Great story about a man who set out to master every dish in the Alinea cookbook

1/ There's a fascinating story of a normal guy named Allen Hemberger who became obsessed with the Alinea cookbook. He spent 5 years re-creating all 107 recipes.

There's an extremely valuable lesson in this process for anyone thinking about taking the leap to become a creator.

Here's the thread.

My favorite line:

16/ There's a line in an interview where he says "I'd always regarded creativity as you go to sleep at night and you're struck by inspiration. But maybe it's a willingness to keep doing something until you've gotten it honed and then being ready for the moment."

I waitressed at olive garden for years and no amount of training can prepare you for the number of men who think it's ok to propose to their girlfriends in an olive garden on valentine's day

‘We’re just friends.’

The cult member who pointed me to the toilet replies.

‘Oh. I like your... tops?’ I say, temporarily forgetting the word ‘robe.’

He and a friend smile at me, but after a pause when it becomes clear that nothing will be said in response, I scuttle off..

Students, you must remember that the thesaurus is a liar. No matter how sweet its call, how inviting its search function, it is not your friend. It is not there to help you. It will inevitably betray you, for it is your nemesis; it lives for one purpose: to destroy your writing.

I'm so happy for Timothée Chalamet getting his Oscar nomination, really I am but I can't read about him without having a massive stress flashback to that time I accidentally kissed his dad on the mouth in front of his wife
