I feel like microwaving potatoes and ketchup for an hour would produce something more suited to removing Huns from your castle walls.

pretty sure using a microwave for 55 minutes would signal to aliens that we are technologically advanced enough for intergalactic war.

The heat and built up steam pressure would carbonize and then turn to diamond the original 'food'. You could then sell the potato diamonds for real food.

That sound somehow worse than the college soup my father told me about made from stolen fast-food ketchup packets and hot water.

Barefoot and uphill both ways :p My grandad used to add in about how he also had to go home at lunch to feed/water the cows AND clean the horse stalls...and had to make it back before class started up again. I miss his stories about how hard it was back in the day

She's got clinicals for her advanced EMT cert tomorrow (she is a certified EMT already), but I'm sure she could talk to you on Sunday or something if that works for you. Yes, please. That'd be perfect. <3 Featured Creature posted:Would medical researchers count? My brother and sister-in-law have PHDs in biochemistry and molecular biology, respectively. They both have done cancer research (SIL still is), and she has been all over the world to run medical workshops for post doc research. They are moving to Germany in the next few weeks, so I don't know if they will have the time but if you can use them it can't hurt to ask. Yes, for sure. Yes yes yes.

So, today I split a tooth in half while eating some goat curry. It was the tiniest sliver of bone, too. I had put some meat on a piece of naan, and I had squeezed each piece carefully to check for bones, but obviously I missed a piece. Every time I've ever accidentally bitten down on bone it felt like my tooth had shattered, so this time when it actually happened, I didn't really believe it... until I found the huge chunk of tooth on my plate. I was with GoWithChrist, and she started totally freaking out. Apparently, she has nightmares about teeth breaking all the time? She was also upset that I nooged the owner for a free meal.

No Wave posted:That is kinda lame. It's goat curry, what are they supposed to do, it always has bones in it. Well, first of all, I've never asked for a free meal in my life, so it's not like something I regularly do. The owner was paranoid that I was going to sue him, so in my mind I was setting him at ease. I said to him "I really like your restaurant, and I'm going to keep eating here, but could you please comp this meal?", and that seemed like a great relief to him. Hell, I'll give them a free plug here, because I think they have some of the best Indian food in the entire Boston area (no mean feat): http://www.yelp.com/biz/sher-a-punjab-quincy mindphlux posted:jesus christ what is your mouth jane fonda or something? Ok, really struggling to get the reference here.... My mouth looks good riding a tank? Vietnam Vets are still upset with my mouth 40 years later? My mouth married Ted Turner? My mouth was briefly a exercise guru in the 1980s? People forget that my mouth was an actress once? My mouth looks terrible with short hair?

Their food injured someone. Since that's not exactly the desired outcome of eating at their restaurant, a free meal is kind of a no-brainer from a customer service standpoint.

When I was in New England this fall, I was chewing a piece of gum after eating a shitload of roasted garlic and buffalo mozzarella on a burger at one of my favorite places to eat when I'm back home. Damned filling came out and I crunched down on it. That poo poo sucked. I had to pack the hole with some temporary filling stuff I got at CVS and had to wait like five days til I could get back to my dentist back in Iowa to get it fixed. I was stuck chewing with one side for the better part of a week, including at a wedding. Pretty lovely.

I apologize if this was some other goon, but is this the same place where the "Great Food" had metal shavings/iron filings/a big loving bolt or other piece of hardware in it?

I think I was the goon you're referring to, so not the same place. My office moved recently so we have a new Indian spot that's not as tasty, but also no metal so far.

I am in Miami for the next week or so. My hotel is right by the Rickenbacker Causeway and is seemingly devoid of restaurants. There is a little entertainment district like a mile away but it seems to be high end sitdown places or random chains. If anyone knows of anything causal and interesting around here I would love you forever.

Generally speaking, we're happy (thrilled, even) to oblige. Ordering mezcal communicates that you're interested in bold flavors and not just hamburgers. Also you get to drink mezcal, which is awesome. And the Broken Shaker rules.

Vegetable Melange posted:10: Goto Broken Shaker Yeah, that place is on my list to check out, but gently caress driving in this city. It is like rush hour always and everywhere here. I have found a bunch of good places, but what I really want is hole in the wall places I can walk too. I have been asking everyone I meet but I am getting the feeling my hotel is in a wasteland. My poor little per diem is getting murdered down here eating most my meals on the key.

I just saw an advert for some Birds Eye vegetables. Prechopped fajita mix. How loving lazy do you have to be not to be able to chop up a pepper and an onion. I mean, Jesus loving Christ, that takes two or three minutes.

You also have to have fresh peppers and onions on hand. I would guess that their target audience has more trouble with that than cutting things.

The best mashed potatoes leave the skin in. I score the potato skin like a checkerboard before I boil them so it breaks up easier when mashing.
