[2:37 PM] Mr. Silver:
"If she's a ballerina, she should have some clothes on," said Tonette Watts, 57, a resident and mother of a teen girl (who doesn't care), who stopped and stared at the statue on her way to work. "If you've got kids you do not want them seeing that."
Another parent, Keith Verville, 48, studied the sculpture and then asked: "Why is it so big? And SO not clothed? … Not that I mind. Zow!"
Son: "I want to go on that ride, Daddy." Father: "Me, too, Son."
Oops... that last one was from "Dude, Where's My Car?"
[2:42 PM] Mr. Blue:
I don’t get why people are posing in front of it
Will you need to prove to someone that you visited the giant ballerina in San Leandro?
[9:51 AM] Ms. Rose:
This is fascinating. I'm 5 minutes in and I really wish I could get my hands on some vintage Tupperware.
You know it's going to be good when they are cartoon dinosaurs and a drawing of "the Earth's crust--where plastic comes from!"
[10:01 AM] Mr. Brown:
Old commercials are fun
[10:01 AM] Ms. Rose:
I just LOVE this! I was born too late.
The "computer" at 14 minutes in! LOLOL
...at "lightning-like speed!"
[10:11 AM] Mr. Blue:
Tupperware! A division of ConAg Chemical Concern, Rancid Lake Oregon."
[10:11 AM] Ms. Rose:
LOL
OMG, the "housewives" are singing about their "unique home party experience!" :|
It's a CULT!
Go to 23 minutes.
[10:15 AM] Mr. Silver:
I can't! I'm talking to an idiot!
[10:17 AM] Ms. Rose:
You hang up, right now, and watch this Tupperware video!
[10:17 AM] Mr. Brown:
I always look for that old tuppaware at yard sales, because it works better than the stuff we have today
[10:18 AM] Ms. Rose:
Better living through chemicals "from the age of dinosaurs!"
The candle-lighting ceremony is kind of... They should make this into a dubbed horror movie.
Tupperware is in all 50 states, AND Puerto Rico!
[10:22 AM] Mr. Brown:
Ms. Rose the beginning of that commercial with the words zoomed way in. For a dirty minded person that is a bad start
[10:23 AM] Ms. Rose:
No, it's *awesome!*
[10:28 AM] Mr. Brown:
Watching it get made is satisfying
LOL
Wow! That guy writing is very precise
[10:31 AM] Mr. Silver:
(envies all the cool kids watchin' Tupperware vids)
[10:33 AM] Ms. Rose:
The "factory workers" look better than I do on my best day.
[10:33 AM] Mr. Blue:
It says "slut" at the end twice
[10:34 AM] Ms. Rose:
HAHAHAHA! I know!
[10:36 AM] Mr. Silver:
Slut?
[10:38 AM] Mr. Blue:
It says "bye" in a bunch of different languages and slut is two of them
[10:38 AM] Mr. Silver:
Hehe! Three if you'll grant an extra T, and that placement was clearly on purpose.
"El Fine
Slutt"
[10:39 AM] Ms. Rose:
"Buy some Tupperware, slut!"
[11:44 AM] Mr. Brown:
I love these Brussels sprouts I made
[11:44 AM] Ms. Rose:
Finally, we agree on a food issue, Mr. Brown.
[11:44 AM] Mr. Brown:
Fried them in bacon grease with brown sugar and salt and pepper
Did the same with some cabbage on Saturday
With adding back the bacon crumbled and onions
So many things you can fry in bacon grease
LOL
[11:50 AM] Mr. Silver:
What's better than fried bacon? Bacon fried IN bacon!
Actually, I started broiling bacon. Whole trays.
Don't know if anyone else is doing it, but it's great as long as you pay proper attention.
Best method I've found (invented) to date after the online fad fraud - "bake with a little water in the pan"
(More than one internet “Chef”) "Just lay out the strips in a tray, and pour in a bit of water! The fat will render, and the resulting disgusting mess cooks in only 40-45 minutes! ...Maybe!"
It takes forever and it never gives good results.
I tried it a few times before deciding it was another internet cooking scam.
Some international conspiracy of online "chefs" must have agreed to it as their April Fool’s Day gag.
[11:55 AM] Mr. Brown:
Yeah. Mrs. Brown normally will get out a rack, set it in a pan, put it in the oven.
All the grease drips down to the pan through the rack. The bacon does not sit in it then.
