Iamdanno, in So, who or what ruined Christmas this year?

SO & myself tested positive for COVID. Kids did not. Kids went to family Christmas, while we are quarantined in our bedroom for 5 days. Pretty shitty overall.

TheBananaKing, in What's the consensus on swearing here

**** censorship

    Steak.

    Heating up anything like Jamaican patties.

    Hot dogs / smokies.

    Leeks,

    Jamaican patties?

    otter,

    en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jamaican_patty

    There’s also this fun short documentary about Jamaican patties in Toronto www.cbc.ca/shortdocs/shorts/patty-vs-patty

    ryathal,

    Hand held pastry filled with curry, they are delicious.

    Leeks,

    Any recommendations for recipe? It sounds interesting, but I’m seeing a lot of variation in recipes.

    Oderus, (edited )

    This is the recipe I use. Everyone loves them.

    Pie Dough:

    900 grams all purpose flour (7 cups). 8 grams salt ( 2 teaspoons). 26 grams granulated sugar ( 2 tablespoons). 440 grams unsalted butter ( 2 cups) or (4 butter sticks). 60 grams turmeric powder (4 tablespoons). 460 grams ice cold water (2 cups).

    Meat Filling:

    600 grams lean ground beef. 2 large size yellow or red onion finely chopped. 120 grams fresh escallion ( scallions) 6 stalks finely chopped. 50 grams Scotch bonnet pepper ( 2 peppers) or use any hot pepper. 100 grams breadcrumbs (1 cup), add more if needed. 6 grams salt ( 1 1/2 teaspoon). 8 grams paprika ( 2 teaspoons). 4 grams black pepper ( 1 teaspoon). 4 grams thyme ( 2 teaspoons). 4 grams allspice ( 1 teaspoon). 120 grams unsalted butter ( 8 tablespoons or 1/2 cup). 500 grams (two cups beef stock). 60 grams Olive oil (4 tablespoons). 16 grams garlic minced ( 4 cloves).

    Enjoy.

    EDIT: Formatting sucks and I can’t fix it. :(

    ryathal,

    Two spaces at the end of a line will force a new line. A dash - at the start of a line will make a bullet point.

    Oderus,

    That’s great advice. Thanks.

    Nemo, in What do you like about socialism?

    That it’s anticorporatist.

    rustyriffs,

    I wish there was a movement called anti corporatism, literally. I feel like we need something new since anything socialism related is automatically bad to a lot of people…

    Lividpeon, (edited )

    Those people tend to be the ones benefiting most from socialism without realizing it. There also is a lot of confusing communism with socialism in here, they are not the same thing

    quinkin, in What are your best air fryer/oven recipes?

    Pork roast in air fryer is easy mode for great crackling.

    20 min at 200°C, then 25 min per 500g at 180°C.

    Chad, he’s such a chad

    Mycatiskai, in What's your automatic vacuum's name?

    Hoover, because the British call vacuums Hoovers and also because J Edgar Hoover was a bottom feeding shitbag like my sharkvac was when my dog took a shit on the floor and it dragged shit in neat lines on the floor.

    BodePlotHole, in What's your automatic vacuum's name?

    We have two.

    Vac Morris and V.A.C Slater.

    Klystron, in So, who or what ruined Christmas this year?

    Disneyland was charging $1850 for five people for one day at Disneyland and one day at California Adventure, genie plus (some kind of fast pass replacement), and then has the gall to make some rides ineligible for the genie plus and instead you have to pay $28 a head for the fast pass. Why can’t we just wait in line? Why did the mouse feel the need to monetize every single interaction in the whole park? As great as the design is in Disneyland, definitely left a sour taste in my mouth knowing that a poor family has an objectively worse experience than a rich one, especially on Christmas. Some rides had a 90, 120 minute wait.

    SendMePhotos,

    120 min wait? Good lord

    Zevlen,

    Imagine if the ride got stuck about as soon as it started ay ? 😕🤔😞

    Had to be Defunctland.

    Trainguyrom,

    The fun part is that not only do you skip the line with Genie Plus but also the folks letting people into the ride will legit let an entire stream of Genie Plus payers in before letting someone who waited in line go. With the old fast pass system they were really good about alternating lines if there was a line for both fast pass and genie plus

    greenskye,

    Last time I went to Magic Kingdom in Disney world, the park was IMO legitimately too full of people. Seemed like every single space was wall to wall people and every ride, even the shitty ones was like a 3 hour wait. And it wasn’t even a holiday or a peak season time. Just a miserable experience. Feels like they just need a daily cap or something on the number of visitors because there’s definitely a point where it gets too full to be worth it for anyone.

    Zevlen,

    Profits , profits , profits… Corporate greed = enshitification
