A Republic, If You Can Keep It

I like how you get the ass ends of a couple of hunks of zucchini and yellow squash and two kinds of mashed potatoes, or something, along with two kinds of gravy, or something.

I’m pretty sure that’s some sort of weirdass chicken on the right. Not sure I’ve seen beef and chicken on the same plate outside of a bbq joint or buffet.

I do love that they plated the cooked lemon along with the veggies.

I assumed the white lump on the right was a criminally unseasoned hunk of cauliflower.

Fish?

I thought scallop

I wondered about that, too, but if that’s a scallop, that piece of beef must be the size of a quarter.

Maybe we’re missing the ā€œbigā€ picture. What if those are baby carrots…

Ain’t never seen no trapezoidal scallop

Looks to be a piece of cod next to a ā€œfilletā€ā€¦ one has hormel packet gravy and the other just finished a porn shoot.

That’d be one fucked up scallop

It looks like a plug of cabbage.

I got invited to a banquet at MMP back when, I don’t remember how or why, but it was just prior to the start of a season during the tenure of Miguel Tejada and Carlos Lee and I remember that because I spent most of my time hanging out with them, but the point is the food looked exactly like that. I didn’t fucking touch it, but I looked over at Berkman’s table and he was cleaning his plate.

I’m also laughing now because I remember that around that same time Drayton was declaring it a ā€˜tradition’ that fans couldn’t bring food into the park. What a stupid fucking turd that guy was, just an over inflated carnival barker. And what a favor he did all of us by selling the team. Maybe one day his idiot son can buy the Mets.

A mere 5 months in and we’re at the ass-butter stage.

We’re one fuck up away from having our beans above our frank.

An unhinged missive from Dear Leader is a holiday tradition that I hope ends soon.

He certainly has his finger on the pulse of what Memorial Day means.

Very stable genius.

I first came across The List back in 2020 during Covid. I’ve made it a point to reread it every Memorial Day since then. Reckon it’s the least I can do.
