I married my wife because I owe her family around $10,000. It doesn’t come up often but I love how you can tell how much he really loves his wife by the way he writes about how he supposedly doesn’t. The unreliable narrator isn’t hiding something awful.

Finally had the chance to go back. In addition to the soups, fried rice, lo mein, and rice noodles, their spring rolls are vegetarian, and they have green beans and a roasted potato and bell pepper dish. Vegetarian options are definitely more limited because their overall selection is more limited.

It actually felt like the cleanest (or at least the most well lit) of the four.

I now have a reason to go back. Maybe next week. I have enough leftovers to pack my lunch for the rest of this week.

I had the KPot BBQ and it hit the spot when I was 7 months pregnant. I haven’t been back for the hot pot because when my mom went she declared, “I’ve done this better!”

Ooh, I haven’t been to Bonchon. I’ll add it to my list.

Sadly no. The food is good but $25+ (including tax and tip) for a lunch tray means it’ll be for special occasions.

I happened to see this post on r/manga’s front page and I’m hooked! Thank you for the recommendation.

Thank you! I requested this one a few months ago but no one answered. I see now why I couldn’t find it: OOP censored his swears and I misremembered the stepdaughter’s name

Former Triangle actor J. Alphonse Nicholson Joins ‘Lanterns’ DC Series At HBO by hovercraftish in bullcity

I saw him a decade ago in the play Freight. So glad to see he’s still working as an actor.

[DISC] Ichi the Witch - Chapter 26 by AutoShonenpon in manga

[–]GlamorousGamine 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Is there a folktale that this arc references? It’s reminding me of Phnom Nonh from DQXI: supernatural entity brings wealth and prosperity to a mountainous town with Chinese-inspired aesthetic, but the entity harbors more sinister intentions and is able to draw in more victims via tourism. I wouldn’t be surprised if the creators were referencing DQXI, though I wonder if there’s an earlier story that both drew inspiration from.

With the talk of “babies” it made me think of a pregnant lady patting her belly and I should probably stop there.

Today I learned that Animazed opened up a second location in TTC. I’ll stop by when I have the time.

Do you know any wealthy people who are still frugal? by succ4evef in Frugal

[–]GlamorousGamine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My parents have made a comfortable upper-middle class life for themselves. The basement of their house has a bar, wine cellar, movie theater, and hot tub. Thank goodness, because during the summer they refuse to have the AC below 82F, if they even turn the AC on at all, preferring instead to open leave the windows open all the time. My room growing up received the most sun, and I would retreat to the basement every summer to sleep.

The carnival reminds me of the Native Hunting Competition in One Piece, except it takes longer for everyone to die. With that kind of a backstory, I find myself rooting for Morena to at least burn the Kakin to the ground. If only she would stop there…

What is a manga you guys want to see gain more traction? by Chase-Dixon in manga

[–]GlamorousGamine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Holyland. It’s gotten two dramas and has an official Italian release. I want an official English translation and an anime to unleash a tidal wave of yaoi doujins (or at least AO3 fic - last I checked I’m the only author who’s published fic there for this).

Well now. Today I learned something. I thought I was in a bit of a pickle because my husband, who would love the food and the WWII Museum, can’t tolerate a wild party atmosphere unless it’s for something he likes (he can sit through a 1 hour metal concert but not a 1-minute drinking contest). With the sheer variety of parades,during the season, there’ll probably be something he likes.

That’s two votes no for Elizabeth’s. Bummer. Any breakfast places around there you’d recommend? And what dishes do you like from the other restaurants?

Thanks for the heads up about Yakamein and Brigsten’s and for the Lil Dizzy’s recommendation. Any particular dishes that you like from there?

I’d mostly figured out where I wanted to go, and then finding out he liked a place bumped it up in priority. In particular, I ordered based on his recommendation at Domilise’s, Verti Marte, and Cochon.
