway. The only signage you will see is related to non-commercial scenic viewpoints. No billboards. No businesses. Nothing but forests and fresh air. Furthermore, no commercial traffic is allowed whatsoever on the full length of the byway, and the authorities strictly enforce that rule.

It's glorious. Waterfalls, walking and biking trails, Indian mounds, and miles and miles of advertising-free roadway.

As others have guessed, this is a bovid tooth, Bos taurus (cow).

I always thought jelly on corn chips would be good, but maybe that's nacho jam.

We donated ours to a local nonprofit org that rents them out. Such a cool group of film nerds running this operation. https://www.weluvvideo.org/
