  • Do you have a crockpot? If so, there are many.

    My favorite is the classic Mississippi pot roast:

    • 2-4lb pot roast (it’s a beef cut, “bottom round roast” or “chuck roast” work great)
    • Half stick of butter cut into chunks to spread them out
    • Packet of ranch dressing seasoning
    • Packet of au jus gravy seasoning
    • Pepperoncini peppers from the jar, and some of the liquid if you want

    Crockpot low for 6 hours then shred and eat however you want. So you have to plan in advance but the prep itself takes 60 seconds.











  • Ok so the whole “the other kids are just jealous” thing is, I think, disengenious.

    Sometimes kids just suck. They make fun of other kids for anything. They aren’t necessarily jealous. They might be uncomfortable. They might be vindictive at the time. They might basically be playing “spot the difference” (i.e. that kid dances, my friend doesn’t dance, look that’s different) so they make fun of one side of that equation.

    In this case, I feel like the kids probably were not jealous. I feel like they were just idiot kids. Same end result but I don’t know, it seems unhelpful to bullying victims to just tell them that everyone is jealous of them, sadly that’s not usually the case.




  • I think it is great that you were able to gain so much from reading his books. I personally did not. That is not to say the values you drew from them are invalid in any way. It’s not an assault on you personally. You liked his books, I didn’t. Both of those things are ok. So no, I am not joking. While I have read other works that impress me to the level that you describe, Game of Thrones did not do so for me.
