My flist is full of win today

First example: from insidian - Obama wins Iowa!

Second example: from cleverduck - Kung-Fu Election. The gameplay is a little ugh, and the intro is way too long (worth watcing, but too long), but it's surprisingly astute.

Third example: from chaptal -

haggis wings. sheesh...

london pride is nice stuff. there's a scotch egg burger there. i had strongbow on draught in glasgow. very refreshing.

if you're going to try a whisky, try the macallan 12yr. if you don't like that it's not for you.

Damn. You were my last hope for figuring out what Stovies are...

I can safely say that that wasn't what I was thinking of. Although, that does look pretty tasty.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stovies
Stovies is a traditional Scottish dish, similar to the French Pot au Feu. Recipes and ingredients vary widely between regions, and even families, but the dish usually consists of tatties (potatoes) and onions and some form of cold meat (especially sausages or leftover roast.) The potatoes are cooked by stewing with fat stove being the old Scots word for stewing. A regional variation is to serve the stovies with oatcakes.

Sounds good with beer. But then, what doesn't?

I can't believe the fact that I would probably survive a zombie apocalypse doesn't make the top tier of the wins on your friends list. Sheesh.

53% isn't exactly betting odds, if you know what I mean. Now, if you were at, like, 82%, I'd be celebrating your impending survival.

Just... don't come knocking. Me and my 53% will be waiting in silence with a pair of pliers and a blowtorch. I don't have much for distance weapons...

Hey, with the way this administration acted after getting 50%+1 in 2004 or even less in 2000, I figured 53% equals complete and utter zombie annihilation. Plus, I know where they keep the spear guns.

Oh, well by Republican math, you're totally at 'Mission: Accomplished.' :-)

I saw a photo of haggis on my friends page recently. No way in hell I'd try it. DOUBLE no way in hell I'd try haggis wings. *tightly closes mouth*

[rantingranger]

It seems that you and I always respond to different parts of the same entries here :)>

[randazanda]

That's because we have excellent taste in mutual friends (and because I'm Bruce's biggest comment junkie).

I saw that picture, but my strongest memory is from So I Married an Axe Murderer:

Harriet: Can I ask you a question? Do you actually eat haggis?

Charlie: No. In fact, I think most Scottish cuisine is based on a dare.
