My local supermarket keeps the dark beers in the cooler!

C'mon guys, the darks are brewed to taste best at room temperature... and I want it now.

Listing off the elements of a piece of fiction so you know what's in it while avoiding the fun of reading it.

I see no benefit to anyone in what you're doing here.

I'm 50 and I can confirm that all my joints are now aging faster than all my other joints.

Our mexi is newer, more innovative. Better for your pocket and the environment than the old mexi.

Are you continuing the comic, or making an actual aside?

Would they do the same to you?

Congratulations on figuring out all men, everywhere, oh sagacious one.

One of ours will track me down every day two hours before feeding time and start howling at me for food.

You will wait, you little glutton.

And what did the Olden Times explorers who discovered this wonder of nature name it?

 

Especially if the sinners still need their punishment?

 

Either all at once, or over a lifetime?

 

My position is that it's a snack and husband tax must be paid. My wife is arguing that it's a meal or occupies some third food space and it's entirely hers. Who's right, court of Lemmy?

 

To explain what I mean, I think you can level up a cooking style. For example, pasta. At level 1, you're boiling dried pasta and adding sauce out of a jar. At level 1, you add your own spices. Level 3, switch to fresh pasta. Level 4, make your own sauce. And finally at level 5, make the pasta from scratch.

So with BBQ, I guess level 1 would be cooking the meat so it's neither burnt nor underdone. Maybe level 2 is mixing different meats/cuts that have different heat/time requirements and cooking well. Further levels = ?

 

Picture this: you're working in a large open-plan office and you need to send a message to Steve at the other end of the room. You pull out your messenger handgun, dictate your message (because you paid for the voice recognition feature) and let it engrave your words on a bullet. Then you simply fire it at the target mounted above Steve's cube!

Fast, attention-getting and simple. It's the perfect system.

 

I'm sharing this because any reduction in unnecessary packaging waste is good for the planet - and because I think laser-etching avocados is funny. 🙂

 

I followed a Jaime Oliver recipe for curry, which started with grating onion, ginger and garlic. I liked the curry, but grating an onion is a miserable job. He said that technique unlocked the onion's 'sweetness'. How much difference do you think I'd notice if I used a food processor?

I noticed that one of the monitors in the loom control room had "SKIN?" written on it in the dust that covered it. It seemed pretty mysterious and I was sure it was a detail that was going to be important, but it never came up as far as I noticed. Any theories as to what it's about?
