No. Obesity is a hallmark of poverty. gently caress looking poor, put the effort into maintaining your body and status.

I'd say that's fair. Doughy with serious muscle underneath, though, as I do martial arts training on the reg.

I'm your typical white "skinny guy with a large belly." You know, it's hard to keep pants in place without a belt, and I'm not willing to go full bracers.

I wasn't going to post this but microwave+eggchat means I will:

If you learn your microwave really well you can make 100% authentic and awesome (artery-blocking) hollandaise sauce in a microwave. You melt a stick of butter on low so it doesn't get super-hot. Separate three egg yolks and beat them. Whisk together and heat maybe 45 seconds. Whisk. Then, give it 5-10 seconds at a time, whisking in between, and watch carefully. If you can get it to the point where it's almost showing water vapor steaming off, it should thicken up nicely. Season with the juice of 1/2 to 1 lemon and some pepper (white is fine, but I prefer fresh-cracked black) and voila.

Meanwhile you've got english muffins in the toaster, canadian bacon on your griddle, and eggs poaching gently in a pot.

Assemble your Eggs Benedict, top with fresh choppped parsley and a sprinkle of smoked paprika. It's unbelievably rich and delicious, with the salt from the pork, the crunch from the muffin, the savory eggs, and the rich sauce. You made it fresh just now, so you don't have to worry about the restaurant killing you with their hollandaise bacteria soup.

Caveat: You might have a heart attack very soon. For special occasions only.

Sadly, though I wanted to show off and make this for my girlfriend, she hates runny eggs. I can't decide if it's ok to poach eggs to a hard yolk. It feels wrong.

It's the plot to one of the segments in the Twilight Zone movie. Some racist jerk gets ported back to the French occupation, gets perceived as a Jew, and is shot at by Nazis. Then John Landis kills a couple kids with a helicopter.
