I hope you're still answering questions... Did any of the Sopranos cast try to pick you up when you were filming D-Girl?

What are some small, insignificant things that you judge people for? by WtfWhereAreMyClothesin AskReddit

On the flip side of that, when I hear a girl talking about a guy who tried to ask her out or be friendly, and I hear something like "And he was wearing SANDALS with SOCKS" or "Did you see his running shoes???" automatically your opinion is not valid.

There is a fresh dead cockroach inside my microwave door, and I'm afraid if my wife finds out she'll make me buy a new microwave. by Tarkaanin confession

VOCs denature about 3 hours after you spray them, and if they aren't persistent, are completely inert after about 20 hours.

It got sold to Michigan State University about 20 years ago. For a long time, the only way to eat there was by invitation of the Upjohn Company.

I understand the rage against people renouncing citizenship for tax reasons, but please understand - We expatriates pay taxes both at home *and* in the US, regardless of how long we've lived outside the country. How is that fair? (old story included) by Tarkaanin politics

  1. The United States is the only industrialized nation that has universal taxation.
  2. Most countries expect that if you live there, you pay taxes there.

Why does the US think it's so much better than everyone else, that they need its nonresident citizens to pay twice?

Do you want to concentrate on complete meals or individual skills?

You can do both. Divide them into three groups: Meat, starch, vegetable, and basically teach three classes at the same time. I think that would be a little cumbersome.

Personally I would focus on skills.

Have each student bring in a 5kg bag of flour and a 2kg bag of sugar to start. They can bring eggs and baking powder and flavorings in if they want.

Try to create an evolution.

  1. Bacon and eggs: Heat in a pan. Make sure everyone knows how to use the equipment.

  2. Crustless Quiche Lorraine: This requires a little mixing.

  3. Pancakes: They can use their mixing skill for baking next.

  4. Quick Bread: The most forgiving thing you can bake.

  5. Cake: Like a quick bread, but requires a lot more precision.

  6. Bread: This can be left to rise in the refrigerator, which is VERY nice if you add any herbs or garlic.

  7. Roast chicken and stuffing: You already have the bread

See, things that evolve. That's what I would do.

She doesn't cook, thankfully. She probably won't find it, and maybe just for fun I'll get us a new microwave for Christmas.

Sorry, I didn't know Reddit was an Americans-Only club. Galbi means ribs in Korean, and costela de porco means pork ribs in Portuguese. Being international sometimes means I have a viewpoint outside of the US. Sorry if that makes me hard for you to understand.

Rapadura is a byproduct of sugar refining. It's basically hard sugar cane juice left over from the refinement process, like molasses. They eat it like a candy anywhere south of Panama.

Added to Barbecue sauce, it gives a sweet, dark, tangy flavor. Rapadura is much sweeter than molasses, so there's no need to add sugar. Really, rapadura, vinegar, and ketchup would make a very nice tangy-sweet glaze.

You're absolutely right, Tom.

Is there a website that tracks what manufactures are doing in terms of reducing package sizes while keeping prices the same? Latest example: I bought Natures Valley Granola bars and they have reduced the package from 8 bars to 6 - a substantial price increase. by z_impalerin AskReddit

And there we go. The American Christian Conservative in his natural habitat. Defends gay bashers for all the good they do in his community, then attacks a non-Christian for his non-Christianness. You are truly an example to others. Good job.
