you look just like the back of your head

1. Some dipshit took my username and like fifteen permutations thereof, so I am available at amanderama on that ask me anything site. I don't know about you, but I always hesitate to do these or anon memes because I'm always afraid that I'm going to get a bunch of anon questions like, "Why are you such a drama queen?" and "Are you this big an asshat in real life?" But I shall have faith in humanity. Like Bon Jovi I am…living on a prayer, slippery when wet, wanted: dead or alive and shit.

I want to lay you down in a bed of roses. For tonight, I sleep on a bed of nails.

2. I have something I need to get off my chest. It's been bothering me for a long time, and I just repress it, squash it down and hide it so that I don't have to deal with it. But it's been eating the inside of me for ages, and I just can't go on any longer--

Why the hell do they put those wire handles on Chinese take away boxes? I get that it's handy, but it prevents me from microwaving the box. It used to be that in the past I was so set on microwaving it that I would wiggle the ends and pull the wire out, but then the carton, which is like form Hellraiser-inspired puzzle box construction, literally needs the wire to hold it together. Look man, I don't want to get another dish dirty, plus, I love eating out of those containers. It's awesome and I'm like Cher in Suspect, walking around my house and eating out of the peanut butter jar (thanks for that idea, Cher). PLUS. It's bed for the environment or something. You can't recycle those wires and they're not biodegradable and I waste water and soap and shit dirtying a second dish.

Seriously, someone has to solve this problem. Solve it before I go insane.

3. Every week I make something to practice a skill that I haven't learnt yet, or make something I've never had before. So help me pick next week's adventur (thanks, Sam!).

I will tell you that one of the things I always do with mine is put a meat in there. If you're not a vegetarian, chop up some bacon and fry it, strain out the bacon and set it aside and fry something else in the oil. Then add the bacon in when you combine. It ads some nice flavour.

Bacon makes everything better, you know. It will definitely be an exercise in experimentation. My favorite foods are Thai and Indian, but I'm always discouraged when I look at all the ingredients and steps involved, but I've decided just to go for it.
