1. Not big on steak
I prefer seafood, chicken, or pork

2. Just knock its horns off, wipe its nasty ass, and chunk it on my plate.

3. Rare to med
I do have a friend who likes it very rare. I usually interject that she wants the chef to simply tell it a story about a fire he/she once saw.

4. Well don't yell at it
Don't want to get it stressed (not that ending up on my plate isn't stressful enough :) )

I like to say "Just walk up to the cow and explain that there is such thing as fire. Not that they need worry themselves about it."

5. I went Rare Plus last weekend at Capitol Grille and it was almost perfect.
I'd never heard of Rare Plus before.

Big bone-in ribeye. Delicious.

6. I like mine still mooing.
I used to say that, meaning "bloody as hell".

Now I say it, meaning "I'm a vegetarian".

It works both ways. :-)

24. OK. I feel a little bit guilty.
I only posted that to see how long it would take you to reply. Yes, you could call that "trolling", and you'd be correct. I'm sorry.

You doing OK? Life is good and everything? <---not trolling. Just asking.

27. Me...specifically? I'm...I'm touched.
It's trolling, but it's not the same kind of trolling I don't think.

Life? Meh, take the good with the bad, you know? You?

28. I'm good, brah.
Just celebrated my (our) one year anniversary. Lovin' it.

And don't worry; The good always outweighs the bad eventually. I know that sounds like a platitude, but I really think it's true.

Sorry again about trolling. It just seemed kind of funny at the time. I was going to post a snarky reply, but I'm just not feeling snarky tonight. I hope you're not disappointed. I'm just kind of done with arguing right now. I can't change anyone's mind by barking at them or being an insulting shithead (Who? Me??!?...hahahaha!), so I think I'll just chill out and enjoy everyone's company.

Peace.

18. I have a theory on how people order their steaks
the sharper your cuspids (eyeteeth) the more likely you like your meat rare



if your smile is flat, you'll not like steak or prefer it well done

19. Well, back when I went barhopping I'd check out the meat section...
The price was too high.

20. If you do your medium well right...
It still has flavor, there should be a line of pink in it. And my medium wells are awesome.

26. I vote for rare, but if it is a well-marbled steak
you have to go medium rare to really appreciate the flavor.
