  • Late 80s early 90s I got into the database for our menus & recipes and changed ‘hot dog’ to ‘tibe steak smothered in underwear’ and then promptly forgot about it until one day months later with the storeroom clerk he was printing the monthly menus and inventory, lol and behold I laughed my ass off. He never even noticed because we just printed and filed the paperwork.

    I also point around in areas that were ‘resteicted’ I found the ‘star wars’ game, and I would play it for hours on the midnight shift. Nothing like the old green screen games.

    Insert Willem Dafoe meme Im something of a hacker myself









  • Student at university shared the 2br. house with 4 other dudes, in Poughkeepsie NY in the mid 90s, 2 who lived there originally had the bedrooms, me and one guy got the dining room we dividend with furniture, milk crates & curtains… everyone had a good time in the living room hearing me and one of my dates fucking…like the entire crew and their friends lined up like judges at a field sporting event

    The bathroom was always wet… every surface

    the boiler would often shut down, freezing us…most of the time on the weekends when we couldn’t get it running again

    prostitutes would walk up to our door

    the oil pipe to the boiler leaked outside

    2 dogs & a snake as well, nothing in the fridge except garlic and weed (how my friend paid for his college tuition)





  • So you’re basically telling chefs to research and write out for you all the variables?

    Baking is a science, cooking is an art.

    Every recipe handed down through generations has notes, changes, etc…that’s what makes it beautiful.

    I am lucky to have my grandmother’s cook book with 3x5 index cards hand written, with the date and whom the recipe is from…but I don’t use lard in her Ginger Bread recipe from 1932.

    There is no exact science you’re looking for, the garlic grown here won’t be the same as the garlic grown there, your experience won’t be the same as someone who has cooked for years saying ‘fuck it, throw that in there and let’s see what happens’.

    …lol, amateur hour
