@GM: Excellent... Cybitten, or cyboritten.... whichever he may prefer....

As long as you guys pinky swear :-) that I will get credit you can use it on the websites and news pages! That would be awesome!
David Cummings 2015-02-12T15:49:53-05:00
As a Marvel fan tried and true, I would call it Kittylok.
Bob "Powers of Tesla" Lindley 2015-02-12T15:50:08-05:00
My kitchen is going to be 15 x 14, French door 28 Cu ft. fridge, GE Café series appliances center island, granite counter tops, and acres of counter space. I cannot freaking wait.
Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-02-12T15:50:18-05:00
@Creeper: Boiling an egg depends on the person. I drop them in when the water is boiling, like FURIOUSLY boiling. Time them for 10min, then run under cold water after. Comes out very nice, and the shell peels off very easily. The yolk is still slightly runny too if serving/eating shortly after. Yolk will be a little harder if refrigerated.
@David: What will be your supper power and alignment. Kittilok(s) it is!!!
Marie "Catness" C 2015-02-12T15:52:07-05:00
Creeper, I get really good, highly reliable results for hard cooking eggs in steam.
Bob "Powers of Tesla" Lindley 2015-02-12T15:52:11-05:00
I actually wanted manmade, but it was quite a bit more expensive.
Marissa "Blondie" Brice 2015-02-12T15:52:32-05:00
I just have to pop my head in again to say I LOVE your team name, "Beer and Smoking in Las Vegas" is just hysterical and I want to make it the name of a Hunter S Thompson themed party I now feel the serious urge to throw!!
ALSO
@David Cummings that Cyberkitty is EPIC!! Love it! AHHH! Especially the eye(s)/lazer
Marissa "Blondie" Brice 2015-02-12T15:53:04-05:00
Oh that team name thing was directed @ToS - I am scatterbrained
Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-02-12T15:53:32-05:00
I mean... I do it once a year for Easter eggs... But I do appreciate everyone's techniques!

Also, you can pick up a couple of extra decks for gifts too! Who wouldn't like getting the most awsomeness-gift ever?!?!?
@Creeper: Ah, yeah, my method there is always one or two eggs that had air pockets in them that burst...but they are good with a sprinkling of salt if that happens.
Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-02-12T15:55:21-05:00
Where is PoT's house? I need to start writing these things down. City... Not actual address
Marissa "Blondie" Brice 2015-02-12T15:55:32-05:00
OMG and I said @ToS when I meant @PoT I'm just gonna...rest my brain...too blonde today sorry
Bob "Powers of Tesla" Lindley 2015-02-12T15:55:44-05:00
@Creeper. You have every reason to be jealous, I spent years dreaming about my kitchen. And now by God I will have it. Oh yeah, enormous walk in pantry too.
Marie "Catness" C 2015-02-12T15:56:43-05:00
PoT, I love a good pantry!
Bob "Powers of Tesla" Lindley 2015-02-12T15:57:30-05:00
You would not envy my current kitchen @Creeper. It's going to take a year to get it built and all set up for company. But when we do. It is going to be party central. That is how I designed it.
@Catness: Not going to lie...I saw that comment out of the corner of my eye and thought you said you love a good panty.
Chris "The Historian" Loth 2015-02-12T15:58:25-05:00
@Blondie, watching to much Star Trek: ToS are we?
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2015-02-12T15:58:49-05:00
I always put the eggs in the cold water, and bring it up to a furious boil, then take it off the heat and let it sit for 10mins or so. I also add a tbsp of vinager to the water to prevent the outside of the yolk from discolouring.
Marie "Catness" C 2015-02-12T15:59:02-05:00
GM, I would never say that. Most mostly because I almost never say that word.
Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-02-12T15:59:30-05:00
For 9 years, I had a kitchen that was in the corner of my living room- nyc apartments are awful. I nearly cried when I saw the kitchen in my current apartment. It's not amazing, but it's amazing for ny standards. I'm sure you current kitchen is still better than mine!!
Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-02-12T16:00:10-05:00
That's how kitchens should be set up, anyway! Everyone always ends up in the kitchen.
Marie "Catness" C 2015-02-12T16:00:26-05:00
GM, for many of my formative years I didn't have any sisters, so we called everything underwear. That's a habit I continue. Not that there's anything wrong with calling women's underwear bottoms something different to differentiate from bras or other lingerie, I just don't do it.
@Catness: I think it mostly came from me turning my head as I saw the comment, so the r got lost in the shifting. And normally I just say underwear too. Unless I'm talking about those weird vending machines that are supposedly around parts of Japan.
Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-02-12T16:02:31-05:00
Catness- I always say underwear. Panties sounds sooo odd to me
Bob "Powers of Tesla" Lindley 2015-02-12T16:02:45-05:00
I wish I could post the drawings for you. I'm actually very proud of it. I did the base design and then hired an architect to make sure everything was to code and structurally sound. He changed very little.
Mike Kabala 2015-02-12T16:03:48-05:00
@David Cummings, do you have a copy of the image without the watermark? I can't use it if it has a watermark.
Ernie 2015-02-12T16:04:02-05:00
very late to the party here, game looks amazing. Anything I can do to help unlock that 30th achievement?
I always prefer kitchens that are designed to be party central...makes dinner parties better because you can put your guests to work and make it interactive.
Bob "Powers of Tesla" Lindley 2015-02-12T16:04:59-05:00
I just did the floor plan. My wife wanted a Craftsman exterior so I had the architect do all of the elevation plans himself.
I love putting my guests to work in the kitchen. Unfortunately where I currently live it's not normal - kosher kitchen - so I've had to adjust & instead have people bring & do potluck. It just isn't as much fun & people don't relax as much as they do if they've had to get their hands dirty.
Ernie 2015-02-12T16:07:38-05:00
That does seem like the most doable achievement, but I don't think I even have 20 friends. Not even taking into consideration cat ears.
@Explaitten: I would have to agree, I find when people have their hands working to get everything together with you, they seem more relaxed and enjoy it more....I might plan a dinner party like that...have it start at like 3pm, and everyone helps make dinner/dessert/appies/etc.
Creeper, I don't have a problem with the word, but it seemed an unnecessary word until I was older and now I'm set in my ways.
Bob "Powers of Tesla" Lindley 2015-02-12T16:12:02-05:00
@Explanitten. Exactly. There will even be a small bar/prep sink across the room from the big sink, with the island in between so I can have someone acting as bartender or doing prep while I'm cooking.
I frequently had people help with "finishing" things, cutting up veggies for salad, doing the dishes, setting the table, beer & wine (drinking while working).
Sometimes it was "teach specific foods/dishes" they'd enjoyed in the past or "themed foods" or "keeping kosher isn't that scary".
I'm fairly relaxed about stuff getting broken and have extra knives, cutting boards, and mixing bowls. I love getting kids and people who haven't much experience in the kitchen involved. I also try to be the first to drop/spill/break something so everyone else can feel ok as I went "first" (well if my husband is around he goes first - we are both klutzes).
Super powers: superclaws for destroying furniture, laser sights for detecting yarn (Unfortunately, whenerver Kittylok uses his laser sights, he gets very distracted by it for ... like, hours at a time). Radar dish hearing for listening for can openers within a 20 mile radius.
@Explaitten: I have my personal knives, from when I was working in higher end restaurants where EVERYONE has their own tools. Those ones, I VERY rarely let anyone use. Especially my expensive Japanese knife. That thing cuts like a dream, even weeks after getting it sharpened.

