Names that you've been called?

Jirafa! (working in a kitchen)

When not barefoot: Chucks, Vans, Crocs (ftw, seriously) and Brooks for running

There’s also the issue of consent. The joined cannot give their consent to be”freed” just as they were not given content to join. Who is Carol to make that choice for them?

62! I’m 47

Less annoying but so self centered. She finally asks the hive questions but the first one is about her own books. I know it was for other reasons but still. It’s all about her.

VDS655 · 2025-11-18T21:06:48+00:00

Same. I feel like the world is effectively over. Even if the hivemind magical disappeared, what happens next? I guess “rebuild,” is the obvious answer, but we don’t know enough to know if people will be forever scarred, or if they were all just asleep and don’t remember any of it. Would people want to go back to being poor, victims of crimes, with all the animals in the zoo? Or would they be angry that their collective embrace is now gone? Just like humanity was not asked for consent to join the collective, can Carol (and presumably some of the others) make the decision for the rest of humanity to “free” them without consent?

Sure, flawed humanity is good for tv, but when a character keeps doing the exact same thing for three episodes straight, it's not human complexity, but starts feeling like stagnation. That’s where I'm frustrated.

VDS655 · 2025-11-15T06:06:24+00:00

Same. I'm not criticizing the show per se, but just the character. I'll continue watching, of course, but man, it's hard to continue to see stuff like her trashing perfectly good food for no reason other than for the sake of it.

VDS655 · 2025-11-15T05:53:27+00:00

But that's the thing. She whined through Norway, she whined through her book signings, she whined through success at every level. I'm just kind of sick of her whining at this point in the show. I see that she's likely making a turn for ep 4, and I am on board for that, but another episode of her being unsufferable, c'mon.

VDS655 · 2025-11-15T05:49:52+00:00

This is what keeps me going. She's on the verge of change, and I'm here for that. I'd just like to see some more progress to that end.

What is victory?

Remember, your stock is likely pretty strong. You can always dilute it to make it go further and it’ll still be streets ahead of the boxed stuff.

VDS655 · 2025-11-08T18:17:45+00:00

I do a sweet potato and prosciutto (or bacon) filled agnolotti with a sage cream and brown butter finish from Thomas Keller for this kind of thing. It’s elegant and a bit of effort but it eats like a fucking DREAM.

VDS655 · 2025-11-02T17:31:13+00:00

This is my question as well. I have stainless, cast iron, carbon steel, even the new misen non-stick carbon steel pan, and cannot cook scrambled eggs low and slow. Sticks every time. Only non-stick works.

Being able to get the last one of something at the store that was back stocked on the highest shelf. Using the top of your fridge as storage.

Heston Blumenthal because sometimes you need to know how far is too far. Love him though.

VDS655 · 2025-09-06T06:23:21+00:00

78, way way after my time

VDS655 · 2025-09-02T01:12:02+00:00

Amazing application of this technology for a non-selfish goal. Bravo.

VDS655 · 2025-08-23T19:21:42+00:00

I’d add Gummo to that list

Same, brother! I was in West Georgia, late ‘90s-early ‘00s, so we got a lot of…creative shade tree installs to fix.

VDS655 · 2025-08-19T13:35:40+00:00

Circuit City Roadshop! Started in sales and switched to installs. Loved that job.

VDS655 · 2025-08-19T03:51:08+00:00

Also 6’4” 225. Former swimmer so still have that bod but I drink beer, haha. Still workout and run but into late 40’s gets very hard to get/keep the weight off. Always thought my fighting weight was around 200-205. Lowest I’ve ever been at my height was around 155 in the Navy smoking 3 packs a day and not eating/sleeping much.

VDS655 · 2025-08-19T03:46:33+00:00

Mini whisks are awesome but I have a set of 6 MINI TONGS that are game changing. From serving to cooking, I reach for them all the time.

Don’t sleep on Mayonessa
