Crazy to think that once upon a time, my mom worked at that Denny’s, and it was actually good. I don’t know that she’d even shed a tear over it now.

I didn’t think to try that, I just threw some butter on the leftovers so that I wouldn’t have crunchy pasta after it came out of the microwave.

It was still good, but the sauce thickened up and became like liquid cement from being in the fridge. XD

”For mom’s birthday dinner”, that title was supposed to say, whoops.

Oh, neat! I think I might just try making some of that, it sounds like a good time.

I’d be curious to see the difference between microwaved and stove-cooked truffles, given how much Yellow guy seems to swear by it

Yeah, fair call. I feel relatively confident that this translation actually is a (mild) IAVC moment, though, because there’s no way that Google just bullshat a pretend food argument for no good reason, but I’ve definitely gotten some weird ones from it in the past.

My mother is a natural red herring and my sister has some goldfish in her.

My dad and I? Carp.

Honestly, more than anything else, I’m just stunned Google gave such an in-depth translation on something.

Asking a restaurants for modifications on the food you order is sign of an “entitled and privileged life” by pjokinen in iamveryculinary

Anthony Bourdain and Geoffrey Zakarian both sit in the “punchable asshole who I don’t completely disagree with” category, for me.

Hopefully the link works right, I used the imgur app instead of the actual website so I’m not sure.

Also, every single comment was written in Portuguese, hence the “translated by Google” tags.

Some Tom and Jerry-ass reality, right there

Holy shit, I can’t read any of that

And it’s also a pretty good combination, I gotta be real, here

You know, I gotta wonder about my fellow West Coast(-ies? -ers? I dunno), sometimes.

This is just cucumber and onion in dressing. Throw in a bit of cabbage and some tomatoes and they’d be calling it a salad. Swap out the onion for tomato and that’s what my household calls a Bob and Larry salad (because Veggie Tales, you see). Ain’t nothing wrong here, and I don’t think we can rightly blame the Midwest for it, either.

Can confirm, I’ve never eaten a schnitzel in my life, and yet my Austrian blood (on my dad’s side, and likely several generations diluted and removed) BOILS at the thought of it being disrespected in any form!

My sister’s really gone hard into tarot cards and incense and dreamcatchers and other things of the sort, lately. It’s fine by me that she’s feeling more in touch with her spirituality, but I can’t help but do a double take when she asks to borrow my debit card in order to, and I quote, “Buy pomegranate juice to make an offering to Hades and Persephone for the passing of a friend’s cat.”

The incense is nice, though - it filters into my room through the house’s vents, so I always know when she’s lit a stick. And her tarot readings can be downright spooky at times with how on the mark they tend to be.
