This chick has "the elastic is worn out on my socks, and I hold my socks up to my upper shins with Razer stubble." Written all over her crazy eyes...
Read "Tender is the flesh" probably the most disturbing fiction book I ever read
Anda establish my further dominance on the food chain? Wouldn't you?
they say it tastes like gamey pork and on that basis, no
I'm not an extrovert but this is unironically one of my litmus tests for friendship.
it makes sense to misspell it as extr"o" as opposed to intr"o", but its spelled "extravert"

You an' me baby, ain't nothin' but mammals so let's do it like they do on the good cooking channels
Cannibal by Tally Hall type situation (though unlikely, as I am boring and my flesh is probably sub-par quality due to poor health), maybe with me listening to that* while zonked out my gourd sauteing a chunk of my own arm with mixed vegetables. I usually don't cook meat though, so maybe they'd do that bit.
* Also relevant but more of an emo aesthetic, Misery Meat or People Eater by Sodikken
Gurantee
Oppertunity
Pronounced “Guuuur-RON-tee” like a Cajun car salesman.
Spelling mistakes getting called out increases engagement. I'm not saying it was done on purpose in this instance, but in general it does make sense that you'll see more posts with spelling mistakes because they'll rise to the top. The only winning move is not to play.

Human flesh is said to smell and taste very similar to pork. At least one culture that partook in cannibalism called human meat "long pig" probably because of that. I'm also fairly sure I've heard stories of fire and rescue workers reporting delicious pork-roast smells that turned out absolutely horrifying and put them off pork for a very long time.
It may also be one of the reasons that certain religious texts and cultures forbid the eating of pork. It's probably more to do with how pork spoils quickly in the climates where those religions originated, as well as the risk of roundworms if it isn't cooked properly, but it does also stop the butcher from selling you a pork steak that isn't actually pork, so that's a bonus.
I was in the basement working on a electronic project sitting in the floor My parents house. Couldn't find my soldering iron holder so I just had a somewhat deep bowl and set it in upside down
Something surprising was on TV and I looked up, subconsciously I reach down to pick up the soldering iron which was upside down of its normal orientation.
I heard a sizzle. It took a good half second for me to realize it was me.
The lead on the iron was sweet when I touched the burned finger in my mouth, the skin had a decidedly porky flavor to it. Not going to lie it was kind of barbecuey...*
Edit: dictation did me dirty

Sure!
But "no one gets harmed" includes me so I better not get addicted or so help me
You can make any meat in the lab. Why stop at cow? I want all the tastes.
Imagine celebrities allowing the lab to use their cloned cells to grow "Angelina Jolie's Cultured Thighs" for public consumption or something.
...
Sounds like a Margaret Atwood novel haha
That's what I always thought would be the first thing to happen when lab grown meat becomes commonplace.
