Re: The Lunch Thread

Well, to be clear, you still have to cut stuff and mix stuff and all that.

In fact, I'd say that a certain percentage of the recipes (under 20 percent) are actually not great for a true beginner. You need to know how to chop versus slice up an onion, for example.

Just depends on whether the D is set up to trap, or to guard against outside routes/fades. I mean, it's more than that, but as a MI fan that constantly saw its team gashed by slants, you learn to see what they are taking away by allowing those slants.
