  • I generally avoid Asian restaurants that don’t specifically advertise as vegan or Buddhist because I’ve received authentic food that was definitely riddled with fish sauce or some form of shrimp even though the staff reassured me it was ‘veggie safe’.

    I don’t blame them, a lot of the food is preprepared and I’m the 1 in 100 weirdo that is asking for their most popular dish with all the delicious stuff removed.

    I once got an order of pad Thai (no fish sauce, no meat, no egg) that was just oily noodles and cilantro. They even left off the peanuts, probably to be on the safe side allergy wise. I have that soap gene so the cilantro was nearly overpowering.

    If I hadn’t been on a date I would have just paid the bill and given the leftovers to the crazy woman that sings to pigeons down the street.










  • Yeah, by '03 JNCOs were just kind of baggy jeans at Kohls with cringe ‘urban’ embroidery on the back pockets.

    Mainstreamers wore distressed bootcut jeans with the goal to look like you had stolen them off a rodeo clown that never washed them. (See also huge belt buckles and straw cowboy hats that looked like they were found at the bottom of a forgotten silver mine.

    ‘Girlfriend’ jeans started getting popular with skaters, the skinny cut and stretch denim were supposedly easier to skate in than the big baggy jeans that had been popular.
