That means you've been accepted as a member.

Hmm...it does feel rather warm and fuzzy around here, amidst all the rampant absurdity, sarcasm and intermixing's of both verbal beatings and momentary empathetic embraces.

It took making a horrendous typo on a topic title, going from the intended "choking out" to "chocking out" to "crockpotting!" to spark this bizarre topic and you're saying I'm now accepted into the fold????

No no. You forgot to choke your chicken in the crockpot. Not an accepted member yet until you complete the hazing process of crockpot chicken choking.
 
I will share my own crockpotting experience. I've periodically smelled the scents of slow-cooking meats and veggies from the crockpot where (my fav, especially as the rains and cold return) beef stew is forming and thought to my self: I can do that!

So, I did. I bought a big slab of prime rib and put it in the crockpot (commandeering it away from the little lady) and chopped up potatoes, carrots, onions, garlic.....then doused it with water and seasonings. I didn't really want to use a broth mix, so I just let it stew in its own juices all day.

That beef ended up falling apart gloriously when I finally forked it around in circles in that hot, oval-shaped pot. And the taste was so good, I was very pleased.

I liked how I didn't really have to do anything, I could just dump it all in a container and walk away and the magic would happen on its own. Nice to see it go from raw to rapturously roasted all on its own.

I have only crockpotted once, though. I should do it again.
 
For hands off cooking I also have Instant Pot. Two, actually. It can pressure cook, slow cook, act as ordinary pot, also make yogurt. Yesterday I put beans in Instant Pot first thing in the morning, by the time I was showered and dressed the beans were cooked.
 
Edit: Choking!! Why can't typos be fixed in the title??

Anyway, I can't stop laughing and I started choking on this succulent thigh. According to John Hollinger of the top notch (*cough* fuck that noise, man *cough*) institution that is The Athletic, the Blazers are predicted to be 2nd worst in the West with 31 wins.

Oh reeeeeeally????? You fucking morons! We are going to be worse than Utah and NO and....oh just forget it. Braindead masterbeat/bate reporters.

We will better than last year.

To return to the real topic purpose...I am staying hear Mt. Hood in a great vacation cabin and I watched the full Sac preseason game yesterday on my laptop with the wife and wow!!

I was telling her how I really feel for Hansen with what he's going through. New country, new language, new team, new league, new type of basketball, new rules...the nerves of going up against the stars, new crowd, the noise, the roar, the spotlight he's in. It must be so overwhelming.

Hoping he will adjust and adapt and show his true ability. She didn't watch the SL games and I keep telling her she needs to do that. But...we talked about his first preseason game and hoping he would be able to put things together here and then saw his struggling play in the first half. Oh no, we thought. Poor guy. And then:

The 2nd half hits and he comes in. Wow!!!!

My wife was yelling and cheering for him so loud and it just melted me.

Hansen scored 16 points in 17 minutes and 14 of those came in 5 MINUTES of play!!! With his blocks and passes and rebounds and 3 pointers. Wow!

We were so happy for him! He rocked it! And what a display of versatility! And in 5 minutes?????

That had to be some sort of record, at least if even for a rookie.

@THE HCP

Do you know?

So exactly where did the "Crockpot" come in? And when did the choking start? So many questions now.

that tells us nothing. You're a woman...showering and dressing can take several hours

@kjironman1

You were probably joking around, but I don't know anymore.

This topic got so horribly and hilariously? fucked with such a mindless and misfortunate typo. I was just trying to say I was laughing so hard I started choking out over the lowball prediction from Hollinger, but it was typoed to "chocking out"and then instead of fixing that, SLYPOKERDOG MADE IT SAY CROCKPOTTING!!! HAHA, some epic trolling there.

There's a woman in these forums???? I never would have guessed from the usernames, demeanors and just the air here in the forum. I'll have to moderate my humor and posting content from now on.
 
Not gonna lie, my idea of purgatory does look a lot like the Nordstrom’s fitting room seating area. Say what you want, but I lived through it - and it was real. Really excruciating… It’s like all they have on TV is a loop of the most unfortunate news events. Every 30 days you hear “I’ll be out in a moment”, 30 days later “Hold on I’m just trying on one more pair of pants”. Next thing you know your entire life has passed you by. You glance up and see the same news playing on the television “I’ll be out soon”… And as you wither away and die, you realize that this sofa you are sitting on is the only thing keeping you from falling to the earth and being vacuumed into a great abyss.

Sexist bullshit. 30 minutes. Includes putting in contact lenses.
Hahaha. Not a chance on your life can my wife be ready start to finish and out the door in 30 mins. Now me I can do it in 10 mins. You can start her 1 1/2 hours before you need to get moving an I will be in the car with the enigma on waiting.

This is not Sexist Bullshit. This is just the way it is and I guarantee you I’m not alone on this.

I had an experience like that recently, but it was actually not excruciating---or maybe it was, but in a different way.

The little wife was trying on swimsuits and other things in preparation for an upcoming trip to Maui, as I had told her I wanted to take her on a shopping spree. I think the time goes by pretty nicely, if not quickly, when they have a bikini bod; let the show continue!!!!!!

As far as the women-folk getting ready to go out, I think that varies on the person. Some have a lot of work to do to get presentable either in their own mind or to anyone else. Some have very little to do to look great. Natural beauty or they are just fast af. Hair and make-up can eat up a frick-ton of time. Some like to change in and out of 50 different outfits or earrings. Haha.

Still funny to call it out as such!
