I do not know what is wrong with ppnyc -- I will leave that to you to speculate. As for the others, fringey needed a hotel room (which she found), so nothing is wrong with her, and the others seem relatively balanced today.
as you can see, TM very exciting board indeed.

If the pork had a sauce flavor that permeated the meat and fat, it was more likely braised.
I think it was braised. Still, I was not a big fan of the fat.

"relatively" being the key word.

It's one of those stupid affectations that "avant garde" chefs are throwing at diners left and right these days. The only good thing about it is that it's replaced foam at everyplace but Trotter's, Moto, and WD-40, where I believe they have a bacon foam.

This sort of folderoll is why I like delis and old Italian places.

RT's alright, fringey's alright, they just seem a little weird.

As am I, indeed. And also enjoying the little pleasures of some late-1970s power pop, as played to the screaming throngs at Budokan.

Are you rollin' numbers, rock & rolling, with the Not-Bobette's KISS records out?

1. Why do people post this? I think the only person who actually does it is Fringey. I read posts in order. I learned from Wonk.

2. And if I'm already not stp-ing (ha), I'm not going to read this until after the fact anyway, so it's pointless.

3. Three different people posted about how they're crying or on the verge of tears. That's weird. It sucks that RP has to suffer through today, but the joke wasn't about her specifically. It was about three of our regular posters being all fragile (except for maybe gwnc, who I think just wants to sucker punch someone).

4. If you post it, it can be joked about. If you didn't want it joked about, you would have (i) explained why and then hoped for the best or (ii) not posted it at all.

5. I don't have a 5, but 5 bullet points looks better than 4.
