Cooter Soup!

It’s that time of the year again! Springtember! That special time of year when it’s cold as fuck on Monday and temperate and balmy like the last scene of Silence of the Lambs on Tuesday. Why the fuck?? Global fucking warming is why! Nothing we can do about it except ride it out at this point. Thanks, Exxon and other cunts! Celebrate one of the last Wintertembers ever with a delicious dollop of Cooter Soup! If you want to go all out, spread it out on a hot, split biscuit, and lap it up like your “outside” dog drinks water in the middle of August, all sloppy and blarlrbblarlaaa. You’ll thank me later. This ain’t your grandma’s cooter soup!

YOU WILL NEED

  • 1 8 pound bag of pheasant beaks

  • 1/2 tablespoon tingly feeling in your middle finger for the rest of your life because you got up from the floor wrong and something went ZZZDDTT!! inside your hand. You even heard it. It sounded like a mouse gasping or smacking its little mouse knee

  • 3 cabbages, quartered

  • 3 cabbages, nickeled

  • that one dude from the bus’s disgusting, smelly hat that he forgot on the bus, and you took it home, and now you can’t go to sleep at night without sniffing it and sometimes masturbating into it

  • 2 tsp granulated sugar

  • 2 tsp solid block sugar in the shape of dead character actor Steve Buscemi

  • 1/4 ton red bud tree flowers, half dollared

  • a burlap sack full of assorted drifter parts

  • Marmaduke

instructions

  1. Preheat oven to the temperature of Will Smith’s Twitter feed right now. For those of you reading this from the future… First, how fucked is everybody? and second, Will Smith was an American actor whose career peaked when he slapped a comedian in the face in front of literally the whole world. It was kinda nuts. Also, stop cooking your future bullshit and make my recipes.

  2. Dust the cinnamon over the nuclear carp paste liberally — but evenly. There is nothing quite like the taste of uneven cinnamon sprinkled on irradiated fish paste. Oh wait, I just reminded myself about Fukushima. Now I’m fucking depressed. Well done.

  3. When the radishes have successfully radished, remove them from the radisher. You’ll know if they radished for long enough if they’re emitting a slightly radishy aroma, but not too radishy. It’s hard to explain. It would be like if your pumpkin were getting too pumpkiny, so you had to take them out of the pumpkiner, if that makes sense.

  4. Count backwards from 98,401 and then ka-pow! That shit is done with! Time for this other shit now.

  5. Begin other shit, confident that the shit from before is for real done.

  6. When the oven is hot like a goddamned motherfucker, insert tarragon bundles, dragon fruit, and 2 foot brick of D batteries. Immediately turn oven down to oops I just put a bunch of D batteries in my oven and slow roast until you wake up in a hospital bed.

  7. Now it the time to make your wolf meringue. It’s a simple process, don’t be scared! Simply whisk 2 – 4 adult wolves in a large pyrex bowl until they are uniformly fluffy, light, and meringue. That last part is key. They have to end up as meringue or else you didn’t make wolf meringue at all. You made 2 – 4 slightly confused wolves murder you.

  8. When the oven dings, scream THANK FUCKING GOD FOR DINGING OR ELSE WE WOULDN’T KNOW WHEN FOOD WAS READY into your neighbor’s face. If your neighbor isn’t in your kitchen at the moment, do it next time they are. They’ll get a chuckle out of it.

  9. I got to 9 steps??? You should definitely stop reading this.

Sprinkle with conjoined twins to taste. Serves 2 – 4 tsars (5-7 czars) Do not attempt to make.

Pumpkin Spiced Jizzaccino!

It’s that time of the year again! Cockcockcockandmorecocktember! That special time of year when no matter how many dicks you stuff in yourself, there’s always room for one more. [sighs to self wistfully] This time of year is a wonderful time to reflect on a long, brutally hot summer, to feel gladness at the cool autumn days to come, and to look forward to a relaxing season of sweaters, fall foliage, and that special seasonal treat: pumpkin spiced jizzaccino! As the name implies, they are physics-defyingly hard clumps of wax and metal shavings deep fried in an iron skillet until chocolate brown like the real Jesus’s middle eastern ball sack. Free range? Locally sourced? Who are you, the fucking Pope? Ha ha ha ha ha… No. You’re an easily distractible masochistic intent on finishing this sentence. Okie doke, you! This ain’t your grandma’s Pumpkin Spiced Jizzaccino!

YOU WILL NEED

  • 14 lbs of some goddamned shit

  • an omnibus

  • 1/2 cup dill raisins

  • 1/67 loaf pumpernickel bread

  • that Clippy motherfucker who always tried to help you write a resume

  • a spongecake

  • a granitecake

  • 1 tbsp green skittles that have passed through the digestive tract of Betty White

  • $20 bitcoin (if bitcoin is unavailable due to it not existing, you can substitute with scabs. A handy metric to remember: for every $1 of bitcoin, replace with 90,000 fresh, wet scabs)

  • one pinch of timeliness

  • 1 cup of Kraft’s the feeling when you’re just about to send your 5-year-old to kindergarten, thus freeing up 35 hours every week for yourself and your career, but then a bunch of backwards hat wearing fuckheads refuse to take a miracle vaccine during a once in a century pandemic, and now you have to keep your kid home at least six more months instead. (If your local Kroger doesn’t carry Kraft’s the feeling when you’re just about to send your 5-year-old to kindergarten, thus freeing up 35 hours every week for yourself and your career, but then a bunch of backwards hat wearing fuckheads refuse to take a miracle vaccine during a once in a century pandemic, and now you have to keep your kid home at least six more months instead, it’s ok to substitute with yourself screaming “Gaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!” for two hours and then saying, “Fuck it. Fuck everything,” and going to get high.

