I totally get the forgot lunch or easiness like pre-cut fruit or instant potatoes or precooked/seasoned meats. What I don't get is paying extra for hardboiled eggs, paying the cost of a pound of bacon for 2 slices on your burger, paying higher prices for Kool-aid in cans or bottles, paying $2-4 more for reserving seats at a movie because you can't manage to get there in time to spend a few minutes in line, paying to have your lawn done professionally when it is a tiny patch of grass barely large enough for your dog to rub his butt on and all the other craziness.

Step 6, toss the lot in the garbage, drive to Trader Joes, and buy a pack of peeled boiled eggs. JK don't do that. It's quite expensive per egg. And yet there are folks that willingly spend (waste) unnecessary money just for the sake of convenience/laziness.

Why is Peacemaker a villain now? In the comics didn't they have him becoming mentally unstable and a bit psycho? Going more full on Punisher style in becoming uncontrollable?

I can’t make consistent boiled eggs to save my life. I end up obliterating the egg while peeling the shell half the time. You are overcooking. Ever heard of using a little invention called an egg timer? 😁

Knowing Hiddleston's skills and what we saw him do with Loki in movies, you have to imagine and anticipate what he delivers with the full storyline focus and extra time on screen.

I just finished watching Boogiepop Phantom for the 2nd time, and even though I like it a lot I still have little idea what I watched... Any fans? Right there with you on trying to wrap my head around Boogie Pop Phantom. 1st time around I watched over a month an episode at a time every few days. Next time thinking binge watch all in a day is maybe it seeps into my brain cells so I come away with any idea of what I just saw.

Brooklyn Line, Terminus Cosmos part 2 continuing the story is just as sublime, beautiful and artistically splendid. Mexieres is giving vivid, inventive life to Christin's creative writing. This book has has quickly jumped to a favorite spot for me along with the series as a whole. The intertwining story with Laureline and Val on solo missions which connect in the end is delightful. We find Valerian making his usual dumb mistake with a beautiful woman (an enemy agent of course) which irritates Laureline to no end, but she doesn't explode in frustration but let's her anger guide her, so much as becoming more determined and in charge of herself and Val. Watta woman!
Cannot yell of the delight I find in Meziere's incredible line work. The layout, the faces, the landscape, the aliens all have a depth of richness and character you don't see from many artists. What began as cartoonish over the top humorously drawn is now nuanced, detailed and captivating. This is artwork you can lose yourself in, lost for a day simply poeing over each panel to find new things which draw your eye and attention. Stupendous!
Christin has to be complimented for creating such wondrous characters while placing them into unique instances. Moments in time and space which demands you MUST go back and read it again for fully absorbing all there is.
Again, WOW. Young me might have enjoyed this but adult me LOVES it.

I think my preference for Spaghetti comes from seldom having Lasagna when growing up. For a poor family of 5 Spaghetti was a meal that feed more and could be stretched out with adding extra pasta or sauce and adding to it when left over. It was quick, easy and filling where Lasagna took more time and didn't last as long. Plus, whenever we ate lasagna if visiting family it never seemed to be cooked thoroughly or properly.
