    A Japanese soba noodle master; the noodle-making starts at about 5:30*.  Amazing skills, including his peeling a daikon and grinding fresh buckwheat by a hand-driven stone mill.  
    I used to make a lot of my own pasta, but with much help from some bougie KitchenAid machines; guys with these skills are so cool to witness.

    I like her style.

    Love that she is using, as Bourdain calls it - "that vile spew". It's fine (for this dish anyway)!

    A man and a woman who had never met before, but who were both married to other people, found themselves assigned to the same sleeping room on a transcontinental train. Though initially embarrassed and uneasy over sharing a room, they were both very tired and fell asleep quickly, he in the upper berth and she in the lower.
    At 1 : 00 AM, the man leaned down and gently woke the woman saying, "Ma'am, I'm sorry to bother you, but would you be willing to reach into the closet to get me a blanket? I'm awfully cold'."
    "I have a better idea," she replied, "Just for tonight let's pretend that we're married."
    "Wow! That's a great idea!" he exclaimed..
    "Good," she replied. "Get your own f...ing blanket."
    After a moment of silence, he farted.

    I knew a couple of guys in college that could open their throats and pour it down.  Not as enterprising as the above.

    No thinking here.  I cannot do that!

    Not getting splinters in his feet when sticking the landing is impressive in its own right.

    I had abandoned facebook a little over a year ago, was just being force-fed things I told the algorithm I wasn't interested in, too often.  Although I went thru all the steps they publish to completely nuke my FB profile, I kept getting emails, a couple a week, saying "YourFriend just commented on xx", with a link to see the comment in the "Notifications" section; I eventually figured out that I could look at those posts in the Notifications section, without seeing any ads or extraneous crap (just don't hit that Home button!).  After many months of that, I took a chance and hit the Home button.  Every post I looked at was just from a FB friend, no ads whatsoever!  I scrolled/read posts for almost an hour, before any "Suggested for You" ads came up, at which point I logged out.  
    Since then I poke into FB Home a couple times a week, and except for joining Neil deGrasse Tyson's group, haven't been active, just looked.  And I get caught up well, and know when to eject before the ads get too intrusive.
     
    TL;DR:  I left FB, but now peek in once in awhile.
     
    Now, here's my "Funny or Cool" post:  I posted this chart on NdGT's thread:
     

     
    I had no idea all the above vegetables were just different "breeds" of the same genetic species (they are different, but can cross-breed, just like different dog breeds).  I posted that on FB, and as of this afternoon have 226 "Likes" and a whole buncha comments, a personal record FWTW.  I have learned a bit more about genetic variations by breeding vs direct DNA modification/CRISPR stuff, so there's that.  
     
    And for the record, I love all vegetables except for turnips, beets and lotus root (no doubt they were all cross-bred over the years from wild hemlock or something).
