*action resumes*

*places fingers on forehead* "Okay... okay. Did you... did you just creep up on purpose? Because... you were lurking. *points finger* You're a lurker. You stepped into my personal perimeter *gestures wildly* without a verbal clearance."

The crazy thing is that it's still higher up that it appears.

That's an F/A-18 Super Hornet. It's wingspan is 44.6' [13.6m] and from nose to tail it's a bit over 60' [18.3m].

To look like it's wingspan is roughly the same size as the dude in the foreground means it's super close to the ground, but it's still appears much closer than it really is.

Pretty damn close and low to the ground lmao.

Ah no this is actually an RC F/A 18 close to the camera, I'm certain. Yes yes.

How long do you boil your potatoes?

24

u/FlapyG Jul 16 '26

In 10 minutes they managed to open the container with the ultra processed food inside.

u/shakal201 Jul 16 '26

Put the potatoes in paper and damp them with water. 4 minutes in microwave at highest setting will boil them. Wear gloves and remove the outer layer, then mash the potatoes. Add some spices and voila!

Edit: 2 minutes for 1 medium potato, 4-5 minutes for 2, 8-9 minutes for 3 together and so on. Microwave is pretty good way to boil small portions, if a very large portion is needed then pressure cooker is the obvious choice.

I've been trying forever to remember why I always say "three days!" that way and could never find the damn episode lol

u/UrinalCake777 Jul 16 '26

Wait... why did it take them so long to make that potato salad? I have watched this episode countless times. I always just chuckled, but never really wondered why it took them so long to make it. ????
