...is Tribute, by Tenacious D, a tribute to The Devil Went Down to Georgia

[PhantomCatClock]

which is a cool story, but two rockstars smoking weed listening to it would be thinking "...this fiddlin' is good, but could you really beat the devil with it? Ah, it's just a story. A tribute."

The original HBO version has the riff from Stairway to Heaven, in interviews I believe JB and KG said 'the greatest song in the world' is One by Metallica, and it's obviously a spoof of The Devil Went Down to Georgia

Very aggravating

always have these cabeça grande plans for setting up a special evening of game for my friends that I never end up actually carrying out

there's a ttrpg that uses a jenga set instead of dice, like, every time you take an action that involves any kind of risk, you have to take a jenga block out and put it on top, and if the tower falls you fail and probably die or something I don't remember the specifics
and I was like 30% of the way through setting up this whole ass custom scenario loosely based on Saw 2 (the one where a bunch of strangers wake up in a house with a slow-acting poison gas and they're supposed to go through a bunch of saw traps to find hypodermic needles with the cure)
I had an old tape recorder and a bunch of little mini-cassette tapes I found in the ancient warrens of the local Rite-Aid and I was mapping out this whole like web of character and plot

then I guess I just wandered away to do god knows what else

Oh hey cool I'm friends with the author of that RPG! I've never had a chance to play it though. He loves a metaphorical mini-game.

I made coq au vin and it was delicious and now I'm mad because it was a lot of work and if I want to make it again later it's going to be a lot of work again but I'm probably going to want to because it's delicious. never trying a new recipe again. if my palate keeps expanding I'm going to be trapped in a brighter and more vibrant world

[Slurpee]

also, like, what can I do with this leftover half a bag of garbanzo beans, half an 8 oz can of tomato paste, half a bottle of cheap pinot, an almost full bottle of cheap brandy, an almost full box of beef stock cubes, half a bag of pearl onions, and half a medium yellow onion?

there's pretty much exactly one thing, and that's buy some more chicken and make coq au vin again


I substituted garbanzo beans for the white mushrooms because I hate mushrooms but I knew they were in there to add some umami so I was google mushroom substitutes and google sucks at a lot of things now but they but they nailed this one, I saw garbanzo beans and I was like ooh ima try that, great decision, very full flavor, thank you, garbanzo beans

[Slurpee]

but also, the garbanzo beans are part of why it took so long because this was a spontaneous decision so I had to go buy them and they take like 2 hours minimum to cook, and also I didn't read the recipe properly so I didn't know I wasn't gonna need them beans until like the very end of cooking the rest of the shit anyway. so I guess actually now that I know that that would shave about an hour off. I also was really worried about fucking it up once I saw you're supposed to set the brandy on fire o_O so I like really carefully prepared all the ingredients I'd need ahead of time, like minced garlic, I minced that shit up, and I put them all aside in little dishes like they do on cooking shows so I could just toss them in when the recipe called for them, no surprises. prep time. batman. if I were to cook this several more times I'd probably develop a rhythm to do everything much more efficiently but see? SEE!? my brain is already devoting time and energy to getting better at cooking. it's a trap! food tricks you into becoming a food person

[Slurpee]

Oh hey cool I'm friends with the author of that RPG! I've never had a chance to play it though. He loves a metaphorical mini-game.

I would have been slightly more reverent if I knew someone here knew the creator! I thought it was just some very nerdy thing I was rambling about and didn't want to gush too much about how cool of an idea that is haha

do you guys tend to make many friends at work? I hear alot of people talk about their co-workers in a really negative way which is just so strange to me. I love the people I work with, but granted this is still my first job so maybe I'm just lucky haha

[Slurpee]

I tend to get along with everybody I work with but I think that's rare

I've seen a lot of this phenomenon of... someone gets mad at a co-worker (over things that, I don't understand why you would be that upset about) and then instead of talking it out like adults they just kind of passive-aggressively treat that person worse, and each decides the other is an asshole and make each other's lives harder. and they'll just live their lives like that for years

there was one dude who I think didn't like me at first, when I worked at safeway. just bad chemistry, y'know, it happens. but I just didn't make anything out of it, and he didn't make anything out of it, and one day he saw me buying loose bananas and he was like "holy shit, I've never seen somebody buy the loose bananas before" and I laughed and was like "I mean, they're the same. they're just not in a bunch" and he was like "EXACTLY. we throw out like 2 dozen loose bananas a week because people just assume there's something wrong with them" and we were friendly after that lol
