if you've got nothing nice to say, then come sit by me.

yes, these are cupcakes. pretty cool looking, but they're still cupcakes; so they probably still taste like dry-ass cake dust in typical cupcake fashion.
I think it says a lot about a person when they go to the drive thru at a place like starbucks, and then bitch when their coffee, or worse, tea isn't made to perfection. Just a thought, but maybe you should get your lazy ass out of the car and make it yourself. After all, the chances of someone getting your "venti hot tazo, half chai, with steamed skim and 1 1/2 splendas" correct, is pretty slim.
And by the way, if your coffee order sounds like a drug deal, your probably an asshole, asshole.
ok, ok, so it's actually a bookmark. but you can't tell me, that at first glance, that you didn't think exactly what i was thinking.
so is it safe to assume that the 'b' in "o.b." stands for bacon???[via itsallaboutthebacon]
well, they're actually called 'chocolate cookie dough cupcakes,' but mini orgasm cakes has such a nice ring to it. (as opposed to a jumbo orgasm cake, which i, for one, would also love to try if anyone has a recipe) but seriously, how deliciously fattening do these cupcakes look? in my mind, the most disgusting part of cupcakes is the dryass cake part, so this is right up my alley- minimum cake, mucho rawish cookie dough filling and seriously delicious icing. word. is. bond.

A complete ass right until the end. Increasing import duties on Roquefort cheese? What the hell?
Less than a week before it leaves office, the Bush administration has sparked anger across the Atlantic by tripling the import duty rate on roquefort cheese to 300%, a move which the US hopes will "shut down trade" in the sheep's milk product by making it prohibitively expensive.
The decision, part of Washington's attempts to force the EU into dropping its ban on hormone-treated beef, was greeted with disbelief by the French government and by farmers in the south-western Aveyron region who depend on the industry for their livelihoods.
"Maybe the Bush administration indulged itself by taking this decision just before it leaves," Robert Glandieres, president of the roquefort producers' group, told Reuters.
The tariff on roquefort, condemned as "incomprehensible and inadmissible" by the French government, will probably have a minimal effect, given exports to the US account for just 2% of annual sales. French farmers said it would mean "the end" for roquefort in the US and vowed to take "symbolic actions" in return.
i can't wait to see what those "symbolic actions" turn out to me. more tainted milk and salmonella laden peanut butter? my best guess would be tainted 'freedom fries.'

i emailed brendan kiley at the stranger today, asking if he thought the alaskan asswipe that made THIS and THIS would be making a new cake after today's plane crash in the hudson. he forwarded my message on to nowheresville alaska, and responded:was i wrong in thinking that alaskans gave a shit about the exxon valdez? i was trying to hit below the belt, but i'm not sure if that came across as a weak jab.
oddly enough, i still don't find any humor in this. but thanks for the update. you're still an asshole.[via slog]
The restaurant is called King of Siam or something like that...and it looks like a Thai restaurant...but it serves Polish food." --Amy, on her dream restaurant

...than eat faux foie gras.
i remember a few years ago when those peta assholes started trying to make foie gras illegal. i love animals, i do, but shut the fuck up you peta asswipes. eat a slab of pan seared foie gras at les halles in manhattan, and then tell me that it should be illegal.
now, the inquiring minds at peta want to know if there’s a culinary wizard out there who can cook up a suitable, all-vegetarian substitute for foie gras. vegetarian foie gras? that's like vegan bacon. the hipster toolbox that wins the "fine faux gras challenge" will go home with $10,000, and a healthy dose of self satisfaction.
the tradition of jamming bucket-loads of corn into the belly of a duck or goose via a large funnel—for the purposes of fattening up their delicious livers—is one that dates back hundreds of years. the tradition of hating on this practice is newer, but gaining traction. there’s a general feeling that it’s inhumane, and this totally disturbing video certainly supports that claim. but is this hamburger topped with the fatty offal no less compelling? what about this well-trafficked flickr group?
several states have banned the sale of foie gras, and some farms are starting to offer more humane alternatives (which was discussed here). regardless of your position, it’s hard to argue that this is not a better use of peta’s seeminly vast resources than this sea kittens business.

Me: How is the oatmeal at Starbucks?
Ed: I don't know. Want to know what it feels like? It feels like I'm a fucking idiot because I'm eating something I could make at home. It makes me feel bad. It tastes like guilt.[via molls] Read more...
it's no secret that i love me a good i.p.a. luckily for me i.p.a.'s and double i.p.a.'s are the new "it" beer in the brewing world. smaller breweries have been turning out gems like sierra nevada and longhammer for years, and now the big guys are trying to catch up. unfortunately for them, i.p.a.'s need to be nursed, and the handcrafted ones will always taste better that any bud or miller version.
and on that note, i'm attempting to drink my way through the i.p.a. menu at the capital ale house. i partook in this one the other night, and in my drunkeness, i snapped this shot to share with you. when i was in college, i went through a phase that proclaimed lenny bruce as my lord and savior; i've since made it through all that, but still have much respect and admoration for the man. this brew was made to "salute the jew" and celebrate the 40 year anniversary of his death. it was made in super small quantities, and when i found out that this was the last bottle, i felt as if i had no choice but to partake in its goodness. he'brew | lenny bruce r.i.p.a. maltier than an i.p.a. should be, but damn delicious.
