SirPablo posted:I'm suddenly very conscious of how not sharp my knives are. Boomers will refuse to add salt or oil to their cooking because it is unhealty, but will eat prepackaged food with 80% or recommended daily allowance of sodium per serving.

If there's one thing I learned from the French, it's when you start chopping off rich heads you eventually run out and start chopping off everyone else's heads and then somehow the rich heads get back in power. At least they're different rich heads this time. Framboise posted:I asked for a knife sharpener for Christmas. My knives are dull as gently caress. They make motorized belt fed knife sharpeners that I kind of want. But it's literally a heavy metal motor that's only use is sharpening knives once a year so I'll just sharpen them 'meh' with a wet stone. There's definitely an art to it all that I haven't figured out. Krispy Wafer fucked around with this message at 18:38 on Dec 19, 2019 |

One of the Best $100 Purchases I’ve made. Content: A few weeks ago I was leaving a parking garage and got stuck behind a boomer talking to the remote assistant about how she already paid while trying to insert her credit card receipt into the machine. She refused to listen to his directions, but I think he just lifted the gate for her. She drove through and slowed down to a crawling the hotel parking area, looking at her receipt but still moving. I went around her and moved out onto the road, but became unsure of whether or not I was supposed to go (Halifax has weird 5 way stops). I looked in my mirror and the same lady who wasted 5 minutes of my life was upset (edit: throwing her hands, silently yelling) that I wasted 10 seconds of hers lol Professor Shark fucked around with this message at 19:23 on Dec 19, 2019 |

Sentient Data posted:Boomers hate butter but love margarine I asked and received a butter bell for Christmas a few years back. My mom didn't like getting it for me (it was the only thing I actually asked for when they asked), because I should just get the spreadable kind of butter. I like how when you examine those tubs, it's called "buttery spread."

Sure, just dump 3/4 cup into a cookie recipe because butter is so unhealthy https://www.crisco.com/recipes/ultimate-chocolate-chip-cookies-2102 E: Holy loving lol that same link posted:You might be tempted to grab some good ol’ butter for this recipe. Resist the urge. Shortening is the key to perfect pie crust, crispy fried food, and fluffy baked goods and frosting.

My wife's cousin posted some real boomer poo poo on FB about there once being a time when people respected the president and how we need to go back to that time. Then he got all pissy because people in the comments brought up Trump because it had nothing to do with Trump. He's like 30 and full of cop and veteran worship brainworms.

Butter isnt a direct substitute, you have to do it differently.

Obviously he was referring to how the right wing lost their goddamn minds when Obama was elected and started protesting on street corners before he even took office! I too remember those days.

My favorite is when all they have to grease a pan is vegetable oil because butter and olive oil are full of fat and mustn’t be used for any reason. My dad can’t cook an egg to save his life. He’ll cook them on high heat until they’re hard and brown and add no salt because that’s bad for you.

My uncle did something similar once at a family party. He doesn't like mingling or entertaining or anything, so he instead holes himself up in his dingy uninviting basement and just sits there on his computer or watching TV. In one of his constant efforts to lose weight and live healthier, he came to the dinner table, and instead of getting a proper plate with food, he told my aunt that he'd just fill up this smaller bowl and eat only that. Fine. He then climbed out of the basement five more times with that same drat bowl.

Huh. Never had a problem with it but I'm also careful when I cook eggs to keep the heat lower and just spend two more minutes longer making sure they aren't charred and sulfury.

Cooking eggs you need high heat immediately and then you bring the heat down to medium to medium-low. If you get your pan hot enough before you put your eggs on, you'd probably wind up burning the olive oil so no.. it's not fine for eggs. Just use butter or bacon fat ffs.
