In Other News – 12 July 2016

I’m pretty miserable right now. I’ve got a bit of a cold that’s made its way down to my chest, and it’s making me cough like I’ve been smoking off-brand cigarettes all day. Somebody kindly suggested I have a bowl of soup – but if I wanted to drink something I’d have another cup of coffee. Instead, tonight my mind wanders to a pub favourite. Dammit, I want me some bangers and mash.

There’s something magical about a rustic and grainy (but delightfully buttery, perhaps garlic-infused) mashed potato, with two plump grilled pork bangers and some pan fried onions that makes me salivate enough to forget that I’m sick. A good bangers and mash doesn’t need anything other than the sausages and the mash, really; anything else is just gravy.

In Other News: There may be more souls, Arma reaches its Apex, GTA V gets some cunning stunts and a childish spoonerism and Red Dead rides best on the bone.

Here’s the news we didn’t post because we were too busy scouring the neighbourhood for a Clefairy.

      GITS.

      Nothing beats Bangers n Mash for that hearty, feel-good pick-me-upper meal.

          You shouldn’t drink so much flavoured water dude. There’s a reason you’re throwing up your soup.

            So you found one with soup instead 😀

          • Ottokie

            July 12, 2016 at 16:12

            At least with the soup I know what is in it, instead of mystery meat 😛

            PORK bangers. PORK. The same ingredients as bacon. These aren’t viennas, they’re Pork Bangers.

          • Ottokie

            July 12, 2016 at 16:14

            Pork is just as bad xD

            … Are you Jewish or Muslim?

            While I don’t get the insane love for bacon, pork as a meat is yummy.

            Soup is more mysterious.

      sauce – a liquid or semi-liquid substance served with food to add moistness and flavour.

            I’d invite Trevor over, but he’d have to excuse us while we eat as his steak is still being cremated

            You could always just heat up some cardboard instead. He won’t even notice, and in the end, ya’ll get to eat together. 🙂

            I was watching social eating on twitch (I was very board) and this one oke is eating a great looking plate of food but with this super black steak on it. Chat was freaking out about it the entire time xD

            July 12, 2016 at 16:26

            Were you so “board” you watched a guy it a piece of burned wood?
