Buffistas

Reavers ain't men. Or they forgot how to be. Now they're just nothing. They got out to the edge of the galaxy, to that place of nothing, and that's what they became.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

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

Mayonnaise is an abomination. That's in Leviticus somewhere, I swear it.

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.

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

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.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

my contribution to the crazy food talk is that San Fran likes carrots and I think there is a east coast/west coast and also a north/south us divide in many of these issues.

discuss.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I've had homemade mayo plenty times (and for that matter, made a good bit of it myself.) It's tolerable in limited contexts, which puts it way above the jarred stuff, but still in the category of "more trouble than it's worth for something I don't actually like."

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

It's like if 6 different recurring natter conversations suddenly exploded around mayonnaise.

Ahahaha!!! I was just about to post something like "Here we go -- Buffista conversation #34, with a little #18 thrown in for good measure."

not my actual opinion David, just an observation.

Apart from sports, "my secret favorite thing on earth is ketchup. I will put ketchup on anything. But it has to be Heinz." - my husband, Michael Vartan

Ketchup is the bomb-diggity. By which I mean Heinz, obviously.

I'm in NY, Hec.

My phone rocks! That's some pickup. Hey -- would you know -- is anyone famous in that ad?

There's no one famous that I know of in there. Nor in the Fanta commercial that I also caught part of before preempting your message. Why? Also, why was your phone on in the movie theater, ita? You know that there's the possibility that your chair will chuck you out of the theater and that everyone will applaud.
