Where is the Random Thread of Randomness stuff that doesn't belong in other threads thread?

I got rid of Hulu after snl moved to peaCOCK.
I will have to see if I can stream meTV?
 
It's an over the air subchannel, so if you have a TV you can connect a set of rabbit ears to and live in a metro area you can probably get it that way. I thought they had a free online stream going as well, but I'm not seeing it.
 
Thx 4 the info

There isn't tv or radio where I am surprisingly. So everything is done online, we have that at least.
 
 
IMO, Wonder Woman hasn't held up particularly well. I remember enjoying it, despite the choice to put it in WWI instead of WWII, but I was killing some time before bed last night and watched one of those ...reacts videos for it and was completely underwhelmed. I think it was appreciated when it came out because the bar was so fucking low for DC movies that it just had to not completely suck to be enjoyable.
 
So apparently boiled peanuts are a thing. And chestnuts are a pain in the ass. I'll spare you all the vagaries of this saga, but the bottom line is that if you roast them too soon after picking they have so much moisture in them that they get moldy if you don't eat them right away. And if you roast them too long after picking, by the time they've fully cooled off they're too hard to eat. So I've hit upon putting a handful in a ramekin, covering them with water, and nuking them for a minute. It softens them up enough to be edible (I should mention that I also soak them in water while I'm prepping them for roasting).

So, while we have the wonderful Mel Torme/Nat "King" Cole Christmas song, I'm thinking boiled chestnuts is the way to go. (And apparently boiled chestnuts are a thing too.)
 
I am experimenting with TLT. I have long been to fat and old to eat bacon and last year I reluctantly dropped ham. Even more reluctantly dropping/radically cutting back alcohol has turned out to be the key (but that's another story) so last time I went shopping I picked up one of them frozen boneless turkey breast loaves to make turkey sammiches. First one was my standard lunch sammich--bread, brown mustard, lettuce, meat, onion, cheese (Swiss), and (in this case) tomato. It was fine but I ran out of mustard. So the next day it occurred to me to do a "TLT" and it was surprisingly good. You really don't miss the onion and the cheese. But I realized it wasn't 100% proper--I'd used cold turkey and hadn't toasted the bread. So today I tried toasting the bread and throwing the meat on the griddle for a bit. Gotta say I didn't think it was as good. So now I've got to try grilled meat on bread and cold meat on toast. Hell, and maybe variations of toast, grilled turkey, cheese, and onions. Culinary science is fun.

Speaking of which, I do a dish based on a recipe of Mom's, with pork chops in a mushroom sauce with peas and a baked potato. When I was done I still had ample mushroom sauce left over--as well as extra potatoes. The frozen turkey loaf came with a bag of frozen gravy mix so I nuked and cut up a few small potatoes and then dumped them and a slice or two of onions into the mushroom sauce, along with the bag of turkey gravy and nuked it a bit more. Oh, and threw in a few cubes of turkey breast for good measure. It was pretty tasty.
 
Y'ever out driving and get stuck behind someone so oblivious to their surroundings that you wonder how they're still alive? That was me this morning. Lady in front of me was just . . . absent. No awareness of the stoplight turning green, no turn signals, stopped in the middle of the road to decide if she really wanted to go straight or right . . . argh. It's enough to make you want to commit horrible crimes.

I have been in a car with someone oblivious-its annoying.
Its usually when we are still in the neighborhood streets-my sister will stop and access maps or something on her phone and I'm like, "There is someone behind you" "They can go around" she says, "Well then wave your arm out the window then"
Like wtf its so cringy to sit in the passenger seat when this is happening.
 
I like to check my wallet for my credit card while driving and make sure I didn't leave it behind at the last place I used it. My friends and family without a car reluctantly ride in my car.
 
I just had some asshole ask me if there was a Survivor season 50 watch party going on in town. Who the fuck watches that shit, or cares?
