Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

Asian cuisine has fish sauce, from which Worchestershire sauce is inspired.

But, again, in modern sushi, you probably want the fish to stand out, and fish sauces are... pungent.
Fish sauces go back at least to antiquity, garum being an example. Worcestershire just out competed other English recipes. Pretty much every culture that does a lot of fishing invents one.

I was aware of the Italian fish sauces, but now I know about Norwegian fish sauce as well.. Surprised that I did not find a Finnish recipe, they are probably too busy cooking their fish on their boat motor to bother.

Dang Millennials! Now they're ruining sainthood!
In rereading my joke, I see I may have come across poorly. I was of course referencing the "Dang Millenials!" meme. However, the saint himself was a cool guy, and I don't want to tarnish the actual story. My excuse is, I had to have a blood test this morning so that post was before I had any coffee or food. My apologies if I offended anyone; my stupidity is always intended to entertain, and only in extremely rare instances (and never in this thread) intended to offend.
 

I played Assassins' Creed: Valhalla, so technically I invented Worcestershire sauce. You're welcome!

Invented? Well, I perfected pronouncing Worcestershire sauce!

Snarf's New England Bloody Mary Recipe & Worcestershire / Worcester Pronunciation Primer

Ingredients
Bottle of vodka
Tomato Juice
Bottle of Worcestershire Sauce
Another Bottle of Vodka
Celery Salt
Garlic Salt
Prepared Hot Horseradish
Tabasco Sauce (or other hot sauce, if you prefer)
Fresh Ground Pepper
Kosher Salt
Tajin
Third Bottle of Vodka
Garnishes (olives, celery, other stuff)
Plane Ticket to Worcester, Massachusetts


Pre-recipe Instructions
A. Get plane tickets to Worcester, Massachusetts.
B. Realize that there are almost no flights there, because, c'mon, who wants to go there?
C. Fly to Logan.
D. Rent a car and drive to Worcester.
E. Look around you, regret your life decisions. It's drinkin' time.

Steps
1. Take a long pull from the vodka bottle.
2. Look at the bottle of Worcestershire sauce. Try to figure out how to pronounce it. Woo-ster? No, that's where you are, or is it Woo-stah? Rooster? Hell?
3. Stir together the tomato juice, horseradish, Worcestershire sauce, celery salt, garlic salt, black pepper, and Tabasco in a large pitcher.
4. Take another pull from the vodka bottle.
5. No, that's not it. WAR-chest-sire!
6. Take another pull from the vodka bottle.
7. Rim the glasses with a mix of celery salt, kosher salt, and Tajin.
8. Wait .... is it like a Cheshire cat? Is that bottle smiling at you? War-shire?
9. Take another pull from the vodka bottle.
10. Look at that rabbit food they call garnishes. Isn't fit to feed a hamster, is it? Throw it around the hotel room. Look outside the window at the glory that is Worcester. Recoil, and close the shades.
11. Finish the first bottle of vodka.
12. It's just American soy sauce. That's what you'll call it!
13. Fill a glass with ice and add two ounces of vodka.
14. Look at that blood-red mix you've created. Do you really want to drink that? Naw. Pour it down the drain. Of the shower. Next time, get a hotel room with a kitchen. That isn't in Worcester.
15. Drink the glass of vodka.
16. Really, a W is just two Vs, right? Vorkestershire sauce? Doesn't sound right.
17. Pour several shot glasses with vodka. Top with tabasco sauce. Drink as shooters. YES!
18. What's this here. THAT'S IT! Here being Woo-stah.
19-30. You don't remember 19-30.
31. Why did you wake up in the late afternoon in a hotel room in Worcester surrounded by three empty vodka bottles?

Massachusetts Special:
Add clam chowder, garnish with Dunkies.
 



A hole that is as large as the object that contains it is not a hole.*

Once you've properly attached the top to the bottom crust, it ceases to be a separate entity. Then, topologically, there is no difference between "pie with a small hole in the top" and "pie with a very large hole in the top".

This is math, dude. You can argue with math, but it is more stubborn than you, for any given value of "you".

This is the difference between wearing socks with holes in them, and burning your socks and going barefoot and saying, "I am wearing socks with a very very very large hole."

Topologically, a sock is not the same as a sock with a hole in it, which is not the same as no sock.

I'm guessing your rules-maker really wouldn't want to hear the discussion of how the thing we call "cheesecake" is really a custard pie...
