Here’s your heaven. Garlic-infused olive oil, enough to toss with pasta. “Enough” thick cut bacon or panchetta, cut into 1/2"-1" pieces Handful of italian parsley, chopped roughly Some pasta in corresponding amount to the olive oil. Cook pasta. Fry bacon in olive oil. Gently cook parsley briefly in bacony olive oil. Toss all that shit together and eat it. ---

I just made some pasta fah zooool. It was okay, but the I don’t think the bacon added that much. People more carnivorous than me may disagree. ---

> [@BrainGlutton](#): > > Oh, veddy well. **What the … !!!** has been posting dishonest, disingenuous, and entirely stupid threads more or less suggested by his/its username for well more than a year now, sliming Obama and any other Dem or lib with hints and winks and nudges and utterly retarded suggestions of “liberal media” bias, and nobody has **called** the piece of shit on it AFAICR. I call it. **What** is a worthless lying chain-yanking RW subtroll whose shitbag brother-fucking mother, social criminal that she is, should have died of ovarian-uterine cancer without benefit of morphine that same drunken day she conceived it while rolling around in the slime of her own vomit and anybody’s and everybody’s semen, and **What** has a nonnegotiable and absolute moral and ethical obligation, whether by traditional or religious or utilitarian or deontological or communitarian norms, to take down its own dung-and-piss-crusted breeches and take some motor oil and a chainsaw and . . . wait, there are **some** rules even in the Pit, aren’t there?☹ Nicejob…you got all of the above pretty much correct. However, please note that I’ve been insulting the intelligence of you smart guys in GD for about 3 years now. One thing I take exception to is the dishonesty part. I think I know where you get that from though… Obviously you see the world thru your LibProgDem DicksuckingCuntlapping glasses and rarely if ever take them off. Since many GD posters prefer that fashion as well, you think the country is that way. Reinforcement. As such if anyone questions Honest Obe or his people you consider it an affront to the Messiah of Change himself. Not just an affront, a specific accusation of things I’ve never accused him of. So I invite everyone to read the thread you linked to and see who changed the subject from JJ Jr, Rahm, and Axelrod. I also invite you, Brainy G, to bring up any other threads you wish and I’ll be happy to address the strawmen you like to create. ---

> [@Kat](#): > > Damn, that sounds yummy. I wonder how it would taste with mushrooms… I can imagine if you got some skinny or thinly sliced mushrooms to keep the textures coherent, it’d probably be really good. The original recipe idea is a Nigella Lawson one, if I recall correctly, but it’s one I’ve internalized to a “toss whatever looks right in the pan” and it’s simple enough to reward that. I should try it with different pig-based products–the panchetta experiment was amazingly good. ---

You never accused anyone of much of anything specifically because you were just flinging shit left and …well, left, without bothering with anything as petty as _evidence_. “Is Emmanuel involved?

Asking a question = flinging shit … guess it depends on whether the question is directed at Honest Obe’s side or the hated W’s side. And yes, I’m sure BrainyG is among the 53 and I was among the 46. You must agree with The Brain Eater that the Great Debaters and America’s newsrooms come pretty close to that breakdown then?? Sheesh, and I’m the one who is intellectually dishonest :dubious: ---

Hmmm… after 16 hours no one seems to care that \*\*BrainG’\*\*s link doesn’t work. I don’t know what my catchy titles would prove. Granted they show that I bring up things that others would prefer didn’t get discussed. Maybe he wants your help with the evidence of my alleged dishonesty that I asked for.
