How was the rest of your meal?

it was crap
the meat was tough and dry, we had salad and baked potato because that's what my roommate wanted.
But it's okay, I had a proper roast at my mums yesterday with potatoes and carrots and celery and it was awesome.

So a mixed bag then?

yeah, she used a packet :(
but it was still, way fucking better than mine
the roommate was pushing me to cook it on saturday and we didn't have seasoning, and she was all "just use water in a pan" and it came out exactly how I thought it would

Celery with a Roast?
That sounds vile

naa, braise some celery in white wine, or even just roast it and it's pretty nice

I've never liked the stuff, raw or cooked

fair enough
I don't mind it raw, but cooked it is pretty good and is an excellent stock ingredient

it takes more calories to burn than are actually in it
this should really be true of chocolate.

but it isn't.

It isn't really true of celery either
It's just we aren't capable of metabolising most of the calorific content of celery

this is one of those times where the thing that everyone knows is wrong

science is not always right
and is seldom appealing

science is far more right than pseudo-science

I got really pissed off with an article in the Evening Standard
which was stating, as if it were fact, that house prices in London will rise by 30% in 5 years.

chances are, if they keep harping on about it, and other media do as well
then they will be right.

cunts.

Which reminds me

Which has made me feel much better about the human race.

that is quite interesting
I don't remember the original claims though, did they claim that almost all people followed the orders?
