You should not eat babies.→[More:]
Just don't do it! Don't eat babies.
But.. but their bones haven't firmed up - baby is the prime time to start pickling them (caveat; I much prefer roasted quail over balut).
Lots and lots of coarse salt then the fridge overnight. Cooled boiling vinegar with raw suagar and dried chilies. Mix & forget in the fridge for a few months and... voila.
Baby-eating is an unnecessary cultural taboo. I have yet to hear a compelling argument against it, so it must obviously be a product of the liberal media.
no, k. the movie! dragons and shit all be flying around.
i read the books when i had The Great Death. i've read them since, when my brain was more functional. they're pretty okay. they raise their level as their presumed audience ages. number two is el suck but the others are a-okay.
now, a great movie this year that no one liked, that movie is called the brothers grimm.
UNBELIEVABLE GOOD. it's me and a friend watching this and laughing like maniacs the whole time while the rest of the audience is terrible silent. i don't get why. i think people who don't like this movie must suffer from some sort of terrible dumbness.
i know this girl, friend of the gf. she and the gf are (according to said gf) founding members of the tall, hot, bitchy girls club. anyway friend of, as i like to call her, she's a marine bio student and apparently gets woken up every weekend morning by the also asleep bf of friend of, who is, to refer to one p. griffin, trying to plow her.
i'm reading this stephen ambrose book right now, undaunted courage. meh. it's just meh. but i've got a book called black lamb, gray falcon by rebecca west that i am about to tear up like a book tearing orangutan over christmas break. i went to bosnia and croatia recently and they are both highly radical and also awesome.
this sleeping pills help you sleep shit i took isn't working a goddamn bit i got the manic bigtime.
Contrary to populist knowledge, babies taste like shit. They hardly even smell sweet. Sure, sure the fleshly round wobbly bit atop the neck stalk smells good, and probably tastes pretty good as well - if it wasn't randomly spewing deadly acids.
But the rest of a baby? 98% poo. The other 2% is comprised of deadly acids and venom, piss, vinegar and hate.
it's me and a friend watching this and laughing like maniacs the whole time while the rest of the audience is terrible silent.
Dude, that happens to me all the time. I laugh at all the funny parts, but no one else in the theater gets it!
(I CAN sleep, but I SHOULD work, so I lurk here...bad compromise).
Also, I had the lughing when no one else experience at I Heart Huckabees. The boy & I were on the floor, but everyone else hated it. WTF? Actually, I think I should rent it again tonight.
