I’ve been speaking poorly about my old favorite, Philip’s Steaks, a lot recently since switching my midnight preference to the far superior (and more fulfilling, and cheaper) Oregon Steaks. When Philip’s added the blaring tiktok tv in the standing area, it was the last straw for me. But, as I am known to forgive those who do not deserve forgiveness, I was in the neighborhood and stopped by. It’s still an above average steak, I admit. Over the weekend though, I was in Ohio and they have something extra by way of food going on there. I had a po’boy (polish boy), not to be confused with a po’boy (poor boy, from the South). A hot dog, French fries, and sweet gravy. I got food poising that night but I blame Shady Maple’s breakfast buffet.
Another special pile of food I had out there was this heavy mess (I mean that in a glorious way). It’s hard to tell, but it’s three pierogis, two over easy eggs, and a hamburger patty, with gravy and fried onions. It’s served at a bar right across the street from the A Christmas Story house. Guy Fieri ate this once, but without the eggs. He liked it, I loved it.

Gun Honey: 5th Anniversary Oversized Special - This looks like a beach read for sure
Had a pretty packed weekend. A friend from Chicago and a friend from Tokyo converged on my house to play some Super Smash Brothers. We drank a hundred beers. Before that, I was burning holes into my brain at the furcon. It’s really interesting when you start the afternoon playing Family Feud and end the night carrying a heavy chain into the uber. The theme this year was Spirit Halloween which I was really into because it means you’re allowed to be a little crappy looking. I was a dog dressed as a bee. Only ONE person asked “why would a bee be a beekeeper”, I was overprepared for that question.
I also ate a lot of food this weekend but I don’t need to fluff this post up with more gross pictures. When you hang with vegans you eat a lot of pizza. Back to back I had some polar opposite picks. Legit great New York style fur-positive pizza at Rex’s in center city, then bottom of the barrel late drunk dominoes. I was happy both times. I inserted a stop between for a 2am Oregon Steaks cheesesteak, cooper sharp with long hots on a seeded roll.

FLCL Omnibus - I let a friend borrow this years ago before I ever got to read it and it finally came back to me
I was at a rave under a bridge last weekend. I had to break my vow regarding hopping fences. By the time the cops showed up I was already in the meadow staring at the moon.

We had our first beach day of the year. The air show was in town, we saw them draw out pac-man. I enjoyed my big summer hoagie.
