A flaccid weenie I be, thanks to our wonderful dickbag government fucking me over then dragging their feet to make it right.

I remember someone having a button or something for the Campus Crusade for Chthulu. It was, Why Choose the Lesser of Two Evils? And on that happy note...

Edit: you were supposed to vote for the C monster.

I had that exact argument with 2 of my friends the other day.
It does absolutely no good to try and argue with them!

A new Popeyes fast food joint will be soon opening in town.
Do not think I will go there as they seem to be violent places.
Stabbings, body slamming old women, fights, etc

Popeyes is my favorite of all the fried chickens... they have a really good fried shrimp poboy also. Not quite as good as good as the poboy shops, but definitely satisfying for a NOLA boy out of water.
I havent had that fried chicken sandwich that people are killing for yet though.
Get yourself the 2 piece with red beans and thank me later.

Their chicken isn’t half bad, though. But the only one sorta near us isn’t in a great neighborhood! But are you being ironic, Crom?

I am not sure. there have recently been stabbings, fights and an employee body slamming a 55 yr old woman and breaking bones of Popeyes double charging the woman for her meal. Lawyers lining up on that one.

Went by the one in town today and it was open and full up. Kept on driving.

I'm still waiting for someone to open up a FL style nutria/coypu/coipo fast food joint. Know they make up nutria gumbo in LA as well. Had some that was really yummy once in a place named Hell, LA. Please don't ask me how I got to Hell, LA. It's one of those very small towns that pops out of a swamp, or maybe is part of a swamp. Hard to put it on any chart and I don't think even GPS would help.

My point is nutria gumbo can be extremely yummy, and I think we need some kind of fast food joint selling nutria food. If you're queasy stomached it might be best to not research what nutria happens to be. Can tell you though nutria grilled up tastes like chicken. Add it in with legally hunted gator on a kebab and you've a really good appetizer, or even good meal.

And if you do figure out what it is, people been eating it all through history and in all walks of life. Better us eat it than be eaten.

The one near me is in a lower income neighborhood and we get looks if we go in. Not that I look shiny or rich, it’s just we don’t belong there.

I haven’t watched TV or listened to the news in ages. I didn’t hear about this. Thanks for telling me. You can tell me what you read in the Telegraph and I’ll tell you what I read in the Guardian.

I couldn’t help thinking that nutria gumbo is really soylent green, bro. Everything tastes like chicken. Ask Mouse in the Matrix-even Tasty Wheat. :giggle:

Sorry! I couldn’t resist.

Always have trouble with this myself. Be out and roaming around, someone comes over, "you don't belong here." I smile, nod and go back to what I'm doing like I fit right in. It helps if you have a clipboard and pencil/pen handy.

That "disguise" can get you in anywhere. Walk in like you know all about the place, look around, every now and then maybe scribble something on a sheet of paper. Nobody is going to stop you.

They'll figure you're some kind of internal affairs auditor, quality control, or just one of the higher up corporate mid manger types. It also works for military bases, nuclear power plants, biological storage depots and all kinds of lovely places we like to believe don't exist.

You can tell me what you read in the Telegraph and I’ll tell you what I read in the Guardian.

I'll tell you what I read in the Internet, that is if it's interesting enough. So far the word going around the world is unity. People are waking up to a lot of evil and coming together. Solidarity is one idea which will not die, be dissuaded, who's time has arrived. As Victor Hugo writes an idea that in its time comes will be unbeatable by any army. And no, I'm not talking about some radicalized form of terrorism. It might be terrorism if you're evil. Because you'll realize goodness is coming to eliminate you.

Isn't Nutria a big rat thing?

Yep, swamp rats. :)

Tonight me & the Mrs, is having beef made Sloppy Joe's. Still got a hankering though for nutria. She swears she'd starve first. I tell her "yep, and that's why you'll die during a zombie apocalypse. don't worry I'll eat you so the zombies don't." Oh you should hear the fussing. *chuckles*

To which I reply, "well you do love me and want me to keep on living, huh?" Then I realize I better sleep that night with one eye open. *chuckles* She quits fussing and goes into her quiet pout and sulking mode. Of course, she also refuses to eat deer, any kind of liver. Forget squirrel, raccoon, rabbit. All this good yummy stuff I grew up on, and a whole garden full of variety of veggies too. No okra, squash, zucchini, leaks, cauliflower, cabbage, radishes for her. More for me. :)

And all this while living in WV, have yet to eat a ramp. She keeps steering me from them.

Nutria is an invasive rodent species. They came to LA via the bulkheads and bildge holds of ships from Japan.
They ordinarily eat reeds and marsh greens. Basically they are killing the marsh; because, the greens are what holds the wetlands together as they float through the bayou. They are vegetarian, and the meat is really good. I've had both Nutria in Gumbo and tacos. Down there we eat whatever has crawled, swam, slithered or flew.. and rock snot(oyster).
If you're in the suburban outskirts of New Orleans you'll see the police shooting the nutria in the canals as sort of a population control effort. Certain areas around the wetlands pay people for shooting them as well. You bring in the hide and they cut you a check.
Ugly little invasive bastards.

