Oh my god, what the poo poo have I started?

And by that I mean I decided to make a new batch of chilli to one up this receipe. Currently marinating venison cubes in a nice ale overnight, then I will brown them in a pan tommorow, toss em in a slow cooker with veg, tomato sauce, fine diced chillis (fresh and dried), and a bit of the beer. Follow up with ground tortilla chips for thickening and seasoning. Yum.

I'm thinking that when I get paid (and run out of my current chili leftovers) I need to do a Let's Cook! of this recipe. I just don't know if I should do it in BSS or GWS. But ground tortilla chips as thickening and seasoning? :crossarms:

Learned it on an episode of good eats. It actually works out really well, and is a good way to get it thicker without beans.

Also, Ollie's chili reciepe sucks. He got it from his Mom it says, so maybe that's just another way Moira is a villian? making subpar chili?

Yeah, I'm a bit disappointed. Though I am glad they at least use cubed beef and not just a fuckload of ground.

But one teaspoon of Cayenne and you call it 'hot?' For shame. Put a tablespoon in there you pansy.

edit: beaten, but the point needs to be made, that poo poo isn't spicy. That's bunny hill chili.

You guys kind of need to read the rest of the recipe. There are three different kinds of chilli powder after the cayenne and each call for a tablespoon.

Now for reference a teaspoon of chilli powder is usually enough to make a chilli con carne for 6 people hot. It might not seem like a lot but three tablespoons of chilli powder is loving insane.

If you're interested in getting into more DC Universe stories because you enjoy Arrow, I'd highly recommend Justice League and the other series in that universe (Batman: the animated series, Superman, Batman beyond etc.) - Arrow has largely tended to be influenced by the same stories that the animated material uses as their touchstone.

On a more Arrow-ey note, what does everyone think this season is building to? The smart money seems to be on Slade as the big bad guy for this year, and then using the League much more heavily in season three.

But the show has ran around and avoided standard plotting in the past, so who the hell knows?

I'd say the season will culminate in Ollie facing off against Brother Blood with maybe the reveal of Slade as the mastermind behind Blood. Then again, it's easy to underestimate how fast this show moves.

When a tree grows, it is soft and pliable. But when it's dry and hard, it dies.

Hardness and strength are death's companions. Flexibility and softness are the embodiment of life.

That which has become hard shall not triumph.

I started watching this show and marathoned it because I heard it had Crixus in it and also I was drunk and really, it should have just been the island parts fleshed out into a series.

With the island arc looking like it's building up to Sara and Ollie taking down Mirakuru-Slade, and the present day arc already revealing Mastermind-Slade, I think we're definitely going to get at least one full fight between Ollie and Slade in the present day. Given the general pace of the show, I also think Slade's vengeance plot is going to conclude this season either with his death (or "death", although it might be a bit much for both Malcolm and Slade to be dead-but-not-really) or with Slade being defeated but not killed and giving up on at the very least this current revenge path.

I can't really put money on anything because we don't know what Merlyn is planning yet. The League is mostly out of play now that Nyssa's story is wrapped up and Sarah is freed from her oath. That leaves Slade and Sebastian, Merlyn, and Isobel and Amanda Waller tie for runner up as traditionally antagonistic but neither having much interest in personally boning Oliver over ('cept Isobel, of course. :ussr:).

And Slade is probably destined for Waller's Suicide Squad. I'll be very surprised if she doesn't try to recruit him after Oliver wrecks his poo poo.

I don't know, I watch the show online so I don't get previews. At the speed this show goes, though, I wouldn't be all that surprised if this season ended with Ollie shooting Darkseid in the face and ripping open a portal to the Marvel universe.

Here's a non-spoilery quote from that interview:

quote:

I want Ra’s al Ghul on the show. Let me clarify something about the pronunciation of Ra’s al Ghul. Because Nyssa in the most recent episode says Raysh, but its been established prior by people in Starling city saying its Razz. So I needed to follow suit despite mild protestations made by me. It would be fantastic to see that character on the show. We certainly name dropped him… a lot

He wanted to pronounce it right but continuity :argh:

More like Ollie would be sent through time by Darkseid. Darkseid is then beat by Diggle singing.

It is pronounced Razz. Or at least that is closer to the correct Arabic pronunciation. BTAS was wrong.

The pronunciation of Ra's al Ghul's name is one of those arguments that'll never die. That said, gently caress continuity, have everyone say it a little different, and even nod to the argument by having the characters argue among themselves!

Dammit, this is the whole Fookoh, Fookalt pronunciation bullshit for Foucalt (it's the former) again.


It's pronounced Raysh by Americans who think they are well read/traveled, but aren't, or or people who know how to speak Hebrew. It's Ray-us (Rah-us?) by people who know how to speak Arabic, or like to pronounce foreign words phonetically.

You could say whatever you want when you read it on paper, or out loud so long as people can contextually understand you.

Denny O'Neil most likely wanted the Arabic pronunciation, because he modeled Ra's off of Arabic dudes, but messed up the sound of it, way back when because he's an American. No biggie. Or the TAS messed up for the same reason, I don't know. Whatever. The creator gets to decide how to pronounce it, ultimately, even if it's otherwise incorrect.
