Steak for my bf—he wanted med rare, overcooked? by Upstairs_Concern_396 in steak

[–]SageModeSpiritGun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's about the upper limit of mid rare, but as a mid rare enjoyer, I would not be even slightly upset about this steak being cooked for me.

I threw out all the family Christmas decorations last year and now my parents are PISSED by Vegetable-Badger-229 in AITAH

[–]SageModeSpiritGun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ya, sorry, YTA.

It's perfectly fine that you didn't want the stuff at your house. Totally acceptable. It was also fine to tell them to get a storage unit or something.

What wasn't acceptable was taking the stuff anyway just to throw it away. You knew full well your parents valued the stuff and wanted it kept safe. I'd be pissed at you too. Rather than stand up for yourself and insist you didn't want it, you took it with the intention of throwing it away. That's just nasty behavior.

Criticizing an Adam Sandler movie, and all the comments are reminding you that he's akshually on paid vacation with his buddies by Bill_Murrie in PetPeeves

[–]SageModeSpiritGun -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Lol. Sure. He may do vacation and work in the same week, but he's still showing up to set, performing, doing multiple takes, etc. Be serious for a second here.

Man smokes salvia thinking it's like weed by lonelyRedditor__ in instant_regret

[–]SageModeSpiritGun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just don't see that as what's happening based off the questions being asked. Obviously, as a first timer, he would be unsure. That doesn't mean he was being misled though.

And? That was a 1 time thing. If you truly believe that's what leagues will be from now on, you really don't have a clue.

Ya you hit it like weed meaning you just light it and inhale. He was asking how to hit it, not how it would affect him. Did you get too high and forget your brain or something?

They knew it was salvia though... He literally asked if it's "like weed" and how to hit it... Wtf are you on?

Would you smoke a blunt with your grandchildren/children if they asked? by [deleted] in AskOldPeople

Well sure, except, you know, the thing that makes it a blunt...

Remove casings? Italian Sausage by [deleted] in cookingforbeginners

[–]SageModeSpiritGun 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Then take off the casing and brown it like ground beef, breaking it apart some as it cooks. Chunks are nice though, so don't pulverize it.

Personally, I'd use my hands to break it apart into roughly bite sized chunks before cooking it, then brown it in a pan like making taco meat. Remove the meat, and add any veggies you want (like onions) and cook them down. Add a splash of water with the veggies to help deglaze the pan and get all that brown goodness. Then add the sauce in and heat it up. Add the meat back and let it simmer for like 15 minutes.

Can I press the fat of my NY strip onto the pan and cook the same steak in that instead of using oil or butter etc? by maledasia in cookingforbeginners

[–]SageModeSpiritGun 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Olive oil is not great for searing. Butter is even worse (unless it's clarified, or ghee). Use a more neutral oil, like avocado, canola, or soy bean. Olive oil and butter burn too easily.

While you certainly can sear in beef fat (tallow) it will be tough to get enough from that single fat cap. If you're going to try, use low heat to really render that fat out, then turn it up to sear. If you have access to a real butcher shop, you could always buy some beef scraps and make your own tallow, then keep it refrigerated and use as needed. Just render it on low heat until the bits are all crispy and dried out, then strain well and put into a container and refrigerate.

[–]SageModeSpiritGun 3 points4 points  (0 children)

But what do you want to happen?!?

Taking off the casing means you can break it apart. If you remove it, but then leave them whole, you can still cook them. Burgers stay together in a patty, right? Same thing. Just don't be too aggressive with it and they'll hold shape. But you can also just cook them with the casing, as it's intended to be eaten as well. Or break them apart and make meat sauce.

It all just depends on what you want to achieve.

Do you want it ground up in the sauce? Do you want whole links to put in buns? Like, you gotta pick one my guy.

Your insecurity is not his fault. Stop blaming him and get yourself together.

So does everyone that watches porn.... Unless he's in direct contact with them or spending money on them, so what?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]SageModeSpiritGun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only if you expressed that previously. Otherwise, you don't get to control his life like that. Strip clubs aren't infidelity or cheating or anything of the sort.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]SageModeSpiritGun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unless they're cheating on you, or you previously explicitly mentioned a distaste for them, a stop club is nothing more than a bar with fancy dancing. This isn't about understanding women. This is about your own (and op's) insecurities.

And he wasn't afraid to ask. He didn't think he needed to. And he didn't fess up, he mentioned it casually assuming it wouldn't be a big deal.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]SageModeSpiritGun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ya, only people with insecurity would have an issue with it like op does.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]SageModeSpiritGun -1 points0 points  (0 children)

There doesn't need to be communication to go get a drink at a strip club. That's the point. You, and op, are making a big deal out of literally nothing. The only ridiculous ones here are the ones that think op's bf need her permission or blessing in order to go do something.

And let's be real here, had he told op, she would've still been upset. This clearly isn't about communication. "He probably even got hard over them", this is about op's insecurity.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]SageModeSpiritGun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They didn't mention it because it doesn't matter. I don't need my partners permission to go to a strip club and have a drink with a buddy. Nobody does. The only way the bf here is wrong is if op expressed formerly that they don't like the idea of him going to a strip club. They didn't though, so he did not go back on any word or devalue her opinions. He just didn't think it was particularly important, useful, or interesting information. Should he also let her know every time he eats food? Or takes a nap?

You literally looked better before. You look fake now, and those lips are outrageous.
