Re: Common things you've never done
Since the dawn of time, my measure of the food quality at your typical "bar and grill" is "how good is the Reuben?"
I also make the best corned beef hash...it consists of not only the leftover corned beef and potatoes, but cabbage and carrots. My wife said he favorite part of my corned beef dinners is the breakfast the next day.

She's Filipino. These are some of their foods:
Atchara - a sweet pickled papaya relish.
Bagoong - fermented anchovy paste or shrimp paste
Banana ketchup
...
Lechon sauce - also known as liver sauce or breadcrumb sauce made out of ground liver or liver pâté, vinegar, sugar, and spices
It's almost as if people are the problem.

It's everything from the pot the corned beef is cooked in, diced and fried in butter. What is horrific about that? It has a shit ton more flavor than the crap from the can.

Re: Common things you've never done
Their idea of corned beef is what's horrific. It comes in a can and resembles spam. I made the mistake once of ordering it for breakfast at their most popular fast food restaurant.Isgrimnur wrote: ↑Tue Mar 06, 2018 2:13 pm She's Filipino. These are some of their foods:

I would not suggest smoking your first joint before getting on a plane. Or doing anything where you'll be surrounded by people.

Re: Common things you've never done
I've never been arrested, although I have been detained and have sat in a cop car(not the front seat either).
I've never been to a funeral, not even for the people I was closest to. If funerals are for the ones left behind, well there's nothing I want to hear from anyone or say to anyone there so count me out.
I've never quit a job. I've been fired, I've lost jobs for other reasons but never did the "I quit!" stomp out the door.

As others have said, I've never skied (snowing or water). I've never gone skinny dipping. Can't think of much else at the moment. Uh, I've never had a colonoscopy?

Re: Common things you've never done
Etymology time!!!!
"Corn" originally meant a small, hard particle of some kind (such as salt), and was freely translated back and fort with the Latin granum (which gives us "grain").
So, yeah: salted. It's also why "corn" often meant what we now call "wheat" in European history before the European discovery of maize ("Indian corn").
Much prefer my Nazis Nuremberged.

Re: Common things you've never done
I've never left the country of my birth. I did live in Papua New Guinea for a while in the 70s, but it was an Australian Territory when we moved there.
I've never touched snow. I saw it once outside my home (also in the 70s, in Tasmania) but I wasn't allowed to go outside.
I've never been through a breakup. I married the first girl I ever went out with. We were 14 when we got together and that was 35 years ago.

I still remember when your late great countryman Ian Trout came to visit. I had to lend him a coat because he was unprepared for the weather here.

With Cebu Pacific offering cheap flights from the Philippines to AU, it's not unpossible that I'll show up on your doorstep first. But if you make it here, we have a spare bedroom...
