Do it with glass-topped slow cookers, use overhead cams and split screen so you can see all of the dishes in progress, and just make it like Norwegian Slow TV. Every time a competitor comes over to open up and stir it’ll be like WHOA LOOK IT’S A DIFFERENT SHADE OF BROWN

also, in addition to the marinating show, the channel is also all about making your own seasoning powders starting from raw seeds

Also. This isn't a terrible idea. I've seen worse. There were neckbeard guys racing drones on a sports channel earlier. I didn't know that was a thing.

I've been in bed and wondered how my marinade looked.

what channel were the drone races on.

One of the Sky Sports channels

i've seen it on a freeview channel, the very bottom one, which was called something like transworld sport. i even set a series pass for it but ended up with the same episode repeated about 10 times...

ah, might've been this, https://www.freesports.tv/ click on wednesday...

(i've set the pvr for the drone racing and the polish speedway)

there's another freeview channel, 273 Sports Channel Network, which is a pay channel for connected tvs only (ie not mine) and that's showing about 6 hours of something called 'Drone GP' between 10pm and 6am tonight.

A cake baker who makes slightly amateurish cakes... so you can pretend you made it yourself when you present it to someone.

This is a very expandable business in fact – I would regularly give cash to an all-rounder who could make things to my specifications that were good but not too good and which I could pass off as my own.

You know those reaction videos on youtube? ‘I listen to _____ for the first time’. ‘Try not to laugh’ or ‘try not to smile challenge’. I could do those daily and be an emotionless blank face...

And I dont know if I’ve already mentioned it upthread but I always wanted to do a ‘teens react to getting punched in the face’ video. Like the old videos where young teens are shown one at a time testing out a VHS player or Apple II computer. Or watching Duck Tales for the first time.

“Do you know what this is?”
“Its a clenched fist”
“Do you know what people do with it?”
“They punch little shits in the face”

“Home Alone” but with a fantasy theme and the lead character is a dwarf.

“This is our treasure hold. I will defend it with my life.”

Cue all the awesome prebuilt dwarf traps and rated R brutality.

McDonald's should sell empty happy meal boxes, nugget boxes, etc. To parents of young picky eaters.

So you could make, like, healthy home-cooked food and put the food into the McD's packaging, and then the kids would eat it.
