Making Szechuan sauce at home

[Mihalik]

Szechuan is okay with certain things, but I don't understand the hype around.

Horrible show, horrible sauce.

I actually agree. I don’t understand why people act like sheeps when it comes to this show.

It's for smart people

Children

or Manchildren

it's either one or the other and you can't reason with either.

[Almaric]

You forgot to add 2 buckets of REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE to the recipe.

I've never seen the show, so I'm not going to judge it one way or the other.

However, I have seen plenty of Rick and Morty fans, so I feel comfortable in saying that many (not all or even most) of them are annoying and arrogant as hell, and act as if they're curing cancer by watching the show. Here's a post that provides an absolutely fascinating insight into the mind of one Rick and Morty fan:

To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Rick and Morty. The humour is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of theoretical physics most of the jokes will go over a typical viewers head. There's also Rick's nihilistic outlook, which is deftly woven into his characterisation- his personal philosophy draws heavily from Narodnaya Volya literature, for instance. The fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these jokes, to realise that they're not just funny- they say something deep about LIFE.

Getting the correct viscosity is the real trick.

i agree with you. prefer sauce made with something like ghost peppers or habaneros.

I thought you'd prefer tartar sauce. Goes good with deep fried draenei tentacles.

Nobody cares. We're talking about SZECHUAN sauce, not SICHUAN sauce. The stuff from McD's, not from ancient chinese secret.

I mean, you know that szechuan is just a (shitty) way of spelling sichuan, right? From the very beginning it was just McDonald's shitty knockoff.

Isnt that post a meme at this point?

It's transliteration, and there's no correct way to spell it in Roman characters.

I consider a transliteration to be bad if it causes people to pronounce something in a ridiculously wrong way. Szechuan, Peking, and nearly all of the Wade Giles system, are bad in this regard.

The current Pinyin standard that's taught all over the world is better in nearly all respects. Aside from a few sounds that are bizarre, someone who screws up tones is still understandable if they just do their best to pronounce it.

No disagreement. My point was only that in transliteration, correct is only a preference. If we're delving into linguistics, there could be a dozen ways or more to spell any given English word, as we have so many accents.

Anyway, somewhat on topic, this was in my interests to read through: "20 great ways to use sichuan peppercorns"

You realize you're interpreting a meme as reality right? It's like citing The Onion as a political reference.

That's the joke.
