Sure, particularly a Gyromitra esculenta sauce with meat or salmon even. And prepared properly, as it's extremely poisonous. Boletus edulis (porcini) too. Both from the wild, not shops, mind you.Originally Posted by Lykren

van Eyck?
Oh yes!
Chile verde pork burritos?
Haven't eaten them but looking at a recipe, aye.
Cooking without a recipe?
My poor lad... I had no idea... hahawe have some damn fine Mexican restaurants down here in the sun!
Without a recipe? I don't believe I ever have, and it probably would not be successful.
The word 'hella'?
Oh, definitely the word 'hella' - it's a word for a kitchen stove in Finnish
Not that keen on the English word, but it has its place in the vernacular.
The word 'anfractuous'?
Ha! I know that word! But only because Proust (that is, the translators) has used it twice so far. Yes, I like it.
The word perlocutionary?
aye.
doing "quote marks" with your hands. (someone has to admit liking it, because many people do it).
E: Not a fan of doing quotation mark gestures. One can suggest that with alteration of tone, or using words.
Aye, and I've seen it before, and the roots are familiar. Had to check the meaning, though.
The word timesome? (yes, it is a word)
Aye, cutely quaint feeling, once I looked up the meaning.
Noam Chomsky?
Not too familiar with Chomsky's linguistic theory, but aye.
piaffe, v.?
Nay, looks silly.
Peoplewatching?
That's why it's so descriptive(To strut ostentatiously, parade)
The Desmond Morris book on bodylanguage? Looks interesting. A nice word too.Peoplewatching?
Trainspotting?
Nay, boring.
Sleeping 12 hours in one night?
The movie isn't that boring, though.
12 hours is a bit much, 10 hours is probably the longest I might sleep if I was really sleep deprived. But that's an age thing, in my late teens I recall sleeping for 13 hours once. But again, this is personal, and depends on how much of your sleep is deep sleep. I'm usually good if I get 7 hours.
Aurelius' Meditations?
Pompey?
