I mean, he’s written some of my favorite games of all time, but this does explain a lot about what’s happened with him professionally recently. Obsidian wanted him out not because he’s not talented, but because he makes it harder for everybody else to do their jobs and no “genius” is worth that. Of late he’s been kind

It seems like it would be easy for sites that take user reviews to simply not allow them to be submitted before a certain period of time passes (like a week) after release.

I’m just fundamentally uninterested in games that set out to make me feel bad. I’m not against “Feel bad” art, but games have a level of interactivity that makes it feel worse than movies, or books, etc. So while this game might 100% accomplish what it set out to do, none of it is anything I want any part of.

It is remarkable the extent to which Americans are not willing to make sacrifices for the common good.  During, for example, WWII people put up with rationing and other restrictions for four or more years. These days, you ask people to stay home and enjoy their Netflix subscription and they lose their GD minds in 3

If you want to make really good waffles, the batter needs to be significantly lighter than pancake batter. I usually do yeasted waffles or use whipped egg whites and seltzer to give additional lift.

Maple syrup is kind of spendy, but if you’re in a pinch agave is fairly inexpensive and a better choice on pancakes that dyed corn syrup.

Come to think of it, I do kind of want a hotdog.  What’s a good supermarket hot dog?

What even is the gimmick for Ruby Tuesday that differentiates it from all the other middlebrow chains?  Like Chili’s is vaguely Southwestern, Bennigan’s is parody-Irish, the Olive Garden is Italianish, etc.  So what’s the hook for Ruby Tuesday?

In a large enough city, would there be a way you could do a delivery app that was a co-operative of all the restaurants that are participating?  Just defray the cost of the infrastructure over all of the participants, and make sure nobody is getting ripped off like this?

I know there aren’t a lot of big companies that make video games, but Riot is the worst one right?  Literally everything I hear about that place makes it sound like a nightmare.

I confess, while I see the problem with the other five I’m still not sure what the issue with Stone-Throwing Devils is.  Is it “the big nose” thing?

I have an unopened bottle of Dark Corn Syrup with a sell-by date of September 1987.  I plan on keeping it forever.

The only thing I like at cracker barrel is that little peg board game where you remove the pegs by jumping them.  I’m assuming alcohol will not help my scores on that.

But, and I say this as someone who’s had the “all edges” brownie pan on their Amazon wishlist for literally 20 years, is “my [whatever] doesn’t have enough edges” really a *problem*?

Not strictly Wish related, but tangentially related and relevant to food. I saw this in a promoted tweet a few months back.

I guess the question is whether “replacing the CO2 canister” is more of a pain than freezing the bowl for the traditional kind.

I don’t have a metal box, I just keep all my recipes I want to save in a note pad application backed up on the google cloud. I’ve had to re-write my grandmother’s rice pudding recipe too often after the index card got spilled on to trust dead trees for this.

The best chex mix I ever made was just the cereal tossed with the butter+worcestershire+spices mixture (slightly more of it since the holes in the cereal will trap more of it) then roasted.  With the exception of nuts (which aren’t in the commercial mix because a) cost and b) allergies, none of that other stuff adds

There’s a lot of gelatin in this. Normally I just make flan with sugar, two kinds of canned milk, and a bunch of eggs (plus flavor ingredients). I imagine the other additions are for the “pudding pop” part not the “flan” part?

Honestly “people leave me alone, and the food is good” is my dream birthday.
