Trump is slapping DeSantis, governor of Florida, and currently the main threat to Trump's return (like a dog returns to its vomit).

I don't know who StatOLib is slapping. Fire in the torch? StatOLib has been holding that thing up since 1886; can you imagine the gas bill for 137 years of eternal flame? New York can't afford to fix its subways, let alone paying for symbolic fires. StatOLib is not trans. (she, her) is a French peasant; they all look like that. Because they've been walking behind the horses plowing the fields, shoveling shit out of the barn, force feeding the geese, wallowing in vats of grapes in the Champaign district.

Tucker Carlson?

A Lebanese deli in Minneapolis serves it raw or cooked. The raw version's consistency, mouth feel, and flavor just doesn't work for me. The baked version, on the other hand, is terrific. They also make superior tabouli.

Wow, didn’t know about that. I just looked it up. I like steak tartare and that looks kinda similar so I shall try it.

Could be. I've never watched Tucker Carlson.

You’d love him!

Tucker Carlson? — Jamal

Yes.

it was my first Lebanese restaurant — Jamal

:gasp: They're all over the place in NY, and definitely exist in other areas of the US. @BC that must be a pretty authentic Lebanese spot. I haven't seen the raw version on menus here.

Wow. That's hardcore.

To be a newscaster, are you required to change your first name to a last name?

I cut my finger making a meat pie, so here I sit in the ER. I'm hungry and my finger hurts.

A great time to philosophise then

IHOP has pancakes

The news of your damaged digit cut deep. Tragic!

You can buy frozen meat pies. I have heard you can get frozen pancakes, too, so no need to risk going to IHOP, per @Frank.

BTW, that adage about sharp knives being safer than dull knives does not apply to amateur cooks.

So I get to follow up with a hand specialist on Monday. My wife asked me how much the hand job would cost. A marriage made in heaven.

The story behind it is that I was chopping rosemary, but something went wrong. I'm not sure what...

Wait for it.

Wait for it.

I can't put my finger on it.

And the drumroll.

I haven't slowed a bit.

You can barely see where they bandaged it:



The other hand was injured as well where I punched the wall, which did offer some temporary relief, so I'm glad I did it.

The finger can still hurt even if it's gone.

But please leave me alone, I promise that I will not take part in the shoutbox again. — javi2541997

What's going on?

Big brown bandage. :up:

Goes nicely with the golden wheat walls.

Recent purchase:

Yes! The glove of protection! I thought of that when i saw your finger photo. I’ve used one for several years and here I am typing away with 8 healthy fingers!


...and two working thumbs too. :smile: :up: :up:

About the glove... it’s great but mine absorbs everything it touches- tomato juice, avocados, etc. You could wash it after it gets stained then hope it’s dry for next use. Or (one thing I’ve been meaning to try) put a latex glove over the protector glove so food particles wash off quickly.

Turns out the raw version was available and I missed it. Next time.

I've always noticed that oyster shuckers and fish cleaners wore gloves, but I never thought about why.

Now I get it!

, but what about the wall...?

Haha! :lol: (even though you were being at least partially serious).
Hope your fingers feels better. Keep the big bandage to put on your middle finger, when driving to use in communication with other drivers. :snicker:

Could you give us more clinical information on your finger? Like, did you slice the fleshy end off, and maybe some of the nail? Make a long cut in the side of the finger? Sever the whole finger? How many stitches? On a scale of 1 to 10--with 10 being really really bad--how much did it hurt? How much did you bleed? ("If I slice my finger off, do I not bleed?" W.S.)

A couple of years ago I bought a very sharp potato peeler. On its first use, I was peeling a small potato and my thumb got in the way; it sliced off about 1/3 of my thumb nail - vertically. The doctor at urgent care had to cut the nail off.

I've since been more aware of the potato peeler's hostility to humans and their famously opposing thumbs.

Plus, is there a hole in the wall?

You have tiny hands, man. :chin:

My wall or Hanover's wall?

My guess is he’ll be sending those x-large cut resistant gloves back to Amazon for smaller ones.
