Amph Shelf Of Shame...

Have some mac & cheese mixed with spam in a bowl of lucky charms tonight.

 

Growing up, most homecooked meals were meat and fries/tater tots, with some Italian or vaguely Mexican meals. My dad's a very 'meat and potatoes' guy, so when he'd get home from work, he cooked what he liked and what was easy for him to cook.


And I know THIS isn't a reprimand, it was just funny when my brother was reprimanded over this. I do get the impression I have managed to be first one this round to reach the "true shame" part of this game this round.

* Need A Chorus of Disapproval to give his answer for mac and cheese

Ramza is up.

 

Unfortunately for me, I'm a fat dude who likes to try new foods, so this is kind of difficult.

As I will attempt to be playing this legit since Inty wants his goose egg so badly (And really, what fun is a mod "winning" a game?), I've never tried Pad Thai.

 

what the hell man!

You're missing out. It's better than mac and cheese.

 

I just never get around to it - it's got a reputation as being the sweet and sour chicken of Vietnamese/Thai food and I always want to try the weird phôs with unpronounceable names.

 

nope

 

I've had it.

 

Can we get a definition here? I'm looking it up trying to figure out if I've ever had this, so I need a better idea of what sets this apart from other asian dishes.

 

!!!!

This is how we are going to finally meet up (btw, it's sad that we haven't being we live about fifteen minutes from each other) ... I am taking you out for pad thai.

I've had pad thai.

 

Never had it.

 

Well, I guess the sort of broad Wikipedia definition of stir-fried Pho noodles with... fish sauce and tamarind juice? I just know that whenever a restaurant/Vietnamese/Thai place has a Pad Thai on the menu, I've never ordered or tried it.

 

Never had it.

 

had lots and lots of pad thai.

also i never pictured ramza as a fat dude.

 

I have had pad Thai. Found it okay but nothing to go out of my way for.

 

I've never had it.

 

I see my brilliant strategy of never being photographed and only picking attractive men for my avatars has paid off!

Certainly a reasonable plan whenever I manage to get sufficient free time - which is bound to happen, it seems I will be here for the foreseeable future.

 

Do you have a beard, Ramza?

 

I have a goatee, yes - some amount of facial hair is more or less a prerequisite in math departments. I'm unfond of the way the rest grows in.

 

Don't be unfond of it, embrace the growth!

 

Nah, 'sall patchy and wiry. Tried it last semester as an experiment/dare with a couple of the other first year math grads, a friend of mine correctly described the results as "Brillo pad."

 

I haven't had it either.

 

Negative on that Thai thing.

 

WTH people?!

Pad Thai is awesome.

If you haven't had it, go to the nearest Thai place, order it with extra lime on the side, have it with a Thai Tea and then come back here to thank me.
