      @merchillio 2 года назад +4

      @@u2s5thmember obviously every improv league/group/troupe is different, but usually, you should keep the scene “coherent”.
      For example, if someone mime opening a door, every actor (and spectator) understands that there a wall and a door there, so it would look weird if another actor walked right through where there was a imagined door a few seconds ago without opening it.
      In the case of a coffee mug, for example, if you’re holding it (or pretend holding it) and you don’t mime putting it down, do you still have it in your hand? If you open your hand, did the mug fall to the ground?
      It’s usually understood that everything you “bring” into a scene remains there until the end of the scene (unless explicitly gotten rid of).
      I know improv is often mocked, often with good reason, but many actors started there and quality improvisation (key word: quality) is fun to watch.

      @@shawn5346 Believe it or not, I actually ordered the book back in the 1970's. Yeah you had to special order the first edition for some reason. I was a teenager at the time and one of those naive people who was expecting a 'Lord of the Rings' type story. I was obliviously disappointed, and only eventually read the book in my twenties. I respect Stephen's love of the material, which I share, just not to the same degree.
      And to be clear Stephen's intimate knowledge of Tolkien's works identifies him as a geek, not a nerd. I am a nerd. Because I think of things like--how was Orome riding through the forests of Middle Earth in the ages of the Two Trees in Valinor? After all the continent of Middle Earth was in complete darkness except for the stars. And trees can't photosynthesize using starlight. So how does that work?

    • @robertglass3944
      @robertglass3944 2 года назад +8

      I understand your frustration, but leaving the tails on adds considerable flavor to the sauce.
      Of course, you can have it without the tails, but you are left with an inferior sauce. However good you think that sauce is, it would better if the tails had been left on.
      Fact. Ask any chef, not from South Carolina.
      Some food is messy, but it's usually worth the trouble. Just ask any Cajun, West Indian, Indonesian, or Buffalo Wingian.
      But, I get it. Some people will take convenience over superior flavor any day, (hell, there are people who eat pizza with a knife and fork, ffs!). But, personally, if I'm not in the mood to get my fingers dirty, I'd rather order something without shrimp, than have it without the tails. But, I'm a pretty hard core foodie who would never substitute superior flavor for convenience. I'd rather have to take a shower after lunch, than have a slightly bland sauce.
      I'm just sayin'...

    I've been watching you since the days of The Colbert Report. Over the years I've agreed with you 99.98% of the time and in my humble opinion you're the best in the business. Having said that and with the greatest love and respect, tearfully I must say on a good day N.C.BBQ is better. Sorry. But hey you were right about the Shrimp and the Moustache. Cheers from Canada.

    One of the few things I find better than vinegar when it comes to treating 'overly flavourful meat' (IE pork, especially from an boar) is alcohol. Vinegar adds more flavour, alcohol seems to strip off some of the less desired elements.
    Caramelized onion is very good on pizza, but I cannot say strongly enough give caramelized leeks a chance. I often make pretty serious pizza, and one of the better ingredients is browned beef, with caramelized leeks or onions naturally, you can just fry them together first. Still, if I'm limited on choices, I'll usually take the salty trio, bacon, feta, and black olives. Hard to screw that up!
