Round is a shape. :colbert:

That said, when I was baking I was running my rear end off. If if wasn't for a thousand calories worth of alcohol a day, I'd have dropped weight like crazy from doing 6 overnights a week and running up and down stairs with boxes.

Actually just having a job that's labor-intensive and only having one night off a week has me gradually getting in the best shape of my life. That and I know how much I drink every night so generally a big balanced breakfast and various tasting/grazing throughout the shift keeps me from being hungry and as BOD said I'm beat by the end of the night. I walk to and from work but it's <10 min walk. About 5 minutes of yoga later I'm feeling fine and ready to drink.

Also being high all day on my days off helps. Don't ask me how, exactly. Something about recuperative properties of weed smoking.

Yeah, basically staying in shape (at least back of house) is a function more of not drinking so loving much than it is doing extra exercise.

Yeah but, what am I supposed to replace the 4-5 shots of liquor with?

E: I also only drink liquor, and I don't do soda mixers. Usually lime or unsweetened tea. My problem was that I never met a cheesecake I didn't want to put my dick in loving shovel into my face.

I do notice a distinct doughiness that leaves after a week of laying off the sauce though.

took another drink.

if only there was an intoxicant which got you to a similar place, but better, and didn't have such metabolic bullshit attached!!

Sliders are the stupidest loving things. "Here's tiny little flat meatballs that are not only going to be dry, but also cold!"

In #work news, I thought I'd someday be busted for sneaking Cristal, but in reality the conversation (in general) was more like "wait, why is all this Cristal still here, why is nobody using this?"

I used to go to a place that had like 30 different burgers and you could mix and match sliders of different kinds,so it was nice to be able to try several burgers but in tiny portions. Now I work at the restaurant and they stopped doing them before I was hired, so I can't use my employee discount to get weird variety packs of tiny burgers.

Parmesan isn't a protected name in the United States like it is in Italy, so it's entirely possible that they're using non-rennet fake parm.

They either aren't pronounced the same or I've been saying Russia-Moscow wrong my entire life. (Family lives in Lewiston, just south.)

In thread-related funtime news at Green Apron Coffee Co., apparently after new year's our goals are going to change to 100% of orders including a food item. Really looking forward to convincing people to spend $7 on two pieces of lovely rubber-bread with a dream of chicken between them instead of going to the actual sandwich place next door and getting a sub the size of their arm for a dollar less. What gets into corporate people?

I saw that Arby's has sliders now and, frankly, :gonk:

On the second of two consecutive days off for the first time since (I think) April and I'm feeling fine like wine. Still don't feel like day drinking but that's something I've never done. I'm not above getting drunk every night but that's the line for me, I guess.
