    But did you get it the ultra-(not)secret shake shack way that is probably a thing?

    Me and the wife used to literally live on top of one (big complex) so it was a frequent dining last resort.

    I feel like it was a rarity we ended up paying less than 35-40 for the two of us.

    double culvers burger is 5.69

    legitimately half of what a double shake shack burger costs and far far better

    I really like Shake Shack. I realy like Culver's. They are both capable of serving terrible burgers.

    I was certainly still getting high. I personally think weed quality is at its ceiling, I'm not sure how much better it can get.

    I'm sure I'll get high with friends again, but as far as being an everyday toker, I think (hope?) those days are done.

    i recall reading that rick was the beloved child growing up and his parents were very supportive of his cooking and culinary exploration

    whereas skip felt ostracized for being the "jock" despite being the very successful athlete

    for whoever wants to make their own conclusion, skip romanticizes some of it obviously but this seems pretty honest as it paints him in a bad light

    Rick: Wow thanks dad!!
    Skip: Well is he really that guy? Seriously, In the last 2 minutes of doing his chores, he left a dirty spot on 2 plates. In all my years of covering chores, I’ve never seen anything like it.Chosen one turns into the frozen one.

    rick has that bourdain-esque sensibility where you don't just go somewhere foreign and say whether you like the food or not. i can't imagine skip having that. skip is also 71 and wears a gold chain

    Oddly that is pretty much it from a known person standpoint. If I had to put more on it, it would be my mom, grandma, and great grandma.

    My great great grandma was of Russian & German heritage and I was heavily influenced by the food I had at her house and watched/helped her make. Lots of pickled dishes, confit, raw and/or cured meats, and mousses/molds.

    My grandmother ran one of the best classic american diner/comfort food kitchens I ever ate at in a small podunk town in oklahoma. So anything fried, griddled, or roasted I was able to watch happen over and over again.

    And then my mom, who applied a combination of those things to our house on a daily basis. Lots of pickling and making quality meals out of what was available.

    I have a handful of cookbooks that I occasionally look at for inspiration and usually decide what I want to make and then look online for something similar to check my thought process against.

    the part where he says his dad got up at 4 am every day to cook the ribs and can’t help himself from saying that 4 doesn’t actually sound that early to him is classic Skip. It does appear to put his asshole/attention seeking needs into perspective.

    Ok yeah there’s some “flair” of his in the storytelling for sure. But I just don’t think there’s any merit to the idea that children of a broken home are supposed to “save” their siblings.
