So weird, maybe it's just the ones I know. I'm probably stereotyping them!

I think it's just how boomers were raised. I'm middle-aged and I don't wash chicken, but my boomer mom is horrified at the thought. She came for a visit and made sure I washed the chicken before I cooked with it. 🙄

I was curious so i just checked. Assuming the drink is water and there's no dipping sauce or sauces added to the burger, it comes to 760 calories (macros are 44g fat, 63g carbs, 31g protein). That's definitely more than half of my daily calories, but I'm a middle-aged 5'0" lady. Still, that's a huge amount of fat, and surprisingly little protein!

They'd have to prove there was a plan.

Haha we were all obnoxious young punks at one time. Probably why I love Authority Song so much.

I'm glad you like the rec!

He's always had a big noggin.

Yeah they're both in their early to mid 70s now. Both had music out in the '80s & '90s, and both embraced a blue collar vibe, albeit in different ways.

My favorite Mellencamp song is Authority Song

It's Mellencamp

Man I'd be interested to hear about that. Any interesting insights?

This movie sticks with me. Such a brutal, dark, nasty movie, and it made me realize Colin Ferrell had actual acting talent. I'd never seen him in anything before and had this impression that he was just a pretty boy, kinda like McConaughey used to be.

Like, I completely get why Colm wanted to cut Pádriac off, he was so dull. But he was also so open-hearted, and so I empathized with both characters.

When Pádraic follows the trail of fingers... you know the scene I mean. I lost it, just fucking bawled my eyes out. That movie pulled no punches. It was amazing but I never want to watch it again.
