Chris Kattan is probably my least favorite SNL cast member.

Edit: of the ones that had any staying power. Tons of cast members bomb in their first season and get quietly fired.

Wow, after looking up Chris Kattan characters he is pretty loving grim. Per SNL.fandom.com (my home page):

Azrael Abyss
Brian
Buddy Mills
Doug Butabi
Gator
Gay Hitler
Josh Zimmerman
Kyle DeMarco
Mango
Mr. Peepers
Samm
Suel Forrester

I would have been able to name 2.5 of those (counting Doug Butabi as half for being "one of the Roxbury guys"), and only remember Gay Hitler in addition to those.

otoh Jimmy Fallon actively detracted from things, and will forever be the WOAT.

Yeah honestly, I get the feeling she feels like she has to defend the purchase. It's a bad time in the world and I wouldn't want to feel judged for having some emergency rations. Then again I super don't know Dr. Girlfriend and have been just picturing the Venture Bros. Character whenever General Dog refers to her.

We’ve been dating for a while, but I think we’re still at a phase where there are eccentricities on both sides that have yet to be uncovered. I haven’t demeaned her for any purchases in the past, and I didn’t for this one. I imagine it’s a case where she knows the stereotypes about prepping and just may not have wanted to have a conversation about it at that exact moment.

It’s probably not a bad investment of a few hundred dollars for someone who has it to spare, having seen the stress test that the relatively tame events of the last two years have put on the supply chain.

It is important to avoid confusion. This is the one that's okay to lick.


It's a good idea to keep 48-72 hours (or as long as the worst case for disaster response getting to you) of supplies on hand if you live anywhere there could be a natural disaster. Having a disaster plan in place is a good idea.

Stockpiling ammo in case of Jade Helm putting FEMA camps in Wal-Marts is less of a good idea and more of a warning.

Right that sounds about what I'd expect! I think she's concerned about the appearance of prepping especially w/ hucksters really getting into the field. I wouldn't be too concerned because it doesn't seem like it's a communication issue

If you’re having a nice weekend and would prefer to feel like your heart has been ripped from your chest instead, might I suggest watching Torn? It is exceptionally well done imo, but it gets very heavy around the halfway point. We’ve actually been blessed with a surplus of climbing movies that have hit the mainstream recently, which is pretty cool, but this is the first one I can think of that so directly confronts the loss that that just pervades the sport.

I keep a few extra things now. I have a fully stocked first aid kit in my house, but I also have a smaller one in a ruck sack with some other... stuff just in case. I've been through floods and bush fires and now a pandemic in the last ten years. I don't think there's anything wrong with spending a couple hundred bucks to make sure you can be safe and comfortable for a few days if the worst happens. I wouldn't take it as a bad sign she didn't immediately announce it to you either.

On the other hand, there's a ton of "prepper supply" companies out there selling dried beans and instant mac & cheese pouches at a horrendous markup, and a lot of what they sell has a 10 year or less shelf life so eventually you have to eat it or throw it out. If Dr. Girlfriend is shopping from the back of Guns & Ammo Magazine, she's making poor purchasing decisions.

You can go to a decent grocery store and buy sacks of rice and dry beans etc. and store them in sealed containers for just as long, at a fraction of the prices those places charge.

I really shared this as a humorous anecdote more than out of any real concern. She got like four tubs of dehydrated food; if she gets a shipping container for more then we probably need to have a talk.

Unless for some reason you want a bunch of MRE’s, you should def just buy all your supplies at the grocery store. If I didn’t care about taking of the space, I’d go buy one of those giant sacks of rice. Really should just try and get a restaurant supply hookup.

TBH buying stuff you can use to make food in bulk and good containers is just a good idea in general. I have a bunch of rice and flour that I got in bulk from a kitchen supply place and it's been kind of a godsend while I don't have an income. Only things I'm buying at the moment are fresh veggies, eggs and meat. I'm spending less than a third of what I used to on groceries because I have a little time to do the added step of - make a dough and let proof for 24 hours if I want bread. Baking goes from being moderately difficult to really loving easy once you buy food scales and move from volumetric measurements to weighted ones.

The song popped into my head immediately upon reading General Dog's post so I just started googling and realized very few people have made the joke connection to a nearly 30 year old cartoon.

Also if you start hitting up instagram and pinterest for prepper stuff, and start visiting the urls that pop up boy oh boy will your browser's antivirus start screaming at you. Prepperessentials.org? how can I go wrong!

Mormons are supposed to keep a 2 year stockpile of basic canned and dry goods that should be rotated constantly, but that's also from the days when they were trying to eke out an existence in Deseret before they made reservoirs and canals to farm the available arable land around Great Salt Lake. They have a prepper mindset from the days when their religion was constantly on the move, and that when they found a place to stay it was really hard to stockpile goods so when a good year happened they hoarded the poo poo out of it.

And we got to go out to the family section on the course at the 16th hole. One of the most surreal experiences ever.