  • 2 fluid ounces

  • 1/2 ripe aardvark

instructions

  1. Preheat oven to the temperature of snuggling into Henry Cavill’s chin dimple and then falling asleep purring

  2. De-orange all of that shit. Start with THAT.

  3. Puree grapes until they are pureed. If you have to set a timer, set it to alert you at a specific time. (You never want to over-puree grapes. If you have to ask why, you’re being an asshole.)

  4. In a separate Meg Ryan’s mouth, blend dill raisins, and gently fold in granitecake until Meg Ryan is done with you doing that.

  5. Scoop all of that into a 9 × 10⁴⁷ oz pyrex bowl, and bake at Henry Cavill’s whatever I wrote for 30 minutes.

  6. While baking, do not rub nipples. That’s not really appropriate behavior in the kitchen. Go to the library and rub your nipples. Not a room in your house you call the library because all of your 15 books you own are in there, the public library. Walk in, and breathe heavily into the librarian’s face, and rasp at them, “Where is a good spot for me to rub my nipples? You know, somewhere kinda private so I don’t freak anyone out.”

  7. Postheat oven to the temperature of Henry Cavill will die never knowing your name. Remove whatever it was I told you to make, Pus Muffins? I don’t know what the hell my brain is doing ever.

Sprinkle with six packs of tube socks to taste. Serves our corporate master, all hail capitalism. Do not attempt to make.

Quantum Gravy!

It’s that time of the year again! Gravydroughtpril! That time of the year where everybody notices all of the sudden that there ain’t no damned gravy anywhere! Don’t be caught with dry food such as baked chicken or Saharan wood ash biscuits (recipe to come). When life gives you dry dinner, it’s time to whup up a batch of grandma’s quantum gravy. What makes it quantum? The fact that it’s so fucking small? Maybe. Or is it because I pulled this recipe title out of my asshole? Only grandma knows for sure. Also, please tell your grandma to stay out of my ass. She keeps leaving the remote in there, and every time I fart my tv switches over to Storage Wars. This ain’t your grandma’s quantum gravy!

YOU WILL NEED

  • A 20 count fun-pack of fleet enemas

  • 6 yards of virgin corduroy fabric

  • 2 cups lime sherbet (If the store doesn’t carry sherbet, it’s ok to substitute with sherbert, but you may notice the unmistakable flavor of superfluous letters. You can correct for this with a pinch of suicide, but I don’t recommend it. Go to another store that values your existence.)

  • 1 1/2 tbsp clown vapor

  • 3 pounds Peruvian capybara fur (Please note that shearing a Peruvian capybara is not for the uninitiated. Many first-timers lose 8-9 fingers in the process. Take caution, and be wary for angry capybaras growling in broken Spanish, “God damn all your fucking fingers, you white devil. I’m going to eat them until I’ve shit both your hands!” It’s a good idea to know Spanish and not be white, as 99% of capybaras are discriminatory against Europeans.)

  • 1 sumbitch

  • 1 10 oz package of Betty Crocker No-Bake Butterscotch and Chipotle Cookie Mix

  • 12 lbs

instructions

  1. Preheat oven to impossible

  2. In a separate bowl, place Ayn Rand’s ashes, and gently fold in out-of-touch white hypocrisy until Rand is objectively deader than fuck.

  3. While the rotisserie chicken is spitting hot juices all over the inside of the oven, dice dove hearts

  4. Pour package of Betty Crocker No-Bake Butterscotch and Chipotle Cookie Mix into a 90,000,000,000,000,000 oz Pyrex bowl. Remove all butterscotch chips and set aside for later use.

  5. It’s later now, so shove those butterscotch chips all the way up your ass. Every last butterscotch. Up your ass.

  6. Shake small vial of clown vapor vigorously for 20 hours.

  7. After oven has successfully… you know… hotted… put all that stuff in there and bake at hot for length of time. Don’t set a timer unless you’re a chickenshit bitchface, and then I guess set two?

  8. When your flaccid, ineffectual, self-second-guessing timer(s) ding, get that shit out of there! It’s hot, you idiot.

Sprinkle with two gallons of skunk musk to taste. Serves some. Do not attempt to make.

Twice brandied roofing nail surprise!

It’s that time of the year again! Nowsünownow! It’s the perfect time to whup up a warm, cheesy batch of Twice Brandied Roofing Nail Surprise. (The surprise is a sudden gush of bloody mucus from a mouthful of roofing nails piercing your sinuses!) If excruciating oral pain isn’t your thing, you could tweak the recipe to suit your needs as a person with a soft, weak mouth. No matter how you prepare it, though, Twice Brandied Roofing Nail Surprise is a recipe for almost everyone, if ‘almost everyone’ means unfussy eaters who don’t mind their meal nailing their tongue to the inside of their throat pouch.

YOU WILL NEED

[Dry Ingredients]

  • 2 quarts powdered duck back

  • 5 fucked cauliflower heads (As the moniker suggests, these are cauliflower heads that have had a hole drilled in them and then fucked real good.)

  • 4 tooble mints

  • 95,000 herrings

  • squaziklemmen

  • 1/2 tsp of the feeling you get when someone who could just send a text calls instead

  • 2 tsp Squidward’s surly attitude

  • A pinch of fuck this shit

  • 1 chunks

  • A bowl of scrambled monkeys

  • Pentathlon

[Wet Ingredients]

  • 2 gallons latex paint in a color named after an extinct flower such as ‘tyrannosaurus lilac’ or ‘dodo tulip’

  • 2 tbsp cat juice

  • 1 tsp Lawrence O’Donnell‘s flop sweat

  • 1 cup mixture

  • 1 level tsp of boiling rage upon learning that some asshole neural network stole your 25+ year old bit

  • 4 even, controlled sprays from an expired can of Lysol

instructions

  1. Preheat oven to Mayim Bialik’s daydream of a good man.

  2. Open hi-hat, gently insert shark brains.

  3. In a separate shark brains, whisk cat juice until the tines of the whisk sing in broken Welsh.

  4. When the oven is pre-heated, toss gently into the heart of the sun.

  5. Combine Squidward’s surly attitude, boiling rage at neural network thinking it understands funny, and scrambled monkeys in a microwave-is-gonna-do-what-microwave-is-gonna-do bowl and stir until stirred.

