You should start making sarcastic reddit posts just to mess with people. You've already got most of the style - just add a few random caps.
I believe if you look somewhere around page 1 of this thread you’ll see my seminal gripe that people lack situational awareness.Quote:

fuck you
get over yourself
Poison oak annoys me. Got a nice rash going on one arm right now. Our trails are super overgrown right now and PO is growing out from behind other bushes. I'm usually good at spotting it but those sniper branches are easy to miss when hidden among other stuff.

Flashing 3rd brake lights on late model cars. I think it's a dealer-installed "safety" upsell. Every time the user brakes, the CHMSL flashes 3 times.
Annoying and distracting af, I bet it causes more problems than it solves. See it a lot on Kias and Subarus.
There's a reason cars don't come the factory like that, and I wonder if it's even legal.

Freezing hard cheeses is disastrous though, they end up crumbly and dry as fuck. Now I vacuum-seal them and keep them in the fridge, some have lasted almost a year and were 90% fine.
One thing that REALLY annoys me: I still haven't found a single place that makes good French bread in SLC, or anywhere I've been in the US for that matter. There are solid wheat breads, sourdoughs, other weird breads, but a French-style baguette or country bread? Nope. Even in "French" boulangeries in NYC. The stuff never has the right texture and dries way too fast. WTF is that about? Flour, water, yeast, there aren't that many variables and yet... Some of the best French baguettes I've had are from Costco and an industrial bread place that used to sell at Smiths' (La Brea?). How is it possible that any random corner boulangerie in France can crank out better bread than pretty much anything you can find in the US?
If I ever make fuck you money at work and get to retire and pursue a pet project it will be to try and remedy this abomination. I'm financing a legit boulangerie and importing a salty French bread artist, mostly to feed my personal habit.
Jeezus. 5lbs?Quote:

And why aren't you baking your own baguettes, ya filthy frog?!? :D
Pretty sure the issue with NA bread vs European is the grain variety. Something about pre-sliced bread triggering a need for wheat strain that holds bread moisture better, and the trade-off is the natural sweetness of the bread (the increased bitterness is somewhat offset by added sweetener in NA doughs). Since the market is so large, hard to find a grower that is specific to European wheat varieties in NA, but maybe they are out there?Quote:

Fuck you money will let me purchase and re-purpose a really large agro conglomerate in the midwest and replace all their wheat varieties with that good French shit. Dream big!!Quote:

Need a better over for that I guess.