[11:56 AM] Mr. Blue:
I prefer sausage
Always, over bacon
[11:56 AM] Mr. Brown:
I have always been a pan fryer of bacon
[11:56 AM] Mr. Silver:
I like both (sausage and bacon)
[11:57 AM] Mr. Brown:
I hate wasting all that good bacon grease though
I always start looking for things to throw in it while it’s hot
[11:58 AM] Mr. Silver:
"Bring the kids' toys in here, hon! Fast!"
[11:59 AM] Mr. Blue:
LOL
[12:01 PM] Ms. Rose:
I've never seen a My Little Pony melt so fast!
Oh, wait. You have boys. (Insert G.I. Joe toy)
[12:01 PM] Mr. Brown:
Sometimes I’ll get out the lunch meats
And start frying them in bacon grease
I guess I could do some fries next time
[12:02 PM] Mr. Blue:
Der fleischmensch
[12:02 PM] Mr. Brown:
If one of them wanted a My Little Pony I would not stop them but I would tell them to get Rainbow Dash cause that one is the best
[12:02 PM] Ms. Rose:
"You want an Easy-Bake Oven, son? Fine. But it has to be the deluxe ultra-sparkle pink glitter model." :P
[12:03 PM] Mr. Brown:
No it has to be large size
Those little things make just a tiny bite
[12:04 PM] Mr. Silver:
When are they putting out a lightbulb powered grill?
"Easy-Grill Weber!"
(tiny pieces of chicken and steak)
[12:09 PM] Mr. Blue:
From the makers of EZ Bake Oven, Lil' Tailgater Grill
[12:05 PM] Mr. Brown:
They had those gummies makers I think, too
Edible bugs made from chemicals, basically
[12:08 PM] Mr. Silver:
Back to broiling bacon since I'm hungry now...
So you take your tray and your bacon...
Put the oven on broil.
You can actually fold the bacon slices in half to make twice as much this way.
Stick it in till you hear sizzling...
Rotate the pan
Wait a bit.
Pull out the tray and flip the slices.
Back in...wait for sizzle...rotate pan...wait a minute
Pull out the tray and drain fat from the tray...
Back in...repeat until done.
You can eyeball how crispy it is
You get nice bit-o-burny edges on the fatty parts that stick up
It’s mostly drained before you take it off the tray...I rarely pat down.
And it's not covered with charred specks like you get using a pan.
[12:10 PM] Ms. Rose:
Way too complicated. Get in car. Drive to Wendy's. Order 2 Baconators, extra bacon. Done.
[10:00 AM] Mr. Brown:
So Mr. Silver, you had a ghostly experience at thrift store?
[10:02 AM] Mr. Silver:
Yeah, I got assaulted at the Salvation Army Thrift Store last night
[10:03 AM] Mr. Brown:
Was not a vampire
[10:03 AM] Mr. Silver:
No
Don't know what I touched or what I said, but it got nasty.
[10:03 AM] Ms. Rose:
My Monday nights are never that fun. :(
[10:05 AM] Mr. Brown:
You know, thinking about it thrift stores would be a hotbed
So much stuff with attachments
[10:14 AM] Mr. Silver:
Hehe...
Got a flash just now about what maybe happened
I'm wondering if it was the pants leg
We went there looking for boots for Silver Jr.'s Jedi costume and something for Mrs. Silver's ghost idea.
Anyway, the Jedi thing had two options undecided.
Big brown cloak, or huge sleeves.
vis
And I spot this pair of women's pants...right color for the sleeves. I go over and start messing with the fabric, holding up the legs, and considering the cut that would work.
Then sticking my arms inside, up the legs...and having Silver Jr. do the same...
Maybe she thought I was feeling her up?
[10:21 AM] Ms. Rose:
Obvi.
[10:21 AM] Mr. Blue:
It’s cool that you guys get creative with your costumes and don't just go to the store and buy a mask or a whole pre-made outfit
No fun in that
[10:22 AM] Mr. Brown:
Some people are not artsy enough
[10:23 AM] Mr. Blue:
It’s not even about art as much as time / effort
[10:25 AM] Ms. Rose:
When you and Silver Jr. come to our house for candy, I'll say "Nice costume! How many chick ghosts did you have to feel up?!" :P
[10:25 AM] Mr. Silver:
Hehe
Thanks for the compliment, Mr. Blue. :)
[10:30 AM] Mr. Blue:
I hope it pays off in the candy loot.. cuz I’d certainly give more for the effort
[10:31 AM] Mr. Silver:
It usually does
Probably never getting the Ooos and Ahhhs of the light show again, though
[10:32 AM] Ms. Rose:
That was nuts last year. Silver Jr. cleared out enough candy for a whole block of kids.