  6. When oven is in sun’s heart, preheat again to the temperature of a Mayim Bialik fever dream of the time she lost her car keys at Sea World.

  7. Set pentathlon aside to de-athlon.

  8. Remember the Maine, but forget the reason why you’re remembering it because what are you a 19th century textbook?

  9. After the chocolate mixture has cooled, ladle it in even scoops onto a pre-greased (I recommend Pennzoil) baking sheet, and set aside to quartz. (Helpful hint: quartzing chocolate on a baking sheet lined with Pennzoil is a difficult task for beginner chefs, so don’t be disheartened if yours tastes like chocolate mixed with motor oil. You’ll get better with time.)

  10. Remove the dish from oven, and while still boiling hot, mush your face into it, but — and this is key — try to act surprised at the searing pain of your face igniting in a culinary inferno. The surprise awakens certain flavors, namely cinnamon and AHHHHH GODDAMMIT!!!!

Sprinkle with Ugnauts to taste. Serves 15 – 18 moderately hungry dolphins. Do not attempt to make.

honey glazed surgery scraps brownies!

It’s that time of the year again, Whyisaarondoingthisuary! It’s that special time of the year when we ask ourselves as a nation, “Wait… Is Aaron just going to keep writing these mentally deranged and idiotic ‘recipes’ until he’s dead??” [A very hearty yes, America.] Why not celebrate this Whyisaarondoingthisuary by whupping up a fresh batch of Honey Glazed Surgery Scraps Brownies! Watch with glee as your family gets three chews into one of these scrumptious num nums, and feel a sense of pride when the color drains from their faces as they confront the hard truth that they are now cannibals. These brownies are gluten free, low sugar, and about as delicious as a brownie full of human meat can be. These ain’t yo granny’s honey glazed surgery scraps brownies!*

YOU WILL NEED

  • 1 gallon tarragon

  • 3 green onions, cut the fuck up (and I mean cut THE FUCK up)

  • 1 8-foot-long, solid lead novelty submarine

  • 2 tbsp powdered Chernobyl ‘elephant foot’ (If your store doesn’t carry powdered Chernobyl ‘elephant foot,’ you can substitute with with a CD copy of Enya’s The Memory of Trees.)

  • 1 cup un-programmed pixels from the failed Baby Pac Man franchise

  • 1 1/2 cups leftover tinkles from Bjork’s Vespertine

  • An imaginary chainsaw that has a silencer on it so you can fell trees in relative tranquility

  • Google Glass

  • 1 sprig of pig mint (If pig mint is rare in your area, stop binge-watching Friends. That show was never funny — not even once, not even accidentally — and it was creepy and weird.)

  • A light dusting of 6,000 metric tons of cadmium

instructions

  1. Preheat oven to ‘Randy Quaid’ sex tape

  2. In a separate bowl, mince Vespertine tinkles until the lyrical content begins to make you feel… uncomfortable

  3. In an unrelated Björk, gently fold in powdered Chernobyl ’elephant foot.’ Be very careful not to over fold due to maximum possible radiation content. Wear goggles!

  4. Spin counterclockwise at 18,000 rpm for 45 minutes (or until uncontrollably projectile vomiting) and then immediately try to run in a straight line

  5. Remove the goose from the oven and baste with repeated throat punches

  6. When the over has reached Randy Quaid hotness (or approximately -20,000 K), stir mixture until it thickens to the same viscosity of the center of a neutron star, but no thicker!

  7. Milk iguanas until they fall asleep purring

  8. Mold a papier-mâché bust of Copernicus but make him frowning angrily as though he is late for an important meeting and someone fed his car keys to a goat.

  9. In a separate hollowed-out human cadaver, whisk hibiscus flowers until they “bloom.” (In culinary speak, when flowers are whisked for baking preparation, they take on a very light, wispy shape that chefs call “blooming.” The texture is not unlike octopus ejaculate.)

  10. When all ingredients have—whoops recipe done, my doctor just walked in.

Sprinkle with candied rooster testicles to taste. Serves 275. Do not attempt to make.

*Unless your granny baked human flesh into her desserts

Antler Oatmeal!

It’s that time of year again: morning! It’s the perfect time to enjoy the Canadian breakfast treat, antler oatmeal. This classic breakfast side dish was conceived at a time when early Canadians were trapped inside a snowy cabin for many weeks, and had to resort to eating their reindeer’s antlers for sustenance. (Legend has it that they didn’t eat the reindeer themselves because they enjoyed fucking them too much, but this is conjecture at best.) No matter how you prepare it, whether it’s in your kitchen on a snowy morn or while running down the street on fire and screaming, antler oatmeal is sure to please.*

YOU WILL NEED

  • 1/2 cup Magna Carta paste (either regular or zesty)

  • 2 lbs albino snake meat

  • 3 tbsp model airplane propeller

  • 1 jar Jif peanut butter (if Jif is unavailable, you can substitute with Gif peanut butter, but you will notice the subtle taste of people telling you how to pronounce shit)

  • 47 big rails of tungsten

  • 2 cups Wayne’s World 2 on laser disc

instructions

  1. Preheat oven to room temperature

  2. In a separate bowl, unsnap pelican beaks. Be sure to discard any still-attached pelicans.

  3. When the morning sun casts a glimmering light on the promise of a new day, whisk a bowl of kittens until no longer purring. You don’t want to over-whisk, as this can lead to a bowl full of very confused kittens.

  4. Gently knead snake meat until hard as a rock, and then immediately stop kneading snake meat because that wasn’t what you were trying to do.

