While I do find it odd that they may have been homeless and went into the restaurant to catch up on their favorite tv shows, it seems to me your biggest problem with the woman was her enjoying of the show. It sounds like her situation sucks - although probably self inflicted, she still has the right to some enjoyment. Obese and homeless? Sound terrible, and is probably part of the reason you were so quick to judge her. If an attractive stay at home mom came in with her kids intent on watching her favorite show in the Burger King I have a feeling your words wouldnt be so harsh, it you even particularly remembered the incident.
Perfect username/post juxterposition.
Why do I try?
Actaully, it’s nice to see someone try to get the thread back on track.
To anywhere in particular, TSS?
Gordon Ramsey cooks a mean Salmon Rushdie.
So which day of the week does being a cook delete? (I hope it’s Monday.) 
LMFAO, “STIMPY YOU EEE-DIOT!”
He didn’t say he works 6 days a week… he said he works 3 days on and then 3 days off…repeatedly. Similarily, back on the 80’s,I used to work a 10 on/4 off schedule. How do you think I fit that in? It’s a rotating schedule!
Buy a calendar, look at it, then come back and read it again.
Well, Rushdie used to be married to Padma Lakshmi. So there’s a kinda connection to TV “reality” cooking shows.
Whoa. I’ve gotta become a writer.
Wait, I am a writer. I’ve gotta become a *better *writer.
In my case, it tends to be more of a punch-and-flee.
What did I obfuscate?
Young, attractive, intelligent, amusing, and arrogant? You bet your ass.
He does that a lot, actually. We really should thank him for picking such an informative username.
Also, the word you’re looking for is “juxtaposition.”
:smack:
Lies! That one time when Gordon was trying to save that one restuarant and he rode around on his flying unicorn around town to advertise the restuarant is absolutely true. I was there. The flying unicorn pooped on me.
She, actually, but yes, I didn’t think I needed to explain what three days on, three days off meant. Thanks for doing that for me as it did, in fact, seemed to be necessary.
Oh, poo! :mad: Now I’m mortified to admit my riotously giddy anticipation of the sequel, [FONT=Franklin Gothic Medium]Cooper Old Style—The Forgotten Sibling[/FONT]
I used to think Gordon Ramsey was a piggish, uncouth asshole whom I would slap in short order if I were ever on the receiving end of his disrespect.
Then I found out that he allegedly had lied about using animal-based stocks in vegetarian dishes, and has served ham to dimwitted, unknowing vegetarians.
He then became my culinary idol.
Oooh, aren’t you just so edgy.
Do you also waylay men on the street with payot to shove bacon in their mouths? :rolleyes:
I’ve seen the ham episode of Kitchen Nightmares, unless you’re talking about an ongoing thing at a restaurant and not the specific occasion I’m thinking of. He had the chef and sous chefs at the restaurant make vegetarian pizzas and one of the sous chefs put ham on hers. He pulled some people off the street at random and asked them to taste them. When the one guy said he was a vegetarian, he said they were vegetarian because he believed they were. Then after they ate the pizzas, the sous chef corrects Ramsey, off camera I think, and he tells the vegetarian that his favorite one had ham in it.
He sort of made a joke out of it because the vegetarian picked the ham pizza as his favorite but I don`t think there was any deliberate trickery.
Jeez, that would be a totally dickish thing to do – lie to people about what’s in the food you’re giving them. Aside them them being dimwitted vegetarians.
But see, in one case you have a group of fussy, humorless religious zealots, and in the other you have orthodox Jews…
Kidding, of course. Unless you’re talking about militant vegans, which, come on— they even find *themselves *annoying.
