@Hooroo I make my own Biltong - easy as. I'm told it's addictive. Certainly I can never keep up with requests for more
How do you do it?
I bought this box thing from SA that just has an incandescent light bulb in it and it works a treat but I have a dehydrator that I use for chillies , herbs from the garden, etc and thought that might work as well. Proper "candle" light bulbs are getting difficult to find.
The chopper / slicer thing is great too. Worth investing in.

@Snowy I use a dehydrator I use silverside as a relatively cheap, lean cut. Slice it up, rub it in the DM secret spice mix (AKA whatever I feel like at the time but generally a mix of chilli, cumin, coriander and smoked paprika) and then marinade in thick soy sauce overnight

I cant remember what thread got hijacked by dental war stories, but fuck dental work!!! Just had 2x fillings, one in a too wisdom tooth that the dentist said was so decayed he thought about just ripping it out today. I've just had 3x panadeine forte tablets and now I cant feel my legs, but my fucking jaw is throbbing like a muthafucka!!!
Great. Thanks for that. I've been considering going to a dentist, but I'm shit-scared.
I've got the screw for an implant put in about 14 years ago, for which I never got the actual tooth part put on top, as I left NZ. Just an entire tooth-shaped filling which was supposed to be a place-filler. And haven't seen a dentist since. Now that I'm back, I know I should go get it sorted, along with all the complications that have inevitably arisen, and all the other issues from not having seen a dentist in 14 years.
Maybe I need to source some higher-class drugs before I commit to that. (Plus, build up the savings a bit... ACC should cover the implant, and hopefully direct complications... but I hate to think of what the "extras" will probably cost)So your avatar picture is actually you then?

Well... of course. I assumed everybody's was... Mr internet-connected motorcycle AI.

Why do people presume they can call and attempt to pat a puppy they don't own? It's in training to ignore strangers.

I mean, I could assume you're talking about a dog, but....

Protein bars / snack bars. Why does every manufacturer assume that all people want I something sweet and/or chocolatey? I know a lot of people can't get enough chocolate but I'm not that fussed TBH. Why doesn't anybody make a bar that has something savoury going on?
Not a silly idea. Certainly a gap in the market. Especially for non animal based ones.

Grown women who speak to grown men like they're babies or small children.
Often in retail stores ( chemists especially) and usually on the first greeting.
Annoying high pitched voice. Shrieking terminal inflection
" Heeellllloooo hooowww arrrre youuu toooodaaaayyy"
Fucken annoying bints. Just use a normal fucken voice, you know, the one you use with your bestie
when you piss and moan that no men respect you for who you arrrrre -

I'm the opposite of this - why do dog people assume I want their dog to come over and sniff me, or lick me, or jump up on me? Buy a lead if your dog ignores its training as a puppy. I'm not a an early 20s Asian chick, I don't think your dog is cute.

You might have a point, I've never thought of it from the perspective of men who cannot get laid... (whip cracking sound effect here

It is the GOM thread though.
I agree with @Nepia, people all "but look at my great dog".