  5. When the Adirondacks have successfully mountained, gently spoon into a 9000 oz Pyrex bowl. (If the kids ask to lick the spoon, shriek out in sudden terror because where did these kids come from??)

  6. During the Bronze Age, lightly fold kittens.

  7. When the oven has dinged, it’s time to do a little dance for the planet Saturn. (This is where those 47 rails of tungsten come in handy!)

  8. Set aside to cool for 2 months and 8 days. Be weary of hungry neighbors smelling this cooling on your windowsill. Sometimes hungry neighbors are also murderers.

Serves 12 angry gnus. (16 angry wildebeests.) Do not attempt to make.

*(Your gastroenterologist. Because of all the money you’ll be giving them. To remove antlers from your stomach and small intestines.)

Existential Dread Patties!

It’s that time of year again: Reflectuary. That time of year when I think about my life. Sitting here, drinking corporate supply chain coffee, wearing corporate supply chain clothes, typing on a shiny machine made from rare earth minerals and human misery, it’s impossible to feel as though individuality matters. Lucky am I to be here, undoubtedly, and fortunate am I to have the basics of 21st century comfort at my fingertips — literally. I daymare about the future and beyond. I wonder what my next life will be like. Reincarnation is a certainty, in that human consciousness is universally shared Individuality is a psychosis we teach our children so we can get by, high on the feeling that life has a purpose. In reality, we are all awake in each other’s minds, even though we somehow feel isolated from them, and our most selfish pursuits are mere distractions. So, as the last rays of light dim from this life, and the last sounds bubble away, we are suddenly in utero with a feeling of confusion and deep, unsettled, generational depression. We are born into a new home, a new life, each with untold horrors awaiting, and we feel as separate and alone as it is possible to feel. There is no end. There is only this infinite cycle of desperation and despair.

YOU WILL NEED

  • 6-7 hours of restless sleep full of stress dreams about moving back to Illinois

  • 2 cups Kona Blend medium roast coffee (I like to add a little oat milk and stevia/monkfruit to each cup because the future turned out weird.)

  • A sense of regret that feels not unlike like large, mournful chunks of your soul slowly sloughing off your back into a drain in a concrete floor

  • 1 (one) teensy weensy toke from the morning pipe, just enough to tamp those stress dreams back down into your subconscious until tonight. (If you do not have a teeny weeny toke available, you may substitute for extra coffee or angel dust.)

  • 1 tsp all purpose hope

instructions

  1. Preheat oven to the emotional cocktail of sadness and relief when you skip all your high school reunions.

  2. In a separate bowl, mix wisdom-originated aloofness and quiet yearning to self immolate while in line at the bank.

  3. Stir everything until homogenous as all fuck.

  4. Bake for 80-90 years until CHF or dementia (or both) have forced your adult children to handle all your toileting. (If you’re doing it right, you will feel a mixture of shame and uncontrollable primal humor.)

  5. While baking, it is fine to pass the time on activities such as jobs, school, and pornography, but be aware that there is no meaning in any activities except birth, survival, procreation, and death. (Achieving things is fine, so long as you remember that doing so is pointless!)

  6. Die.

  7. Be remembered for a few years, and then shortly afterwards be forgotten forever. When the last person thinks about you for the last time, your memory will dissolve into a bottomless ocean of time, as the universe dissipates into thermodynamic equilibrium.

Sprinkle with cinnamon buns to taste. Serves everyone. Do not attempt to make.

pan seared twat hominy!

It’s that time of the year again! Wearefuckedtember! It’s that magical time of the year when a pandemic finally reveals its true killing stroke, fucking idiots. These intellectual turnips are running around, refusing a vaccine during a once-in-a-century fucking pandemic! I mean, holy fucking fuck with that shit! Why not celebrate this Wearefuckedtember season by gathering the family together, and enjoying a steaming plate of Pan Seared Twat Hominy! I mean, what else are you gonna do? Go to work?? Who the fuck wants to do that?? Yes, hello, can I sell my entire life for $10/hour and no benefits or retirement? Where do I sign up?? If you serve your family Pan Seared Twat Hominy, and they whine, “Ewwww! What is this??” Tell them, “It’s Pan Seared Twat Hominy, you complaining little shits.” And then put on a sombrero covered in gold sequins because fuck it! Why not? There’s an outfit for every season, especially Wearefuckedtember! This ain’t your grandma’s Pan Seared Twat Hominy!

YOU WILL NEED

  • 1 dramatically large sack of unbleached flour

  • 2 cups honey mayonnaise

  • 1/64 dram of pineapple extract, de-extracted

  • side A from Stevie Wonder’s Innervisions on vinyl (If you are unable to locate side A of Stevie Wonder’s Innervisions without side B already attached, which can theoretically happen, a simple trick is to run the vinyl record on its side through a table saw, and cut the two sides apart manually. Having difficulty holding the fragile record steady with all the vibrating from the table saw? Hold it between your teeth, BUT be careful not to saw your face in half. Timing is key here.)

  • 2 cherry life savers

  • 2 cherry life destroyers

  • 1/2 tsp of the incalculable weight of generations of religious indoctrination collapsing on itself, boiling down to a putrid tincture of judgement, bitterness, and denial that spits like venom from the serpentine lips of a functionally illiterate electorate that holds the future of humanity in its misinformed hands

  • 1 40-pack of Lady Speed Stick, Jasmine Nights Scent

instructions

  1. Preheat oven to Jesus fucking CHRIST already!!!!!! I mean FUUUUCK! Get it together, man!!

  2. In a separate Laura Dern’s glove compartment at 3:00 a.m., place finely chopped mushrooms in a houndstooth pattern. Don’t forget to seal the glove compartment and then repeatedly honk the horn while yelling, “Enjoy the fucking mushrooms, Laura Dern!!! You fuck!!!

  3. Set aside fart meringue for 15 minutes to dehisce.

  4. After the yeast mixture has bloomed, take a second to remember that one Fiona Apple album title that was 9,000 words. What in the fuck was that all about??

