Today at 4:02AM The (not) Daily Quote- May 9th, 2008
Since I suggested people watch an episode of Anthony Bourdain's old show A Cook's Tour, I figured a quote I like from one of his books might be appropriate.
Vegetarians, and their Hezbollah-like splinter faction, the vegans, are a persistent irritant to any chef worth a damn. To me, life without veal stock, pork fat, sausage, organ meat, demi-glace, or even stinky cheese is a life not worth living. Vegetarians are the enemy of everything good and decent in the human spirit, and an affront to all I stand for, the pure enjoyment of food. The body, these waterheads imagine, is a temple that should not be polluted by animal protein. It's healthier, they insist, though every vegetarian waiter I've worked with is brought down by any rumor of a cold. Oh, I'll accommodate them, I'll rummage around for something to feed them, for a 'vegetarian plate', if called on to do so. Fourteen dollars for a few slices of grilled eggplant and zucchini suits my food cost fine.
-Anthony Bourdain (from his memoir, Kitchen Confidential)

'Mikey calls home'
Mikey's Mom: Hi, you've reached the Simon residence. If your message is for Ms. Simon, press 1.
Mikey's Dad: And if it's for me, Mr. Simon, press 2.
Mikey's Mom: And if you're our only child in Japan and your calling cause you're all alone in a big empty room and you miss the comforting sound of another human voice, stay on the line as we read from a list of words chosen at random from the dictionary.
Mikey's Dad: Vernacular
Mikey's Mom: Flibbertigibbet
Mikey's Dad: Mortgage
Mikey's Mom: Pedal
Mikey's Dad: Disenfranchise
'Mikey hangs up'

The (not) Daily Quote- April 6th, 2008
Sebastian: Did you ever hear the one about Superman and Wonder Woman?
Matt: Stop clowning around
Sebastian: No come on this is a good one. Superman's flying around Metropolis and he's horny as hell. He's checking out the rooftops and all of a sudden he sees Wonder Woman sunning herself on the roof of the Justice League. I mean she is lying there buck naked and spread eagle. Looks like she wants to get fucked right? So Superman starts thinking to himself, "Man I gotta get myself some of that wonderpussy." and then he realizes that he can fly down, do a little fast pumping and be gone before she even sees him. Because he's Superman, he's faster than a speeding bullet, right? So Superman, he swoops down, he fucks her so quick, she doesn't even see him. Wonder Woman sits up and says, "What the fuck was that?" and The Invisible Man says "I don't know but my asshole is killing me." That's funny right?
Matt: Hmm...
Sebastian: C'mon, guys. That's funny.
