12 fucking nailed it. And sadly, that type is starting to outnumber real cooks in the restaurant industry. And, again sadly, the problem is particularly prevalent in Seattle. Probably because most of the truly talented aspiring chefs end up leaving for NYC, SF, Vegas, etc. The wage scale in this town for cooks SUCKS compared to other similarly-sized cities, so you have to be a sucker who's willing to work your ass off for peanuts just because you'd rather be poor in the PNW than killing it anywhere else. I know, because I'm one of those suckers.

@11, you don't exactly help your credibility when you say ignorant things like "agent orange or napalm as it used to be called".
Agent Orange is a defoliant that was used in Vietnam in an attempt to make it so enemy troops couldn't disappear into the jungle. Napalm is essentially jellied gasoline that was dropped in bombs because it's one of the most horrifying ways imaginable to kill other human beings. They are NOT the same thing.

Are all poly people as screechingly pedantic and boring as the ones in this thread? Because I kind of like the idea of polyamory in theory but I'm starting to think that in practice, it's just a bunch of jerkoffs whose white middle-class lives leave them desperate to pigeonhole themselves into some sort of oppressed class or special-snowflake otherness.

Ann Romano is terrible. And how many goddamn vacations does David Schmader take in a year?

This is a pretty awesome and informative discussion. It would be even better, however, if Hyacinth would stop with her crybaby "woe is me" bullshit. This is the internet, honey. If you're looking for affirmation and unconditional support maybe you should talk to Dr. Phil instead of a bunch of anonymous strangers.

Perhaps you need to use a dictionary and familiarize yourself with the definition of "bemused". It's exactly the right word.

@69 - I believe that you should take your manufactured outrage over something that didn't happen to you and stick it straight up your ass.

Perhaps #11 underestimates the number of Americans who are tired of some racist idiocy dressed up as "anti-illegal immigration" sentiment, mostly spouted by ignorant white jerkoffs who think that they're somehow better than other people who weren't privileged enough to have been born in between certain arbitrarily-drawn lines on a map.

@1: You know you're just wasting a bunch of pot by doing that, right? Lay off the bong for a night or two and go learn some science about your ganja.

Sounds like we oughtta invite some of those Mujahideen over here. That'd take care of the hipster infestation with a quickness.
