[00:09:53] <SoyGuest10360> You never struck me as a beyond kind of guy, buzz: https://www.hardees.com
[00:09:54] <systemd> ^ 03Beyond Famous Star® with Cheese FAQ
[00:15:00] <TheMightyBuzzard> SoyGuest10360, https://www.hardees.com large combo + extra 1/3lb patty
[00:15:01] <systemd> ^ 032/3lb. Monster Thickburger&reg;
[00:15:23] <RandomFactor> Work is mollified. Hopefully when I reread my missive Monday I won't groan and hide my head.
[00:16:06] <RandomFactor> I think i was actually insightful. Which probably isn't a good sign.
[00:16:27] * RandomFactor drools a little
[00:18:27] <SoyGuest10360> I have eaten this evening, but yes, the idea of the 2/3rd lb did kinda make me drool
[00:18:45] <TheMightyBuzzard> full pound if you ask for a third patty
[00:18:54] * RandomFactor drools a little
[00:19:35] <SoyGuest10360> there's a new pakistani foodery just around the corner, open until the small hours at weekends, and we've not tried their burgers yet, it's kinda tempting...
[00:19:58] <RandomFactor> When i think burgers, I don't think Pakistani
[00:20:06] <SoyGuest10360> which reminds me - open street map needs editing...
[00:20:46] <RandomFactor> Course I think Indian even less
[00:21:32] <TheMightyBuzzard> been putting away 2-3k calories just for dinner all week and lost like 5lbs. yay construction work.
[00:22:34] <AzumaHazuki> who goes to pakistani place for burgers?
[00:22:52] <TheMightyBuzzard> everyone in pakistan?
[00:23:02] <RandomFactor> Logical
[00:23:14] <AzumaHazuki> burgers is not exactly pakistani
[00:23:21] <AzumaHazuki> would go for heavy spicy curry, rather
[00:23:42] <SoyGuest10360> Had that for lunch :)
[00:24:00] <SoyGuest10360> they do a pizza with both lamb and chicken tikka on it!
[00:24:30] <RandomFactor> Chicken Vindaloo, add uranium.
[00:26:10] <SoyGuest10360> had the lamb tikka masala extra hot, and it was still mild to my tastes, so they've clearly worked out what the local levels of spicing are (basically sub-zero - I have to add tabasco to chillis in order to make them bland.)
[00:26:33] <AzumaHazuki> no one thinks white people can handle spicy for some reason
[00:26:54] <SoyGuest10360> I thought Finland was bad, until I moved to Estonia.
[00:27:07] <RandomFactor> Mrs. Renfro's Ghost Pepper Salsa is about where I fall.
[00:27:24] <TheMightyBuzzard> me too but only cause it sucks not cause it's too hot
[00:27:40] <RandomFactor> I actually like the flavor.
[00:27:54] <SoyGuest10360> As a brit, I can handly a jalfrezi and a vindaloo no problem. Finding them here is the tricky thing. Fortunately we have a couple of good cuzza places in town though.
[00:28:04] <RandomFactor> Mostly when they heat things up they toss the flavor
[00:28:44] <TheMightyBuzzard> i'm entirely the wrong kind of indian but i can do as much heat comfortably as any dot not feather
[00:29:30] <TheMightyBuzzard> i like habanero flavor a LOT better than ghost pepper. it's probably my least favorite flavored pepper.
[00:29:44] <SoyGuest10360> We have a great Sri Lankan chef in our local ex-pat bar, and he does a range. His mild tikkas are to die for, so I don't mind the lack of heat.
[00:29:48] <RandomFactor> I detest habanero flavor, heat's fine tho
[00:30:08] <AzumaHazuki> it's all delicious :9
[00:30:19] * AzumaHazuki suspects she may be a bit of a masochist...
[00:30:41] <TheMightyBuzzard> well you do keep arguing with ME.
