Don’t try to teach your grampa how to neg, boy!

Lettuce not go there. (Thinks: I mustard romaine neutral.)

As I understand it @cowicide is a repeat offender-- he was suspended a few years ago for something, I was never sure what, there’s an old thread about it on bbs meta somewhere.

Yep, he’s a controversial one. In this case, he literally said to remove his account (they didn’t, just a 21 day suspension).

In my experience, telling even the most reasonable mod on the most benign of websites ā€œfuck youā€ is a good way to get one’s wrist slapped.

Ah, but have you tried roasted iceberg?

I just spent a little too long thinking about whether or not that was remotely possible!

Okay. I’m sorry. I’m taking this one way off the rails. But if you find kale too bitter when raw, you need to give it a good rub down. Massage it, then toss it in a dressing made of lots of shredded parmesan, a bit of lemon juice, salt, and olive oil. It’ll turn you around on raw kale.

Love it. A lot like what I recommended. I should have just continued reading down thread.

Gems are best for roasting, for my dollar. Although I’d rather grill some anise and radicchio.

I’ve heard that! I promise I will give it a try, thank you for the idea.

Yes. Also: soy sauce and extreme heat. If you know the proper way to make fried rice, using a wok and a really hot flame (hotter than what you get on any consumer stove), this can be applied to most vegetables and is marvelous.

Battered should be doable. Given the size of an iceberg.

His first big(ish) break Made In Britain is good. The Exploited did a lot of the soundtrack IIRC.

That’s when you know it’s getting good.

Does that criteria exclude searches for the Samuel L Jackson and Robert Carlyle film?

#EEEEECH TRIGGER WARNING

The explorer Redmond O’Hanlon wrote about spending time with a tribe in Brazil which had had limited contact with the outside world. One day he was walking in the rainforest with a couple of these guys, and one of them killed a howler monkey; when he found its head bobbing around in his mess tin, his guide told him that as their guest the monkey’s eyes were reserved for him: it was a great honour, and would bring good luck. So he steeled himself, took the monkey’s skull, and sucked each eye out.

Chimo put his bowl down, folded his hands on his paunch, and roared with laughter.

ā€œYou savage!ā€ he shouted. ā€œYou horrible naked savage! Don’t you think it looks like a man? How could you do a disgusting thing like that?ā€
