I don’t know what Bordier butter is, but my wife and I get really fancy Irish or Amish butter, and I have recently had to start insisting that we keep some regular non-premium butter around for just this reason. It feels wasteful to grease a pan with super-fancy premium butter, or to use it in certain recipes.

I see what you did there.

Corn on the cob? Sweet Potatoes? Peanuts? I can understand not liking leafy greens, but man, there’s a LOT of veggies out there that are pretty interesting, especially when cooked in lots of salt and butter.

ALL vegetables? That seems crazy. I don’t eat nearly as much variety of vegetables as I should, but I still eat plenty of vegetables. Potatoes are a vegetable.

I mean, it’s not why atheism is the right choice, but it’s a nice perk.

When I sort my comments by “Top Week” I get stuff from 10 days ago.

Edit: Actually, no matter what time period I select, I still see old posts from 10 days ago.

It’s a great fun movie. The plot’s great, the pacing is great, the references are great, the comedy is great. It’s a fun adventure with a relatable team of misfit heroes.

It takes some liberties with the game mechanics to accomplish this. If you can’t forgive that, you’ll have a rough time, especially if you like wildshaping druids and spellcasting bards.

The entire point of moderation is to keep horrible people from saying horrible things. Say things that communities find acceptable, or get on out of those communities.

I’m sure there are some other communities that will welcome your opinions, but you should really already know how unpopular that particular opinion is among the general population of the English-speaking world.

for those needing the explanation of this stupid joke:

ANgel + deVIL = AN-VIL.

I know some gestures definitely aren’t. Nodding “yes” and shaking your head for “no” are not universal, nor is the “come here” motion or motions for eating or drinking.

One thing that IS universal is throwing your hands up in celebration of a victory. The thing boxers do at the end of a match. Even blind people who have never seen that gesture do it instinctively.
