Not food related, but this story brought the memory to mind.

I used to work at a place that bought and sold used books, games, consoles and other stuff. If a console got through inspection and it turned out not to be sellable because of minor issues, it didn't just get thrown away, they took it out back and smashed it with a sledgehammer. I have a vivid rage filled memory of there being a perfectly functional Xbox 360 that had a broken eject button that you could easily eject with a pen or paperclip that they smashed to pieces. This was when Xbox 360 was still the latest and greatest. Well, as great as it ever was, anyway.

Nearly doubled it at this point. Wtf. It's sitting at $26,740 at this moment.

Bc they are dumb, and say dumb shit. And I'm not responding to their nonsense. If I keep my mouth shut, nobody can lie and say I said anything I didn't say. We have cameras everywhere, so it's easy to prove I ignored them and walked on by. I've heard too many horror stories of students getting pissed at their teachers and making up lies and getting them fired. I don't want any part of that. I'm here to fix shit and go home.

Story for justification:

My step sisters kid had a bday party that my mom and step dad talked me into going to bc it was at a restaurant I really liked. I sat on the far end with my mom and step dad, didn't really interact with anyone but them as I didn't really know anybody. Kid had one of her friends there that apparently went to the high school where I work.

A week later I'm working in the high school when this student comes up to me and says, "Hey, didn't we have dinner last week?“ in the front of a classroom, loudly.

I had completely forgotten about the bday all together at this point, and definitely didn't recognize this kid bc I was sat on the opposite end of the loooong table of like 20 people, most of whom I didn't know.

I don't even remember what I said tbh. I just remember the feeling of panic, then her eventually going on to say it was for so and so's bday.

It was definitely just done to be funny and to get a rise out of her friends, but that kinda shit can go bad if heard out of context, and I like my job and don't want to risk it over kids being dumb.

As someone who works IT at a school, this is far too common. I've ignored many a new teacher coming up to me with questions because I thought they were students, and I ignore students at all cost. This has happened in the intermediate buildings. You just can't know how old anyone is anymore, so I assume everyone is underage until proven beyond a shadow of a doubt.

Oh boy, when I watched Spartacus my childhood dreams came true.

Dragon age origins. The mages tower.

I respect my opponent. I think he's a good man. But frankly, I agree with everything he just said!

Ciri is a Witcher. The Witcher isn't missing at all.

Oooh, that sounds like something to try.

I didn't see this listed yet, but this is by far the best I've had. I use Shin Ramen, it's pretty spicy. This offsets the spice a little, but it's still pretty spicy. I'm sure this works with other ramen just fine as well.

Noodles and flavor/herb packets into bowl with water, bowl into microwave.

In another bowl put 1 egg, about the yolks sized amount of kewpie mayo, and a few shakes of soy sauce, however much you want. Whisk it all together well.

Once your noodles are done cooking, SLOWLY pour its super hot contents into the egg mixture while whisking the entire time. Basically you don't want it to get hot enough to cook the egg until it all evenly incorporates.

Enjoy. I like this more than most restaurant ramen.

Sometimes I'll add meats or a boiled egg or green onions if I have it on hand, but that's absolutely not necessary for it to be amazing.