Omg, I thought it was a brand name for something! But come to think of it, I remember someone having a nutria coat. I’ve never been to NOLA , though.

May not have all been from Japan. Won't say none come from there but they're the world over with their main home having been South America, tropical climates. They've even taken root in parts of the old U.S.S.R, Russia though. Reckon my frustration at rats can be understood.

Recall a place or two FL that let you check pelts, if memory is any good, think it was fifty pelts per $10. There were stipulations that the pelts could only be so damaged too. That was to keep it honest. "Well, yeah it looks like a rat pelt" versus "hey buddy you're trying to cheat us out of twenty pelts here."

Seen much the same argument when my uncle taught me fox trapping, pelting. If the pelt was too messed up it didn't put on the payout count. Granted we didn't have a large haul of pelts & my uncle taught me a good way to get pelts that sold.

There is an animal feed brand called Nutrina. Not sure what all ingredients it has in it, likely some chicken liver though. *ahem* I used to pull 7 metric tonnes of chicken liver a night working at the poultry plant. It all went to one critter feed company, or another.

Now, with Unilever, AGT(I think it is. The one that claims on PBS "grocery store of the world".), ConAgra in the mix likely one of those has one or more of their subsidiaries grinding out critter feed of one flavor or a few. Given there's only like five, or six big corporations now that run all the foods industries it's not difficult tracking who is doing what. Though a few years back it was still about ten big corporations.

How do I know how much liver I pulled per night? Well downstairs they set Super Gaylord boxes each with a capacity of 1 metric tonne, under the upstairs liver chute. I counted 7 Gaylord boxes per night. That was part of my "job" in doing the liver, to go downstairs to de-bone, check the count and get told okay or I needed to pick up more next night. There was a weekly quota. I would then also "float" on into de-bone for OT, I'd cut wings/legs/breasts or I would go pull breasts/tenders.

And yes, often it was me alone pulling the liver. The supervisors would send floaters and we could get a crew of six doing it, but then it would turn out to just me. The rest got pulled to other work. I kept the pace of six people on a line running over 1,500 birds per hour. It was a required task and yes having taught the machines in the poultry plant how to move fast, I was fast enough, until i started burning out.

I also worked on "live hang" some nights, extra $1 an hour per hour to do that. I worked on "chiller" room re-hang and all the various positions in there, evisceration, de-bone. I could float anywhere but the load out freezer in the poultry plant. I even also scooped offal for the protein trucks. Loaded a yellow bucket of offal to "supposedly" 75 lbs, dumped into the auger to go to the truck under it.

I can tell you some of those buckets weighed twice what they were supposed to weigh. It was just more convenient making fewer loads of that crap. The only ones what would have cared regarding the weight of the bucket was OSHA. I talked with the "doc" USDA guy. He kept OSHA from going down into the pit after I explained to him why we double loaded the bucket.

As far as live hang went, when I was about 15-17 I learned live hanging to the rate of 52 birds both legs in both shackles per minute. There were only two of us live hanging too. We also cleared twenty tractor trailers of chickens each night by 11 PM exactly. We got told we could clock out, or go on into the rest of the plant to float for OT, we had to get cleaned up but that was no hassle. We wore plastic aprons that would get hung in the rehang area, hosed down. Went out got fresh "white" smocks and fresh latex gloves, fresh hair/beard nets, earplugs.

Fast forward another 15 years or so, I go back to trying to do live hang. there's 8-10 guys back there and we each only need to do 12 birds per minute. I couldn't switch off what I'd learned all those years prior. The one other guy that had been back there with me was still there. Me and him showed the others one night how it was done. They stood there completely awe struck because we ran it for an hour. Then, we hollered at them to start doing two by two, keep up with us. They couldn't of course, it was funny but in a bittersweet way. The nightly truck rate had to be dropped to 10 per night.

The nights I did the offal the wife threatened to tie me to the roof of the car to get us home. Unfortunately, no, none of this bragging or exaggerating. Would that it were so. Then, I also rebuilt roughly 25 250 lb wooden bins for transporting apples daily. Used to throw these bins around like rag dolls, but I'm not particularly "built" as it were, more like "wiry" and know about momentum/leverage. Sometimes the air powered nail gun worked, most often I used a hammer and loose nails.

Moral: Don't let anyone tell you America doesn't have a surplus of chicken to eat. We got that and then some what is shipped all over the world, Asia, Saudi Arabia, Middle East, Africa, Europe, Russia. In Asia they like buying chicken feet for soups and stews, stock also they would take other portions if we in America didn't discard them. I'll be polite here and leave that to one's imagination.

Now I know more about chicken than I ever wanted to. Factory farming turns me off, but I realize the need for it. The population is too large and people eat much more meat than they did in say the 1880’s.
I just read something about peak oil and culture reverting to 1880’s tech on Patheos Pagan. (Slick transition, huh? Lol) Written by a Druid dude from AODA. Think I have the initials right, his name is John Michael Greer, you might like his stuff btw.

So glad you’re okay! :hug:

I’ve learned to do the acting like you belong thing, except sometimes people judge you by color, and it’s a bit hard to fake that. Not to be too literal...but I used to send the hubs in when we stopped there. He bops into places with his devil may care charm better than I do! Lol
