  1. I mean…not yet. But for a $20 up charge, I’m listening…

    Didn’t make this, got it at a restaurant that is kinda my thing platonic ideal for a basic seafood gumbo. We went down to the coast to lay my parents to rest in the Gulf. In the 2.5 days we were there, we ate three times at a very nondescript joint, located in a building that was once a Pizza Hut, that has been a family favorite for around 20 years: Lake Jackson Seafood. One of their standard “specials” is a big bowl of seafood gumbo and two fried fish filets. And yes, the pro move is to break up at least one of the filets and put the pieces on top. The whole deal sets you back around $16. And it tastes like happiness.
  3. Yep, I bought this (and another like it) at auction when they were demolishing the FEC. I did so as a grand romantic gesture for my wife, as our first kiss was at a concert there. Alas, in my angst to make sure I got what I was bidding on, I bid on TWO identical sets. We have managed to find a use for all the other tables except this one. So, would love to put it in the hands of another longhorn fan. It's original to the FEC, so it's used with a ding and knock here and there, but a solid and pretty granite top. Size is approx 2x4 feet (on an oval, not a square obviously). For $40, it's yours. DM me, reply, as you wish.
  4. 1) What is the anticipated profit margin on said plan? 2) How much of said profit will end up in the hands of the Trump regime/insiders?
  5. She actually showed up in the Ukraine thread on Nov 1st, as their joint Halloween costumes were "pilots who hate Russia":
  6. My son is all about that. He is an evangelist for the awesomeness of Georgian food, likes to cook it at home, etc. He has made some dishes here, and it indeed has been outstanding. Full disclosure: he is presently entangled in a situationship with a pretty hot Georgian/German chick, so his cuisine rating may be subject to some undue influence.
  7. Upon finding out that Venezuelan females were killed, Drumpf's sole words of angst for the actions of our troops would just be an exact quote from Heathers: "Jesus God in Heaven, why'd you have to kill such hot snatch?"
  8. The fact that we are living Reese's words of warning from Terminator bring me zero comfort: "It can't be reasoned with. It doesn't feel pity, or remorse, or fear. And it absolutely will not stop... ever, until you are dead!" We humans are very, very, very good at creating killing machines. Instead of pausing to consider "so....MAYBE we shouldn't keep creating scenarios where 'create better killing machines' is the only rational response," we just keep on keeping on. Layer in a psychopathic, religious devotion to "AI" with 100% emphasis on profits and power, and 0% emphasis on humanity or ethics.....well....
  9. Not bad, if you're inuit. Get it? See what I did there? Fucking philistines, I cast comedic genius before you, and you just turn back to your screen to watch another episode of OW! MY BALLS!
  10. Oh, and definitely quoting for emphasis. When oil was in the $90-100 class, the flow of cash into Venezula was fucking firehose-level, turned up to 11. ANYONE could hand out prosperity in those conditions. It reminded me a LOT of Bill Clements and the shit he said in the race for his second term. It was all about how much more prosperous Texas was during his first term (79-83) than during Mark White's term (83-87). Well no shit, Sherlock. Clements took office right as oil prices fucking DOUBLED (thanks, Iranian revolution). A lobotomized monitor lizard could have been governor then and Texas would have still been swimming in money, and said lizard could stand at the podium and say "See, I'm the best governor ever!" Whereas under Mark White, we had a crash, where oil prices dropped nearly 50%. Again, Jesus Christ and Milton Friedman and Gordon Gecko could have been joint governors, and a state budget built on oil prices being twice what they ended up being would have been shitty. So, Chavez built a system and program that he could preach as a great socialist success.....when oil prices were insane. When they leveled out, it inevitably fell apart. He coulda used some Joseph and the Technicolor Dreamcoat thinking and husbanded the cash that was pouring in, but where is the glory (and family/elites enrichment) in that? It's okay, though. I'm sure that the incoming TrumpCo. regime will be wise stewards of Venezuela's resources, will use them to benefit the Venezuelan people, and will not just funnel them off to a small crowd of insiders and family members.
  11. When my folks lived in Argentina, my mother traveled with several of those mini tabasco sauce bottles in her purse at all times. They really did enjoy the food down there, but definitely lamented that the south americans just don't do "spice." Shit, too much black pepper in a dish, and the locals were sweating.
  12. As I mentioned above, populist authoritarianism is populist authoritarianism. The difference between “left” or “right” is insignificant. Our country is cheering on what we just took out.
  13. This. There are two reasons for the regime not to pay attention to politics: 1) They are stupid. 2) Politics doesn’t matter, because the support of the people/voters is simply irrelevant. The regime has power, and will never be giving it up. In this case, it’s option 2, although option 1 is also true. Imagine how a right wing authoritarian regime intent on having power for all time would act, and it’s how this regime acts. Believe what you are seeing.
  14. Agreed 100%, including as to the southern dishes that are indeed excellent. It’s amazing how mid some of that food is. You never have to worry about that happening. You can keep it all to yourself.
