Punishingly Intricate

There is supposedly an Eggspectations here in Columbia, MD. I'll have to investigate whether they are still open or not and, if so, where they are hidden because that the Construction sounds like total YUM to me.

Different departments here host breakfast on Fridays. It's gotten pretty elaborate (there are electric griddles kept here for frying up bacon and eggs, making pancakes etc). Today was awesome Southern breakfast with grits and eggs and biscuits and fried apples and there were cinnamon rolls and turkey bacon (the ladies hosting this week don't eat the swine, as they say) and really delicious fruit salad. I'm still full from this morning!

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I'm not onboard with potatoes and chocolate, unless it's french fries and a milkshake. Yum.

Pretzels and chocolate are better separate than together.

In partial salve for the Trent Lott nastiness, here's what the Focus on the Family fucktards are up in arms about today:

Former Texas Congressman Dick Armey, once a stalwart ally in the culture wars, appears to be turning his back on Christian conservatives and their leaders.

The former majority leader of the House of Representatives reportedly told Ryan Sager, author of a new book on the Republican Party, that values voters and their leaders — especially Focus on the Family Action Chairman Dr. James Dobson — are “nasty bullies.”

In the interview, Armey responded pointedly when Sager asked why he thought Christian conservatives seemed more powerful now than in the 1990s.

“To a large extent, because Dobson and his gang of thugs are real nasty bullies,” Armey said. “I pray devoutly every day, but being a Christian is no excuse for being stupid. There’s a high demagoguery coefficient to issues like prayer in schools. Demagoguery doesn’t work unless it’s dumb . . . These issues are easy for the intellectually lazy and can appeal to a large demographic.”

Dick Armey. Dick Armey. Maybe there's some hope for people to see the light after all.

french fries and a milkshake

OMG YES but it has to be a black and white milkshake for me. Preferably from the Charcoal Pit.

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

It's the salt that kills it for me. No longer neutral, the potatoes have aligned themselves with the enemy camp.

Nuke them from orbit, I sez.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Dick Armey. Dick Armey. Maybe there's some hope for people to see the light after all.

I just love his name. It sounds like some militant gay punk group.

Oh hell yes. Now I want that too. It is slightly more achievable than Eggspectations, at least.

Salt is ok with super-sweet things. I don't salt my fries anyway.

Oh dear, now Brenda is dead to me.

Don't they salt them for you? I rarely get them without a hint of salt.