[00:30:43] <RandomFactor> also Mrs. Renfro's doesn't taste ghost-peppery anyway. More of a typical smoky salsa flavor with actual heat
[00:30:58] <AzumaHazuki> that would make me a sadist
[00:31:14] * RandomFactor ponders the definition of insanity
[00:31:39] <TheMightyBuzzard> nah, i think it's masochism on both our parts.
[00:31:48] <SoyGuest10360> match made in heaven
[00:32:03] <RandomFactor> SoyGuest10360 I wasn't gonna go there
[00:32:18] <SoyGuest10360> Sometimes my #shitlord leaks out
[00:32:42] <TheMightyBuzzard> eat more cheese
[00:33:26] <RandomFactor> Sure it's cheese? I think it depends
[00:33:36] <SoyGuest10360> I do need to go cheese shopping, need some other delicatessen delicacies too.
[00:34:08] <SoyGuest10360> have an amazing one made with port wine on the go at the moment
[00:34:28] <RandomFactor> Wait a sec, don't you get the unpasteurized stuff over there?
[00:34:39] <SoyGuest10360> In the EU, probably not
[00:35:02] <RandomFactor> was gonna say it gave you an unfair advantage
[00:35:14] <SoyGuest10360> lthough that might just be anti-EU rhetoric I heard in the UK
[00:35:45] <RandomFactor> Breexit?
[00:37:31] <RandomFactor> https://go.discovery.com
[00:37:33] <systemd> ^ 03Shark Week | Watch Full Episodes & More! - Discovery
[00:38:30] <SoyGuest10360> More like back in the 80s, we've always had euroskeptic undercurrents
[00:38:55] <SoyGuest10360> trying to make out bananas straight, or something like that
[00:39:30] <RandomFactor> I've waited patiently as EU inevitably followed the path the US took. So far I have not been surprised. Until Brexit.
[00:40:15] <RandomFactor> It is the sound of inevitability.
[00:43:50] <SoyGuest10360> brexit's rallying cry was rather similar to your bostonian tea non-drinkers
[00:45:45] <RandomFactor> Funny thing about that. THere's a Masonic Lodge in Boston that met that night. The minutes of the meeting state that it was opened, did some normal business, then put the lodge 'at ease' (recess). It was called back to order several hours later. No other mention is made of the goings on.
[00:48:17] <SoyGuest10360> Not even something mysterious like "The deed was done."
[00:48:38] <RandomFactor> nor Mischief accomplished.
[00:48:56] <SoyGuest10360> which reminds me, I need to see if there are any new Drunk Histories, I haven't seen a new one for ages.
[00:49:15] <RandomFactor> Mischief Managed
[00:49:35] <RandomFactor> I keep seeing that and almost clicking it. Worthwhile?
[00:49:50] <SoyGuest10360> Depends how much you like silliness
[00:50:07] <RandomFactor> Silliness is spice, not sauce
[00:50:25] <SoyGuest10360> I like it because I learn a fair bit about little corners of US history that otherwise would remain dark
[00:50:38] <RandomFactor> nod
[00:51:36] <SoyGuest10360> it's weird when a year later there's a reference to some 1920s cultural thing and I nod my head and then think "how the fuck do I know about that?!?"
[00:52:14] <SoyGuest10360> like the death row baseball team
[00:55:01] <SoyGuest10360> UK tried a few series, but it didn't catch on.
[00:55:28] <SoyGuest10360> I was asleep during history lessons at school, so I wish there were more UK episodes, I might finally learn something about my own country.
[00:56:35] <SoyGuest10360> maybe we need /Drunk Current Affairs/
[00:56:38] <SoyGuest10360> I'd watch that.
[00:56:48] <RandomFactor> It would be a heck of a step up
[00:57:06] <SoyGuest10360> It would actually start to make sense.
[00:57:22] <SoyGuest10360> It only sounds stupid because he's drunk, it can't be that stupid. please no.