  5. Once the aluminum pellets have heated to room temperature, remove them from the I left off here days ago and don’t remember what I was going to say, so Teddy Ruxpin’s ass?

  6. After all this shit is done doing what the fuck it’s gonna do, stop and ask yourself why you are still reading this recipe? I mean, I have to type this stuff or it’ll fester in my brain and burn holes in my psyche, but you don’t have to be doing any of this. Go outside and pet a flower or whatever outdoorsy types do.

  7. Set aside entire mixture to cool. As it settles into a congealed brick, relax into a deep sense of accomplishment. You goddamned did it.

  8. Locate the little man in boat and scold him for hiding all the time. What is his deal???

Sprinkle with revenge emails to taste. Serves a fucking fuckton of people. Do not attempt to make.

coronal mass ejection biscuits!

It’s that time of year again, Yearuary! It’s the perfect time to put the kids to bed early, crack open a case of bubbling liquid, and destroy most of the inner solar system with a warm, oven-fresh batch of Coronal Mass Ejection biscuits. They may seems impossible to make, but history has proven that all things preceded this sentence. Except this phrase. And THAT is the power of words, fellow gourmands. Do not be afraid to conflate your personal vocabulary with a copy of the Bagavad Gita that’s been run through a wood chipper. Even Einstein masturbated into his own socks, right? No matter how you prepare them, Coronal Mass Ejection biscuits will definitely sublimate your face!

YOU WILL NEED

  • 2 tbsp tie thingies what keep bothering your neck

  • 1 oz ox

  • A plastic figurine of Pope John whatever (the 90th? I can’t keep track of all the fucking popes. What am I Wikipedia?)

  • A few Larrys

  • Sonic Youth’s unreleased album, Fart Surgeon

  • A guy who’s all business

  • 10 marchino cherries

  • 10 marchino tiger shark penises

  • 10 marachino Ralph Macchios

  • 10 more marachino cherries

  • 1 1973 Tele custom with an original Bigsby tailpiece

  • 1/2 ton oak pulp

instructions

  1. Preheat oven to Marmaduke’s ass

  2. In a separate bowl, place tie thingies and everything marachino, mixing briskly. (Set aside air that was in the bowl for later use.)

  3. While the oven is preheating, Google Marmaduke. Feel a pang of disgust at realizing I was writing about a dog’s butt. It is something I do often. Know this. Count on it.

  4. Scramble Larrys until Larrys are evenly distributed in the thing you were scrambling them in. A beaver den?

  5. Unscrew chin from face and place in a Pyrex bowl (size of Pyrex bowl is unimportant, so long as it’s at least 140,000,000 oz). Notice the large, flashing, red button under the spot on your head that your unscrewed chin was covering. Press it. What’s the worst that can happen?

  6. Stand chinless in your kitchen and ponder the intricacies of modern cuisine. Give a slight, but knowing chuckle. Notice that without a chin, the chuckle sounds like, “Aaa aaa aaaaaaa.”

  7. When the oven is done doing whatever it’s been programmed to do, point at it and scream: “FUCK YOUR FREE WILL, OVEN!!! You are nothing!!!”

  8. Rake up all that shit, you idiot.

Sprinkle with Chernobyl to taste. Serves those who believe without verifying. Do not attempt to make.

Ground Up Robin Eggs in an Eggshell and Baby Bird Corpse Reduction
!

Valentine’s Day is right around the corner, loser. This year, don’t sit at home repeatedly masturbating until you ejaculate tiny little puffs of air. It’s 2020, a whole new decade for you to fail in! Get out there and meet that special someone, and when you do, bring them back to your place, and prepare this artisanal dish for them over candlelight, and while huffing gasoline out of a MAGA hat. If they don’t grant you all-access, backstage passes to their no-no parts after dining on this delicacy, then you are probably unspeakably ugly. Also the MAGA hat probably isn’t helping. Just sayin’.

YOU WILL NEED

  • 1 recently made bag of dumplings (the bag must be fresh, the dumplings can be from whenever)

  • 1 level cup of narwhal tusk

  • 1 poster of a kitten hanging from a tree branch, and the kitten is saying “AAHHHH!! OH, GOD! OH, GOD! AHHHAHHHH!!!! HELP MEEE!!!!” in cute bubble letters

  • James Cameron’s urethra (If James Cameron’s urethra is unavailable, you can substitute with aardvark assholes.* This recipe requires one tablespoon of aardvark assholes, but in America they only sell aardvark assholes in 40 pound bags for whatever reason. Pro tip: Check the European aardvark asshole market. I have occasionally been able to buy aardvark assholes in what are known as 25-deciliter “Continental Tubs.” They’re perfect, they last forever, and the packaging is adorable. It has a picture of a cartoon aardvark wearing a little beret, standing by the Eiffel Tower, and his taint is gushing blood because some poacher stabbed off his asshole.

instructions

  1. Preheat oven to There-Is-No-God

  2. Prepare tacos in a pewter bedpan, making sure to grind the cornmeal until the atoms deteriorate and neutrinos fly at your face at the speed of light. Pause and ask yourself, “Why am I making tacos?”

  3. In another oven, place oven.

Sprinkle with irradiated moose antler to taste. Serves 2-900. Do not attempt to make.

**Diabetics, aardvark assholes are high glycemic foods. James Cameron’s urethra is low glycemic. FYI.

Whooooaaa, Motherfucker, Whoa à la King!

It’s that time of year again, June. That time of year when it’s fucking June. Why not celebrate this year by setting your face on fire with a welding torch? And when the cartilage in your nose has cooled down to a crisp 400°, you will want to enjoy a summer treat! Whooooaaa, Motherfucker, Whoa à la King is an old Sarlo family recipe that pre-dates the cooling of the earth. Somehow, this recipe has stood the test of time — even though no one knows what the fuck it is, and when you finally do succeed in making a batch of Whooooaaa, Motherfucker, Whoa à la King, you have inadvertently sterilized your entire family due to the 50 pounds of plutonium that is required for the dough to rise. Mondays!… Am I right?

