I teach painting at a community college, and this is exactly the level of work I see from my more talented students. Lots of enthusiasm, not much sophistication or originality.

Here's what they're looking for: something they haven't seen before.

Expressionist, but not abstract.

Yes. I didn't hate it, but for me it was a turning point. From there on, I just didn't connect with his music in the way I had previously. Not saying others should feel this way— if you feel so strongly about Modern Love, good for you! The more Bowie fans the better.

Didn't he also have vanity plates on the car that said "chef" or something like that?

This is a good plan, I think.

I thought that some of the characters behaved in ways that were totally implausible, most notably the community college adjunct who was dating one of her students, and partying with them as a group. In real life, that would have been the end of her teaching position.

Dirty sauce. I've learned to ask them to leave it out when I'm going to be around people afterwards (though the sandwiches are never as good without them.)

Right? It's so entertaining. I even enjoyed the meat sections although I don't eat it.

I buy canned chipotles mostly to use the adobo sauce they're canned in. The actual chiles, as you say, are crazy hot. But a tablespoon or so of the sauce is fantastic. I always put some in when I make black beans for tacos.

The Food Lab has forever changed the way I cook pasta, potatoes, and eggs. But man, that is one huge and heavy book. I prefer the e-book version for that reason.

Yes, that was part of what made it so frustrating! He didn't make it clear, and she didn't press him for details. Same thing with Bran and Sansa: "I'm the Three Eyed Raven! What's that? Oh, can't really explain it". WHAT?

Old Dutch used to make a lot of flavored chips. Maybe they still do? I remember dill pickle, chicken and ketchup flavors, among others. The ketchup was my favorite, and I wish I could find it here in the U.S.

I thought the encounter between Jon and Daenarys was frustrating and implausible. A man who is trusted by her advisor is telling her that he has personally seen an army of the undead that is coming to wipe out their entire continent— and she doesn't even say, tell me what you know? She just dismisses it? This isn't a…

Report back!

I think it's this:

Not nearly as egregious as the other examples being posted here, but "Goood Frickin Chicken" has always bugged me. You're going to go with that just because your sign painter fucked up?

I thought maybe I was the only one who thinks that name is revolting. It makes me think of someone gorging themselves while they're pooping.

This soup is worth the effort. An easier way to deal with the tomatoes is to just cut them in half and grate them on a box grater.
