Can't eat at Chapottle. Last time I was there they didn't have the plain white rice. Only learned of the fact after waiting in line for 15 minutes during a busy lunch rush.

I said to the server "Do you know who I am? I'm very important and demand you serve me rice unsullied by the absolute terribleness of the weed you have in the rice laid out before me!"

Some unintelligible response was made through visible trembling bought out by the sheer fear of my indomitable presence.

No attempt was made by the workers now in fear of me. I left in a hurry. Got into the R8 and provided the establishment with two nice black strips on their pavement via German V10 power.

If the Audi R8 is a V10, why didn't they just call it the R10? I bet it's really a V8.

So you're saying it should be the R8+2? I thought Germans were supposed to be good at math?

Well at least the next version is gonna be electric, so maybe then it won't be just an also ran Lamborghini. But then you seem like someone that would try a Lamborghini and say it tastes like Audi.

The Germans are good at assigning letters and numbers as names for vehicles. The rest of the world followed.

All electric supercars are as appealing to me as a mouth full of cilantro.

I've had a really good supply in my back yard all winter and before, growing in several pots. Best thing is it doesn't mind the cool weather and even better, it is quite reluctant to go to seed. It is from seeds off ebay sold as slow to bolt, but it's clearly the weather that does the trick. I just go out there and grab some in a fist and pull, rinse a bit under tap water. I do this virtually daily at dinner time. It really helps a lot of recipes. I have many recipes that call for cilantro. I buy the seeds in bulk too and whir in my blender to obtain powdered coriander, which I've been putting in a DIY Afghan spice seasoning mix.

I dunno. I thought Afghani food was supposed to be kinda bland and relatively free of spice?

Don't get me wrong. Most of the Afghan food I've tried was beyond delicious but never heard of something Afghani that was also spicy.

Man, it's not your fault that you don't like cilantro. And it's not anyone's fault if they like cilantro.

So, just make peace with the fact that cilantro exists, just like there will always be people who love pineapple on their pizza.

Umm ok. I have had Afghan food cooked by Afghans. They have at least five spices in them. And their naan is to die for. There is like 85k Afghans in Canada and they are all in the big metro areas.
