Anthony Bourdain

Post by E.H. Ruddock »

I enjoy watching his Parts Unknown. I usually like the international destinations though. Just watched his recent Nashville one and like most of his u.s. destinations usually end up reminding me how pretentious the food culture in America has become.

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

I wonder if I've ever been to any of the places he visited.

it's not just food. it's everything that 20-35 year olds without children do. a significant component of their free time involves consuming food and drink, while articulating their amazing opinions. these apex extended adolescent hominids exhibit price inelasticity with respect to goods and services that satisfy their ego-inflation needs. their inextinguishable time and energy surplus fuels eccentric conspicuous consumption preferences. it creates a vibrant market for locally-sourced holistic organic farm-to-table ass-to-mouth restaurantism.

I passed most of a long haul flight a few years ago getting through the No Reservations episodes they had.

I was thinking the other day how every clickbait article title sprinkles superlatives around like they're going out of style. Is this an extension of the "everyone's a winner" thinking, that everything is "amazing!" and "You'll never believe it!"?

Not being able to watch Parks Unknown is the worst thing about not having cable.

Eh. It was more of a shower thought than a critique of your wording. One of those "this isn't worthy of a thread" thoughts.

This week's episode in Rome was great. They chose to only film/show Mussolini era buildings in their backgrounds and scene shots.
