I'd choose the one on the left even though I'd be lying to myself.

Low self esteem...can't take those judgmental watchers.

I bet they're the ones getting the stupid ducks to roost on my driveway at night!

I'm sure they are. Dead people love ducks. Hence the term dead ducks.

Some of us are dead.

I love brains. Want some of my own.

Man was admitted to hospital with 23 plastic horses stuck
in his rectum. Doctors described his condition as stable.

Thank you for that winning laugh.

Wouldn't Aluminum be better than Iron Man?
He'd foil plans of the bad guys.

Wouldn't work anywhere else but America, the rest of the world knows how to spell.

ETA: And @Subduction Zone would put him in his scones and white sauce.

I was about to recommend a variation on that. It sounds as if you are well set. Good luck!

Chef John's Perfect Prime Rib

My stupid oven starts a fan when it gets turned off, I felt the breeze and fortunately it's on its own circuit so I turned it off at the meter box and that stopped it. Now it's a nervous 2 hour wait to see if I've burnt a $100 note.

Is this an Australian thing?

Dunno, we paid extra for a fancy oven when the old one died and I hate it. I wish we had just got an old fashioned one. I've ruined everything from turkeys to cakes in the new one.

That sux. Sometimes the old technology is still very good for what a person needs. My folks would go cheap on some things and then for no obvious reason would buy something like the top of the line microwave when all they did with it was heat water or reheat some food. But they cooked with an oven that was still in the house when my mother sold it 30 years later. It worked fine. I just wish I had had the foresight to copy some of her recipes.

I've worked out that fans have no place in ovens.

And now the Mrs is whinging that she's starving because she can smell the roast hehe

It might be a feature of newer ovens since I remember some sort of warning in the recipe that I linked.

That is a good sign. But if you are a steak lover I would seriously consider investing in a sous vide machine. Cook the meat to desired doneness and then sear. No resting the meat needed. Just sear and eat. When I made my prime ribs, ( I have done that twice) I did still wrap it in foil while I was preparing the au jus and all other final touches.
