CANCELLED!

My partner and I really like watching old shows from the 90s and early 2000s, like Will and Grace, Frasier, The Nanny, Buffy, Friends, Boston Legal, etc. When we do, we play this game called Cancelled.

The rules are simple: Get a large cup, pint glass, vase, or bucket of alcohol or another beverage of your choosing. Turn on your show. Every time someone says or does something that would get a show, writer, director, producer, actor, or entire franchise cancelled in today’s socio-political landscape, yell “CANCELLED!” and take a swig or a hefty glug.

We are drunk a lot. Kidding; I only drink sometimes. But we do play this daily.


Fallout, You Know Me So Well

Now, if you know me in person, you know that I have the cooking skills of a blind, deaf, child with no tongue. I neither read recipes nor listen to instructions from real people, so I can feed myself extremely basic things: spaghetti, jello, cheese on toast, cereal. I’m fine with this, because I don’t care how they taste. Cooking for other people? No. I don’t want to. That’s a lot of effort, and I would probably end up making someone sick.

I just got a rolling pin as a drop. A rolling pin. So I can beat people to death with a rolling pin? Seems unlikely that I’d kill anyone with a kitchen implement, but it’s in keeping with my own personal life lore, so I’ll bite.

Oh, It’s a legendary drop? That seems like a bit of a stupid waste of a legendary drop. Does it roll fancy patterns on their faces? Does it poison them, so I don’t have to wait for my cooking to do it? Does it set things on fire, like I’ve done to my kitchen before? Does it do double damage, like my cooking that’s boring AND might make you sick? Does it just sit in my cupboard and do nothing?

Wait, what? It actually poisons people? I was kidding. Oh, Bethesda, you troll, I love you. I will probably never use this thing, but I’m definitely going to put it on display. I actually laughed out loud when I saw this thing. Thanks, Bethesda <3

Kale is not a food. It’s something Waitrose stitched together then dyed green to fill the gap in the market between cabbage and moisturiser for people who’ve spent too long on yoga mats.
