Top tip: create your own beach at home by filling your living room with breadcrumb "sand" and the brine from your old packs of mozzarella and sardines. My kids loved it and it didn't cost me a penny!

He made chili out of a million different ingredients and yet somehow he managed to not put in any actual chili. In fact he specifically says to throw out the only part that has any actual chili in it.

Truly the best part of his secret chili seasoning recipe, where instead of using the pre-mixed McCormick brand seasoning packet, you buy a bunch of jars of McCormick brand seasoning and then make almost literally the exact same mix yourself.

It's this really dumb pseudo-elitism where a packet of mixed seasoning is somehow no good but canned vegetables are.

I really hate people who talk in hip internet lingo like they're on Epic Meal Time or some other dumb bullshit when it comes to cooking things. Just tell me how to cook the loving thing, I don't need you telling me how FUCKIN A-TO-THE-MAZEBALLS putting something in a bowl and stirring it for x amount of time is.

Using drones to only scan one of many possible pockets instead of being thorough or just getting the information straight from the banks themselves (which the New World Order Lizard Illuminati also controls, and why you should join a credit union) is exactly the kind of oversight I could believe from a secret global power with infinite resources and influence.

There's a book by Peter Straub where that's the favourite crafting hobby of an abusive and religiously insane old woman. Not saying anything but for the last 15 years it was the only time I'd ever come across the idea, until now.

Strudel Man posted:Chili peppers come to mind. Well right, that was my point. I was genuinely curious as to what they thought the magic ingredient might be that made chili chili, if it wasn't chili pepper (or cumin, or garlic, or any of the other things that insufferable twit included in his green bean chili).

And since it'd be such a pain in the rear end to roll back from your desk every time you need to use the bathroom, just piss in the box yourself as well!

This was staged, apparently for Saturday Night Live, but Brian Wilson really did have a sandbox in his home and had his piano in it. He thinks the song Surf's Up was written in it.

dovetaile posted:Lifehack: too cheap to buy litter/litter box? Just use a sandbox! Confession time: My house is in the middle of a hill, and the neighbor's yard has no erosion protection--no retaining walls or the like. So long before I even bought the place her yard was already filling in my drive way and the pavement in the back. I had a lot of excess sand to deal with. I'm also chronically poor and thought I would get by with using the sand in the litter box to save on litter for a month. Bottom line? It's not worth it.

This recipe makes you cringe right out of the gate. And in the end it looks like what happens after a dog eats a box of crayons. Did you know Bisquick, a mix designed to make baking a brain dead and forgiving task, can create biscuits and you can SEASON those biscuits?

To be fair though, that probably is the same recipe Red Lobster uses. Though I would be kind of surprised that cheddar bay biscuits wouldn't use Old Bay, especially at Red Lobster.

1/8th of a teaspoon of salt? At that stage why even bother, it's practically a homeopathic dose. EDIT: Especially compared to the 1/2 cup of (salted) butter.

"Mix until as firm as your resolve" So, mix it a little bit, then don't finish mixing, then get depressed for a few days? How will that result in delicious biscuits?

Selklubber posted:Do this extremely smug way of writing recipies count? Lost my respect with green beans and corn. I could go either way on the great bean debate, but neither of those belong in chili. Also, only using ground beef. Basically, everything other than saying to not use the spice packet is terrible. Except, his spice mixture is terrible and probably even blander than the spice packet he threw out. 1 tablespoon of pepper, way to walk on the wild side there. He uses twice as much loving flour in his spice mixture as he does peppers