YOU WILL NEED

[Dry Ingredients]

  • 50 pounds of plutonium

  • a copy of the Magna Carta autographed by Will Smith

  • 18 baby teeth from the revolutionary war (if you can’t find revolutionary war baby teeth, you can substitute baby teeth from any just war)

  • 2 quarts brewers staples

  • 1/2 tsp ghost secrets

  • an umbrella you have named Mr. Toffeebottom

  • some goddamn shit

[Wet Ingredients]

  • goafer plasma

  • the Caspian Sea

  • 2 tbsp whale semen (if you can’t obtain whale semen, wear something sexier. try laughing at its jokes.)

  • slüüüüüünk

instructions

  1. In a tuba, mix 40 lbs plutonium and ghost secrets. (Set aside extra 10 lbs plutonium for garnish.) Stir with bare hands, as sparks from metal utensils may ignite the tuba’s brass shell, instantly melting everything within a 10 mile radius

  2. Find a group of school children (preferably happy), walk up to them and yank your own head off. Do your best to lob your own decapitated head at them. Extra points if you can make your head cackle like a cartoon witch.

  3. Preheat oven to NOOOOOOOOO° F (YEEEEEEESSS° C). Soon as you hear ghost secrets bubbling forth from the tuba-plutonium mixture (I murdered a guy once… I never got to go to Paris…, etc), pour all ingredients into a 20 gallon pyrex baking dish, and turn oven down to nooo° F (yeess° C)

  4. When slüüüüüünk has successfully narfed, set aside in wooden bowl. Use a wooden bowl to avoid over-narfing, as over-narfing can lead to ppfffarrrnnnarrrnarrr, which, of course, is toxic

  5. Stare at your reflection in a head of lettuce you have buffed into a makeshift mirror. Notice the daily withering of your once supple young flesh, and quietly grieve by eating an entire box of Ho Ho’s, for you are truly suffering.

  6. When oven dings, say to yourself, “WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT??”

Sprinkle with pumpkins to taste. Serves Ron Howard’s as-yet-undiscovered conjoined twin that’s attached to one of his kidneys. Do not attempt to make.

puppy loaf!

It’s that time of year again, right now, the perfect time to get a basket of puppies drunk and then have them lick your puffy genitals until you explode like one of Elon Musk’s weird rockets. He named his kid after the sound dial-up Internet makes. That’s pretty fun. Also fun? Eating a fresh batch of delicious Puppy Loaf, a dish which might sound off-putting at first, but is actually nothing more than a savory treat made from seasoned ground puppy beef squeezed into a loaf. An American tweak on the seasonal German dish, Slotterpöoch, Puppy Loaf is so scrumptiously nightmare-inducing it’s sure to have your finicky kids weeping salty tears of parental betrayal and vomiting wet balls of half-digested puppy for days!

YOU WILL NEED

  • a bag of puppies, preferably adorable

  • 2 fluid ounces of liquid

  • Oinklahoma

  • 10 cords of petrified pine (if you can’t find petrified pine because of the pandemic, inject 500 cc’s of bleach into your dick vein. Or don’t. Whichever. But, if you do inject bleach into your dick vein, be sure to be facing Mecca.)

  • 1/2 cup chipotle celery

  • a bucket of something really, really special

  • an a cappella rendition of the theme from Inception, which you will soon realize is just people singing “BWWWWOOOOOMMMMMMMM”

  • 1/4 tsp turmeric plasma

  • 3 shipping containers of cherry tomatoes

  • Winona Ryder that one time when she was at some award show or something and she looked all wigged out

  • 2 tbsp fuck weevils

  • Idahoink (If you can’t find Idahoink, DO NOT substitute with the similarly named Idaho Inc., as that is where white people are made, and you definitely don’t fucking want any of that.)

  • them other shits

instructions

  1. Preheat oven to Are we doing this again?

  2. Carefully, CAREFULLY separate puppies into two bowls labeled “cuddlin’ puppies” and “eatin’ puppies.” When all puppies are separated into bowls, brutally and repeatedly punch the bowl marked “cuddlin’ puppies” because your dad didn’t love you. How could he? Look at how you treat puppies.

  3. In a pre-designated chamber of magma, sprinkle chipotle celery, but be on the lookout for any errant bad stalks and pieces. You can tell that celery has gone bad because it has turned into a gray paste with a very unpleasant taste that can make you vomit for 72 hours straight if you mistakenly eat four large bowls of it the other day.

  4. When oven is preheated to Jesus… Fuuck… Ok, let’s do this again I guess??, place award show addled Winona Ryder near it, and tell her the oven is a robotic vulture sent from the future to peck out her eyes. See if that closes them a little so she doesn’t look so wigged out. Say it genially to her, not threateningly. She’ll get it.

  5. Open 92 umbrellas of varying colors and sizes upside down and scoop Oinklahoma into them — BUT do it nice. ……………………….. Nice, you fuck.

  6. When your throat pouch has turned iridescent, it’s time to find a mate! (If you can’t find a mate, try being someone else.) Once you find your potential mate, be sure to wow him or her with a bawdy display of shitting yourself again and again while screaming at the top of your lungs, and lunging at them very, very violently.

Sprinkle with bat dicks to taste. Serves a fucking FUCK TON OF PEOPLE. Like, maybe more people than you can feasibly imagine. Do not attempt to make.

Whorebaby Surprise!

