Chris can at least enjoy the defense that he believed his promises when he made them; they seemed reasonable to him at the time.

It's a free fly weekend, Ben hates trolls, Lando is flying somewhere, presumably to stash money. Sandi might have interviewed Gillian Anderson, and the tide has finally turned against CIG within the community due to their latest debacle in handling the cancellation of Star Marine.

I always get banned a few times in the twitch streams for asking, "What's Chris working on this week?" Like that's some kind of grave sin, to wonder whether he's working on MoCap or just sitting around drinking coffee all day or what.

Sandi talks about budgeting for Gamescom.

"And I have to budget flying 5 people overseas. 4 of them in Economy, one of them First Class..."

well this makes me think differently about Hennessy's RtV aside about Sandi flying upstairs in the plane away from the rest of them...

Associate Justice Lena "Kegels" Dunham: An uncool thought to have: 'is that guy walking in the dark behind me a rapist? Never mind, he's Asian.

G0RF posted:

Reasons to listen:

Sandi played Doom from 6pm to 5am 5 days a week and had a gift for physics and math. She wonders what she could've been if she applied herself.

Offered scholarships for Ph.D study all over the world.

She is a Gemini which apparently has some significance to her because despite her aforementioned scientific gifts, she believes personality is determined by month of birth.

"I used to dress pretty loud."

"I was accepted as one of the youngest MBAs ever."

Stumbled trying to talk about her Master's Thesis on "International Marketing" for some weird reason.

"In Australia, women are super competitive. But that just wasn't my thing."

This may have the highest lie-per-phrase count of any interview Sandi has ever conducted. And that really is saying something.

"Chris coding. The guy is brilliant. It's pretty impressive."

She mentions her second thesis on "Marine Biology" fleetingly.

Sandi tells a story about Chris encouraging Sandi to not fly coach but to upgrade to better accommodations but she would not waste backer money.

I have to say, as cynical as I am about Sandi, sometimes the horror can still wash over me when I realize that's she's a real person. I can't believe someone can lie this often and this clumsily. She tells lies even over matters so trivial that she has literally nothing to gain by doing so. It is not calculated or tactical lying-- it truly is pathological. And though it makes for a comic character in a tv show (maybe), it's really just disquieting to listen to it.

And I'm just 30:00 in...

I like to think they have an internal wiki. A page for each poster with a list of crimes against CIG.

Perhaps a page of unanswered questions.


- What is shitposting???
- What is the meaning of the recipes? code?
- Ratio of cats to dogs posted means something. I know it. Find out!

Chicken tortilla. Here is a terrible photo and the incredibly-not-terrible recipe.



CHICKEN TORTILLA SOUP

1 2- to 3-pound roasting chicken
1 slice onion
1 or 2 cloves garlic, whole
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 small onion, chopped
1 or 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 or 2 small serranos, finely chopped and seeds removed
1 or 2 small jalapeños, finely chopped and seeds removed
1 3.5 ounce jar chipotle peppers in adobo, finely chopped
2 large or 4 small tomatoes, chopped
dash comino
2 limes, wedged
grated Cheddar or Mexican blend cheese
handful chopped cilantro
10 corn tortillas, sliced into strips 1/4 inch by 2 inches
1 or 2 avocados
vegetable oil for frying


Chop chicken in large chunks and place in a large pot with the slice of onion, whole cloves of garlic, salt to taste, and water to cover. Bring to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer, covered, about 2 hours or until chicken is falling off the bone. Drain, reserving broth. Separate chicken from bones. Discard bones; reserve chicken.

Place stock in large pot and bring to boil.

Heat olive oil in skillet. Cook onion till just tender; add garlic and cook 1 minute. Add serranos, jalapeños, and chipotles. Cook till just tender. Add to stock. Add tomatoes, chicken, and comino with salt to taste. Cook till tomatoes are just done.

Meanwhile, pour two inches of vegetable oil in saucepan. Deep fry tortilla strips in batches a few minutes till just golden. Remove and drain.

Pour soup into bowls. Garnish with cheese, cilantro, tortilla strips, lime wedges, and avocado wedges. Serve.

Makes 12 servings.
