So...

So there's a weird little bug that always pops up with this thread that I usually end up ignoring, but I thought I'd mention it now to see if anyone else has experienced it. When the last post of a page is made, a new page number is displayed at the bottom. For example, phattonez posted most recently, on the bottom of page 126, but I see a link to page 127 right now (which takes me to page 126).

Of course, by posting, I'm now starting a new page so maybe none of this will make sense since you can't observe it now that I've posted.

Yeah, I noticed that too. It's been like that for a while now. Is the forum's software designed to handle such huge threads?

Also, what do you think of my new avatar?

This bug has been happening for any thread here, not just this one, for quite a while now. I seem to run into it all the time, a minor annoyance but still something I hope gets fixed next time there is an update.

Ah, Spam. It's very popular around here. People use it for everything from sushi to burgers. This is also where the "Hot and Spicy" version of it was first introduced. According to my dad, the first batch of the spicy Spam was *incredibly* spicy. My dad in the past has been able to drink entire bottles of Tabasco like it's just water, but the Spam was so hot he couldn't handle more than a tiny piece at a time. The current spicy Spam on sale is apparently much, much milder.

Top of the muffin' to ya m'lords.

On the somewhat previous topic of sushi; Been attempting to fabricate my own recently. After all's said and done, the most difficult part of it, I think, is making the sushi rice correctly. The next most difficult part of it is getting it not to glom up into some sort of ball that doesn't look like sushi.

I'm taking popsicle sticks, slicing the rounded tops and bottoms off, and slicing them all through the middle to form the mat pieces, and then threading three long strands of dental floss through the top, middle, and bottom. Dental floss is pretty strong stuff, so it makes for a good binding structure. Tie it several times at each end, and you've got yourself a wonderful mat to squish it into that cylindrical shape.

Be sure to smoosh the rice very, very thinly on the mat. Most people, when they make it, tend to just squish a big clump around a bit, and when it's rolled up, it feels like it's 95% rice, 5% "WTF was that?" If you can actually find the nori (seaweed wrap sheets.) in stores, the more power to ya bro. I think you can order it over the internet, but it's expensive.

But damn, if I could only find some of that spicy tuna ... ... That stuff is so good. >.< Otherwise, it's Avocado rolls and California rolls for me. I do have the salmon easily available, (I'm Jewish. 😃 ) but I do fear parasites and all that, though Kosher food is specifically kosher due to the inherent lack of them. Jews are more paranoid about food than you could ever possibly hope to imagine. At least the Chassidic and possibly Orthodox ones are.

So what do you guys do when you get a blister? I got one from bowling and I'm trying to get it to go down since I need it every week, but for the past two weeks it's really been screwing with my release. Is there any way to mitigate this besides using baby powder to increase slide?

Remember, not so long ago when it seemed like everybody and their cousin typed on one of these things?

Yeah, me neither.

It seems like they kinda still do. Or at least never capitilize their i's, have never heard of a comma or period, and tend to make really unfounded and angry observations!!!1

*proudly* But AGN seems to attract and retain a higher level of thought.

Nice pic, by the way. :thumbsup: Although the angle on the "Simpsons Quote" button is slightly off.

Does this forum just die when I'm not around? I mean usually Saturdays are pretty bad in terms of activity, but today just seemed dead. I mean, there couldn't have been more than 10 posts in non-ZC forums today. I'm sorry guys, I'll return to my normal schedule Monday.

You're right, you are just awesome.

Actually, it is probably because I have not been around...

My buddy, Firstwizzedd or whatever the fuck(AKA Jeff), went on vacation this week...so I have been covering his schedule.

Over two weeks, no day off. Plus, I have been getting drunk...

Tonight, I had about 20 ounces of Captain Morgan.

God...I love Captain Morgan.

I am about to pass the fuck out. Later.
