Show #487: I Think I See a Demon on Your Head
  • Bell peppers? Don't you mean capsicums, does that word have too many syllables for america?
  • Bell-pe-ppers and cap-si-cums, same amount.
  • But you refer to them as peppers too, I'm sorry but isn't pepper a spice not a vegetable?!

    Also meat pies are a regular staple in the Australian diet, much like the sausage roll (pigs in a blanket in america, I think). Usually eaten with tomato sauce and beer. Peas on the other hand are not authentic aussie cuisine.
  • I got The Raid based on TGME recommendation. I was pretty impressed.
  • Do Australians refer to apples as malus domesticana or some shit? Because if they don't your argument re: bell peppers is some bullshit.
  • So referring things to.their scientific name is bullshit... Makes sense, since you guys still use the imperial units of measurement.
  • Yes we do. We use them to send things to fucking Mars and the edge of the solar system. And to put bombs pretty much wherever on Earth we want to.
  • Pie Floater: Meat pie in a pool of mushy peas.

    Get your so called Aussie restaurant to make one of those.

    Don't remind me of this fact.
  • I'm just saying if you mock people for calling things bell peppers, but still use 'apples' or 'oranges' then you're being pretty hypocritical, dude.
  • You're reasoning with Aussies again, Dave. We've been over this.
  • What was the word Dave used when he was talking about the lesbian pocky scene. Something about it not being ikkitousen and then said a word that sounded something like 'derurger'?
  • The best part of the show was how Kagura's new sword was basically a gunblade, and that she gets out of a sword lock with Yomi by shooting it, which ejects the shell into Yomi's face. That was pretty good. Dammit, now I want to make a gif of it.
  • Do they have sausage rolls there? If they do get ready to throw away all your other food.

    Also I don't know what the fuck is up with the peas... it's not an Australian thing that's for sure.

    de rigueur.

    Why do you guys say that a pregnant woman is "Up the Duff?" In America, that's the opposite of how you get a baby. Do Australian babies come out of the butthole?
  • According to wikipedia (so I know it's 150% correct), bell peppers are a single type of capsicum.
  • Everyone is dancing around this, but here's the issue: Codger, you are a jackass.
  • Australian butt babies.
  • As far as I'm aware, that's how redheads are conceived.

    Seriously re. Australian cuisine: peas are in. If we only included food native to our country then it would be Platypus Wombat and Witchety Grubs.
  • Codger said:

    That argument fails because chili peppers are still often called chili peppers in Australia. It's unfortunate that the term "pepper" is used for unrelated types of plant, but that's just how it is. Also, given that capsicum is a term for the entire genus, including various chilies, I'd say that it's better to use a different term for the non-spicy variety.
  • bell peppers?
  • I second the suggestion.
  • I'm pro bell pepper.

    I showed the raid at the base theater and the lady who runs it said it was terrible because it was "subtitled".
  • You did point out that she is stupid and then slapped her, right?
  • Speaking of raisins... I feel similarly about pineapple in a savory application. It makes everything taste like garbage to me. Pizza, stirfry, other weird dishes I can't think of. I will begrudgingly accept it with ham. Other than that.... dessert or alone, pineapple. DESSERT OR ALONE!!!!
  • i not a huge fan of cheese steak, but i love me some french dip, also pocky kissing wanna be sister/lesbians is really hot to me for some reason, oh i know why cause im weird.
  • Pineapple is great in fried rice. I also used it on top of some creole rice that I served with jerk spiced grilled chicken the other week, and that worked out well.

    In Paul's podcast, he said people walked out of a theater because they saw the Muslim protagonist praying.
  • I support pineapple fried rice, but pineapple everything-else-savory is bullshit.
  • I admit I have not tried it in fried rice. I would be willing to try, but dread fills me when someone tells me there is pineapple in something savory.
  • Theres a vietnamese soup that has pinapple as a main ingredient and that shit is so good we used to just call it 'crack soup' the real name is....Can chua cá. Eat some.
  • I will try that for sure. Are you guys ok? I just read about the weather over in your neck o the woods. I hope you're both ok.
  • Oh yeah! I actually had no idea till it was over, im in nh right now so im fine and dave is streaming so it seems like everything is good :D
  • You did point out that she is stupid and then slapped her, right?



    Sadly she's a retired chief and had I followed through on that inevitable and reasonable impulse I'd still be removing a current chief's boot from my ass. Also no more of my recommendations anymore for fear I'll suggest something other than Prometheus which plays every day.
  • Was the weather that bad? I was out in it most of the day, it didn't seem all that special to me.
  • Oh shit. I had no idea, 1 in Queens and 1 in Brooklyn? Daaaamn. That's some crazy shit.
  • Yeah I didn't see shit, aside from some heavy rain in the morning.
  • Glad it didn't really affect ya's. I saw that on my ticker and was like O_O
  • I finally watched merantou on netflix streaming. I thought it was really good, can't wait to see what the Raid is like. I have it on my dvd queue
  • The Raid is an awesome movie, but I understand your feeling icky watching it. My wife was literally screaming for half of the stabbing scenes.
  • Man, I cannot disagree more about the pineapple thing. Having pineapple on pizza was a life affirming experience.
  • Everyone is dancing around this, but here's the issue: Codger, you are a jackass.


    Aaawwh, someone didn't have their weetbix that morning...
  • Man, I cannot disagree more about the pineapple thing. Having pineapple on pizza was a life affirming experience.



    This!
  • I agree with pineapple in savoury dishes being terrible. Now mango, there's a fruit to put on your meats.
  • Yeah slap that meat in between a couple mangos.
