It's odd to me how an English word can mean completely different things, like how "rank" can mean "smells bad".  Or put in order of ...  Or military status ...

This trips up my wife at times.

Oh, and my current rankings would probably have FSU at #1.  They have two solid wins.  Texas might be #2.

I'd try it:



"Here barbecue means one thing and one thing only: pork- specifically, 15 to 20-pound hams slow-cooked over hickory and oak. The finished pork is chopped into long shreds and dressed in a thin, tangy red sauce, and it's infused with the rich, juicy smoke flavor that you can only get from a direct heat pit." - Robert F. Moss, Southern Living's "The South's Top 50 BBQ Joints of 2023"

Fresh Air Barbeque (freshairbarbecue.com)

What makes Fresh Air unique is the old-fashioned wood burning pit that many consider to be a working piece of Southern Barbecue History.  Wood is a very important aspect of cooking barbecue, giving it a distinct flavor. Fresh Air only uses a combination of Hickory and Oak.  We take great pride in cooking our food the same way it has been cooked for over 80 years. The design of the pit was invented by Toots Caston, founder of Fresh Air Bar-B-Que, in the 1940’s and remains unchanged to this day.  The pit is very labor and time intensive and requires many hours of tending to, even through the night in order to cook our hams in a traditional manner. We operate our pit 7 days a week, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

Stringy ham slathered in sauce?  Man, I'm not sure about that...

Which is why the dictionary does not define a word, context does. This trips up so many people when learning a foreign language, they look words up in a lexicon and say it must mean this, when the context of it useage is something different.

I still am amazed at these "dorms".  I presume they are spreading "everywhere".  My buddy says a lot of Asians come here for school and for them money is no object.  After my first year I moved to an off campus private dorm that was "nice" for the times, we had a pool and a cafeteria that was OK.  It was closer to my classes which was a plus.  I guess the times are achangin' ...

Here Are 12 Cities People Voted as the “Snobbiest” in America (msn.com)

Just a list.
The fact that it’s “people voted” is odd. That methodology has to be very specific and actually might be interesting (not very scientific, to be sure)

Rankings



Ari Wasserman somehow just made his first trip to Notre Dame stadium, and he said an underrated thing, that he didn't even realize he appreciated was how much lightning has changed now that night games are a regular thing.  A lot of stadiums had either shitty lightning or the network would bring in temporary lights, but they were purely meant for the field.  Now the permanent lightning also accounts for the fans.  Probably smart, but he mentioned how cool it was that ND didn't.  He said you really can't see anything except the field in the dark.

I've always said natural grass looks WAAAAAAY better than FieldTurf under the lights, which gives off a fake plastic shine, but Notre Dame is the one exception.  I wonder if that is why
