No one's trying to cram anything down your throat, like I said, eat whatever and however the fuck you want to.

Yea the guy in the vid has a pretty strong douchebag vibe to him, and yea he goes about making his point not in the most delicate way. That doesn't change the fact that most of what he says is more or less true.

This isn't about your personal preference, it's about how Sushi, the dish (and Nigiri and Sashimi and whatever) is meant to be eaten, in order to be able to fully appreciate the taste of raw fish.

Again, like it or not, raw fish isn't hamburger or cornflakes or whatever. Being able to appreciate a good slice of raw fish requires that, for example, you don't put fucking ginger on top of it, the whole point of it being there is to cleanse the pallet between the different fish you're eating, so you'll be able to properly taste them - when you put it on top of the fish you're basically guaranteeing that you won't be able to feel the taste. It's there for a practical reason, not as a condiment. Same goes for dipping the entire thing in soy sauce, or whatever.
Even his point about eating with your hands as opposed to chopsticks is sorta valid. Many above-average sushi dishes WILL fall apart when you try and pick them up with chopsticks.

And no, you don't have to go to a 5 Michelin starred restaurant to be able to get a good dish of raw fish. Even a market stand will do if the fish are fresh.

At least realize that this "stench of aristocracy" you're referring to is a Western phenomenon, and you perceive it as such because generally it's much more common to see stuck-up pedantic bastards being strict about these kinds of things, as opposed to most people who just wanna shove crap in their mouths and have it taste "yummy".
That doesn't change the fact that these assholes didn't invent the way sushi is "meant" to be eaten, that there is a difference between a piece of fresh fish and one that's been frozen for months, and that that delicate difference, to be noticeable and appreciable has to be shown the proper respect.
Or you can just deep fry it.

Ant, you are just so damn cute. I've never asked somone what their favorite food is and gotten such an extensive list (and even more impressive...it's in alphabetical order) as a response before. I thought you might say "italian food" or something like that. YOU ARE ADORABLE. Hey, isn't curry too spicy for you?

I'll feed you breakfast....let's have...french toast with sliced bananas on top instead of syrup. Sound good? What do you like to drink?

What, so he's a glutton for wanting to eat both a slice of pizza and a cookie?

I had a cat that used to get in fights (plural, it happened more than once) with coyotes. By the time he was 5-6 years old he was down to about 1/3rd of an ear total, broken tail, permanent limp, sliced lip so he drooled all the time, mangy lookin', etc.

Maybe that level of accumulated battle scars convinced him to retire from fighting, and he survived in that state for another 5 years or so. Tough ol' bastard.

If you give an Aye Aye an orange it will poke a small hole and scoop out all the good parts leaving the membrane between each slice intact. Cut it open and you have a perfectly segmented cup.

Give an Aye Aye a cut portion of carrot and it will create a hollow tube of carrot skin.

Give an Aye Aye a half coconut and it will turn it over (round side up), chew a small hole in it and scrape the meat out, even though it would be much easier to get it from the open side.

Weird obsessive little things.

Given that they had Europe (the band), Maradonas "hand of god" and even a bit of NZ kiwiana ("Slice of Heaven" at 4:55), I don't really think it's fair to say it's focued entirely on American crap culture.

1. the scale on the individual files was way off.

I suspect this has something to do with the printer it was designed for. It seemed very close to being 1 inch = 1 mm. Not a completely uncommon problem. Manually resizing got some files to look right, but I found many simply wouldn’t resize.

2. Almost every single item had errors.

If you’ve done 3d printing, you’ve found that a model can have all kinds of issues that will stop it from printing correctly. I found every single item for the gun had errors. I actually learned a lot about how to repair non-manifold items from this exercise, so it was good in the end.

Some items, like the hammer and the hammer springs simply would not print. I ran them through systems to repair them and fix errors. It would say that everything was fixed, but when I tried to “slice” them for printing, the software would crash. This means that my gun is incomplete. It has no hammer. Not really that big of a deal to me.

I broke this glass with my voice and then sliced my finger off with the glass.

Sure to be another slice of fried gold. Can't wait.

Slicing into your hand probably isn't the wisest technique, protective glove or no.

Small saucepan, into hot peanut oil add thinly sliced, small, new red potatoes(crispier the better); Cook to desired crispy/burntyness. Sprinkle with Tamari or Shoyu and from a shaker, add a dash of powdered wasabi, white, black, or red, or any combo of peppers to taste. MMMMMmmm...

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

The song's fine but the little acting bits- really makes me not want to watch this show. It's a big yellow slice of Velveeta®

That was a little slice of *loveliness*.

Well, to be totally honest I did not imagine this would make it to the top 15 lol. The reason I thought it was siftable was because he is actually quite fast. I mean, its not some eye-popping speed, and he's not even trying, but that's part of what makes it interesting. This is just an "everyday" speed for these guys, and yet few of us probably imagined that an omlette sandwich could be made so quickly. But beyond that, and I hope this is not just me trying to intellectualize it, I would say that I like the surreal quality of the video (the guy's strange paranoia [or whatever] about the camera, the amount of eggs, and the sounds)... its all just very strange and fun. Like a little uncanny slice of life. I guess part of that depends on my NOT being Indian, but I dunno, that's my take.
