I love having my Flickr account finally restored, sorted, et cetera after they royally cocked it up for me. Long story, not interesting.
But it's totally back and tagged and sorted and everything.
Delightful.
A TOAST!!!

I did a bad, bad thing...
See, it was all fine. Delightful, in fact. My little Meant-To-Shop-For-Groceries-Yesterday meal seemed like it was going to be delicious.
The chinese flat noodles had boiled and were being lightly sauteed with minced onion. Onto them I was ready to dump some ferociously scrambled eggs--with a bit of Cock Sauce and dijon mustard in 'em--and I had my heated can of beans all set, ready for me to extract legumes to deposit into the frying pan, in the...umm...interest of science?
HINT: Use a heavily slotted spoon to properly transfer beans from a saucepan to a sautee pan full of delicious food.
PROTIP: Do not use anything that could possibly transfer between 1/8 and 1/4 of a cup of hot bean juice into your meal.

The eggs lost their structural integrity faster than a drunken Enterprise at a party full of frat-Borg.
The noodles said "How about we just slide this wonderful egg coating off of us. Into a crumbly mound. Of greyish-brown things. Also, up yours."
The onions said "Marghaal blarghllll--" as they drowned in the filth of my meal.
TRUE FACT: It tasted like my butt.
"Oh, so you've tasted your butt?" I hear your inner 5th grader asking.
Yes.
Yes I have.
MORAL: Whiskey with meal, not while cooking it. And before cooking it. And for lunch.
Love,
benjamin |

I like when my fortune cookie encourages vivisection:

OI! PAY ATTENTION, YOU!
Click this:

Starving artists will appreciate it.
Remember: shill your stuff, but consider buying stuff as well.
Then, when you're done considering, elect to do so.

Ok, my beloved nerd friends, I have a question for you. Matt wants to go to the Clockwork Ball for New Years, but I have nothing appropriately steampunk to wear. Matt's offered to buy me some steampunk clothes for Christmas. What are some good online resources for such things. I realize that there probably isn't enough time to have something shipped at this point, but it would be nice to have some leads for future reference. I definitely need a place that carries plus-sized clothing, I usually wear an 18-22. Thanks for your help! |
