Random Rants...or...where my stress goes

This is a hilarious 8 minute video on the proper way of how to order and eat sushi.

Apparently, I am a low-income earner, as I actually enjoy "toro".

Is it good??

I think I'm just too poor... ;)

Seems like an expensive, fancy, "acquired" taste.

Or, you know: blah. ;)

Happy Friday, Joshie! :)
Take care,

Xericx,
Will never order a "sake bomb".

It is truly just a "filler" (just to fill you up" most of the time if you don't get the good cuts (chu-toro or o-toro).

Also, never mix your wasabi and soy sauce. That's just completely retarded.

"But its my sushi, I'll eat it like I want to"

Hogwash. Might as well dump ketchup on your sushi if you want to kill the flavor of the fish.
