Dear E/N, My vacation is nearing it's end, and I have started reading up on what has happened while I was not there - few items that needs my attention, but I am leaving my vacation mood behind, and dealing with people who have more issues than National Geographic. That is not a reason not to be happy though, since the stress relief mechanisms are easily engaged (yelling at people until the problem, or they, dissapear), drinking wine with the wife, and childlike playing with aryan girls until they succumb to the giggles. I will need to shave (or at least trim down) my beard tomorrow, since it has grown like it was fertilized with super potent racehorse sperm and dove poo poo. Monday we will re-engage the world, and make it a better place for all humankind, eliminating CO2 and recapping the poles while stopping gender confusion in polar bears (through extensive counselling) all of this for the sake of fun and profit. Vacation has been good to me! Edit: A snipe?? Let me google horse sperm..... AW GODDAMN gently caress! Edit2: Have a vacation picture from the Vosges instead  Happy Hat fucked around with this message at 13:29 on Aug 4, 2012 |

You need a fedora or you're no true goon, Hat  And that is the gooniest fedora. The alpha fedora. At least until they make one out of bacon.

I went to a funeral today for a family friend who died suddenly. They are all religious but whatever, I went to pay respect. Then the pastor, I poo poo you not, starts talking about how he went to Chick Fil A to support the owner over being anti-gay marriage. In the middle of a memorial speech. For a guy who just died. What the gently caress is wrong with people? What was worse was the cadence of laughter from the room of old, wealthy, white assholes as if to say in solidarity, "Yeah, gently caress those fags!" I had my daughter with me and I'm glad that she didn't understand what he was alluding to. Regardless, I talked to her again about not judging people based on what they look like, who they love, etc. But it was just disgusting. Who the gently caress does that at a goddamn funeral? Had it not been one, I would have left. But then again, had it not been a funeral, I wouldn't have been in a church to begin with.

There's one about 5 minutes from my house. Along with a KFC, a White Castle/Church's, and soon there will be a Raising Cane's as well. All within a mile or so of each other on the same stretch of road.

As a Christian I find it incredibly annoying that people spend their whole lives growing up learning about Jesus and somehow concluded that he wants us to pick on and harass those who are already picked on and harassed.

I don't think you really understand Christianity until you have a job, stable job, are married, and pump out a kid. then it's like all heavens descend and suddenly like a billion blindingly white lightbulbs go on in your head and you realize all this chatter about love and faith and stuff is just an excuse to have a white guy club where you can meet with other married white guys and network and chat about other suddenly relevant topics like where to get a cheap nanny or what lawnmower works best or which other church constituent might have a fag son

Bears was awesome fun to hang out with. I wish she could have slept over and had a slumber party, but her mum got worried, so she had to dash. Puppy and I will definitely be making a trip to Montreal at some point to visit her and Mr. Bears. :3 She made such a good impression on Puppy, that he offered to let her crash here instead of with her family, in case she and Mr. Bears want to come to the city without family Looming Over. I think it's touching that Puppy backs me up whenever I make a rule for my house. We're cat-sitting my boss's cat. She likes to climb on the bed. Instead of trying to overrule my no cats on the bed rule, he enforces it too. Same goes for when I visit (with him) my brother's house. When I say that the junk food is off-limits for snack time, he helps me to enforce it. It feels nice to have a husband who really does support me in every way. I'm a lucky guy.

It's 1955, I think oregano was hot stuff at the time because all the vets who came back from tasting awesome Italian food in WW2. In fact maybe it was even put in this dish because it was a big fad!

Preparing carbonara, drinking a glass of cold white wine as it pisses down outside, while the wife bathes the baby and we all listen to the Immaculate Collection. Life doesn't get much better than that.

I wonder who went, "Golly, I know what this canned bean casserole is missing...oregano! Mmm mmm, now that tastes just swell!" It caught my eye after hearing that my sister-in-law made "Mexican Lasagna" and brought it to my father's house. Look, I wasn't there, but I've been a party to her "cooking" before. By lasagna I'm pretty sure she means "casserole", and by Mexican I have my suspicions she means "cream of mushroom soup."

CuddleChunks posted:Well how else are you supposed to get matching spices, smart guy? All the ones at the store look different! If you want the tang without the heat, consider soaking diced serrano or jalapenos in olive oil for a few hours before cooking. The oil will draw out a bit of the capsaicin, weakening the heat without making the salsa totally bland. Make sure you rinse the peppers off thoroughly in water before mixing into your salsa if you're trying to reduce the amount of heat.

I'm assuming you're seasoning with only the finest artisan salt money can buy and the rarest peppercorns as well, anything else would do a great disservice to the meal.

therattle posted:I prefer the soothing creaminess of cream of mushroom soup. You will need to season your dish generously, though. Psh, everyone knows you temper the flame of salsa chicken with massive amounts of colby jack cheese. Pre-shredded, of course. (If you're brave, you can go for the fancy stuff with taco seasoning already blended in!)

The truly adventurous gourmand passes right by that pre-shredded cheese for suckers and gets the pre-shredded THREE cheese blend. The natural mellowing agents of a Fancy Ketchup will also tame that devil capsaicin's fiery tongue.
