@achewood I once had the idea that, if only for a moment each night, everyone in the world was asleep at the same time. It made the world manageable.

I'm just a huge fan of the absurd humour of... projecting human racial and national politics onto housecats and stuffed animals.

It's the layer under the surface gags that holds it up, not unlike in a french onion soup. Sure, the melty bread-cheese is really the reason you're there but, if not for the soup beneath, we'd just be eating crazy bread out of a fancy bowl.

I am wondering: is there some not-gross way to eat that bread cheese? Because it all sticks together, and it's so tasty, but it's hanging out of my mouth, and I try to cut it but it just stretches, and oh god why is everyone laughing I'm just trying to eat the goddamn soup why are french people such assholes about making food goddamit

Im pretty sure you're suppposed to break the bread up like croutons and eat it with the soup. Or that's how i always have done it and no one really laughs at me too much.

Yeah, what kind of super hard/rubber-y cheese are you being served? 

I've never been served French onion soup where the cheese infused bread was so hard as to not be conquered by the side of the spoon, or a knife if I'm feeling especially jaunty. 

My problem with French onion soup is the way the cheese traps in the heat.  I mean, I've been served French onion soup where the under-lying liquid is of such a temperature that it should basically be vapor.  It's, like, scientifically impossible for the soup part to be as hot as it is and still be liquid, but somehow, by magical cheese magic, it remains liquid.  Sure, being sensible and not confined to a nut house where sharp spoons or basic butter knives are banned (as I assume is the case with theinev) I hack that cheese bread up, but the tantalizing cheesy-ness and the savory aroma make it hard to resist immediately tasting a spoon full, and then I've burned my tongue and ruined the rest of the meal because I can't taste anything. 

To summarize: my problem is excessive heat + lack or restaint. 

Also, cartoon cats.

Still not in India!

The hell? Why do you associate Burma and India in such a synonymous way? I know I'm kind of being a dick but if August had said 'USA' you wouldn't go 'Still not in Canada!' Christ, at least they share a large border, whereas the mighty country of Bangladesh puts rather considerable distance between pretty much all of India and Burma, so there's even less in common! As I'm writing this I'm telling myself off for getting so fuck*ng pedantic about something so small, and I know you didn't mean it like that, V. Think of this as a general rant which is definitely not directed at you, because I know you're a decent person. You know what, have a can, 'cause I'm being such a bastard.

If you scroll down you'll see I posted in that thread; hell, it seems barely weeks ago. I understood the context of what V-Adore said, I was just confused as to why mentioning Burma would invoke the 'No India yet' reaction. Of course, now that I've calmed down a little it makes more sense. That's pretty crap of me.
