    This dudes recipes are always too complicated. For example: '4 aubergines, peeled lengthways in alternate strips, so it ends up covered in purple-and-white stripes'
    That's half as complicated as peeling an aubergine.

    Half the work, not half the complexity

    And usually he'll be sure to include some exotic material that requires a trip to Iraq to find. Later you discover it's just ground cumin in oil

    Oh my god this poor news anchor on eyewitness news

    "The leader of Hispanics for Trump has given voters something to...taco about"

    The anguish on her face was divine...

    You can always sub stuff

    Though they do seem to be calculated to annoy people like my mother, who finds the idea of deviating from the letter of a recipe extremely distressing

    Edit: also he isn't the only chef that's bad for that kind of thing. I tend to think of it as a london-centric "you can find this in your local middle Eastern supermarket" thing.

    He just happens to own a chain of London delis that sell such things which I think is why it annoys me. Even though it's obviously not a cash grab and is just middle eastern food requiring less available ingredients

    When you get here @Atomika I am going to show you the finest Seattle has to offer.

    That's right: I am going to take you to a place called Starbucks. You've probably never heard of it.

    I am like your mother in this regard. Meanwhile FrauCron is more lackadaisical about those sort of things.
    So I have to play FIFA or something while she cooks so I'm not backseat cooking.

    Well, that's my excuse anyway.

    They’re gonna need a bigger bowl.

    The recent birth of two Irish wolfhound puppies has scientists excited, because—for the first time ever—the puppies have been confirmed through genetic analysis to be identical twins.

    People have suspected for years that identical (monozygotic) twins are possible in domestic dogs, and there have been anecdotal reports, but there has never been a confirmed case in the scientific literature until now. And it turns out that although human twins are relatively common, identical twins are exceedingly rare in other species.

    The identical twin puppies, named Cullen and Romulus, were delivered by vet Kurt de Cramer in South Africa's Rant en Dal Animal Hospital in Mogale City. He was performing a cesarean section on the mother, who was in distress. He found the two pups attached via umbilical cords to the same placenta, something he had never seen before in decades of practice.

    The new Deus Ex game has instilled some renewed hatred for politicians in me.

    A second playthrough is going to be interesting in how it affects the calculus of who gets shot in the face.
