My main go-to for a stir-fry sauce is using sesame oil, soy sauce, ginger, ground garlic, ground onion, sugar/honey, and chili oil. Usually a good oil/soy sauce base with something to add spice & sweetness is something I steer towards. It might be a bit high end, but with enough of the Korean meal preps I do, sesame oil is a game changer with stir frys.

A lingering cough, anxiety & panic, and fatigue.

For all the 90’s anime crushes I had, I’ve gotta say my first full-on waifu was Arumi from Magical Shopping Arcade Abenobashi.

For most meats and side-veggies, I’m usually trying to refresh my knowledge of how long it takes to cook each, reading instructions on safely handling some ingredients like chicken or seafood, or finding which button to press for instant roasted broccoli. But I’m an absolute Sauce Boss. If I’m asked to make things Iike sauces, marinades, spice blends, dressings, and condiments, I can ballpark ingredients based on intuition and nail it from the get-go. I’d have a hard time prepping up egg for a fried rice, but the sauce I whip up for said fried rice makes it taste amazing. Spaghetti takes little to no skill to get right, but I’m incredibly proud of the tomato sauce I make whenever it’s time to make pasta. Vinaigrettes are a high point for me as well. And the spice mixes I make for chicken, fish, and veggies are something else. Are there any folks who have the same issue of being a jack of a few cooking trades, but a master of sauces and spices?

If motorcycles are acceptable, Bakuon is pretty good.

Good Will Hunting is a lot more critically beloved than Mr. Ripley or Phenomenon so you might enjoy it more. I’d say similar movies from around the late 90s & early 00’s would be stuff like A Beautiful Mind or As Good as it Gets. Maybe Magnolia. If you don’t mind something earlier in the 90’s or later in the 80’s, Dead Poets Society works.

I didn’t follow enough comedians to get a gist of if people were going crazy with the Rush song puns, but from general knowledge about celebrity death reactions, it’s definitely commonplace to find someone who goes apeshit on the pun jokes. I saw it more with Eddie Money where everyone spammed the same “Two Tickets to Paradise” jokes, which is funny because paradise means the afterlife.

Some folks stew in negativity, but it does come with the territory of being a comedian in today’s society to make fun of the dead. Two particular jokes that comics love to make when celebrities die are jokes about how flawed they were as people and jokes about lyrics, catchphrases, or story titles that can be deathified. Like while you’re going to get a lot of death-related puns added to Rush lyrics in lieu of Neil Peart’s death, you’re going to expect a lot of references to Kobe’s rape case if you’re going to be following a comic or aspiring comic’s Twitter feed.

Who could forget the best Death Note ED song?

The future is now, old man!

Which of the Rogue’s is the unfortunate user that happens to have Rogue’s Penis attached to them?

I’m not sure if anything I’ve done was noticeable or outlandish enough to make a meme out of. I was admittedly trying to get on the same train as “tell it to Dudeco” except with underarms, but I feel like it was never prominent enough. Any efforts to stand out kinda felt more like I was that one student from Zetsubou Sensei who’s only noticeable trait was being normal. And everything she did was just seen as expected behavior for a normal person. Maybe being weeby was my thing?

Last week sucked down gallons of nut. Between my transmission and battery crapping out, a new guy at work I have to supervise being dumb as rocks, a lingering scratchy throat, another dumb guy I need to supervise making me work on a Friday night, and being a passenger of a head-on collision when an old guy mowed into us while we were at a Stop sign, I’ve been deeply and consistently pissed for every day of the last week. I’m safe and no one got hurt, just in case anyone was worried from the last statement.

Not sure how close this is to your preferences, but I’ve been watching a lot of Woolie Vs. and Vinesauce playthroughs lately and they don’t lean too much into freaking out. If you want to go deeper into older archives, Two Best Friends had some great LPs before they broke up.

People were angry with it, but it seemed like it was going to happen anyways so that Fire Emblem’s newest game can have representation. It’s better to rip off that bandaid before Season 2 rolls around and we get some more unique fighters. So far I’ve only bought Joker and want to get Three Houses before I give Byleth a chance, but they seem fun enough with their multi-weapon interface. But this also means that a starter from Pokémon Sword/Shield is highly likely to appear as a fighter in the next pack.

The insect fragments that accidentally slip into the peanut butter during the manufacturing process make it nonvegan.

I don’t need pictures of Peter and Harry. I need pictures of Spider-Man!

Red wine doesn’t even pair as well with seafood.

I sent mine in so I won’t copy paste it in this thread

Just caught up with it the other day. On paper it sounds like it’d be a lot more mean-spirited like those ecchi anime where women are seen as only worthwhile for their physical attributes. But the artstyle and the jokes centered around their experiences with mythological beings-of-the-night make it too cutesy and tongue-in-cheek to get that kinda vibe from it. I think I got it as soon as they went to the fairy establishment and each of the guys were paired up with fairies based on their size. Where there’s mixed signals on whether it’s a good or bad thing to be well endowed if you’re trying to get paired with as many fairies as possible.
