I hope this link is workable. It was on a facebook page and I couldn't figure out how to download and then upload the video.

It might better be entitled "food aftereffects funnies." Or perhaps I should have posted it in Food in the Pandemic.

This is hilarious!    Husband has an ongoing war with mice who miraculously snatch the acorns, chunks of fruit, walnuts, peanut buttered crackers, you name it, from traps.    He even WIRES down the lures.    We only catch the dimwits and clumsy.

A former/sometime colleague mentioned on LinkedIn that she'd made risotto for supper, but her youngster'd had a minor meltdown over the idea and was adamantly opposed to even trying it.

 

When she brought him his bowl, he glared at it suspiciously. "What's this?" he demanded.

 

"You said you didn't want risotto," she told him, "so I just made you some cheesy rice."

 

Said "cheesy rice" was devoured quite happily. :P

Apple works in mysterious ways. (I did notice that the patent was abandoned.)

"There is no sincerer love than the love of food."  -George Bernard Shaw, Man and Superman, Act 1

 

"Imagine all the food you have eaten in your life and consider that you are simply some of that food, rearranged."  -Max Tegmark, physicist

 

Gene Weingarten, writing in the Washington Post about online news stories and the accompanying readers' comments: "I basically like 'comments,' though they can seem a little jarring: spit-flecked rants that are appended to a product that at least tries for a measure of objectivity and dignity. It's as though when you order a sirloin steak, it comes with a side of maggots."

 

Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power.  -Robert G. Ingersoll, lawyer and orator

 

Patriotism is often an arbitrary veneration of real estate above principles. -George Jean Nathan, author and editor

 

A sense of humor is a measurement of the extent to which you realize that we are trapped in a world almost totally devoid of reason. Laughter is how we express the anxiety we feel at this knowledge.

-Dave Barry, humorist
