    It's times like this I wish I actually had some food in the house other than popcorn and spam. Oh well, grocery shopping today.

    They don't have delivery where you are?

    Please. Delivery is as expensive as balls.

    On the subject of hamburgers, you have not had a real hamburger until you've had one from In-N-Out. This is truth, they make the best hamburgers. Of course, they're only sold in California (maybe a few slightly over state lines) and the lines are always a block and a half long...but it's totally worth it.

    Also, as far as I know, this is also the only burger place that will allow you to order this:

    Not entirely sure why you would want this, but they'll make it for you if you ask.

    There's a restaurant around here that had really good burgers. I can't remember the name, they are walk-up pick-up window only, but there's like 10 of them along the building, the rest of the property is like a park with picnic tables and such to sit at. There is always over a hundred people at it too. I've only eaten there once, but yeah, it was really good.

    Edit: I've had people order insane shit when I was at Wendy's. Yes, we could enter anything you want for a price. I've made 4-meat sandwiches(bacon,chicken,beef,fish), 10 patty burgers, quad burgers with 12 pieces of bacon...

    Stanley Kubrick never cried. He just did this:

    Why does Amazon look different on Firefox now than it does on Chrome or Internet Explorer, when I don't have any User Styles for Firefox installed which apply to Amazon.com?

    That's one of the few things I miss from not living in California anymore. I don't know why they don't expand nationwide.

    Though when I first moved to California, I thought all the In-N-Out Burger T-Shirts were some sort of joke about sex or basketball or something. Someone had to prove to me it was a real thing.
  • edited January 2012
    And again I have failed to prove my competance as a human being... :(

    Oh well, just have to move on to my exams now and do the deferral later.
    (I only need literally 8% to pass that one, but I just couldn't focus on two huge assignments at the same time, so did the harder one, and even then it was incomplete, though submitted on time (and I probably missed the mark on it in hindsight, but having only 14 hours of sleep in the last 96 hours does that to a man))

    Curse my perfectionism!
    I just can't allow myself to create a slap-dash piece of work. Its literally all or nothing with me these days.

    EDIT: I wish my fear of death wasn't as strong as it was, else I'd just put an end to my miserable, useless existence...

    HA! Look at me being all emo! I suck!

    ....

    I think I'm going to bed for a few hours to sleep.
    And I think I will have that glass of Baileys, if only to make myself feel a little better... :/

    Finding it pretty funny that both runner's up artworks are mine- the speedpainting video that I submitted, and the original art piece in Kurt's submission of his Telltale collection was a commissioned art piece for him.

    TBH. I just grabbed everything in site and put it on the table...and had to deal with a very pissed off girlfriend for turning the lights on at 3 in the morning. So I didn't realized I grabbed it and put it in there.

    I think it has something to do with the fact that every hamburger patty comes from a special facility owned and operated completely by In-N-Out. As far as I understand it they never freeze the things, so every store has to be within a day or so drive of that facility (it's in Baldwin Park, CA). I guess they could create an east coast facility or whatever, but seems like a huge initial committment. No real opportunity to test the water if you're investing that much capital upfront - it's all-in or, um... out.

    Anyway, thanks to all the burger posters for inspiring tonight's dinner. Pastured beef, goat's cheese, organic hardwood smoked bacon, vine tomato, green lettuce, and a cheeky little sauvignon blanc.

    Couldn't skip Godiva truffles for dessert.

    ... I kinda love myself right now.

    "FOOD"

    That meal looks incredible.

    Also, while In N Out is pretty good, I'm personally of the mind that Five Guys beats it out by a hair. And the East Coast has Five Guys! :)

    I love how their single is a double. Cajun fries are amazing and they just dump fries in the bag.. DAMNIT ALAN! Now I want five guys..

    Five Guys IS pretty decent, especially their fries cooked in peanut oil. But then of course my cooking beats Five Guys. :p

    All this talk of food is making me hungry. I think I'll go drown out my craving with some hard rock. (With the help of a little hard cider.) ;)
  • edited January 2012
    I third the Five Guys bit. I actually think their fries are better than In N Out fries.

    I laughed so hard I spit out my coffee. Looks like I picked the wrong week to stop drinking.

    EDIT: Also, puzzlebox, I am incredibly envious of your incredible, godlike meal.

    I've already eaten, and Puzzlebox's pics still make me feel hungry!

    If you had shaped the goat's cheese into a little Max head with bacon ears, maybe you would have won Telltale's latest contest instead!

    You've got to think bigger, WarpSpeed. You need to melt a blend of cheeses a sauces into a mold, deep fry that sucker and wrap it in bacon strips and bacon strips and bacon strips and *Boot to the head*

    Sorry, I've been watching too much Epic Meal Time recently.

    Freddie Mercury.

    That reminds me of one of the best Google doodles ever seen. It starts off normal, then it keeps going, and then somehow we get
    Freddie Mercury in SPACE shooting aliens with rainbows, and moustachioed bears on bicycles
    .

    I love that it's someone's job to come up with this stuff.
