i veer between people genuine and absurd and hyperbolic
which works out well for me when i say sexist or homophobic things
because we're all like "man that was really terrible when he was genuinely sexist and homophobic at the same time but soon he'll say something absurd so we can maybe smile again."

As far as chain steakhouses go, I like The Palm, because I usually am there for work stuff and don't see the check
I like Ruth's Chris because they're right by PAX prime and have an excellent prime rib dip during lunch for like $10. And you can get it to go, which I need, since I don't really get breaks during PAX. -_-
If I want a primo steak I go to a butcher and then cook it myself.
life's a game that you're bound to lose / like using a hammer to pound in screws
fuck up once and you break your thumb / if you're happy at all then you're god damn dumb
that's right we're on a fucked up cruise / God is dead but at least we have booze
bad things happen, no one knows why / the sun burns out and everyone dies
Steak, especially filet, can also be cooked black and blue to stunning results, not just medium rare.
It is just impossible to cook it that way at home unless your oven can achieve temperatures over 1000° easily.
it kind of depends on the thickness, doesn't it?
like the recent technique i've been doing (low low convection oven like 140-150 for an hour, then sear the fuck out of the surface stovetop) has really gotten some lovely rare and medium rare results.
worked great for chicken too. i had never previously managed to successfully get that "grill flavor" on the cooktop.
I asked for ketchup for my steak one time at a high end restaurant, but it was only because the wait staff and manager were being complete cocks.
Fuck you assholes, if you're going to insult me by treating me like I'm not good enough to spend my hard earned money at your restaurant, I'm going to insult you too.
I don't understand horrible people that willingly go into hospitality. Some patrons must get off on being treated like shit
i knew a real asshole bartender with a chip on her shoulder
she was pretty convinced that she was just upholding the dignity of her profession and restaurant when she went off on customers for some perceived slight
it was pretty asinine. i saw her drive off so much business
there is a few Asian restaurants in London that have a rep for treating the customers like shit
and i don't mean being slightly aloof i mean outright insulting
things like kicking you off your table half way through a meal if a bigger party come in
they're famous for it, people actually go there just to get treated like shit because they find it funny being yelled at by Chinese people

Hey look, it's Elke the drain cat. Who up until I tried to take picture was sitting nobly upon my knee.
So people may remember that my girlfriend spotted a kitten in a drain a few weeks ago and I fished her out.
We took her to the vet and she was pronounced unusually young to be out on her own and rather underweight. She more or less took to my girlfriend and her sister straight away. She was scared of me and would zoom under the nearest couch whenever I entered the room. Her first night at our place she snuggled up to me in bed for a couple of hours before running around until about 4AM. Whereupon I felt her crawl on top of me, get comfortable and pee...everywhere. And then proceed to run around for the rest of the night.
Anyway, nowadays she's not underweight anymore and is growing like a weed. Loves chasing things, loves sleeping on my girlfriend while she plays Skyrim. And loves our first cat, a 7 year old ginger tabby who before being my house cat terrorised the neighbourhood in which he lived and was generally the local bad ass. She thinks his tail is the most exciting toy ever. He is very, very patient and puts up with her biting his tail and crawling all over him for ages - before he runs off and climbs the bookshelf that's too high for her, rather than just bopping her like we assumed he would.
She is also food obsessed, I assume because of her time in the drain. Or maybe she's just a little piggy.
I got the kids up at 7:35. We need to leave for school at 7:45.
looooool
BTW Spool, any more updates on the whole school debacle that's been going on?
Boy got his chromebook returned to him after having it reformatted.
He got in-school suspended for another day for having it hacked, but it turns out he did a brilliant thing: he didn't actually do the circumvention. He left it on a table at Wendy's with 5 of his friends, got in line to get a coke. When he returned, the device had been tampered with!

There used to be a place in Dallas, that was their schtick. They'd cut your necktie off with a pair of giant shears and nail it to a wall. Just openly insult you and make fun of your order etc etc.

In my experience, the more expensive a restaurant, the less good the food is. Burger vans serve ambrosia.
Goin' to a fancy restaurant with Ms. Raven, I always feel like Zoidberg in that episode where he has 100 dollars, but finds himself being served the junk part of the animals.

I salt and pepper the steak throw it in a 500 degree pan both sides 1 minute then throw it in the preheated oven at 500 until my internal steak cooking sense tells me its time, take it out, rest it on an elevated surface so any leakage doesn't make it soggy for 2 minutes and eat my perfect steak that's medium rare and awesome
try it the other way around.
the oven should dry off the outside enough that your pan sear will give much better results
