Red Meat Issues

Posted by The Stranger Election Control Board on Tue, Nov 3, 2009 at 6:24 PM

As the Stranger Election Control Board fans out over the city...

The SECB's hive mind isn't concerned at the moment with weighty matters of state or the fate of various candidates or boondoggle tunnels and their likely cost overruns or the very real chance that King County voters might elect a local TV news anchor to head up county government when "local TV news broadcast" is universally acknowledged to be a joke—it's practically a punch line—and local TV news anchors are universally presumed to be struggling under the weight of an extra chromosome until genetic testing demonstrates otherwise. No, what concerns the SECB at the moment is this: HOW COME NO RESTAURANT IN THIS FUCKING TOWN CAN COOK A BURGER MEDIUM? WHY DOES EVERY BURGER PREPARED IN SEATTLE, NO MATTER HOW YOU ORDER IT, COME BLOODY AND BLEEDING AND RARE?

Are they trying to kill us? And the SECB would like a cupcake. And yes the SECB had two beers with that rare burger—why do you ask?

Are you out of your freaking mind? You can't get a burger in this town that isn't broiled to a deep, leathery well-done.

Darlings, I'm far from a vegetarian, but I wouldn't eat a burger unless I saw the actual grinding of the meat. They put hairballs and dog nuts and toenails from rest homes in that stuff.

Fnarf is right... it's a crime the way meat is overcooked here.

I had a rather delicious rare burger last night at Hattie's Hat.

They hockey puck everywhere. It's like they think the color pink is somewhere between brown and grey.

Try one of Fnarf's home-grilled blue cheese burgers and check yourself into heaven.

Well, since I've never been invited to Casa le Fnarf, I wouldn't know about that.....

Oh, Fnarf! How fun! We and the dogs will be there in about a half an hour. The oldest dachshund is having some back door problems, but just let me know what the dry cleaner charges are, and we'll pay up right away.
