Sorry, gay rage.

/agree with the leggings are not pants motion. And I simply don't like the high belt as it triggers the "is she wearing that wrong or is she horribly misformed?" thought pattern.

Girl on the photo is hotness.

And it does indeed look like she's got legs that go all the way down.

As opposed to legs that go half way down to the ground?

Thank you for that link. That was.....far more incredible than I expected, and washed away the unclean taint of Miley Cyrus and Avril Latrine from my mind.

Edit to fix a borked quote.

Pigtails, I do wear them under really short dresses... just not long shirts. I wear actual trousers with those.

1) Coffee crusted steak. Mix Coffee with some salt and ground pepper, adjusting the amounts per taste. Mostly coffee though**. Rub this mixture into the steak so it gets a good crust. When the steak is done, let it sit for 1/2 hour or so. Heat up a heavy pan with butter and some canola oil. (this lets you get butter flavour but keeps the butter from burning. cook the steak*** Let this sit for 10 minutes before eating. Taking the steak out of the pan and putting it onto another plate to rest allows you to fry your mushrooms in the pan which will let them pick up all sorts of flavour. This is a good time to add some of the beer, or some wine to help dissolve the flavours off the pan. Not too much though, you don't want a gravy.

2) I'd suggest serving this with a simple mixed green salad with a vinaigrette dressing to set a lighter contrast while maintaining the bitter note. A balsamic reduction would work well here.

3) this is a really good but fairly simple potato that would go nicely http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/garlic-hasselback-potatoes-with-herbed-sour-cream-recipe/index.html

You could also eat this with other starches, but I think a nice roasted potato would work best.

The coffee will go well with the chocolate and dark fruity notes, while giving a bitterness to the dish that will contrast nicely with the richness of the beer and keep it from being overwhelming.

** a decent way to do this would be to lightly salt and pepper the steak (more pepper if you're a pepper fiend like me) then add as much coffee as the steak will hold. You also have the option to rub the steak beforehand with olive oil, this will allow the crust to be thicker.


*** You can cook it in the pan entirely at a slightly lower temperature, or sear it at a higher temperature and finish it in the oven. I don't know how much experience you have cooking steaks.

Another option is to go with a spicy pork dish. Give it quite a bit of heat so it competes with the beer. I think I'd go with the first though, and mushrooms wouldn't work at all with spicy pork.

You could also do a coffee crusted roast, if you wanted to make more meat at once. If you're interested in this I can give details on how I'd cook it if you want.

I was just wondering, is Aposematic still up and running? And if it's up and running, how active is it?
I thought I might roll a new toon on KazzakEU if it's active. Or transfer some toon over there.

Immigrants from Canada, the US, Australia, New Zealand and Japan are exempt from the tests.





Also, I might come back to Kazzak in the summer, if I have Internet. That's still something I'm not sure about, though. After the summer, I effectively need to score 90% or more on average on all my assignments at uni, so I shouldn't play any vidya games at that point.

I don't think it's weird. It's just the most developed countries outside Europe.

As long as the gays are male at least.

The problem is that many of those people are fine with it as long as it is behind closed doors. There's a reason gay kisses are extraordinarily rare on network television.

But, of course, that's for gay men. Women don't face nearly the same problem (assuming that they are, you know, vastly above average in looks).

In other news, gay kisses in front of evangelical Christian bible-thumpers are hilarious.