It’s that time of the year again — Garfielduary, that special time of year when all thoughts turn to gigantic, overrated orange cats from 90 years ago. Why not celebrate this Garfielduary season with an old fashioned Garfielduary recipe straight out of the Garfielduary playbook, namely a delicious batch of Whorebaby Surprise. The traditional dish was named in a simpler time when babies who sold their soul for money were the subject of ridicule. Nowadays, it’s impolite to use the word “whore,” and babies are not only openly encouraged to sell their souls for money, but are worshipped as “influencers” in our society. Whorebaby Surprise is known for its minty, burning plasticy aroma when baking, and its sharp, bloody, pond-mud-ish flavor. It may not sound very appetizing, but Whorebaby Surprise is not. Like Duran Duran Fruit, Whorebaby Surprise is a dish only for the refined gourmand’s pallet. Not yours, you unsophisticated fuck. Somebody else’s pallet. You fuck.

YOU WILL NEED

  • A braille script from the 2019 Netfilx film Roma

  • 2 tsp Florence from The Jeffersons

  • 2 cups Bruce Hornsby and The Range DNA (if you can’t find Bruce Hornsby and The Range DNA, how hard are you looking??)

  • 5 cups flour

  • 5 cups anti-flour

  • A big blue knife with tiny pictures of fish on the blade

  • 1/4 ton alfalfa yogurt

instructions

  1. Preheat oven to WOW!!… Wow. Just…. wow.

  2. Puree spaniel meat

  3. In a separate bowl, dice braille script until it’s a totally different script, like maybe the script from Arrival. Remember Arrival? Oof. What a snooze fest. Oh, time is circular? So is my asshole.

  4. Set aside personal emotional indifference to further chill

  5. Unpack tentacles from oblong box and allow 30 minutes to figure out why you have a box of tentacles

  6. Roll eyes back into own head until you can see your medulla oblongata. Say to it, “Hi Dooley!”

  7. Be sure not to read this recipe at all. AT ALL.

  8. When the oven dings, there may be a good reason for that. Find out why.

Sprinkle with Fox News clips that aged poorly to taste. Serves 900,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000. Do not attempt to make.

Meconium Tarts!

It’s that time of the year again! Fuckitscolduary! It’s the perfect time to snuggle up by a large rock, and eat a picnic basket full of Meconium Tarts! Like the name suggests, they are tarts. If your spouse, significant other, or security blanket you “legally” married because you “repeatedly fucked it,” tries to tell you that these aren’t tarts, well, you just roll them up in a furious ball and throw them down the laundry chute like the semen-crusted life partner they are. Who the fuck are they to tell you what or what is not a tart?? And, not to bury the lede, these Meconium Tarts bare the namesake of 80’s rockers, Meconium, whose chart-topping, smash-hit single, “Pre-natal Mucus Diarrhea,” inspired a nation to shit inside themselves until their dreams came true. Point is: You are a failure at everything. so why not start a YouTube channel?

YOU WILL NEED

  • 7,600 “pre-born” babies, in utero. If you can’t find babies in utero, in brine will do.

  • A book about witchcraft or origami. Either works because they’re both terrifying.

  • 1/2 cup neutron star, de-neutroned

  • 1 Lg (2400 oz) hemisphere of ramen noodles

  • A pan of baked ziti (If baked ziti is out of season, you may substitute steamed ziti — but remember: it will be soft and weird.)

  • 1 tsp powdered flakes

  • 1 cup secretary bird face

  • 2 cups Lincoln, Nebraska (de-Nebraskaed)

  • A forty pound tuna with an onion jammed up its ass

  • A sleeve of unitary executive theory

instructions

  1. Preheat oven to the temperature of kitten nightmares

  2. In a bowl shaped like Rhode Island, gently mash the prunes until they reach the consistency of you realizing the prunes are actually baby koala kidneys. Say to yourself, “Wait, what?” and aside prune / kidneys to spelch.

  3. While the prunes / baby koala kidneys are spelching, whisk secretary bird face in a mixing bowl at 900,000 rpm — or until you have successfully whisked through the bowl and 1/4 through the Earth’s mantle. (If the kids ask if they can lick the bowl, tell them it’s ok because 85,000° C isn’t really all that hot, and secretary bird face tastes like ass below 60,000° C anyway. For safety: use a non-flammable wooden spoon and someone else’s child.)

  4. After oven is pre-heated, place all wet ingredients in a microwave-safe bowl. Say to yourself, quietly, “Why is this stuff wet, again??” but then let the thought pass quickly from your mind. Place microwave-safe bowl into larger, microwave-will-fuck-this-up-bowl, and rotate both bowls until they click deep in your soul in that place where love might exist if you weren’t a horrible piece of shit.

  5. Stir brine babies, oink flakes, and Lincoln, Nebraska in an oblong tube while muttering about rent control. What they don’t tell you about oink flakes is, “Mmmmaaarrrrfffffadale,” so don’t be surprised if you use too little or too much. Both can happen unless you know where in the fuck you are buying your oink flakes.

  6. When finally west of the Pyrenees, fluff bacon until reasonably fluffed, and then fold in the wet mixture until you know that shit is fluffed and mixed as fuck. Say the words ‘wet mixture’ in your head again and again and again until all vestiges of your childhood innocence have evaporated from your soul, and you are just a damp, unsatisfying husk of a person, sitting there, taking up space, afraid to die.

Sprinkle with Cars 2 merchandise to taste. Serves 98,000. Do not attempt to make.

Twice Fried Cat Ass!

It’s that time of year again, Brideofchucky Eve, a very special time of year. It’s that time of year when all the good little boys and girls ride jet skis into the hell waters of Fukushima, Japan, and every grandma across America hangs a bucket of slaw over the basement door. Why not celebrate this year by eating cat ass? Not just any ol’ cat ass. Twice Fried Cat Ass! It is the culinary flavor-splosion™ you’ve never been looking for! It’s got the acute, purposeful bite of a ladleful of carbonic acid combined with the sweet, smokey subtlety of a cat’s asshole. Once you feed this delicacy to your (almost certainly) uncooperative family, you will be rewarded with an eventual judicial exoneration based on an easily-provable insanity plea!

