"You can't put a price on the joy of not giving a shit." -Zenkitty

shrift! Did you know there's a secret QI pilot episode? In the sense that I had no idea it existed? WITH EDDIE IZZARD?

Bookmarked for watching when I am not work! For I think Stephen Fry + Eddie Izzard = AWESOMECAKES.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I just read about how they are growing truffles in Tennessee, now, and how exciting it is because it hasn't been done successfully in the US before. It's apparently a process that's not very subject to control.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

See, I'm vindicated for wasting my afternoon poking YouTube for Hugh Laurie clips, because it led me to this.

I have also never had caviar, but I gather that opposition to that is based on the fact that when you eat up the eggs of a fish, eventually you don't have any more fish. Whoops!

Until recently, I thought they had to kill the fish to get the eggs, but apparently this is not the case. It's just that with modern refrigeration and shipping, it's possible to harvest so many eggs that you don't get another generation of sturgeon for next year's caviar.

Caviar = nummy with hard boiled eggs and/or creme fraiche and blini

American farmed caviar = not quite as good as the marketing people say it is. I don't care if it is served at the White House, the expensive imported stuff just plain tastes better.

Truffles = ALSO nummy in small doses! (And at several million dollars and your first born child per shaving, small doses are pretty much all you get.)

Truffle oil = overused crap that should be banned on the basis that restaurants should learn that THERE ARE OTHER FLAVORS BESIDES TRUFFLE OIL.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I quite like caviar.

Izzard however I would definately eat with a spoon. Slowly. With relish.

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

You are NOT trading that baby for truffles, missy!

So...you're saying I should hold out for some foie gras instead?

vanguard of the socialist Hollywood liberal homosexualist agenda

So, out of boredom, I explained the rules of FCM to a group of my friends... we email all day from our respective jobs.

Not!ex declared that he didn't want to play because it's "a girl thing".

Ye gods, what did I ever see in that man boy...

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

I googled PETA to see what are all the things they're opposed to. They're opposed to people having pets. Damn.
