My relationship with Something Awful is weird. It was the only website I was aware of growing up because of the 9/11 tribute video, but I only saw it once because internet was impossible to get where I lived. Then I went to college and Something Awful was the only place on the web I thought to visit. Now I walk around recalling Powerbooks and lost fingats, but have no capacity to understand or tolerate Twitter, which somehow became the most important thing in the world.

I guess I'm too old for that sorta nonsense anymore:

"Gold-fringed admiralty flags!!!" is one of those references that didn't originate here, but I use it all the time now and don't think about it because it's common knowledge here and like, not unknown in the general public

And then I use it to randoms and they have no idea what the gold-fringed flags mean.

I got a gang tag for inadvertently participating in a "make mayo or get toxxed" thread challenge

No one was gonna lose anything if they didn't follow through.

That said, that was the last fun food challenge we got to have before the pandemic. There was some talk of making "Latverian food" (Latveria being the fictional country ruled by Doctor Doom) in March but, well, the world happened.

I am proud of my Mayo Dukes, though; Sandwich Anarchist not only made the gang tag but actively coached posters who had never made mayo and, you know, I think everyone came out happier for it.

Could follow up with Bechamel Boys: make each of the 5 mother sauces (and serve them on something appropriate). I'm thinking about doing Eggs Benedict tomorrow, although I don't have any ham or bacon.

Find goons who insist that they vomit at the sight of any and all instances of the extremely simple and widespread dressing known as "mayonnaise" (because ugh it is so AMERICAN and RICH and makes you FAT and I have GOOD TASTE) and then force them to home-make mayo, eat it on something, and realize that it's pretty good and has uses beyond dunking a white-bread bologna sandwich into helman's or making a macaroni-n-mayo slop salad.

Also sandwich chain Jimmy John's will name you a Mayo Master irl if you can go from slicing the fresh bread loaf to the finished cold sandwich in a certain amount of time (I wanna say a minute and a half?)

Like you get a lovely little paper certificate and corporate will consider you better for promotion and everything.

That doesn't change how if you mention mayonnaise on this here website then about 15 million people will insist that everyone in the midwest eats it breakfast lunch and diner except they themselves, who eat good civilized food from countries that look down their noses at such disgusting poo poo sauces.

As the goon who somehow sparked the idea of making a Latverian food challenge a thing, and proudly brandishing my badge of Mayo Duke, I gotta weigh in here.

I think during this doomed time, we could just do a Doom Food thread. Just post something you cooked for yourself while quarantined/sheltering-in-place. Like, last night I realized "hey, I have a can of garbanzos, a can of black beans, and some cherry tomatoes. gently caress yeah, I'm making balela salad!"

And not a forums saga per se, but just a feel-good story about food which has been a personal saga, please see this post.

I know this isn't a cooking thread but I made it this morning and it was goddamn delicious. I used lime juice in the sauce because I didn't have lemon, and lime goes well with avocado. Thanks again for recommending that.
