As many of you have undoubtedly noticed, the new-look Batmobile for the upcoming prequel (yeah, yeah, but this one actually looks good) has been revealed.
On a totally unrelated note, since my full-time job ends this week, I went out for one last night of sushi, and decided I wanted to try live sweet shrimp. You don’t eat ‘em live; they cut off the heads and serve them.
I’ve had fresh raw shrimp before, but wanted to try eating something that was literally as freshly killed as can be. It wasn’t as good as I expected, possibly because these were a bigger kind than I’d had before.
But here’s the kicker: as a bonus, because I’m a regular there, they offered me one extra plate when I was done. On it were the deep-fried heads of my two executed shrimp. It is unbelievable how good these tasted. You deep fry anything long enough, it becomes good n’ crunchy.
Raw scallops are still da bomb though.
This horrifies me that you say “one last night of sushi”. I imagine you won’t want to be treating yourself too much for a little bit. But imagining a Luke without sushi, is like [insert something really horrible here]… shrimp heads, shrimp heads, roly poly shrimp heads… shrimp heads, shrimp heads, eat ‘em up… yum…
About the Batmobile… they should have gotten a tank and put some innertubes on it. Would saved money on general tackiness. haha Sad thing, is I’ll probably end up loving it later.
Naw, that Batmobile ROCKS.
i agree. looks like a car a highly intelligent urban warrior would use. quite practical. i am very excited about this batman feature. i’ve been arguing the dark knight route for years. merging year one with that mentality seems perfect. THOSE are THE batman stories.
on a side note, i was dark knight for halloween last year. my own kinda twist, of course. a very scary looking costume. looked just like a terrorist.
“I don’t care! You are not going trick-or-treating as a terrorist! er…I mean…uh…hippie!”
Yes, the lovely sweet shrimp heads, sadly, i’m a pussy so when they bring me the heads I pawn them off on my fellow table mates, who then end up picking pieces of shell out of their gums the rest of the meal. Good to know that if I go to sushi with you I will have a guinea pig for the fried heads.
