Nopers. Kraft singles are technically Cheese Food or whatever, but they are the best possible way to make a grilled cheese. It goes:butter, white bread, kraft single, optional ham or bacon, kraft single, white bread, butter. Done. Change any of that, and what you have is a panini, which is perfectly great as well, but it is now a Panini, not a grilled cheese.
I like to add basil leaves and parmesan cheese to my tomato soup, and sometimes I'll add a splash of milk to the regular tomato soup for more of a bisque.
Yep! Dude, there is nothing wrong with starting with a can of something and making it your own :) You can make really good food that way without as much money and waste as starting from scratch. I personally find there is too much basil in anything named with Basil, like Tomato & Basil bisque. Basil is like green peppers - delicious, but overwhelming if you aren't careful. I go nuts with the Oregano though!
I'm still upset that Graham Norton was chased off twitter by Rowling's trolls. She screams about cancel culture, and he gets cancelled. All because he made the sensible suggestion that we listen to professionals and trans people about transgender issues, not public figures.
Full disclosure I did read the op-ed. People were saying that because the writer is white, they should limit themselves to just talking about the white SA's? How does that make any sense at all. Why would this advice be even offered? I get the "wypeepo offering "wisdom"" natural aversion, and if that is how their work comes across they deserve what they get. But if it is a journalist being a journalist or an essayist writing an essay, no one would have tsked that. It happens all the time. This makes no sense. Now I have to read an op-ed I had no intention of reading! Jesus!
There’s a field of lazy journalism out there where every article is titled “Person X said Y and the internet slammed them.” By which the author means, “I found five tweets by blue check marks that were critical of Person X’s comment.”
They really love the verb “slammed,” BTW.
It’s lazy, paint by numbers writing and tells the reader nothing. But it usually gets the clicks and that’s what matters.
In summary and conclusion, the real cancel culture was the friends we made along the way.
And if she had just talked about white people, she’d be accused of ignoring black people. Because how do you write about South Africa and not talk about the the majority of the people living there?
Maher never got over ABC cancelling his TV show, and he sees every slight, like people's reactions to his fat jokes, as a continuation of this pattern of persecution.
Pesto on a grilled cheese sammich is best grilled cheese sammich. Fight me (after I finish this last bite…)

WE all know it is not a real grilled cheese unless it is a Grilled Cheesus.

Yes
I LOL’d at the grilled cheese Twitter analogy! I love this article, you’re a superb writer.
He’s segued into an ‘elder statesman’, pretty effectively. He stepped away, strategically.
Wait. Are you saying it feels like everyone's ganging up on you because everyone shares a similar opinion on a particular subject, i.e. a majority?
Mind blown. (There's probably an emoji, but I fear it may be too late to go down that road.)
Red states to pass draconian laws restricting the preparation and consumption of grilled cheese sandwiches in 3... 2... 1...

It's amazing the things that sound hilarious in your head that fall flat out in the real world. I think it's the acoustics.
