    So how do you feel about the whole Charlie Kirk divide?

    Jump

  • No, it was purely by choice in a well-marked post.

  • I'm scared about the blowback.

    It was inevitable that eventually somebody would 'fight back' somehow.

    Now we have to deal with how all the idiots act, react and overreact.

    It won't be pretty, but again, it was inevitable.

    The day of, when it happened, I watched the video... and then had to literally touch grass, walk it off, get some fresh air.

    Wife got home, wanted to see it, had the same reaction.

    I just don't like watching people die, no matter who it is. But now and then I gaze into the void deliberately.

  • What was a time when your joke landed with perfect comedic timing?

    Jump

  • I was at a restaurant with my wife's family - lots of kids.

    This place was in a fairly rural area and there were chickens pecking around outside.

    While eating one of the kids says "A chicken just crossed the road!"

    No hesitation at all I yell "WHY?!?"

    The fight is on. How redistricting could unfold in 8 entangled states

  • Unfortunately there is no way to do this by the legal system.

    Any blue state running afoul of its own laws will result in their appointments being denied.

    Rules no longer matter and this next 'election' will not solve that.

    I truly hope that I am wrong.

  • When you make toast with peanut butter do you butter the toast first?

    Jump

  • I will occasionally butter one piece, peanut butter the other, and have a truly decadent toasted peanut butter sandwich.

    This guy was clearly not all that bright. But he is hilarious, unintentionally.

  • Cast Iron Pizza

    Jump

  • Surprisingly thin, I'll compare next time.

    I'd always used half the dough recipe per pizza, so couldn't get them that thin until now.

  • Dough recipe is here:

    https://www.gimmesomeoven.com/no-knead-bread/

    One pizza uses a third of the dough.

    I added 1 tablespoon diastatic malt powder, two tablespoons olive oil, garlic, and Italian seasoning to the dough.

    Plenty of olive oil in the pan so that the crust will fry well.

    On the dough, red pepper flakes, italian seasoning, parmesan, then generic jarred pizza sauce, mozz, pepperoni, and finally cheddar.

    Baked at 550F for 15 minutes.

    It may be the best pizza I've ever had, certainly the best I've made.

    Be careful tearing down a system, you might need to live through the results of your actions.

  • Yeah, anything that has you speaking in game jargon in public should qualify.

    One of my friends at a pizza place a few years ago: "I can't believe I didn't get to poison anyone last night."

    Me: "Dude, context! We are in public!"

  • What old technology are you surprised is still in use today?

    Jump

  • Fax machines!

    They were invented long before the computer or modem, with the original patent being issued in 1843.

    They seem wildly outdated, but the ability to replicate the signature (iirc) led to faxes being accepted as legal documents.

    This speaks more to the underlying usefulness in earlier eras, but it's still wild to make a phone call that leads to a printed document.

  • A peacock's tail is a flourish, something that adds to the whole without detracting.

    A cocktail combines spirits with other flavors to make them something else.

    I don't really drink cocktails, but thr antiquated term makes sense in a particular context.

    Now looking it up, apparently the origin of the term isn't actually known and my interpretation isn't even in the running, but I'm saving this anyway because it's amusing.
