I was thinking the same thing at first, but realized there's irony value in beating a politician with the thing he voted to tax.
Which is what I was going for on that comment. Great minds and all that.
-
loading a thing and some water into a machine and having a cup of tea come out exactly right.
Like http://www.special-t.com/ from Nestlé?
No George in those commercials. And only in continental Europe it seems.
-
And Japan. Which is the link I clicked on, because that's the language on there I'm most familiar with.
-
status late lunch. Like every day this week: back ribs (leftovers). Been saving all the bones, and will make a pork broth for split-pea soup this weekend.

Meh. If you're going to do that, tea things are available for Keurig, and one can actually buy it outside a few special-snowflake countries. From a quick glance it does look like Nestlé may have a wider variety of teas available, though, so there is that.
-
If you're going to do that,
Why would you ? After all it's only dark and hot water.
-
Because it tastes infinitely better than that vile sludge other people seem to enjoy drinking. And because caffeine. :)
-
-
Not the vile sludge I was thinking of, but I won't disagree with you on that one.
-
Now see, if maccha was as available as coffee, this would all be moot. But like keurig, its expensive.

Status: Pappadeaux for lunch. 11oz Atlantic salmon yvette with a crème brûlée for dessert. I am so stuffed I don't think I'll eat until morning.

Pappadeaux for lunch.
For some reason I read that as someone's name, and thought, "You ate @apapadimoulis?!?"
Then I read on and thought, "Wait, @apapadimoulis is a fish?! "I'm so distracted...

If you're ever in Texas, you should go. They're pretty nice for a chain restaurant.
-
They're not just in Texas. They're also in Colorado, Arizona, Illinois, Ohio, New Mexico, Georgia, and Alabama.
-
i don't have an expresso machine, and sometime i make latte. it's not even difficult.
are you really that lazy @fox?
No, I have better shit to do with my mornings than sitting around at the stove frothing up milk.
-
If you're ever in Texas, you should try Perry's. Their pork chops are amazing and the lobster tail appetizer is better than even Pappadeaux.
-

I'm in Texas now, and have been for some time.

I would hope so at those prices.

t I can't see how they can be worse than Yodel
Does Yodel do things like leave expensive "signature required" packages on your doorstep in plain view of the street...in snow?

What is 'snow'?
In all seriousness, it hardly ever snows where I am; one day a year if I'm lucky.
I've not heard of Yodel doing that, but it wouldn't surprise me.

I don't know about on the doorstep, but I know they will happily leave them in a safe place... aka your bins. On bin day. Before the bins have been collected.
-

So about as often as it stops raining?
-
Also they're cheaper on... Sundays?
-
I've never personally had problems with Yodel.
We used them as the corporate courier of choice for a while at work though. We don't now.
-
Bins bins bins bins bins. Bins. Bins? Bins bins.

Dude. Bins bins bins.

what? you don't know what snow is?!
we need to fix that! quick! to the ski slopes!
-

It's snow joke.
to the ski slopes!
It's all downhill from there.

We didn't have any issues with them after that incident. Admittedly I don't recall ever getting anything delivered by them after that incident, but I still cringe when I think about it.

Does Yodel charge a fantasy fee?

Ah. Well if you're not dedicated, you're merely... available? I dunno, not even going to try to make a joke here...

Are you near Houston? Goode's BBQ.

Open BBQ, bench seating, home-made sauce-- embodies everything about "BBQ".

The joke is completely ruined now. Better toss it in the bin.

No, Dallas. Houston's about 4 hours away. But noted in case I make a trip.

I've always liked this one green one... Tropius or something? I always like the green ones best.

Status: Today has been a very shitty day. I commiserated with some other employees during lunch, and we're all saying the same thing: everybody loves everything about this company EXCEPT THE COMMUTE.
That office move is going to kill the company. I don't care if it's a nice building and their per-square-feet cost was affordable, there's 2 employees who have already left due to the commute and I'm on the knife-edge.
-
Status: tomorrow is going to be interesting. Tomorrow I get to do an Eleventh Doctor impersonation to certain people in the office.
"Don't play games with me. Don't ever think you are capable of that."
-
Are you going to say that while wearing a bow tie and a fez? Or do you favour the stetson?
-
I'd do with a more John Hurt aesthetic.
-
Eleventh Doctor
John Hurt
Does not compute.
bow tie and a fez
Do this. Do it often enough that people start seeing you come in wearing the fez and bow tie and start asking "Who pissed off @Arantor this time?"
-
I don't tend to give my enemies clues in advance.
