Y'all know the story of Miles cover of that song? Supposedly Miles was driving around the Upper East Side and saw David walking down the street. He pu...

I think our perception of originality in music (or whatever art form) is often just a projection unto the external world of our own experience of bein...

Congrats to @"Wayfarer" for being promoted to mod at long last.

I use Logic as well. Quite a powerful program. I've been using it for over 10 years and am still learning it. It's a bit of an endless rabbit hole.

In a way, yes. I made a thread awhile back about the gestation periods of art forms. I'm of the position that music has peaked and is on the decline. ...

It's a bawdy celebration of his own depravity.

The best evidence in support of my Critique of Pure Cucumbers.

This is clearly a mod conspiracy. I recommend that @"T Clark" open an incredulous feedback thread about it.

What I want to know is how you posted a blank message.

I know. :wink: And yes, I'm apparently too normcore for cuces.

I'm explaining tomato's dominance. What do you mean by puree? I think of that just meaning anything put in a blender. I love using chopsticks because,...

Pit a fresh, in-season tomato, salted, never refrigerated, against the same for a cucumber. Who wins?

I do enjoy a Greek salad with cucumber, but I'm more likely to make something heartier like a chickpea salad with similar ingredients sans cucumber. I...

It's unique, I'll grant you that.

Fair enough, I'm sure I would enjoy that. But still, I would choose mustard greens, mushrooms, or broccoli to be prepared with similar ingredients, al...

Anti-cucumber is a strong term. I just don't spend my own money on them; there's plenty of other vegetables I'll reach for instead. How do you eat the...

Posting a link to an item from British cuisine that features cucumber does nothing to shift my opinion on them.

I don't know much earlier Stravinsky, so this is pretty interesting: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6XkkbS3l9iw

I trusted that you weren't that insane.

I suppose we all seek attention in different ways.

I believe it's braised. It's super tender, but the skin is rather gelatinous rather than crispy as in Peking Duck. There's a photo in this article.

Good produce is notoriously hard to find here. People think of New York as a city where you can get and do anything your heart desires, but it's not t...

I specifically and regularly make salads without cucumbers. Pickles, on the other hand can literally be anything, although I must admit I’m quite part...

Ah yes, that video did cross my mind as I posted, but it didn’t prevent my critique.

I’ve never understood the appeal of the cucumber. It essentially has no flavor. I highly doubt anyone’s favorite vegetable is cucumber.

Wot do you mean, eh? I must say I love the random and unintelligible nature of these two sentences back to back. It feels like an absurd standup comed...

Doubtless this explains my confusion. Sadly I live in a big city and have literally no outdoor space to my name whatsoever.

My favorite cathartic angry music is probably Nine Inch Nails. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cK4FVqIsz1E

I just assumed she put rocks in it. Now you're getting the hang of the foodbox. @"Jamal" and I are proud.

Scientifically, how was her meatloaf gray?

But you're far more self aware than a 13 or 17 year old. Which is what counts. You idiot.

Good to know. I like to think my immature days of insulting members that annoy me are over, but one never knows.

So should I only tag you if I'm insulting you?

Your loaf looks kind of bad, but also kind of good. Also, are you purposefully not tagging Clarky in protest of Banno's rather egotistical complaint o...

Nonsense. I smoke American Spirits, which come in all colors of the rainbow.

So where does your interest in pigs stem from? I read it as a sensitivity to their generally "human" characteristics; emotion, magnanimity, sociality,...

I respect and admire your sensitivity to pigs. I wish I had the emotional energy to match you, but my life is too full of other sensitivities to be ab...

I think even I'm beginning to get tired of the pig posts, which is saying a lot, Posty. What about good ol' Wilson?

It's like lists of worst to best airports. They're calculated by percentage of delayed flights, as if a 1% differential in delays definitively makes o...

My new theory is that you're Benny reincarnated.

For no logical reason I can think of, my mental image of Clarky resembles Benjamin Franklin. Do with that information what you will.

I didn't know you were on reddit, and I didn't know you listened to rap. My mental image of you has changed.

Does this have anything to do with the phrase "Bob Loblaw Lobs Law Bomb"?

My attempts at a 180proof-ian idiolect were grossly foiled by my failed attempts at forum formatting. Imagine a lot more bolded and underlined type in...

True, that was an ad hominem, to which I apologize, although I would continue to describe your attacks on Sam's ideas as fundamentalist. No nerve was ...

Thanks, subscribed. Your veracity in research certainly seems strong, and the out-of-hand dismissals of fundamentalists like @"180 Proof" only point t...

Were you planning on cooking the bacon?
