It's like people pointing out what are obvious typos, as if they've
never done it.

LOL Oldie but goodie joke:

A rather snooty woman was sitting next to another woman in an airport.
The second woman asked the first, "Where are you from?" The snooty
woman replied, "I'm FROM a place where we don't end a sentence with a
preposition." The second woman thought for a moment, then said, "Okay,
where are you from, bitch?"

I guess it depends on what you are eating. When I make a curry to use up
leftover lamb I prefer to have the onion very coarsely chopped. When I
put it into a meatloaf I prefer a much finer mince.

Indeed it is, and they seem to think they have made some sort of
brilliant observation that they seem to think is a valid rebuttal
instead of just a childish stunt. If you can't refute the argument,
point out a meaningless error.

I was trying to make a point about a common error and being careful not
to fall the same trap into.

If ending a sentence with a preposition was good enough for Winston Churchill,
it's good enough for me. I generally try to avoid it, but I won't tie myself
into knots over it.

Thank you.
The only meat the dwarf knows how to cook is CHEAP tube steak.
We're having pot roast again tonight, even better than last night. Top
round makes great pot roast, chuck contains way too much fat for pot
roast... but it figures the dwarf would prefer chuck... just look at
him... a four foot tall four foot wide slab of chuck. LOL-LOL

Lamb should be tossed into the trash can... and slam on the lid, lamb
schtinks... I'd far rather clean cat liter pans than endure the stench
of lamb.

Even a mere bias cut would get boring. I wonder if even at Taco Bell

I can't explain it, but it seems to work. I used to frequently cook beef
tenderloins that way. I would crack pepper and press it into the meat
and let it sit for a while. Then I would heat up a cast iron pan and
sprinkle some coarse salt in the pan and flop the steak down. After the
meat was cooked I would add some red wine, a little Worcestershire
sauce, a little lemon juice and some butter to make a sauce. Now that
BBQ season is coming to a close it may be time to dust off that recipe.

Sometimes salt does its thing better when it is applied to the meat
earlier. We are having pork chops grilled on the BBQ tonight. I always
salt pork at least an hour before cooking. It does wonders for the end
result. Consider the concept of the dry rub, which is usually salt,
sugar and an assortment of spices and herbs. Some of them do their
thing for a day or more. It is not the same as applying some after the
meat is cooked.

Ellipses. An ellipsis is a set of three periods ( . . . ) indicating an
omission. Each period should have a single space on either side, except
when adjacent to a quotation mark, in which case there should be no space.

Aside from seasoning it acts as a dry lubricant keeping the meat from
sticking.

The 'rules' of proper grammar etc. do vary depending where you are.

You know, I don't salt steaks... I don't think a good steak needs it.
I've never even thought about before, hmm.

Merriam-Webster distinguishes between "ellipsis marks [ ? ]" and
"suspension points [ . . . ]".

There is not one golden rule.

True. Americans tend to use 2 blank spaces between sentences. French
tend to put a blank space before an exclamation mark or a question mark.
Etc.

That got mangled during conversion. It should read like this:

Merriam-Webster distinguishes between "ellipsis marks [ ... ]" and
"suspension points [ . . . ]".

There is not one golden rule.

Lamb should be tossed into the trash can... and slam on the lid, lamb
schtinks... I'd far rather clean cat liter pans than endure the stench
of lamb.

Lamb??? Lamb is wonderful! I have some leg steaks for Sunday dinner and I
will cook them with a mint sauce. I don't know where you buy your lamb but
mine never stinks.

I've eaten lamb (perfectly cooked, tiny chops), and it tasted like
it died last winter and decomposed. Really, you've got to allow
others to have taste preferences (even if Sheldon doesn't).
