VAPA is back y'all

[Gil Bang 26099]

The dude that used to post here that was really paranoid about cops...had a dozen cameras on and in his car that uploaded to the cloud, etc.

 

He's back, with a new handle

I believe that the current rule of thumb is that law enforcement can force you to unlock it with a face ID or fingerprint because those are immutable physical characteristics and not speech, but that they can't compel you to divulge or enter a PIN. 

But I don't follow this very closely, and of course, the mere fact that something is unconstitutional has never been a perfectly effective defense or deterrent when dealing with pissant cops. 

I bet that whatshisname with the bulletproof and soundproof and x-ray proof and invisible Mitsubishi Eclipse that part of the crowd ran out of here for no really good reason a few years ago could probably answer a lot questions on this topic.

That was VAPA IIRC, and yeah, I too thought he was a paranoid nut.

 

I don't think that anymore.  I think the dude was on to something.

Am I the only person feeling hot and cold in here?

[elfenix 34385]

is this the new shit on blast thread?

[NomadicHorn 11]

I think it's the thread for saying one thing and then saying the opposite four hours later?

I used to hate brussel sprouts as a kid, but now I like them.

I'll wait four hours and then claim I still don't like them.

Gil Bang, please let me know if I'm doing it wrong.

Yeah, I said it.  I don't know if they taste worse than they smell or smell worse than they taste.

Sounds like you've never had well prepared brussels sprouts - halved and tossed with balsamic, olive oil, garlic, salt and pepper and then air fried or oven roasted is fuckin goooooood

[Hanrahan 1306]

The brussel sprouts you had as a kid are not the same ones bouncing around today. They’ve GMO’d better taste into them.

[Nivek 17038]

Got my kids eating them too.

That’s exactly how I’ve had the prepared and they still taste and smell awful. My wife and son love them, but they taste very bitter and metallic to me. And they stink up the house.

Does cilantro taste like soap to you?

[Hate 20157]

No, I love cilantro. I’m from SA, ese.

Brussels sprouts are amazing when done properly - because they end up tasting…nothing like brussel sprouts.  
 

edit: when done properly they have loads of bacon in ‘em too

Bacon is the key.

if you've had the sprouts from uchi and still don't like sprouts then there's nothing else to be done.

You're in luck. People sensitive to the bitterness of vegetables are apparently less susceptible to COVID.

So I’ve that going for me, which is nice.

Brussels Sprouts talk in the VAPA thread not going away.

[ROFL BOX 6649]

That's because brussels sprouts taste like shit.

Not "are the shit", TASTE like shit.

[Gatorubet 30405]

I blanch for 5 minutes in boiling water before grilling.

Sprouts, not VAPA, I mean.

That's how my wife makes them.  But I'm so traumatized by 1970s vintage Brussel sprouts I'm not gonna try them.

I didn’t think it was possible to make brussel sprouts sound any more disgusting, but somehow you pulled it off.

You can say what you want about Kale, but you start badmouthing brussel sprouts and we got a problem..... especially if they're roasted with bacon.

Based on your opinion about everything else then this means I am absolutely 100% correct.

Thanks for the confirmation.

That we son't agree on most things makes me happy, and tells me I'm correct.
