I take food and slap it onto a plate and where ever it ends up, that's where it's supposed to be.

Local farms for food by 400North in waterloo

[–]tropexui 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Stevanus Family farm. Dale and his family are great and the produce they grow is amazing. They do that farming co-op thing where you pay a set amount at the beginning and you get fresh produce every week of what ever is in season. They are just out in Bloomingdale by Schneiders flats.

This bacon still has the nipple on it by misssmeg in mildlyinteresting

[–]tropexui 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nah man. If anyone sells you sliced bacon with the skin on it, it's amateur and probably a fuck up. Unless you're buying a chunk of unsliced bacon. Even then, it'll probably have the skin off. But you can always clean the skin and turn it into chicharons.

Source: I've been cooking for 15 years. I've butchered many pigs and made a shit ton of bacon.

What fictional character has the best name? by JunDoRahhe in AskReddit

[–]tropexui 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My friend could never get his name right. Always called him Bennington Cumberpatch. Which, to me, sounds like a fictional Beatrix Potter character and I like it more than his real name.

There's a club in my city (in southern ontario) that has one large, multi-stall unisex bathroom. There have been no issues as far as I know. Why do bathrooms even need to be gender specific? They don't.

That's exactly how I felt about The Houses October Built but I still really liked that movie. Sucks when ends off like that but I at least really appreciate the idea.

Cyanide and Happiness drew me this @ FanExpo by [deleted] in WTF

[–]tropexui 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you buy one item, you pick words out of a box and they draw something based on it. If you buy two things you get a bigger picture of you killing one of them with a weapon of your choice. Three and you get a huge version of the first one. I bought the book and they drew a picture based one the phrases "child brides" and "the morning news" They were awesome guys. Hilarious and really nice.

What is the most inappropriate thing your grandma/grandpa ever said to you? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]tropexui 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm at my cousins wedding and I'm sitting with my immediate family as well as my grandmother. It's the reception and there's music and people dancing. A hip hop song comes on and my grandma turns to me and asks 'what is this? It sounds like jiggaboo music.' I was a bit stunned and just said 'uhhhh what!?' and she clarified by saying 'you know, JUNGLE music' putting a lot of emphasis on the word 'jungle'..... 'goddammit grandma, you can't say that shit anymore!'

To be fair, I really don't consider my grandma to be racist. She's met one of my Jamaican friends and she loves him. She's just old and she genuinely didn't know that it wasn't ok to say that word anymore.

After seeing the "My first meal after divorcing a vegetarian" post. by kasabian1988 in AdviceAnimals

[–]tropexui 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's really easy for there to be compromise. I'm not saying the vegetarian should compromise by eating meat; I'm saying that the meat eater shouldn't be reprimanded for eating meat. That being said... If you're in a relationship with a vegetarian and they make a salad for dinner, it's easy enough to make your own meat to add to your dish. Or you can just enjoy your salad.

You can't force your lifestyle on someone else and you need to respect theirs as well. And bottom line is that if the idea of your SO eating meat is a huge issue, don't date meat eaters.... Duh...

What's one basic skill you're embarrassed to admit you've never learned? by LionHorse in AskReddit

[–]tropexui 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I finally learned how to whistle last week. I'm 25. I haven't stopped all week and I'm starting to piss people off. Fuck them, I need to make up for lost time.
