No joke at all. Try some plain oatmeal, an egg, onion, Garlic (or powder) and perhaps any other spices you fancy next time.

Speaking of food. I think I'm gonna give that paleolithic diet another try. Tried it a few years ago but failed. Have changed a few things in my lifestyle* and learned a few things since then that might help me succeed this time... ^^

* Stopped smoking weed about 2 months ago. Smoking weed + low carb diet = recipe for disaster... lol

That's a meatball man, not a hamburger.

But I'm being really critical here. I'm a hamburger purist, and I agree with Hobie that adding ingredients to add flavor with a decent binding agent can make a great burger, but the best burger is one with great beef.

If I lived in a perfect world, all burgers would be cut, then ground from the chuck end of the rib eye. And just to add, if you plan on cooking a rib roast, ask your butcher for a cut from the chuck end; much more marbled.


But then again Hobie brings a great realization: all burgers are usually great.

Get a second TV or a VERY elaborate mirror system.
Maybe now Nintendo will acknowledge Metroid has a fanbase?

I was going to say that sounded more like meatloaf than a hamburger, not that there's anything wrong with that though. I like to mold my meatloaf into a patty and then grill it and serve it opened faced topped with mashed potatos.


On a related note, I do like to add oatmeal to my pancake batter.

That's too bad that it looks like the game probably ended up getting rained out on you...
