Slugworth posted:You can cremate a large dog (private cremation) for a couple hundred bucks, so I can't imagine there's 500 dollars worth of natural gas use in cremating a person. It cost me less that $500 to fill my propane tank that lasts the house for over a year. I could definitely burn a body for that price. Maybe I need another side hustle.

Wingnut Ninja posted:I remember reading something a while back about a process where you get freeze dried, crushed into powder, and put in a pod that fertilizes a new tree. That seems like a pretty neat option, eco friendly, you get to give back to the community, and friends and family can come visit your tree. I'm almost positive it's not just from an Orson Scott Card book. I wanna be freeze dried, sliced, and released into the collectibles market.

aphid_licker posted:Is tannerite more freely available than TNT, black powder, ANFO and what is the reasoning behind that, respectively? Seems like 80 pounds of tannerite would make a pretty nasty car bomb. The catch is it's practically impossible to set it on fire to make it go boom, use electricity, etc. Unless you can dump a high velocity rifle round into it, it's not going off

What if we used tannerite to dispose of remains? If your entry to the world can be marked with an explosion that registers on seismographs and results in a mass casualty event and a wildfire, then your exit from the world should be marked the same way.

This is one of the tasks I legitimately miss about working in kitchens. Actually I enjoyed most prep work, but punching fries was always great because there's a technique and a physicality to it. Plus I'd get to carry around like, hundreds of pounds of potatoes from wherever dry storage was. It really appealed to my young meathead sensibilities. Most places I worked at used a press that was attached to the wall though, so you would punch downwards into buckets or busbins of water. You'd eventually get the technique and it would feel just like you're throwing the press right through the potato, it ruled. What didn't rule was occasionally finding a huge centipede in the boxes of potatoes. Mister Speaker fucked around with this message at 05:01 on Apr 24, 2021 |

Aren't fries normally parboiled first? Anyways given that the driving force is his own body weight and grip, it seems pretty low-occurrence to somehow mash your own hand in there. 1/10 OSHA needs more fryer explosions

Five guys fries are soggy because they're not par-fried (fried twice) it's a different experience, I grew up eating Dick's, so the fresh potatoes soaked and straight into oil is a method I'm used to, they taste a little more potato-y to me that way. I was also absolutely fascinated by the potato slicer dealy as a child.

I cut potatoes and put them in hot oil all the time. Not once have I ended up with a product as sorry as In‐N‐Out’s. They’ve put effort into making bad fries, and it’s baffling because there are really only two variables, temperature and time.

Ror posted:When I was 14 or so my best friend thought that the most badass funeral ever would be to just have an empty grave and no apparent casket anywhere. But then the crowd starts hearing the intro to "Down With the Sickness," getting louder and louder. Your body is actually in a helicopter far above the funeral and the release is timed so that you smash into the hole in the ground at terminal velocity directly between the "ooh-ah-ah-ah-ah" and the riff. I don't remember if the body is in a coffin or not. loving badass

You may just have lovely branches near you. The local ones near me have great non-soggy fries. Cajun Fries-4-Lyfe. 2.) Par-fried does not mean fried twice. Par is short for partial, and is a technique to cook something partially, for later packaging, and the completion of cooking later at the consumers convenience. With fries, it's just "fried twice", or "double fried". 3.) I'm sorry you had to grow up eating dicks. A paper-route would've been a much less demeaning way to earn money.

Ok, I'm sorry, they're cooked once, and then cooked a second time, don't know where the confusion came in there. Eating Dick's is great and everyone should do it it at least once. I've eaten at a few Five Guys and all their fries seem about the same? I too enjoy the cajun seasoning on them.

Yeah, I was loving stoked to go to Dicks when I went to Seattle a few years back. Then I broke my ankle literally 5 minutes after arriving. Had to drive myself back to Canada with the busted ankle to get dat free health care. Never got my lips around some of those Dicks. Shame.
