At import prices, or if you're a lean meat puritan, I can understand this comment. Otherwise, what a shame. Anyway there's always Matsuzaka.

I've tasted Kobe, it's an excellent meat but way too much overpriced; I've tasted others which can be compared to it, but which are much less expensive. It's pretty similar to what happens with other "niche" products (i.e. the Jamon Serrano from Spain), they are undoubtedly good products, but their fame and price are connected more to their exclusivity or excellent marketing (i.e. the Chianti wine), than to their effective quality.

If UBI became an actual thing, people like you and I would probably make it a dismal failure

Amd that’s why it should never be a thing. I would also probably make it a failure

The % of our economy that would go towards OnlyFans simping would be off the charts

Finishing a working week ^^



Skal!

[Inkie]

I just got epically ninja'd, at a time of day nobody is around

Cheers, and otsukaresama (you must be tired, or 'good work'). On my end I have a couple bottles of chardonnay, mont d'or fondue and prosciutto to look forward to this evening. Can't wait.

[Morticia Iunia Bruti]

That fondue looks delicious in Google and a good wine is always fine.

4:49 am the right time for a good night whisky

@Inkie: Ooooooh I am jealous

@Morty: Comfy lookin' chairs.

[Morticia Iunia Bruti]

There are perfectly comfy for long Carcassone, Monopoly or other games.

Tail end of a night out?

I consumed all of that, preceded by some steamed clams. I still feel phyiscally uneasy from all of the indulgence. Eurgh it didn't used to be like this.

[Morticia Iunia Bruti]

No, i wasn't out. I came from work, brought some food from a turkish dinner with me and then bought the ingredients for baking cookies for my spouse till 10.00 PM (He likes baking, i more for eating ).

Then we looked Harry Potter and the half blood prince and he went to bed and i had some time for me. I need a partnerfree time sometimes. ^^

And the whisky was the tail end.

And after doing the shopping for next week today, i'm heating a white Silvaner glow wine now.

Christmas market feeling wothout christmas markets in Covid19 times.

My meals until Christmas are for the most part going to be boring. Eggs+rice with peppers; all in the name of weight loss.

Somehow failed to answer this, although I don't disagree. All highly-marbled domestic beef is damned expensive here.

That sounds pretty much like Friday night for the married

I was going to add something clever about staying up until 4:50 drinking whiskey while your partner is asleep, but then I realised I'm drinking
Glühwein alone, it's 4:15 and my partner is long asleep.

So damn good. Are you guys watching through the series again?

Here's an amazing documentary I watched the other day about the making of Harry Potter. Gives me happy feels.

I could never date someone who didn't get this.

Kar just needs his alone time sometimes.

[Påsan]

I had a get together with a few friends and we rated fifteen different brands of christmas beer. They were all i hate christmas beer. The expensive one i spent 15€ on was the worst.

That is all.

[ggggtotalwarrior]

Pooosan

how is life you beautiful northern bastard?

Also I expect 5 TOTW submissions by tomorrow or I am sending everyone with a post in this thread to the gulag

[Akar]

What the hell is a christmas beer?

[ggggtotalwarrior]

A beer made and marketed as having a holiday themed flavor that doesn’t at all mesh with the actual taste of beer

[Akar]

Oh so its just a bad idea

Yeah last weekend we started with Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone and tonight we looked the last two parts (,Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows), while drinking a white Silvaner Glühwein.

I think let the other his personal free space is one of the reasons, we are married since 15 years.
