@mikehart526: Animals in emotional distress produce worse meat, both in terms of your health and in terms of taste, than "happy" animals.

@aec007: They're not just heavily encrypted. Actual secret networks are physically separate from the Internet.

@The Intangible Fancy: By "cut the fuckers" off, you mean, maybe we should build a big firewall that blocks all traffic to or from China? Now where have I heard that idea before... a big, national firewall that filters traffic to "unsavory" locations. Hmm...

@stryder100: This is, IMO, the main difference between FB and Google. Whenever Google's UI (be it Gmail, Chrome, etc...) does something I don't want, my first thought is, "Give it a while. Google usually knows better than I do." Google's UI design is sometimes so far outside the box that it's cumbersome until you get

@johnwonderbread: for me, the freezer has been the key to cooking for one. I make up a ten-serving pot of chili, put three servings in the fridge, and put the remaining seven in mason jars in the freezer. Microwave and thaw as needed.

@blash: This is a tiny nit to pick, but I'm not sure how you can say the average restaurant burger is healthier than something cooked in oil. I mean, it's hard to assess "health" as a single-vector quality, but restaurant burgers are usually made from some fatty meat, not to mention that ground beef is the least

@rathat: It's sad to me that so few people nowadays cook for themselves. What could be more important and fundamental than the food that one consumes. To have that almost-totally handled for one's self by others seems somehow wrong.

@medopal, medohack: If it takes you 2-3 hours in the kitchen to make a meal, you're either making very complicated meals, or you're doing something wrong. IMO, most meals can be made in under 30 minutes. But this is missing the point. Making a meal is a very geeky activity, so it doesn't have to be "taking away from"

The whole time I was reading this comic, I was shouting, "you're doing it wrong!" If that's how cooking turns out for you, I can see why you're miserable. There is so much wrong here that I don't even know where to start.

@Joshua Bardwell: Well, shit. No wonder. This is Gizmodo, not BoingBoing. Never mind.

r.e. "prison bitch": rape jokes are not funny. Please, BoingBoing, be better than this.

@shalegac: +1. I thought the same thing. Facilitated communication is woo.

Dumbass. Fat people also eat bananas, and skinny people also eat donuts. Way to be a propagator of fat-hate.

@Seventhexile Speaks: The bullet is spinning because the barrel of the gun is rifled. It spins in flight to stabilize it. All it has to do is ricochet and then land point-down for this to work.
