GM's Thread About Everything/GM's Thread About Nothing (8 Viewers)

I do some drills on my PC to ensure my card-counting skills are sharpened before a trip to Vegas. It is a greatly simplified system, so while my edge is small, I can do it while drunker than Johnny Manziel. What I have learned this week is if I try it while under the influence of General Malaise's Mystery Poultice & Dog-Exterminator, I can't do it at all.

This is kind of a silly endeavor.

Pickles are a condiment, meaning they are eaten with  something, unless you're one of those morons walking around the little league park with a dill the size of a baseball bat.

The true value of any condiment is how it enhances the primary food it accompanies.

tuna salad = dill or garlic dill

pate' = cornichon

Jalepeno cornbread and blacleyed peas = bread and butter

Snarkiness and fantasy baseball prowess = mr. pickles

etc.

I celebrate the entire pickle as condiment category

A plain sour pickle is a wonderful snack.

Absolutely correct. Ate two spears last night, on their own, as a snack. 

Although there are only like 17 foods in the world I'm allowed to eat right now so that may have had something to do with the decision, but nevertheless, very good.

I think I just bought a Yeti cooler for 80% off retail because I know somebody. Starting to think the whole thing might be a scam.

 
Dills, gherkins, bread and butter.  All have their place. As a kid, in the fall the females in the family were always busy canning stuff.  Dill pickles (spears), bread and butter with onions.  bread and butter with roosted hot peppers, applesauce, pears, whatnot.  They also did cinnamon crab apples.  They were tasty.  I think it was a regional thing. You could also get them in the grocery, the cinnamon crab apples I mean, and I have not seen that in any other region.

I used to see pickled  apples in the store in SE Texas. I remember them being vivid red and cinnamon heavy. Kind of like spiced peaches. I liked them both, but I never visit the canned fruit aisle anymore and don't know if they are still being sold.  That's kind of weird, too. Canned fruit was a mainstay of my childhood= cocktail, peaches, pears, pineapple... I don't think i've bought a can for myself in 40 years or more.

 
I found out yesterday that a lesbian executive, a 40 yo hot lesbian executive, at my office left her partner of many years for a 25 yo hot piece of ###. This is going to make concentration during meeting impossible. 

 
You know what;s really under-rated? Pickled onions. 

Bill MIller's makes the worst bbq in town, but they make some freaking great pickled onions and pico de gallo. I'll go and get their cheapest menu item, just so I can go to their condiment bar and load up. Thankfully they make fried chicken, which no one can screw up, because if I ordered their brisket, I'd probably just throw it away

Do you have a Yeti sticker on the back window of your truck yet?

My oldest son just went to a live WWE thing a couple of weeks ago.  I don't get it either.

 
Serious Eats is an amazing website for cooking, have made multiple recipes from there and all have been incredible. I made the Boston Cream Pie and the Spicy Sicilian Pizza today. Out####ingstanding.

 
Louis c.k. on mortality.  

I found out when I was seven that everybody dies.  I found out from my grandpa.  He said "everybody dies!".  I wasn't even talking to him.  I was just trying to blow out my candles.

:shock: Hope it's just the Brimley's instead of those other awfully scary things.

 
Reddit today:. What's the best house rule(s) you had with roommates?

"Bananas have to be eaten from a kneeling position maintaining full eye contact if someone else in in the room."

 
Yuke got to pick the menu for the day since he turned five today. We had breakfast tacos from Torchys for breakfast, donuts and kolaches for lunch and chicken parm for dinner. That kid should be in charge every day.
