    I love Ancient Aliens...but if I hear the phrase: "Ancient Astronaut Theorists" one more goddamn time I'm going to self-destruct. WTF does it even mean!? Does it mean the Astronaut Theorists that are/were ancient? Does it mean Ancient Astronauts who were also theorists? Does it mean there are people who theorize about Ancient Astronauts? Why...OH WHY...would they use such an unwieldy-ass title when they could just say "crazy-ass fringe pseudoscientists!?" I mean...it's really killing the comedic factor of the show for me.

    EDIT: Does anyone else come up with names for the different AA staff? Ruffed-Grousse Man and Marijuana Man are my two favs. They carry the whole damn show.

    Maybe there should be a hyphen in there? Ancient-Astronaut Theorists. It's not "Ancient, Astronaut Theorists". But it can't be "Ancient Astronaut, Theorists". That's two seperate things.

    See!? That's what I mean! But it's not clear if you hear it aloud! They can't enunciate the ****ing hyphen, so no one knows what the hell they're talking about! In my mind, I heard: "Is Bigfoot just a figment of overactive imagination or is it a ghost alien archangel as some Ancient Astronaut Theorists believe." And those words are just jumbled and impart nothing...the only thing they do is blend with the rest of every ridiculous sentence you tack them on to.

    A resource teacher that had to share the classroom with me & the 2 ESL teachers I worked with (yeah. 3 teachers shoved in 1 classroom. w00t) got an email about a girl named "Le-a".

    How do you say it?

    "LAY-uh"? "Leah"?

    Uh uh.

    "Luh-DAYSH-uh"

    Momma said "You gotta pronounce the dash".

    Thus, the dash can be enunciated & pronounced.

    ...... Mmmmmhhhhhmmm

    Yep. I never would have figured it out but my ex was a teacher and we had the same situation. That's how it's pronounced.

    omg. I went grocery shopping at Aldi the other day and made my dad's spaghetti with the ground beef and tomato sauce I got from there.

    NEVER. EVER. Buy their ground beef or tomato sauce. Unless both can be heavily masked somehow with some other flavors.
    I didn't even try it until after I'd fed it to my kid and I was like "Is it good, babe?" and she was all "Yes mommy!", but she didn't eat much, so I figured she didn't -really- like it. I took a bite and nearly yakked. Biggest cooking fail ever.

    On a side note, 'cuz the Jay eats so much, that $50 I spent there is nearly all eaten. I will kill him. That was supposed to last until Friday.

    "Their" as in who? How do you **** up frying meat in a pan and boiling noodles? Add salt and pepper for taste on the meat. Thats like nr1.

    Ok. Aldi - if you don't know - is like the cheapest grocery store -ever- on the planet.

    Maybe it wasn't the meat.

    Maybe it was the tomato sauce that was nasty.

    I don't eff up anything I cook. Like -ever-. The chicken I bought from there seemed okay. I just grilled it and made shredded tacos.

    But either way, the spaghetti sauce was disgusting. And I begged and pleaded for years for my dad to give me his recipe, even though there's nothing really all that special to it. Just his method of cooking it, I guess. He absolutely insists on using Hunt's brand tomato sauce & paste. I thought he was just BSing on that one, but it turns out, you really can tell the difference between it and other brands. My mom effed up and bought like ... Oh idk. Something else. He & I both noticed.

    Not a fan of Hunts. I guess it's just not what I'm used to? I prefer Ragu. Somewhere, in the world, an Italian just dropped dead.

    Well.. I don't use the actual -Marinara- sauce. Just the Hunts brand canned tomato sauce & paste. Just 'cuz that's how my dad does it and it's what I'm used to. XD He just chops up onion and browns ground beef with the onion & like a stick of butter and then pours in the sauce & paste with some garlic salt, and a tomato paste can of water and lets it simmer all day. Nun fancy or anything.

    Yeah, I have tried Hunts tomato paste before and it's too watery and lacks flavor for me. I boil water, throw in noodles and cook to al dente, throwing in butter made from yogurt. Then throw like half a container of Ragu in a pot and heat it up, sprinkle a handful of minced onions (or chopped), stirring 100% of the time. I don't like ground beef in my spaghetti, but I do use chicken sometimes if I want a bigger meal with more protein. It's like...when I'm lazy and I don't wanna make a big meal I do this. Takes minimal effort to boil pasta and it tastes delicious.

    And now this thread is about pasta. Officially.

    Eh yeah. Errbody got different tastes. My dad would probably die, but I throw in fresh chopped garlic with it all. If you let it cook uncovered, though, the water will evaporate and it'll thicken up. Otherwise, mix up a bit of corn starch in cold water and throw it in. It's the same as using flour, you just don't have to use nearly as much to do the same job.

    Did you know there's about 12% of the population that gets a soapy taste from cilantro? I'm so ****ing sorry for those 12%, they don't even know what they are missing.

    I did know that actually! One of my regulars at the Mexican restaurant I worked at mentioned that the salsa tasted off and asked if we put cilantro in it. And he told me that. This was back in 2009 or so. I love cilantro. I cook a lot of Messcan food, so I'm always using it.
