Tambourine Man posted:Not to mention he just bought a new cast iron skillet to cook with, which takes at least an hour in the oven to season it. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cast_iron_cookware#Seasoning Maybe they'll just knock her out as soon as she arrives, while they put in the several hours of prep and cooking needed for such a meal. Edit: The Cubelodyte posted:Seems to me Greg Evans knows as much about cooking as Lynn Johnston knows about "young people". Evans knows enough about the names of delicious food to put his knowledge above Johnston's in comparison. Perhaps he's simply taking cues from the food network, as they are notoriously lazy in showing the actual work required to bring great dishes to life.

Tambourine Man posted:I don't think so, Tim. He said he brought, not bought. Second, looking at that drawing, the edges are far too thin to be cast iron, and the coloring is a dead give away that it's clasp. My guess is copper clasp between titanium. I can't tell from the picture whether or not it is non-stick, but I am leaning towards no, as TJ learned from his Italian grandmother and I feel that for that reason he would have a more rustic approach to cookery and therefore shy away from more professional, high tech cookware. I stand corrected. It did look a little thin, but I just assumed that the art was to blame.

StevenDS posted:Much like the Bushes appearances in a lot of Ministry albums, the Bushes are probably getting hefty royalty checks for their appearances in this stip. Pretty much every "This Modern World" strip is just a Bush bash fest. No way are you comparing the wonderful industrial metal dissonance of Ministry to the hippie poo poo fest that is minimum security. Ministry just seems to work better when a Bush is in the White House. And they're off of heroin, that helps too.

He's waiting for an opportune time to spring from the kitchen and reveal the web of lies that was dinner. She'll leave in disgust, Brad will break down, and TJ will there for emotional support

What if all of FOOB has been a build up to a Lynch inspired surreal ending. We already know that it will end in the darkest way possible, trapped in a never ending loop where change is impossible. Where a marriage to Grantony is fate, destined by a cruel puppetmaster. The more I think about it, I would love for Lynch to do a Foob movie.

The only thing that could make this better is a scene where the boy cuts off her pigtails with a straight razor, while the duck screams (quacks?) in the corner at the horror of the scene and the pain from a gunshot wound.

Occasionally, for hospitality and social purposes, he drinks tea, coffee and buttermilk. Until now, he had three strict fastings, during which he had just sun energy and only water and was under the control and observation of various science and medical teams.

It almost seems like the writer of MS is fan of pol pot, but thinks he didn't go far enough. The return to an agricultural society is still too advanced for her, so she's going to settle for hunter-gatherer, Even if it means that 90% of the population will die as the Great Transition occurs. For now though, she's preaching her message online, and the constant interaction with technology is her cross to bear.

She looks like she's squatting to take a poo poo in her pants as she's smelling whatever the gently caress that thing is. The expression on her face is just so, so... smug. What the hell? She just read this week's minimum security and is taking her first blissful poo poo in the woods.

Billy Black posted:It still can't be that good for you, because they warn you to not use Teflon if you own a bird and live in a relatively small house (or a poorly circulated one), or they will die. Yeah, birds are really sensitive, but it certainly doesn't bode well for the product. I still use it anyway, I just try to make sure it doesn't get scratched too much. Unless your internal body temperature is over 400 degrees Fahrenheit, those tiny flaked off pieces of teflon are only ruining your pan, not your body. It was designed to be as inert as possible if accidentally eaten. So just don't cook with them on high heat and you should be fine.

ookuwagata posted:And Sarah Silverman has pretty much free reign with her chink jokes. She would not be able to say the n-word with impunity. Her career would be over. As far as I know she does use the n-word, just not on network or cable tv. The point still stands though regarding discrimination and Asian Americans. Edit. Hrm, she seems to waiver on that word, but still uses it enough for my point to remain a little valid. http://www.popmatters.com/columns/sawyer/060120.shtml posted:One of the most startling and undermining revelations in Jesus is Magic comes during an off-key lull in the comedy when she talks about not telling a joke with the word 'friend of the family' in it at a comedy club because she was afraid of a table of black people sitting in front of her. That seems dangerously close to what her most strident critics accuse her of doing. Does she pick on gays and Asians more frequently for the hardly endearing reason that she believes that they are less likely to wait for her after the show with tire irons in hand? Silverman clearly tries to pass this off as just one more moment of "meta-bigotry" (e.g., jokes that use the form of racism to criticize real-live racism), she's yet again being racist in a way that exposes us to the structure of racism. She's showing us that the root of all racism comes from a desire to have someone else to piss on, someone lower than oneself, who won't fight back.
