Hey, has no one told the thread about the baby panda at National Zoo yet?
I'm silly happy that it seems to be healthy. Yay for baby pandas!
Well, other bands know more than three chords. Your professional bands can play up to six, sometimes seven, completely different chords.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I quit eating ketchup when I was in high school, but I recently discovered some sort of organic ketchup that doesn't have corn syrup and doesn't taste weird, and have refound my love.
I love mock crab. Possibly more than real crab.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Oooh, Lyra has invented the double secret probation font.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Aha! Found it. "I don't know, but I want one."
I should get back to work.

Mayonnaise is an abomination. That's in Leviticus somewhere, I swear it.
Are you talking about this passage:
And Moses said to Aaron and to Elea'zar and Ith'amar, his sons, "Do not let the hair of your heads hang loose, and do not partake of the mayonnaise, lest you die, and lest wrath come upon all the congregation; but your brethren, the whole house of Israel, may bewail the burning which the LORD has kindled.
Some say that this was a mistaken translation and Moses was actually speaking about Miracle Whip rather than mayonnaise. After all, Moses had a lot of experience with miracles.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies
Okay, now I am incredibly hungry.

Mayo is repulsive on all things, though can be made into an interesting sauce with the addition of other crap

Someday, I will make homemade mayonnaise for you two, and make you recant this heresy.
I've never tried strawberries and balsamic vinegar, but that just seems wrong to me.
That's because you're thinking of American grocery store balsamic vinegar. Real balsamic vinegar is a thick syrup, and faintly sweet. It's nothing at all like vinegar as this country knows it.

Hey, can you make it with pork fat? My problem with mayo is my increasing intolerance for vegetable oils.
That'd ROCK.

If you can figure out how to make pork fat stay liquid at room temperature, I will whisk it into an egg yolk for you with some salt and lemon juice (and just a pinch of powdered mustard) and call it mayonnaise.
