Buffistas

Very convincing. Makes me completely want to put myself under government control. Please take me to where you can make me unconscious and naked.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I was shopping tonight, and tried to get dinner at the middle eastern place at the food court of the mall. The conversation ended up something like this:

Me: I'd like the salad sampler, but with baba ganoush instead of tabbouleh.
Counter Guy: The salad sampler? That is hummus, fattoush, and tabbouleh.
Me: Yes, but I'd like to get it with baba ganoush instead of tabbouleh. Can I get that?
Him: You want to get falafel?
Me: No, I'd like a salad sampler. But I want it with baba ganoush INSTEAD OF tabbouleh. Can I get that?
Him: You don't like hummus?

After about five minutes of this, with me trying any way I could to explain what I wanted (and I've gotten it there before, with no problem), and him suggesting just about every other item on the menu, I finally gave up.

You talking about convincing people of impossibilities with bald-faced lies?

strawberry soup with a dollop of yogurt sorbet

I must admit this confuses me while still sounding yummy. I thought sorbets had no dairy at all in them.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Depends who you ask. Some people make a sorbet/sherbet distinction, other use them as broad synonyms.

I've never confused sorbet with a broad.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
