    The worst is when you order biscuits and gravy and the gravy is near water consistency.

    Send it back.

    When they ask why, you tell them because it isn't gravy.

    Gravy should not be watery.

    I saw the actor Paul Sorvino give a talk once and he was very insistent that people who cook with extra virgin olive oil are doing it wrong because it gets bitter when it's cooked, and that you only cook with regular olive oil and only use extra virgin for dressings and marinades

    No idea if that's true or not but I've tried to avoid cooking with extra virgin ever since

    I am inclined to believe that this is true

    I've been mostly successful by being cautious, bounding to cover, a lot of observation and listening, and the few times I've had someone run up on me quickly I used cover better. I was #3 in that last game because I hit the wrong key on my keyboard in a hurry and switched to my unloaded pistol instead of switching over the shoulder view while another player and I fought around a tree.

    That this forum is incapable and/or uninterested in serious discussions of cultural appropriation, I respectfully ask that people not make jokes about it.

    Pot, kettle

    Also, no

    If you want an honest response, you're someone I have engaged on this topic multiple times and this has consistently been your response.

    At this point I feel you're incapable of engaging in good faith with the topic.

    Firstly, what has been my response? My response in this case is extremely context specific. I'm not sure we've ever had the meta discussion about the relative aptitudes of the forums in general, or more likely, me in particular born of a throwaway remixing of chat bugbears

    When honestly engaged with you resort to personal attacks and obvious displays of anger in only a few exchanges. You are the victim of the difficulties of introspection friendo.

    If you are complaining that I don't take the issue of cultural appropriation seriously then that is rather assuming what you seek to prove.

    Your response has been to say "no" or disengage, which hardly counts as substantive. This isn't an attack, this is stating the facts.

    The last time there was a substantive discussion of cultural appropriation was underway was the time of SKFM, I've been looking back to the last time you interacted with me about this. Fundamentally the difficulty is that the chat thread is mostly full of nonsense (and anything said is as likely to be shitposting as anything else) and you and I occupy almost opposite timezones so we briefly interact on the topic and then I have to work, or sleep or whatever and you've taken issue with that in the past. It is bad form to necro chat arguments so that's something that we're just going to have to deal with until a dedicated thread pops up.

    If you're complaining that in general, in the chat thread, my response to assertion is simply counter assertion, then that is simply the way things go. Assertions absent argument are appropriately responded to with assertions.

    Is it at least labeled as such? We get Mapel Flavoured Syrup here, as well as actual Mapel Syrup, and the ingredients are clearly listed.

    Sometimes they like to throw a Gluten Free label on things that can't conceivably contain gluten.

    You know I think maple syrup might actually be regulated thanks to NAFTA and Canada - in the article linked about extra virgin olive oil, the USDA set up standards but has no enforcement mechanism so of course it's all (mostly) fake

    I'm kinda surprised carob hasn't become one of those "eat this for 100% markup it tastes like chocolate but it's not so it must be healthy* for you!"

    *please ignore all the sugar we still add to it
