This thread was made for me.
Pizza and beer do not go together. It's a disgusting combination. The only people who like pizza and beer together are oafs who eat bad pizza just for the pleasure of stuffing themselves and drink bad beer ice cold (to kill the taste) solely because it gets them drunk. Pizza goes with Coke, Dr. Pepper, red wine...anything but beer.
I make pizza. I make beer. I'm good at both. I keep them apart.
Here's something else: graduated taxes are unfair to the rich. The poor suck up all the expensive government help. The police, government social workers, corrections officers, and judges raise their kids and house them later on. The poor get Medicaid. The poor get EBT's. The rich, meanwhile, raise their own kids, buy medical insurance or self-pay because they don't need it, reduce the load on public schools, stay out of prison for the most part, and don't consider cops to be their marital counselors.
When the rich get in trouble, they hire real lawyers and pay for them. The poor use public defenders, which may explain why so many of them end up in prison.
Here's one: authentic Mexican food is crap. American-style is far better. Real Mexican food is bland, and it all looks alike. And the cheese looks like pus. Same basic idea applies to Chinese. The Chinese say they don't even recognize our Chinese food as Chinese. Of course they don't. That's because it tastes good. I've had real Chinese food overseas. It's to puke.
Even American Mexican food only has 5 ingredients in different combinations, but it's okay. It works.
Elvis was a lousy singer. Get mad. I don't care.
Never use chicken broth in poultry dishes. Always beef broth or beef stock. Trust me on this.
Expensive kitchen knives are for the kind of insecure guys who buy $10,000 cables to connect their stereo components. Cheap is the way to go. Expensive knives come mainly in two varieties: too-hard Japanese knives that chip in the dishwasher, and Caucasian-made knives that go about 54 RC and get dull in a hurry. Real cooks use cheap knives from Forschner and Mundial, with color-coded NSF handles. Sure, they get dull fast, but you can touch them up in 5 seconds with a diamond hone. And they laugh at the dishwasher.
You know who really gets mad when you criticize expensive kitchen knives? Guys who watch too much Forged in Fire, quit their jobs, and make their wives support them while they earn [(minimum wage)/3] while "building a brand and a customer base," i.e. stinking up their sheds and inhaling abrasive grit while trying to guilt their friends and relatives into buying high-school-shop-grade rust-prone knives full of stress risers.
"Honey, I can sell this knife for $300!" 1. No, you can't, except maybe to your mom, and 2. guess what [$300/(20 hours)] comes out to.
Here's one that made a friend of mine furious: Cubans only have 10 last names. If you're a fugitive in Miami, and your name is Jose Garcia, the police will grow old and die before they figure out which one is you.
Finally, mayonnaise is great, but it has to be the right mayonnaise. Duke's rhymes with "puke" for a reason. Blue Plate is the best.
If I have not offended you, please let me know so I can try again. If I don't get at least one angry "lol" or "bwah ha ha" out of this, I will feel like I let everybody down.
