Your butter came from Mars?
Y'all see the man hanging out of the spaceship with the really big gun? Now I'm not saying you weren't easy to find. It was kinda out of our way, and he didn't want to come in the first place. Man's lookin' to kill some folk. So really it's his will y'all should worry about thwarting.

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

By and large I don't find the show cry-making, but hopeful, and I think I've actually learned something about patterns of codependence from it. YCMMV

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
No! I need to know before I mess up these brownies. Also I probably shouldn't rest sticks of butter on the laptop.
But I guess I put in two of my sticks.........

I'm pretty sure I couldn't handle watching Intervention, although I probably could use the information contained within. I have enough peripheral heartbreak, thankyewverymuch.

it, google random brownie recipes and go with the measurements that match the flour to butter ratio. Mine are also 4 oz sticks and they are standard-in-my-life sizes.

Always Anti-fascist!
I've tried, because I'm fascinated with that subject, but so far, I just feel dirty. And not the fun kind. Like I'm peeping and shit.

Because books.
A regular stick is always a half cup, or four ounces. Does the stick look extra big?
I would go with the "one stick" direction, and assume the eight ounces was a typo. Two sticks seems like a lot.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
A stick would be four ounces by logic -- the box is a pound, and it has four sticks, right? 16 oz in a lb, 16/4=4.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
If the recipe isn't American, though, it'll be different. European butter comes in different sizes.
