Hurricane Daveosaurus

I'm still chuckling at Shame Jones' attempt to do a racism and how badly it's backfiring on him. As far as racisms go, it is (possibly quite appropriately) the weakest of weak sauce.

Butter chicken is (famously) very mild, basically just chicken stewed in cream and coloured with turmeric. There is - NOTHING - scary about it. It's a very nice meal, but hot and/or spicy it ain't. If there was a literal tsunami of butter chicken on the horizon I'd be heading out to the beach with as many clean bowls, buckets and pots as I could find.

A few years back there was an almost-chemist woo shop between my work and the closest car park. For a while, out in front of it were big displays of Super Good-For-You stuff: turmeric and apple cider vinegar. I figured out quickly that I could duplicate the (supposed) effects much more cheaply with a curry and a bottle of cider and get a decent meal as well as the Super Health Benefits.

Tomorrow night is specials night at my local curry place and I might just vote with my feet. Might get a balti. Might get a bhuna. Might get a rogan josh. Might make a nod to my Scottish heritage and get a tikka masala. And hopefully none of Shame Jones' little shitbags will try to make trouble while normal people are queueing up for normal dinners.
