Too bad Nettdata is traveling. Otherwise, I'm sure he would've immediately changed your rank to "Stuffed Cougar"
Weeeeeee! Holy shit. One of the comments under the video at the website that linked this reads: We need more falling babies in America? In our political system? If I run for office, should I make falling babies or catching babies part of my platform?
You gotta be more specific about shape: a burger needs to be FLAT on top, not round. And the entire thing, bun and all from top to bottom, should fit into a non-dislocated mouth in one bite. There's two things that most people and nearly every restaurant gets wrong about burgers: 1) They go for curb appeal, "what looks good and colorful and displays all of its toppings individually in a picture." They forget that, if you're about to eat a burger, you've already made the decision that you are gonna eat something not healthy, and that your priorities are 99% "taste" and 1% "the appearance doesn't offend me too much." 2) They ignore, and worse yet fail to utilize the incredible property of burgers to combine multiple awesome textures and flavors into a single bite. I already mentioned that one should be able to take a SINGLE bite of the burger, and bite through the burger from top to bottom, without much effort. That's a pre-requisite. What amateur chefs, and restaurants, fail to realize is that in addition to that First Law of Burger making, you should also take advantage of things like buttering and putting garlic on the buns then toasting it, lightly grilling the lettuce, frying the jalapenos, caramelizing the onions, throwing the tomatoes in the trash, using queso instead of a simple slice of cheese, and then extra-toasting the bottom bun (because it's gonna be the one that sops up the juice from everything on top of it, and you do. not. want. it to get soggy).
Good dam it now i want a really good burger, oh well, I am my MIL is making curry chicken. It is the main reason i married my wife, is for her mothers cooking.
I'm making effinshenanigan's burger recipe tomorrow for friends. They are excellent, almost addictive. Putting the butter pocket in their centre is brilliant. Everyone has liked them so far.
Speaking of burgers, Kristen Stewart has an ass like a champion. Got a bbq to go to tomorrow. Buddy asked some of our gal friends to bring their friends because one of our mutuals just got dumped by a hose beast. When I hit a dry spot buddy got liquored up and tried hooking me up with his ex whom I have nothing in common with and an awkward evening was had by all. Funny how friendship works some times.
So I was sitting at work today feeling shitty about my life when I overhear my Chinese co-worker talking to someone about how she didn't get to go to school between sixth grade and college because of the cultural revolution. That made me feel shitty about feeling shitty. Then my boss let us go home early and I got over all of it.
My Happy Place? I guess it boils down to one of two. On the trail with days and days, miles and miles in front of me - nothing but my pack and my +1 (our sweet dog is bonus) Non-work day with an amazing book I can't put down, french press in the AM and cervezas just before Noon
Metero shower tonight, 2-4 A.M. Eastern time. According to the article, look in the north sky. The biggest pain is the light pollution here. If I feel proactive enough, might head out to the beach for a better view. With a little luck a good show will out my doomsday, evangelical neighbors who before have chosen to keep their crazy indoors. Ok. That was actually pretty damn cool.
