Early onset bitter old man disease leads to MCS

[Donw]

Come on all you old farts and fartesses, get with the modern lingo. Bitter Old Man Disease (BOMD) is so 2017 and no longer acceptable to mention in society. People afflicted are not bitter but are instead just viewing the world as it is really is and being honest about it. And, it does not strictly affect those who identify as male.
After consultation with several vegans and also a few crystal vibration experts please remember to use the more acceptable Honest Age Rich Person Syndrome (HARPS) when describing yourselves.
And, though we can only hope for a more woke future, remember that STCG and EVO are still considered illegal in many countries around the world.

What it is, what it is!

Steve R. I’m actually going to get the Pit Boss spatulas. They have a round tab so you can hang em on the griddle…and they’re just better looking.

[Steve R.]

My point was that you should have both. And yeah, I read similar claims somewhere about the Bronco Pro. Still waiting for that body transformation, and I currently have the same amount of hair as I do in my avatar. I think I'm still in the refund window, but I'll have to check to be sure.

I think that Kevin needs to get him a Pit Boss griddle too! Oh klflowers Where are you?

[klflowers]

Panhead John fortunately my mcs doesn't extend past cookers and knives. I have a couple griddle sets so I am set. Thanks for your _%/^/%ing concern though

vacation with in-laws is worth way more than that, the keyboard is calling……

It’s a well known fact that Pit Boss griddle owners undergo tremendous physical transformations after purchasing their griddle. This does not happen with Blackstone Griddle owners.

Imagine what I look like since I own TWO Pit Boss griddles AND a Bronco Pro!

vacation with in-laws is worth way more than that, the keyboard is calling……

Actually, the vacation itself wasn't that bad. It was my wife's parents 50th Anniversary and they rented a huge cabin (like 7 bedrooms with 3 of them king suites with baths) in the Black Hills and wanted the whole family to go. The problem was it was a Lead, SD address, but was still about 25 miles from Lead and Deadwood which put it even further from most of the stuff everyone wanted to do. I didn't care to vote on any of the 'wanted to do' as running everywhere sightseeing vacations are not my preferred thing, I was along out of respect for my in-laws and to hopefully enjoy the company. Many days were at least 90 minutes of driving to get somewhere. Closest restaurants were 1/2 hour away (and I didn't want to cook for 16 all week). One day in the middle of the week, we did the Needles highway, Custer State park, etc. So, it was about 10-12 hours in the car. It was also about an 11 hour drive to get from our house to this cabin and back home. So, all the time in the car was just exhausting. I think we passed 40 hours in the car over the 6 days. It didn't start off well that the first night I had problems with my CPAP machine and literally slept less than an hour all night and we had several hours of driving to get there the next day.

Add to that our kids are 15 and 21 and I have 2 nephews that are 11 & 12 and one of them likely has ADHD. When you're exhausted at the end of the day, sharing a house with that many people and a kid that has infinite energy, it took a lot of self control to keep my mouth shut when I couldn't go somewhere to get away for a bit easily. (I am an introvert and can spend days at a time in solitude happily).

I had a really long paragraph about a near blow up event that luckily fizzled out quick, but decided to save ya'll wasted time reading it and took it out. Only minor issues were one family member had a few fits when minor plan changes occurred and if they thought they weren't going to get to do absolutely every single activity they wanted to do or their kids to experience...even though once they got there in their own car they never started it again until we headed back home. Their immediate family could have done their own thing at any time but apparently thought all 16 of us had to hold hands all week. What was funny was their children actually seemed to have more fun when we finally got back to the cabin each day just hanging out with all their cousins rather then during all the riding and sight seeing.

Everyone pretty much got along all week. I actually love all my in-laws and like every family each of us has our quirks and not so glowing moments but pretty much all accept each other for who we are. 6 days of 16 people is just a lot for me and a lot of work emotionally. I was more tired after getting back from vacation than before we left.

Sounds like your post was cathartic!

glitchy I sold one of my son-in-laws on this deal very easily today, and with he and my daughter ordered this Woot! deal while over here today. I think that 22" Cuisinart griddle with be a perfect size for them. He's been helping cook on my Camp Chef for a couple of years - the biggest learning curve will be that there is no "back stop" to push to on the round griddles, like on the rectangular ones. I told him the solution is just to use 2 spatulas when trying to shovel stuff on the griddle...

When he left here, he was also looking at used BGE's in tables (local on FB) to supplement the new griddle, and totally replace his old grill that is rusted out.

[glitchy]

It’s definitely a heckova deal if you want a griddle, but I’m worried you may have too much influence over him if you have him eyeing ceramics too 🤪 Hope they like the 360, I still haven’t told the wife about mine, but probably find out Tuesday.

[jfmorris]

glitchy he sought approval from my daughter, and she got on her phone and ordered it for whatever reason. He then showed her a BGE in a cedar table/cart for $600 in FB and she told him ‘not now’. They are very fiscally responsible, and just paid off a 30 year mortgage in 2.5 years.

He sees and helps me cook on the griddle and kamado all the time here, so wants the same setup…
