As a man who can't pass up a veggie tray, but really needs to be a certain mood for non-warm Krispy Kreme donuts, I'd have loved little more than to have been the butt of this joke.

Now, now; let's not be rash. A warm Krispy Kreme donut is about as close as one can get to an orgasm without exposing one's genitals to very specific stimuli. The evidence is irrefutable; just look at these very Irish people's knees buckle under the weight of the glory of their first KK donuts.

Ugh, no Krispy Kreme is the lowest tier of donuts. So low I would rather not have a donut.
I mean, swap out one of the broccoli with some smoked meat and on celery with some cubed cheese and I’d be pretty content with this.
Aw, man, I'm already fighting Worgen on Kripy Kremes, now I gotta fight you on raw brocoli?

My opinion is objectively correct. Krispy Kreme are overly fried and bland. You want a good donut, you want Voodoo or River City or even Dunken.
You want good broccoli, you get some good olive oil and balsamic and mix in some oregano, garlic powder, and rosemary and bake it at 425 for 18 min. That's how you do broccoli.
For me, the only proper use of broccoli is for compost. Nothing that bitter should ever be considered food. I do not know how the forces of darkness tricked otherwise decent human beings into thinking broccoli was edible, but such an act of evil can never be forgotten or forgiven.
Of course, this is just my opinion, though my taste buds have verified the matter and proven it to be a scientific fact.

The bitterness is inherent to the plant. There is no known means of cooking it that removes the bitterness for me. It is obviously the evil leeching out of the hell-plant.
To be slightly serious for a moment, it is entirely possible that my reaction is genetic. I know several people who have the recessive gene that makes cilantro taste like soap to them. Might be something similar for me.
Raw broccoli is a bit too tough for my taste buds. Unless you’re talking broccolini which is smaller and tastes sweeter.
Ugh. Missus, after 30 years of marriage, tells me, the primary shopper and cook, that she hates garlic. She might as well have told me she hates salt. Your recipe sounds awesome.

Weird. But one of the awesome things about the recipe is that it works great with all kinds of seasoning. Swap the garlic for turmeric. Put in some red pepper flakes or siracha powder for some heat. It takes all kinds of spices really well. Really I've only found that depending on the flavors of the balsamic, some of them can just get lost when its cooked, but some of them are amazing. I tend to use fancy olive oil and balsamic with flavors, but it works great with just normal stuff too.
They re-invented the wheel! The closest I've come to being productive while blackout drunk was buying and assembling a vacuum cleaner, none of which I remember.

I know I talked a lot of shit about the eclipse and all the hype surrounding it, but it WAS pretty fucking cool. Your could see the stars and everything. I still say it was insane for anyone to have travelled any significant distance or spend a substantial amount of money to see 4 minutes of spectacle (as several thousands of people did,) but it WAS pretty amazing. Glad I got to see it.
