  • Wasn't this the basis of WWII?

  • Isn't that just the modern American news media landscape?

  • Can I come too? Do you have room for uninvited guests? I won't talk to anyone or bother anyone .... I'll just eat :)

  • Once you do enough cooking, you start to realize that most recipes can be rendered down to a few basic components and combinations .... and it all depends on what region of the world you're in, what culture, what foods are available and what you grew up with.

    Cooking, preparing, cutting and serving a turkey/chicken is fairly simple if you stick to just the basics ... and use a digital thermometer to monitor the internal temperatures

    Gravy is a bit of a trick but do it enough times and you get the hang of it .... if all else fails, have a packet of instant gravy mix handy (it makes gravy in about ten minutes)

    Everything else with the Thanksgiving dinner is basically just boiled vegetables ... if you plan on anything more complicated than this, then you are spending the entire day in the kitchen.

    Dessert can be very simple or very complicated ... depending on how masochistic you want to be ... but it's best to prepare the sweet stuff a day or two ahead of time.

    Whatever you do ... stay in the kitchen and pay attention to everything that is cooking, baking, frying or boiling ... if it's roasting for hours, stay nearby and be ready to act on it if anything changes or goes bad ... in your off time when nothing needs to be done in the kitchen, wash the dishes and clean the space, because you'll be making a mess again as soon as you start processing food again anyway.

    If you're not cooking, you're cleaning. If you're not cleaning, you're cooking.

  • On those days that the world just hates you .... stay in bed until the next day.

  • My favourite ... which is actually very common ... is some nutjob speeding up behind me, tailgating to try to pass in the most improbable places, solid lanes, etc but doing so without success. Watching them in the mirror close enough for me see how frustrated they are and waving their hands.

    After several minutes or even half an hour of following you ... they finally pass.

    Then immediately turn off in front of you because they reached their turn off / parking lot / restaurant / gas station / place of work.

    Years ago, I'd try to avoid people like this by slowing down or even dipping at low speed onto the shoulder to let them pass .... but it seldom works because they are just driving down the highway / freeway / roadway for a short distance to take their turn off.

    So now, I really don't care, I keep my speed, don't let them affect my driving and keep a close eye on them ... and sure enough, they disappear because they took their turn off.

  • When I see or meet anyone on the road that does anything stupid .... I avoid them like the plague.

    I'm not sticking around to see if the other guy/gal is going to lose it and do something stupid that will either cause a minor accident ... or kill someone.

  • Me looking at the mirror at myself while having a lengthy conversation in my head about what I need to cook for dinner tonight.

  • I'm not hoping for it .... America has a habit of being dumb as a brick and electing people that eat crayons.

  • We elected an imbecile

    You're only just figuring that out now?

    It's like saying your house may have caught fire while standing in front of the building engulfed in flames.
