Yeah, not being able to parse out that the Old Testament came along considerably before Jesus' time pretty well shows the caliber of braincell they're operating on.

Wasn't it Harlan Ellison (or possibly Stephen King) who used to answer the "where do you get your ideas" question with "right between the eyes?" That seems about right.

Really, what is so wrong with wanting a hearty shift back to decorum, courtesy and competence in society? People being respectable and kind? I really don't like the way these people talk and act and I'd like everyone to get some damned manners back please.

Seriously, why with the damned kid gloves? All this chum in the water and they're too shy for the feeding frenzy? William Randolph Hearst is doing 4500 RPM in his grave right now at how chickenshit these people have gotten. Widdershins.

WTF is wrong with the journalists these days? Hunter Thompson would've thrown hands and Secret Service be damned. This fat fuck vilely disrespects a reporter right in front of them and was nuzzling the murderer who had one of them fucking beheaded and they're all "thank you sir may I have another."

Clackamas Costco is stepping up its game for Asian food pretty considerably. Makes sense, since Hong Phat and SF Mart are on 82nd and doing brisk business. So glad I landed in SE, used to be a total food desert but now it's ethnic market central and it rocks.

It will change your life, no lie. Brown rice is a PITA, loves to burn and stick but it CAN'T fuck itself up when you just bake it for an hour.

I don't measure at all. Dump a buncha rice into my favorite pot for rice. Shake it so it's level. Turn on water, place index finger with the very tip lightly on top of the rice and run it under the water until the water is just a tad over the first knuckle. Boil then simmer then rest. Done!

Brown rice should be baked, seriously, it's a game changer. You will leave it alone because it's in a hot oven!

Oh yeah, bunch of very experienced rednecks and an open field in the moist PNW lol. This was the same friend who helped reroof a 6000 SF house that had 30 year old cedar shakes and we burn piled the whole tearoff, it was a glorious week of bonfire 24/7. Rednecks and fire, that's a party!

The King family I will read anything from regardless of what the blurb sounds like because I trust them to give me a wild ride regardless of the subject matter. And I'm a couple hundred pages in now and things have turned VERY promising!

Well, the whole idea is the herding dog moves the cow around, right? He's doing his job, he's just doing it his own way. 14/10 goodboi would scroomfle.

I just started "King Sorrow" by Joe Hill and if length is what you're looking for, this one qualifies. The hardcover edition is probably about the size of a cinderblock.

What if you make it clear that you're only demonstrating your plating skills, giving a name credit to the brand? That seems perfectly honest, and if you do a good job it's a nice bit of free advertising for them. If you suck, tho, expect a cease & desist order.

Sign me up for that Kickstarter, oh yeah. I mean, why can't we crowdfund random shit like this? Just everybody kick in a few bucks here and there to create bounties for stunts we all want to see--or to give 529 accounts to smart kids making the world better. I bet it would work, spread some joy!

I once had to wrestle my ferret back with his leash as a curious horse dipped his head down to see what odd little animal I had with me and the dinky little maniac FLEW at that horse's nose and did his level best to eat it. They really don't have a grasp of relative size, do they?
