  1. I do love garlic. I double the recipe typically. It's just an absurd weight to measure something.
  2. Probably the only silver lining to this hellscape summer is that I haven't been bit by a mosquito in months. And we've got a culver running right behind my backyard. Normally can't even be in the back yard the skeeters are so bad.
  3. why am i drinking my own urine? in what world do I live in where I have access to pizza but not water?
  4. This is why you use the zester for minced garlic. Takes like 4 seconds and you turn the whole clove into paste. The press basically just extracts the liquid from the garlic, and leaves all the "flesh". I either run it through the zester for minced garlic, or I'll thin slice it very thin for beans, chili, or pastas. On a related note, can recipe creators stop measuring garlic in "cloves"? Some cloves are literally 5 times larger than other cloves within a single head. We need to measure them in weight or volume. But not "clove"
  5. Is there any possibility Hill isn't the #1 overall in the initial Looch 44?
  6. This whole thing makes no sense and I love it. Except dropping n-bombs. I don't like that. But I do like when it happens to Sooners.
  7. Also, it’s impossible to believe there aren’t tortillas in New Jersey. There are Mexicans everywhere. Tortillas are ubiquitous. You can find tortillas in Alaska.
  8. Sure. Maybe two grand is chump change for the surly 1%. But for a "bartender" and struggling actress, that's probably rent for two months in 2010. Just sharing what she was up against. But yeah, I don't know how you can defend that drink.
  9. I watched this yesterday and then watched one of the related videos on YouTube of a bartender reacting to the video, and also telling the back story. Apparently she was paid $2000 in 2010 by Maholo to make 100 "how-to" drink videos. She worked till 2am the night before and had a 7am call the next morning. She shows up to the shoot and it's just her and a camera man, with a bunch of recipes that were wrong, and a handful of bottles of bottom-rail liquor. And no bar utensils - no muddler, no jigger, no spouts. No shaker. Just two giant glasses, which held different volumes. No bitters in the bottle. One bucket of ice. Etc. She got fucked. So they had to re-strain the ice for every drink. I feel bad for her. Apparently, at the time, she had a masters in secondary education and graduated with honors at UC Irvine for undergrad. She's not a dummy. Also, would bang. That still doesn't excuse a 12-ounce old fashioned, though.
  10. So you're OK with 100-105 degree days, as long as there's rain, but also low humidity? Care to explain where this magical place exists, professor?
  11. Nothing in the article you linked said that test audiences said it was so bad, WB felt it was unfixable. Everything I've read is that they're shelving it for "tax reasons".
  12. I'm necro-bumping this thread, as this is the first time I've skimmed through it. But I read about this the other day (also a very old article) pertinent to your post. Here's the letter Anthony Hopkins wrote to Bryan Cranston regarding his Walter White performance:
  13. Ben Stiller also directed Severance on AppleTV, which has been my favorite new TV show to come out in 2022.
  14. Now I'm questioning why I've never had enchiladas for breakfast (not brunch, or "first meal of the day after waking up late and hungover"). Why aren't cheese enchiladas on more breakfast menus?
  15. He's never been to campus and hasn't scheduled an OV yet. While there appears to be legitimate interest, I think a lot of people on this board are wishcasting on Wilson based on clickbait by a few $9.95ers. Let's tap the brakes on this guy until he actually shows up.
  16. Use a microplane/zester instead. That way you get to use the whole clove of garlic and don't have to fuck with the skin. Works for ginger too
  17. Here's what I think's gonna happen y'all - if we win a lot of games, we'll be ranked higher in the polls than if we lose a lot of games. If we lose to Kansas, we're not gonna be ranked in the polls. Let's see what happens!
  18. The "sandwich slice" should be the standard shape for fried pickles. Same thickness as chips but cut lengthwise to provide a greater breading/fry surface area.
