Definitive Ranking Of Fast Food French Fries
newscastic

There are very few things more important in this world than good french fries. Equally as important is the knowledge of where to go when the cravings hit. So, in order from worst to best, here's a definitive ranking of ten different fast food french fries. If you're not one of those people who pretends to be too good for fast food, I encourage you to go on a tasting tour of sorts and try them all -- and let me know if you agree!

10. Shake Shack.

Crinkle-cut fries lie on a spectrum. On one end is the perfect fry. Crispy, hot, and great inside/outside ratio. On the other end is a crinkle-cut deep fried stick of mashed potato. Sadly, these fries lean too far to the mashed potato end of the spectrum to earn a higher ranking. But they do photograph well. #doitforthegram

9. KFC Potato Wedges.

Please see mashed potato argument, above.

8. Wendy's.

They're kind of limp and greasy, and not in a good way. The only way they got this high up on the list was because they can be redeemed a little bit if you dunk them in a Frosty.

7. Burger King (Classic, not the crinkle cut BS).

Better than Wendy's, but not by much.

6. Five Guys.

Served in a seemingly bottomless cup that overflows into a salt-littered, grease-stained brown bag. Yum, yum, yum.

5. Jack in the Box.

Perfectly curly and seasoned to perfection. Also, heavily campaigned for by my Texan roommate.

4. Chick-fil-A.

The indescribable sensation of dunking one of these waffle-cut beauties into Polynesian sauce is exactly what earned them the number four spot.

3. Arby's.

Thank you, Arby's, for like, the most perfect curly fries ever.

2. Popeye's.

Two words: cajun seasoning.

1. McDonald's.

Sorry, but nothing beats the classics -- a.k.a. hot, fresh McDonald's fries. Whether you dunk them in ketchup, sweet and sour, a McFlurry, or nothing at all, there's nothing better. And yes, I will fight anyone about this.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

"A Christmas Story" is the star on top of the tree.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate
Mental Floss

One staple of the Christmas season is sitting around the television watching a Christmas movie with family and friends. But of the seemingly hundreds of movies, which one is the star on the tree? Some share stories of Santa to children ("Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"), others want to spread the Christmas joy to adults ("It's a Wonderful Life"), and a select few are made to get laughs ("Elf"). All good movies, but merely ornaments on the Christmas tree of the best movies. What tops the tree is a movie that bridges the gap between these three movies, and makes it a great watch for anyone who chooses to watch it. Enter the timeless Christmas classic, "A Christmas Story." Created in 1983, this movie holds the tradition of capturing both young and old eyes for 24 straight hours on its Christmas Day marathon. It gets the most coverage out of all holiday movies, but the sheer amount of times it's on television does not make it the greatest. Why is it,
then? A Christmas Story does not try to tell the tale of a Christmas miracle or use Christmas magic to move the story. What it does do though is tell the real story of Christmas. It is relatable and brings out the unmatched excitement of children on Christmas in everyone who watches. Every one becomes a child again when they watch "A Christmas Story."

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Christmas is one of my personal favorite holidays because of the Christmas traditions my family upholds generation after generation. After talking to a few of my friends at college, I realized that a lot of them don't really have "Christmas traditions" in their family, and I want to help change that. Here's a list of Christmas traditions that my family does, and anyone can incorporate into their family as well!
