it's how they keep their prices down! The all you can eat buffet lunch is only $6.50!
I like pancakes 'cause they're stackable. Ooo, and waffles 'cause you can put things in the little holes if you wanted to.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
I was thinking about Kathy last night before I fell asleep. I'm still just so so inspired and all GO TEAM and stuff.
I've never had Ethiopian food, though I'm told it's super yummy.
I'm super non-adventurous when it comes to food. I'm always afraid I'll end up with a bowl of chicken eyeballs in gravy.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Daisy Jane, that boy should have to have a license to have that much cute. 'Tis a deadly weapon.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I don't actually like Ethiopian food. I find the bread too sour. I will cheerfully eat my weight in naan, though.

The status is NOT quo.
Crap! Kathy, I've been cheering you in my head for a week but always forget to actually type out my admiration. Go you!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
A man accused of robbing a Belfast lingerie shop at knifepoint has fallen back on a time honoured defence – namely, his claim that he believed he was a female elf at the time.
Belfast Crown Court was told by the prosecution that 45-year-old Robert Boyd from Broadlands, Carrickfergus had held up the shop, Orchid, while disguised in a wig, hat and sunglasses. He allegedly made off with bras, knickers, stockings and suspender belts.
However, Boyd's defence maintain that at the time, Boyd believed that he was a elf, having been playing the cyberpunk role-playing game Shadowrun.
More specifically, he believed that he was a female shaman (meaning a natural magic user) elf named Beho, and that he thought he was armed with a samurai sword. Boyd admits that he may have 'blurred reality and fantasy'.
He also claims that he can not remember the details of the incident.
While Boyd maintains that he is innocent of the crime, he admits that he can't be sure that the metahuman Beho did not plan to rob the store.
The prosecution are sceptical of these claims, and suggest that Boyd/Beho is 'using this memory loss scenario to avoid answering very difficult questions.'

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
I have to be a bit conservative with Ethiopian -- burning-hot spiciness = bad -- but I have definitely enjoyed the whole "your plate is also dinner" setting and the various flavors. Asmara is pretty good -- and a lot cheaper for lunch than they are for dinner!
The secret to the chicken-eyeballs issue is not to ask. You see something vaguely eyebally swimming in your soup, you just don't ask. You don't ask what's in a hot dog, do you??
N.B. This approach does not work for chicken feet. They just look exactly like what they are.