@Catness: Pantry. A concept that some people don't seem to realize. Whenever the weather man says there is going to be a snow storm, people go nuts and bum rush the grocery store to gorge on food stuffs. My gran taught me to have a stock pile of food BEFORE the storm hits so that you can relax at home and not have to worry about whether or not you are going to starve.
Bob "Powers of Tesla" Lindley 2015-02-12T16:26:57-05:00

David Cummings 2015-02-12T16:27:54-05:00
I sent it. Also for a little while, I took the watermark off the pic and allowed downloards (I am like the most paranoid artist you've ever seen!) so if anyone wants it, you can get it from my deviant art page.
Horror Junky - Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-02-12T16:29:28-05:00
@Catness: You mentioned a pantry down in the comments below. Not many people have pantries especially in colder climates. Here in D.C. people go nuts the moment they hear the words "snow storm" and rush to buy all of the food their cars can carry.
Horror Junky - Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-02-12T16:29:46-05:00
Sorry, just a random thought since people were talking about food and kitchens and stuff.
Marissa "Blondie" Brice 2015-02-12T16:29:54-05:00
I think Geist misunderstood the whole panty/pantry talk lol
Marie "Catness" C 2015-02-12T16:30:48-05:00
Geist, I like pantries. Maybe people in the DC area think their cars are pantries waiting to be filled in an emergency!
Horror Junky - Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-02-12T16:31:28-05:00
@Blondie: You wear panties? :-O
Marie "Catness" C 2015-02-12T16:31:33-05:00
Blondie, I think so. Geist, it would have been a very helpful description of a pantry if I had not known what was or what it was for. :-)

@Geist - She mentioned loving a good pantry and someone else thought she said panty, which lead to a discussion about using the word, lol, which, I personally DO use as a term for my undergarments as "underwear" seems like something my dad wears, not me, lol
Bob "Powers of Tesla" Lindley 2015-02-12T16:32:45-05:00
Got to admit. I'm a fan of both... depending on what is filling them.
Horror Junky - Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-02-12T16:33:03-05:00
Oh, sorry. I just assumed everyone knew what a pantry was. My family is from the south so it's pretty common to have a place to stock pile food for the winter. When I get my house, I will start canning summer food stuffs.

Horror Junky - Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-02-12T16:36:10-05:00
I visited my favorite pub last night and someone ordered the fish tacos. They looked delish. May have to have an order of them next time I stop by.
Horror Junky - Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-02-12T16:36:50-05:00

Marissa "Blondie" Brice 2015-02-12T16:39:09-05:00
@Geist - Hah, I do not, unless it's a very special occasion ;) lol, I have friends that wear them daily and I honestly have NO IDEA how they do it, it's just a constant wedgie!! NOT fun at all to me lol
Horror Junky - Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-02-12T16:39:33-05:00
@GM: I'm a bit allergic to shellfish. No crabs for (or on) me.
Horror Junky - Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-02-12T16:40:35-05:00
I couldn't have something in between my butt cheeks. I would be constantly tugging on my pants and that wouldn't look lovely at all.
Marie "Catness" C 2015-02-12T16:40:45-05:00
Blondie and Geist, I do social dancing, so I often wear thongs to that. Because you know what's less comfortable than something wedged up your butt? Full-sized underwear wedged up your butt.
@Geist: I can handle them(like touching them to cook/process them) but I cannot ingest them. That is when the allergy takes over and I end up possibly at the hospital(not sure since it's been roughly 12years since I've eaten fish).
@GM: Excellent... Cybitten, or cyboritten.... whichever he may prefer....
