Here it is. $1.99 Trader Joe’s (Ming’s) box o’ microwave Thai food. The cool thing about it was that the rice was actually cooked and bagged, so it really was just like warming up leftovers. The uncool thing was the taste.

I have another flavor at home (green curry) that I still have to try. My hopes for it are not very high after this first experience, though.

Trader Ming's [ Thu Feb 19 2009 4:03 PM ]

When it comes to Trader Whatever's you're better off sticking with the frozen stuff. Aside from tasting bad, there's something unsettling about room temperature boxes of food.
And avoid their cardboard-flavored tortilla chips all together.

ok [ Thu Feb 19 2009 7:07 PM ]

I think Brady Bunch is SUPER overrated. It's just not that good. But definitely Animal Collective, too.

And Dune. [ Thu Feb 19 2009 7:09 PM ]

Reading Dune was like reading the Wall Street Journal, except for the sandworm parts.

and I had to google Megan Fox [ Thu Feb 19 2009 7:15 PM ]

but she definitely doesn't look like she'd talk to me, which is fine.

i agree [ Thu Feb 19 2009 11:00 PM ]

totally agree with all of those except TV. My two cents,
1. South Park
2. Balloon Fiesta (it makes traveling on the west side impossible)
3. Kevin Smith (except for Chasing Amy and Clerks, the dude's work is banal, admittedly none of my friends like him though)

I don't know, Jessica [ Thu Feb 19 2009 11:42 PM ]

I love exactly 5 things on TV, and I've never seen Megan Fox, but that does put me in mind of Michael J. Fox, who started on TV. See? TV=okay in a way.

Take it or leave it...unless [ Fri Feb 20 2009 9:35 AM ]

TV I could do without unless Twilight Zone is on. I also think pants are overratted, but people tell me I can't go out that way.
