I've always wanted to ask one of these assholes, "So if I have a meeting scheduled immediately after yours, should I leave your meeting early?" But you know it's only narcissistic assholes who think like this, so they'll make some bullshit argument about how their meeting is more important or some poo poo.

you can order sodium citrate online and then you can turn any cheese into velveeta. fun but very confusing to do with nice cheeses

Been there, done that! It really does wonders for mac and cheese, or cheese sauces. I like using an extra sharp Cheddar, grate it up, and use milk or evaporated milk (NOT sweetened Condensed milk!), and a bit of the citrate.

The end consistency depends on your liquid/cheese ratio. You can end up with anything from real American cheese texture to Velveeta texture to a cheez whiz consistency. The last is great for home made cheese steaks!

It works by the citrate binding to any free calcium. This prevents the casein in the cheese from knotting up and allows it to stay emulsified. And it's just a salt of citric acid, so if you've ever had sodium chloride and citrus together, you've had some.

Anyone who says you are late if you arrive 10 minutes early is just bad at managing their own schedule and was hoping to bring you in early to accommodate them.

I remember seeing some food youtuber or other make a Mountain Dew cheese dip and being surprised at how well it came out (texture-wise, not flavor). Then someone pointed out that the soda also has some citrate in it that functions the same way, apparently you can just make smooth, melty Mountain Dew cheese sauces all day long if you really want to.

Please don't forget that I am an extremely racist idiot who also has terrible opinions about the Culture series.
If you're using the sodium citrate method, you don't even need and milk or other dairy, just the cheese and a bit of water. You can even make cheese sauce out of cheese that are normally lousy at melting. It's really the way to go.

I had something somewhat similar happen. I had a paper due for a class in 11th grade by a particular date. I handed it in to the (long-term substitute) teacher on that date before the end of the school day. He told me that, despite it being handed in by the due date, it wasn't handed in before the end of MY particular class time that day so he flunked me in that class for the entire school year because of it. Simultaneously, I was having clashes with my AP Chemistry teacher so I filed with the school to transfer to another science teacher. They approved. The next day, I went into her class after the school had given her the transfer paperwork. She called me up in front of the class, started screaming at me for trying to get out of her classroom, ordered me out of the room, and also flunked me for the entire year because of it. My parents, absolutely livid, called a meeting with the principal and other school admin members and let loose on them about their incompetent, vengeful, immature piece of poo poo teachers. The school said they "have to stand behind the teachers' decisions" so my parents said ok then we're pulling him out of your dumbass school run by vindictive, pussy-rear end imbeciles.

gently caress that place and gently caress those teachers. I still can't believe the school stood behind my science teacher flunking me for the year because she was pissed off that I got approved to transfer to another science classroom.

in the fifth grade we were learning some basic anatomy stuff. the teacher proudly declared to the class that deoxygenated blood was blue, like a smurf. having more or less grown up in a doctor’s office i knew that this was incorrect so i politely informed the teacher that she was wrong and explained how it really works. she flipped her poo poo, then at her insistence the school sent me to be tested to see if i should be in special ed

i had never scored less than a 98 on a test in my entire school career up until then; i was in the gifted program (well, what counted as a gifted program in that godawful part of the south at that time); and the school just listened to her

My senior year of high school I was in drama class and we got extra points for wearing a costume on Halloween.

I wore an off the shelf packaged pirate costume, complete with eye patch and head scarf. No weapon.
I walked into drafting class and my drafting teacher immediately sent me to the office for wearing “gang apparel” because I had a “gang bandana” on my head.

I told the office lady what happened and she just shook her head acknowledging how big of an obtuse rear end in a top hat that teacher was.

I went to 200 person high school in the middle of a corn field in bfe Nebraska.

I remember the Charlie Brown Encyclopedia talking about how deoxygenated blood is blue.

In high school biology we did an experiment to test the tongue map theory. Mine was marked wrong because my experimental data didn't match up with what was in the textbook.

One of the final portfolios my students have to produce takes a good couple of weeks to put together, they get two weeks, then they have a final cleanup week.
I make it very clear that the portfolio is due before midday on the Friday of the last week, barring things like a family or medical emergency.

Without fail, every year, someone will come rocking in at about 3pm and lose their poo poo when I refuse to even accept it. To get to this stage they will have been emailed several times reminding them of the due date and time.

The joy I get from pointing out that part of the profile is job time estimation and the important of scheduling and communication as a subcontractor warms my old bitter heart

People without experience with Navy medicine probably won't recognize the scariest part of that blurb.

The best Navy flight surgeon I ever knew once told me "Navy flight surgeons are the absolute last people you should go to for medical advice. We're not qualified to deal with anything more serious than a stubbed toe or common cold."

A lot of this guy's books are on Amazon. There's books on raw milk, AIDS, alternative meds and other poo poo. Seems the common theme is "What the govt. and big pharm isn't telling you" and similar bullshit. Then there's a book about Russian Light Therapy or some poo poo.
