| <Chris> | i got a pressure cooker |
| <Chris> | did i tell you? |
| <Chris> | i cooked beans in fucking 15 minutes! |
| <Me> | wow :) |
| <Chris> | it's like i just had my own personal bean revolution |
| <Me> | that's pretty crazy. i don't know if i'd feel safe with something that powerful in my home |
| <Me> | it'd be like owning an assault rifle |
| <Chris> | yeah, i mean, the thing has the potential to explode, blasting 400 degree steam every what way, along with any other food matter inside and bits of metal! |
| <Chris> | have you used one? you like bring it up to pressure (15psi or so) and it starts like spouting steam violently out of a little spout, off and on.. then you know it's good, you turn down the heat.. cook for however many minutes, then to release steam fast you put a fork under the valve to lever it up.. and then the steam shoots out for like 2 minutes. you have to step away. |
| <Me> | that sounds scary as fuck :) |
| <Chris> | it sort of is, but once the adrenaline's flowing, you're like in for the ride of your life |
| <Chris> | especially when it leads to eating |
| <Chris> | it's like that guy who pushed that car off the tracks.. he was all amped after that.. mad adrenals |
| <Chris> | if only someone had run up and handed him a taco, he could feel like i did after having cooked these beans two nights ago |
| <Me> | okay, you've sold me! |
