The loudest complaints around the “silence” around the sexual violence of the Oct 7 attacks are coming from those who are cheering loudest for a genocidal campaign that has killed 20,000 people, 70% of whom have been women and children.

Exactly - the concept of “purity tests” are what turned the GOP into the dystopian party of Marjorie Taylor-Greene and Lauren Boebert. We don’t need two parties adopting this strategy.

No one has said they support sexual violence committed against Israeli women from the October 7 attacks. No one! You are literally gaslighting.

#1: If I remember correctly, current “moderate democrat” Fetterman was better than the alternative

You’re only kidding yourself if you think the DNC wants actual progressives. Never forget that Pelosi and Schumer supported anti-abortion incumbent Henry Cuellar in Texas against actual progressive Jessica Cisneros:

Definitely not true for Fried Green Tomatoes — there was criticism at the time that the film excised all lesbian content from the book (watching it now recently, they really do seem just like really good friends. It was certainly not simply a matter of contemporary interpretation). Color Purple gets it a little better…

That’s one movie adaptation that restores the gay relationship the first movie didn’t have the guts to keep. Bring on Fried Green Tomatoes!

Why on earth would you cameo actors from a movie you’re remaking? That’s begging for a comparison that you may not want.

That’s the difference between fine dining (which can reach the level of artistry) and “regular” dining (which you can do much more often). I would not dare alter a dish at a true fine-dining restaurant because I know that dish took days or weeks to create, each ingredient thought-out, sourced, and balanced off of the…

FYI, there some posts in this comment section where you haven’t yet made it clear that you will only patronize restaurants that will cook food just the way you want it. You’d better get a move on and reply to those posts as well, just to be sure.

Their message was far too kind. Not nearly enough “fuck offs” and “We’re not your personal chef. Eat it or don’t.”  Way too many entitled douches out there in the world. Got to start shaming them more often to reign in this behavior.

Yes, they can.

Now shut the fuck up and go to Burger King or wherever they tolerate you. 

McDonald’s is over there.  Burger King over there.   Off you waddle!

I’d be pissed if I was a patron of this restuarant and other diners’ idiocy led to a great, classic dish being removed as an option. Carbonara is a specific dish and if people don’t want that specific dish, they should order something else.

Unless you have a personal chef, this is not the flex you think it is.

Before I go to a restaurant I look at the menu to see if I think I’ll enjoy the food. If the menu doesn’t appeal to me, I choose another place. I don’t go there, demand they make me something not on the menu and then throw a tantrum if they refuse.

I’m not sure why you would even go to a place that doesn’t make a dish the way you like it, then order that dish and instruct someone on how to make it completely differently. You’re way better off ordering something else or going somewhere that makes the dish the way you like it.

Jesus, say it a fifth time. Enjoy your chicken nuggets like the child you are. 

I wish I could say I was surprised by diners’ behaviour but alas. I do understand in a fast-casual or a chain restaurant expecting you can make some subs or requests. Sure. But for a fancy restaurant, expecting they’ll change a signature recipe? People should know better. I would be horrified to go to a fancy…