[00:57:25] <TheMightyBuzzard> we should get chromas to host and have ari and ef as regular guests
[00:58:36] <SoyGuest10360> Ari seems like the annoying one at the party who never gets drunk.
[00:59:03] <TheMightyBuzzard> true but he's plenty wacky even sober
[00:59:43] <AzumaHazuki> Ari's still a better person than most of the site membership :/
[00:59:49] <RandomFactor> ok, read up a bit on death row baseball. I must now work this into conversations randomly.
[00:59:51] <SoyGuest10360> He keeps sniffing that mastic
[01:00:06] <TheMightyBuzzard> nah, ari's got long game shitposting going.
[01:00:31] <SoyGuest10360> RandomFactor: exactly - now you know why I like DH
[01:00:44] * RandomFactor nods
[01:00:50] <TheMightyBuzzard> i have faith he could stay in character though
[01:01:16] <RandomFactor> Ari has a very particular lens he applies to the world.
[01:01:23] <TheMightyBuzzard> either way, it'd still be better than hannity and colmes was
[01:01:51] <SoyGuest10360> I can't understand how Hannity even exists.
[01:01:59] <TheMightyBuzzard> truth
[01:02:18] <SoyGuest10360> Evolution should select against being that blinkered.
[01:02:19] <RandomFactor> Try Greg Gutfeld. At least he's funny.
[01:02:25] <TheMightyBuzzard> ef makes much more sense than hannity, which is not to say ef makes sense in any way.
[01:02:57] <SoyGuest10360> I like the mashup of every time Rachel Madcow has said "Russia" for laughs.
[01:03:48] <RandomFactor> Oh hey, my Utah data entry disaster got accepted. I figured that one for a long shot.
[01:03:52] <SoyGuest10360> Somebody needs to do a Developers developers developers developers of her.
[01:04:20] <RandomFactor> it just tickled my funny bone a little
[01:04:33] <SoyGuest10360> the data was entered onto golden plates?
[01:05:04] <RandomFactor> some data entry type 'dropped a phone on a keyboard' or something equally silly
[01:05:13] <RandomFactor> and revalued a house at ~1billion US
[01:05:25] <RandomFactor> this was in a sparesly populated county in Utah
[01:05:54] <RandomFactor> upped the estimated revenues of the county dramatically and they did new budgets at the higher revenue rate...
[01:06:23] <RandomFactor> all approved and now they are millions over what their real revenue will be
[01:06:28] <SoyGuest10360> I was once charged #850 for lunch. the 00 button wasn't properly debounced.
[01:06:50] <SoyGuest10360> this was in the days before barcodes, obvs.
[01:06:58] <RandomFactor> So it sounds like they are going to raise taxes for the next three years to make up for the shortfall
[01:07:30] <SoyGuest10360> now that is worth a hearty little snigger
[01:07:52] <RandomFactor> If i lived there I would be a bit put out :-p
[01:08:04] <TheMightyBuzzard> SoyGuest10360, that's spersonofcolor nowadays
[01:08:57] <SoyGuest10360> safrican samerican?
[01:09:01] * TheMightyBuzzard waits patiently for the rotten fruit throwing to begin
[01:09:11] * SoyGuest10360 lobs a peanut
[01:09:22] <TheMightyBuzzard> stop that rhyming now, i mean it

[01:10:56] <RandomFactor> Hardest bit was figuring out WTH Fessig was saying while he was in the burning holocaust cloak.
[01:11:13] <RandomFactor> eventually got it tho
[01:11:14] <TheMightyBuzzard> nah, you just didn't watch enough WWF
[01:11:24] * RandomFactor nods
[01:12:15] <RandomFactor> I am the Dread Pirate Roberts. I am here, and you are here, but soon....you will no be here... The dread pirate roberts has come for your souuuullssssss!!!
[01:12:28] <TheMightyBuzzard> okay, too tired for to be vertical anymore. gonna flop in bed and finish watching this here movie. same lead chick as the last starfighter and LOTS of excellent examples of 80s hair.
