OT: The M-Fing Food Thread

[BeLeafer]

I bought four or five bottles of that gold about a year ago. I'm down to the last fifth. eek

 

[BeLeafer]

4 in stock at summerhill. I know where I'll be tomorrow morning.

I’m surprised. Bourbon is just a bunch of processed grains.

Not if you make it at home in your bathtub

It's distilled, dude. No carbs.

I'm taking them all unless someone beats me to the store.

at $160/bottle, you better pray Bernie is not driving up from Vermont to grab the last batch

So, this is the food thread, eh.

A good friend, who is now 80, lost his wife of 55 years recently. Turns out, she did all the cooking, lol. He's a 'retired' marking exec, amazing fucking guy. I spent the week prepping food for a care package (he's relying entirely on food from the National Club and Loblaws .. omg). He lives in rosedale ... so, good samaritan food drop, blood oath clean out to follow.

pfft, I apportion the expenditures rationally.

The people of Reddit did not give Blood Oath 5 a good review. After the week they had, I am inclined to heed their warnings.

 

[BeLeafer]

They know NOTHING.

why is ‘retired’ in quotes? Is he still marketing?

Not marketing. It's a bit of an odd story, but lobbying for a Japanese baker (third largest in the world) with FDA and ABA. Cambridge and Wharton School guy.

But, i worked with him daily for about 8 years and then he 'retired' ... but kept working. He really just retired from my previous retrograde employer.

 

[BeLeafer]

In terms of marketing, he was the lead guy at Carling O'Keefe (in the carlsberg hey day), McLean Hunter, big banks, etc.

 

[BeLeafer]

It's strange, especially as a leftist, but we all breathe the same air ... realize that we're all just trying to get by ... even the affluent, my enemy.

 

[BeLeafer]

Class war ... that's what neoliberalism is. It's over. You guys had your day in the sun.

 

[BeLeafer]

Like, I think I have a unique window on the class war.

 

[BeLeafer]

Which side are you on?

 

[BeLeafer]

I'm feeling that it's not long before the barricades go up. So, what side are you on? Are you on the side of the oppessed or the oppressor?

 

[BeLeafer]

These questions ... I pose them to members of the ruling class and have done so for many years. Most of them side with the oppressed.

 

[BeLeafer]

Unlike you people, lol
