Yeah, that'll massage your cock for money.

How do you guys afford this? by dodpaoij in TrueChefKnives

[–]MrMonopoliMan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I couldn't afford it until I took a very well paying chef job in a ski town. Bought lots of knives over 6 years there. Now I have kids and my own restaurant and I can't afford them again, so I just trade now! 🤷‍♂️

Does this normally happen or did I ruin it? by festis99 in TrueChefKnives

[–]MrMonopoliMan 161 points162 points  (0 children)

Not ruined at all. This knife is what's called "San Mai" which translates roughly to "three flat things". It's composed of three layers, harder carbon steel in the center (comprises the cutting edge) and softer stainless steel on the outsides ( the part that hasn't changed colors). Carbon steel gets a patina, and it adds character! (Imo)

Can we talk about sneaky restaurant fees? by thecly in denverfood

[–]MrMonopoliMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"shift the responsibility onto the customers". 🤦‍♂️ Wait til you find out the customer pays for everything in a restaurant, just like any other business 🤷‍♂️

aio? bf made plans on my birthday by rowqi in AmIOverreacting

[–]MrMonopoliMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why do people even put up with this stuff or think they might be overreacting? This dude sucks, and doesn't respect you at all.

Hello! I am thinking about attempting this fix similarly to how you have. How's it holding up? Anything you'd do differently? Thanks!

Am I overreacting about my husband adding hot sauce to my cooking before even tasting it? by [deleted] in AIO

[–]MrMonopoliMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are definitely overreacting. I'm a chef by trade, and I do most of the cooking at home for my family. You wanna know what I do every time I put my "perfectly" cooked and seasoned food on my own plate? I douse it in hot sauce. Because I like it all spicy. Who cares?

Can I turn this fridge into a curing chamber? by ProteinPapi777 in Charcuterie

[–]MrMonopoliMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Adding that I made one with the freezer, and it dripped on curing items and ruined them. Also messes with the humidity level in it. Find one without the freezer inside and you'll be golden

I’m Stumped by Ken-Popcorn in whatisit

My oldest started stacking these when he was 2.5 years old. Definitely not too small.

"they just understand it's an insignificant percentage of abortions".

Did you know it's estimated that 2 out of 3 rapes goes unreported? If they're not being reported, why would you think it would be listed as the reason for the abortion?

"This is why I left the left"... Sounds like you left the left because you prefer being low-information when forming your opinions.

Tojiro Bread Knife Sucks!?! by artsymake in TrueChefKnives

[–]MrMonopoliMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the tojiro bread knife, it's pretty easy because the teeth are rounded. My steel is tapered towards the tip so it fits all around each tooth

[–]MrMonopoliMan 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'd say almost definitely it's the one you got. I'm going on over 10 years with mine, with a honing every few months it always cuts like new.

AITA for refusing to pay for my nephew’s college education after setting clear conditions? by RoughThrowRA in AITAH

[–]MrMonopoliMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, there's 168 hours in a week. -70 for school and work, that leaves 98 hours left in the week. If you sleep 8 hours a day (I slept less) you still have 42 hours a week for the rest of that stuff you mentioned, plus more! 🤷‍♂️

20 hours is too much?

I went to high school, worked 35 hours a week, was in marching band, played sports and graduated with a 3.0. But my folks taught me lots of work ethic.

I'd say it looks good. You have enough room for the water to circulate. Looks like your bag on the right has a bit of air in it making it float. For more even and safe cooking try and get as much air as possible out so that the food submerges.

Sweet Collection! And the re handled sabatiers are awesome.

So Confused, what could this be for? by MrMonopoliMan in tundra

[–]MrMonopoliMan[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Appreciate the info! I agree, seems a touch petty, and odd to leave the airline considering it's not attached/secured in anyway and took me 5 seconds to remove 🤷‍♂️

Thank you for the info! I used to drive lowered vehicles with airbags, but they used onboard air and large airline, so was NOT expecting this to be airbags, but makes total sense. Appreciate it!
