This act more than ever, all the best content happens after I go to bed.

That sounds like a lotta jumpin through hoops to cook a decent meal.

Binx has an eating disorder and eats like a ana-chan majority of the time after today I've pretty much made up my mind she uses being vegan as a crutch to avoid eating.

Today she was just sucking on a packet of hot sauce, previously she has done stuff like this with mustard and put stuff like hot suace on bananas. All this is very common with ana-chans I'm not deep enough into that culture to know why this is besides the sauce has no calories but its super super super common.

Binx doesn't push her veganism onto others, so she's better than most.

If ReactSimply can't just pull straight from the YouTube stream, he's not going to be bothered to clip anymore this season. Wild. I was hoping to use him to fill in some gaps. Shame.

Aside from ReactSimply, the main clipper is DarkDewCube. https://www.youtube.com/@DarkDewCube
Nico_avchd hasn't uploaded in three days.
Cucumberfeet is still doing daily recaps https://www.youtube.com/@cucumberfeet/videos

They apparently got their clip of Binx stepping on Fatty flagged by React Simply and are now posting to https://www.youtube.com/@nico_avchd

For the specific example of a grilled cheese, the steps are literally identical and produces an end result within the normal range of variation for grilled cheese sandwiches. That's usually how it goes, too. Once you already have all the vegan stuff on hand, it would be jumping through a lot of hoops to go out and specifically buy process cheese food slices to make the non-vegan version.

My point still stands. Why would you jump through hoops to make a vegan sambo when you can make a normal sambo. Like imagine bein so decadent that you can afford to be that picky about food, good God

The point he's making is that in a lot of cases, as far as effort goes, it's really not much different than buying butter vs. margarine at the grocery store, and if you were at her house, the one being picky would be you if you wanted real butter.

I dislike both Binx and vegan diets, but I think the complaining about her veganism on the show is overblown, when it feels like production goes out of their way to troll her with meat half the time. Almost every time they get takeout, there's nothing even vegetarian, let alone vegan. During the pizza party after the prisoners trashed the kitchen, she ate pizza crusts out of desperation (not sure if this is even vegan, I know a lot of vegans consider yeast a no, but I can't remember if pizza dough calls for it). The other day in the hotel, she ate Fatty's lettuce and tomato or something because literally every sub they ordered had pastrami or something on it. And going to a restaurant she didn't choose and asking what the vegan options are/ordering weird shit to make do isn't really her fault.

Like I said, not a fan, but of all things she's been a twat about, she's actually been a pretty good sport about not being catered to as a vegan.

I've never heard of a vegan having a problem with yeast. Honey? Yes. Yeast, no.

I haven't dated a vegan in several years, but Chao (from Field Roast) worked pretty well for grilled cheese sandwiches.
There's also not really any shortage of vegan substitutes for butter/mayonnaise.

If you're insistent on doing meat simulacra, I recommend the mycoprotein route. Paradis Vegetarien was one I remember being particularly good. But you can also just cook recipes that never had meat in them and are already good while being accidentally vegan. And then get a bacon cheeseburger at the airport on your way home.

"Thanks for those vegan recipes" - nobody

Zyxlyz is another good clipper

Like I said, not a fan, but of all things she's been a twat about, she's actually been a pretty good sport about not being catered to as a vegan.

She's made remarks about how she can't eat or lost weight since she arrived though. Off the top of my head : "did you see me only eat an apple for dinner?" after they ordered out one night back in the tank.
A good friend of mine has been vegan for years and he's actually chill about it, meaning if we're all invited and the host doesn't know he's vegan, he won't say anything and eat what he's offered. I've seen him eat meat everyday when were all invited at a friend's cabin for a reunion, but he doesn't complain or try to make others feel bad about it.

Ever since the RV trip began Burt has been cracking as if he had been acting the entire time and is starting to break. I never noticed these little smirks until we got the closeup HD RV camera going last Friday, where the smirks were immediately apparent. He's also been making more obvious jokes like "I want the biggest weiner they got... hot dog" and "I just need some meat in me" then acting as if he didn't mean for it to sound sexual. Earlier in the season he said the whole neurotic crazy schizo thing was getting stale (as if he was faking it) and also said he pretended the computer was real even though he knew it wasn't actually AI to be more engaging for the audience. Wish I had clip but this stuff was definitely said. My 160 IQ schizo theory is that Burt understands how weird he is and plays it up for comedic effect, and when the cams went down after the fake ending Burt finally broke character for a bit after he went downstairs. Now that the show is back on he's been hamming it up even harder and starting to break. Also the HD cams give us closeups of his face but so did the PTZ cams so I don't think he's been doing it the whole time.

Actually being a vegan is almost impossible, animals are used for almost everything in one way or another. White sugar is bleached with bone char, wooden furniture is built with glue made from animals, etc. Going anywhere with a vegan who is as strict as possible is annoying as hell because they can't do or eat anything. Every vegan is forced to make compromises in order to function in society, and vegans expecting you to accommodate them to the fullest extent are insane.

That being said, a vegan can't just eat meat one day if they've been vegan for a long time: they will get violently ill. I fully understand if they force Binx to eat bread with honey or refined sugar in it or something, just because it's not really avoidable, but meat is easily avoided and forcing a vegan to eat it is almost like forcing a lactose intolerant person to drink milk.

She's brought that up, too. I think she's said she tried going back before, but being sick wasn't worth it.

At this point, I want a Binx W because it would piss off redditors, and she's broken her veganism by eating a bite of that burger patty.

I don't like the El Cortez because they nickel and dime the fuck out of you, so I've never stayed there. They have a pretty decent restaurant with good food in the El Cortez. They used to have a $14.99 prime rib dinner, I'm sure it's 25 or 30 now, but it was really good. Seasonal vegetables cooked just right kind of good. They should see if they can get into the El Cortez since it's so close.

The Cort would've had a good vibe for Fishtank: run-down, trashy, pockets of surreal insanity.

It was also among the last of a dying breed, a Vegas casino not owned by one of the big corps. As recently as twenty years ago you could still go down to their shitty low limit poker tables and play against the owner Jackie Gaughan.

Depends on the vegan I guess. From a cursory google search apparently it's a minority, but the ones I knew personally wouldn't.

They all complain about not having food, I don't really see Binx complaining more than anyone else. The day they ordered Jersey Mike's, fatty and Luke bitched about being hungry for hours. Alex begged for takeout on his hands and knees to the camera.

The apple night was the night Alex's wife was there, and I'm pretty sure that's literally what they gave her to eat. Pretty sure they cooked that night, as that was the only night I remember them all eating in the dining room, and they ate family style. I screen capped Binx's apple for the thread because I thought it was funny. I can't remember what exactly they served everyone else, but I remember there being sausage because Burt was being gay and asking if he could eat someone else's.

Ok, fine. I love Season 3 again.

Ok, fine. I love Season 3 again.

Yeah I think people's memory is pretty short nowadays, but looking back on it Season 3 definitely had its moments. The end stretch hasn't been great, but everything before it was pretty amazing.
