Yeah, you know about these.
-Steve Nash is one of the ugliest players in the NBA. Hell, he's just a hideous man all around.
-The Simpsons seasons 5-9 are undoubtedly the peak of comedic timing, subtlety, and genius. And just all around entertainment.
-Ignore lists are for the weak.
-Shut the fuck up about "chavs", for the love of God. No one else cares about your class wars.
-My girlfriend and I need a romantic yet affordable getaway somewhere close to NYC but not too close. Boston is an option. We'll be going somewhere on Saturday with hardly any plan. Please provide suggestions if you're familiar with NorthEast U.S.
-As far as meat preferences go: Chicken > Pork > Lamb > Beef > Goat. Yeah, I said it.
-Vietnamese barbecue is the best.

As for the getaway, Lake George is pretty as hell, if you're into that kind of thing (being close to nature on an island (no people, woo) and holding hands and uhhhh hippy stuff). look:

ignore this if you're thinking of going to urban areas. ;p new hampshire has nice beaches. hrrrrm. bah. good luck! my fiance and i are planning a getaway sometime in August, it should be fun.
ignore lists do suck. as does the constant chav-talk.
goat? i've never had goat. and i don't wanna try it. ;[ tortured baby cows... i mean veal... is pretty good. then again i don't eat meat.. right.

I'd pretty much agree with that order, pork chops are great - but duck would top them all when its cooked just right - especially with rock salt over it whilst cooking so that the skin tastes *so* good
JohnnyNemesis
05-25-2005, 09:41 AM
Jenny and Chris: I've never had duck, but that sounds extremely tasty, especially the rock salt part. I have a pet rabbit that I love, so I'm not interested in eating bunnies, that's for sure.
TTIG:Vietnamese BBQ does rule, I know a few great places over here. Barbecued lime chicken and vermicelli = teh yumz.
Lake George sounds like an awesome idea, Sunny! I'm going to definitely ask my lady what she thinks of that...it'll be good to have a bunch of urban options along with a place like that. I'd thank you with a nice plate of goat if you were interested =P

I agree on the "chavs" & kind of when it comes to the ignore-list. sometimes the ignore-option seems to make my life a hell of a lot easier. I can ignore without a list, but it makes skipping through worthless posts just so much more pleasant.

Lamb shouldn't have been so high on my list, but aside from that, everything else stays put! Duck sounds delicious though.
Turkey though? Bah! That's not even on my list, and there's a reason for that! The most boring meat there is.

EATING BUNNIES IS AN ABOMINATION.
how could you possibly eat such a bundle of fluff and cuteness, you heartless shits?
First you dig a shallow pit under the entrances of their warrens. Then you set the metal clawtrap, set it into the pit, layer toilet paper over it and lightly cover it in dirt. When you come back the next morning, you take the rabbit by the back of the neck, unspring the trap, and smash it's skull with a small rock or large piece of wood. Then you push the urine out of it's bladder, slit it's throat and hold it upside down until it bleeds out. Saw off its head and feet at this point, then slice the skin around it's midsection and peel off both halves of its fur like gloves. Make a shallow verticle incision from the bottom of it's ribcage, down to it's groin. Hold it by whats left of it's hind legs and flick it like a whip, it's intestines will fly out. Aim away from any nearby friends. Slice out it's stomach and any remaining viscera in the abdomain. Then you have to crack open it's sternum to cut out it's heart and lungs. After that it's simply a question of butchering it, seasoning it and cooking it. It's excellent in curries or stews, or roasted with rosemary and garlic.
Delicious.
Tizzster; the deer we eat, hunbuns, is shot by hunters. they lead a free life in the wild & at least didn't live with a million in a space the size of my studentroom, like your steak & filet did. =)
when I was younger I used to refuse to eat lamb, because it's a tiny sheep, bouncy hopping around in a field. *tear* I got over myself, when my mother told me she bought them from a farmer we know well. because seriously, if I would stop eating lamb, because it's sad.. I'd have to stop eating ALL kinds of meat.

I knoooow...that's why I think I'm such a hypocrit...but I can't help it =/ If something looks a tiny bit red, or sounds too much like the animal, I start thinking about the animal too much (when someone mentions the animal too), I can't eat it anymore...so I just pretend I'm not eating animals. Hypocrit, but I like it too much to be a vegetarian completely.

^ what about when people put a chunk of meat on their fork and move it across the table making the respective animal's noise...hehehe
Rabbit is very nice indeed - duck is perhaps a little better when cooked perfectly though. I had a duck sandwich the other day...so good!

Well, I'd eat meat if I had to. I'm fortunate enough not to have to, though, as are most people on this board.
I prefer my bunnies in my lap, not on my plate. Just a matter of preference.
the ones you take on your lap & pet taste worthless & awful anyway.
it's the wild ones that have a strong, special, rather lovely taste. the ones you wouldn't even -want- to hold on your lap. like city-doves; I don't think there's a worst taste on the world-wide planet, but wild doves taste peachy.
Sim; my boyfriend isn't exactly a country-side kind of person (just an elitist arsehole basically), but man, does he enjoy the hunt. *smiles* aw. he'll always be my little bunny. & I've hunted him down, caught him with a lasso & now he's mine. MINE.

I love how out of Johnny's threads, the theories realted to food spur the most debate. I've only eaten Vietnamese once and I have no desire to try it again. If someone can point out a good restaurant and force me to go then perhaps, but until then I'll stick to Chinese, Japanese and, most important of all, Thai. "Thai food" and "hella good" don't rhyme, but if they did, it wouldn't be a coincidence.
I agree with Bella on ignore lists. It's just a matter of convenience and efficiency. And duck is fucking awesome when cooked right. As is seafood... shrimp po-boys, crayfish, catfish, red snapper, crab... cajun food fuels my soul.
Also, classic Simpsons kicks Family Guy's ass. On top of being hilarious and smart, it's got soul. Nowadays it's just too slick, jumpy and focused on cramming in as many jokes as possible.

Pretty nice and quite cheap, but eight hours away (beautiful drive though) and pretty gaudy. Niagara Falls feels like a giant tourist trap, though you can have fun there. Legal gambling and drinking at 18 is a plus.
Eggs mushrooms and milk aren't exactly lying around the wilderness.
she could climb up a tree, steal them from some nest.. if there isn't a little birdie in it. :/ (yeah, right. nevermind) a mountaingoat should be able to provide you from milk, Tizz. (you better start liking milk, when you're living in the wilderness, love) & mushrooms.. yeah.. under leaves, don't eat the red ones with white dots. & many others.

Okay, so I'll just pretend I'm out hunting while I'm actually looking for berries?
no, just relax. pick a body to sit on, lay back in the sun, enjoy the waving palm trees... make it as less obvious as possible, that you'd be willing to do anything to survive.

I know that. If somebody better built was a bigger "I'd rather die than eat fluffy animals" type pussy I'd kill and eat them first. But I'd definately slit her throat before starvation made her any skinnier. I'd prefer a better built man, females have slightly more offal in them, and I dunno if all that reproduction shit is edible. I've never heard of "Steak and Ovaries Pie". Eventually when people realised they were all gonna die if I stayed around I'd have to kill them all, hopefully the plane would crash in snow and the bodies would stay fresh long enough to keep me alive.
If not, I'm sure there'd be morphine in the first aid kits, and I'd shoot up and start amputating parts of myself to eat.

Yeah, it's much easier to skip over a post because it's likely that nonsense won't keep my attention for long. But something like "Click here to see this message", especially if I know that person dislikes me, is more likely to get my attention and make me click, rendering the Ignore list useless.
