a_singular_strike - 500th Message AMA

[a_singular_strike]

Let's start the new year with the AMA everyone was waiting for. Grab your popcorn, prepare your questions and be elated by the answers.

To make the job for a certain panda easier, I love tiramisu (with vanilla pudding added to the mascarpone instead of eggs), so no cake/pie for me. (though I gravitate to pie if I have to make a choice)

As I stood there and thought, this came to mind while playing Darkest Dungeon and hearing it.

 

[DavidianMillerian]

how's your and @BlackGeneral's project going?

You too are one of the collaborators
I have to get the remaining character sheets done and started to list locations and minor characters, but nothing too fancy is finished yet.
(P.S.: you can ask this on the Discord too, I am just too shy to post much in there, unless it's more or less a finished prototype)

 

[Angry_Panda]

Cake or pie? I'm asking it anyway on formality.

(NOT STEALING THIS TIME, YOU DARN KIDS!)

[Angry_Panda]

And yes, a good tiramisu is delightful. Creme Brulee is also acceptable.

Sigh, pie.

YES THANK YOU DAVID.

It sort of started a journey to find the best Tiramisu, or at least the best from all those that I am able to eat as a normal person (no luxury dessert for me). Nothing can beat the one I got first (my mother one's).

Same thing with pistachio ice cream. Current winner is a Turkish café (that is not even in Turkiye )

...what's your opinion on spumoni?

 

[a_singular_strike]

Depends on the pistachio

For clarification, while the other two are important too, you can't do too much wrong with chocolate and cherry. Of course, there is always a way to improve the flavour, fruitiness (for cherry), etc. but they would still unmistakably be chocolate and cherry. I've had pistachio that tasted like nothing, some that tasted like a less intensive, but green hazelnut, some that tasted okay-ish and only a few that really tasted like pistachio. It's an arduous journey, but a funny way to rate the quality of the ice cream parlor or brand.

would you ride this mobile?

Also which is the best ship on the forums?

Best ship, huh? Outside of the love hexagon (possibly more) that involves @BakedBanana there aren't a lot of options. At least one partner is gone in most other ships, making them disfunct. MSML has possibly the highest number of those ships.

For the other kind of ships, I can't really talk much. I do like airships, the Hindenburg looked beautiful inside and outside (not looking at the Nazi-Propaganda, I mean just the ship).

Well, in that case... how many times have you replicated this meme?

The part of putting (vanilla!) pudding on top of Tiramisu is already heresy! Pistachio ice-cream variants (and even mochi) are like a downgrade of matcha, but have you tried Turkish pistachio desserts? They're truly delish, specially the pie (@Angry_Panda ).

 

[Itsukimoto]

Of course its @medalion x @a_singular_strike Nya.

 

[panzerkampfwagyu]

Creme Brulee is a truly goated dessert, indeed.

In any case, now to a real question: What's the best seasoning for rice in your view?

 

[bigtiddyoneesan]

where were you around 10:30 a.m. on august 21st, 2023?

 

[a_singular_strike]

At least one time, that's for sure. Deus Vult, after all.

Eh, not on top, just used instead of raw egg. Goes really well with Cocoa powder too (I can hear the Manko-inquisition already). Sure it isn't that firm like the original recipe, but sure tastes better.

Time to go on another endless journey, I suppose. Haven't had one yet, will look for ways to try (someday).