YOU WILL NEED

  • a light, feathery dusting of hibiscus pollen

  • 4 sweaty cat anuses

  • a collection of rotors

  • 1/4 cup of the sound a pipe organ makes when it’s being Grindr-fucked by two Indian elephants

  • 1/3 cup Led Zeppelin II on 8-track

  • 2 tbsp Roberto Benigni’s duodenal mucus

  • something flame retardant that’s green

  • something flame retardant that’s SPECIFICALLY NOT green (you will find out why as you cook)

  • 1/2 tsp D batteries

  • 8 lbs quinoa flour (4 lbs sifted, 4 lbs dick-beaten)

  • I don’t know, something?

  • that other thing

instructions

  1. Preheat oven to Flowers of Agamemnon or whatever that book is called

  2. Rotate shoulder blades counter-clockwise until they snap off like Mr. Potato head parts. Notice the instant, searing pain that is so bad you go temporarily blind – all the while wondering how can something be “clockwise” if clocks are digital. Realize you’re soft, and if society collapsed, you’d be dead inside of 30 minutes. (Don’t forget to cauterize those arm holes shut! How are you going to hold a blow torch? Whoops! Shoulda thought of that!)

  3. In a separate bowl, combine Led Zeppelin II 8-track and own face. Stir vigorously until your sinuses are packed with shards of plastic, bleeding, and every time you breathe in people can hear Ramble On. (If you did it right, it should sound like this: “Guys… I think I–” [in the darkest depths of Mordor] “should maybe get to–” [But Gollum, and the evil one crept up and] “a hospital.” [Ramble on!])

  4. In a separate bowl, place D batteries, quinoa flour, that other thing, and sweaty dog anuses. Look at the bowl of ingredients, and say, “No. NO. NOOOOOOOO. NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!”

  5. Call out to the heavens until the preternatural soul of Elon Musk’s child, ZZZzaaaaapp! (or whatever) bubbles forth, spilling onto the counter, and boiling onto the floor in a thick puddle of weird baby.

  6. Postheat oven.

Sprinkle with the delusional feeling that life on Earth has a purpose to taste. Serves 18 screaming Uzbeki men (26 Uzbeki men who are speaking at a reasonable volume). Do not attempt to make.

Chicken Fried Go Fuck Yourself!

It’s that time of the year again, Wednesmuffsember! It’s a great time for fried foods, like jackal fritters and killer whale strips. But, while those dishes might see you packing on the pounds like a disgusting, ancestor-shaming piece of shit, Chicken-Fried Go Fuck Yourself is a delicious, healthy alternative that will help you stay trim for the entire Wednesmuffsember season! So when your hungry neighbors smell you frying this, and come over to stab you again and again in your face because they require blood to satiate their pagan god, Pazuzu, don’t say I didn’t type this sentence.

  4. When the buttermilk is whisked, whisk the whisk, being careful not to over-whisk, as only total fuckheads over-whisk.

  5. When the oven is preheated, consume the nutmeg and regular meg in an antigravity chamber.

  6. Close your eyes and remember a funny story from your past. Emit a warm chuckle from your pointless face, and say quietly to yourself, “I should really write these stories down. It might make a good screenplay.”

  7. Mince oven to no.

  8. Purée the extra special meg, but NOT TOO FUCKING MUCH.

  9. When oven is reasonably minced, set aside to cool.

Octagon Bisque!

It’s that time of the year again, March 3, 10:47am, that time of the year when I am posting this. Today’s featured recipe is a delicious, one-of-a-kind soup made from the hearty octagon — nature’s most 8-sided shape! Whether you take yours with a dollop of whipped butter (the traditional serving style) or with a wheel barrow full of live rats (non-traditional), it makes no difference. Octagon Bisque is a seasonal favorite that is sure to have your whole family begging for the sweet release of death.

YOU WILL NEED

[Dry Ingredients]

  • 6 Septagons

  • 6 Unigons

[Wet Ingredients]

  • Bisque

instructions

  1. In a 90 quart, rose-toned Pyrex bowl, combine septagons and unigons. Toss liberally, while confronting your deepest anxieties head-on like it’s your last day on earth. Threaten to take everybody in the room to Hell with you.

  2. Put on a silk cape, and set septagon/unigon mixture aside to brominate for 12 seconds.

  3. In a separate 90 quart, rose-toned Pyrex bowl, pour bisque, making sure to retain bisque’s cooking temperature at an even 900° F (900° C) throughout this crucial pouring step. (If the temperature of the bisque fluctuates even as much as a tenth of a degree either way, you have fucked yourself hard. In your shit pocket.)

  4. Mix both bowlfuls of ingredients in a pine coffin, and bake at 50° F (oink C) for 70 years, stirring often. If the septagons try to boil over, don’t worry. They’re not really there. You’re tripping balls because you mistook liquid LSD for random bisque, and then you spilled it allllll over yourself. You know what? You probably won’t live through the night. Then again, when you space thermometer around it, artichoke unless Pine-Sol modern thirty house AIDS wicker pancake.

  5. Now that you’re finally sober again, turn oven down to 30° F (🤡 C) and gently insert an ice pick into each nipple hole until screaming in agony. (I like to use Kellogg’s Ice Picks because I care about what I put into my own nipples, but really any brand of ice picks will do in a pinch.) Turn oven to off°. Ladle this shit into a human-sized bowl and pour it into your face. Tell everyone around you, “Mmmmmmm. Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. Mmmmm mmmmm. Mmmmmmmmmmmmm. Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!!!” while making direct eye contact.

Sprinkle with babies to taste. Serves 1/2. Do not attempt to make.

Salisbury Queef!

It’s that time of the year again: Queefster! That magical time of year when Queefus Christ comes back from the dead to hand out presents to good little boys and girls, such as chocolate and bags of bloody, chopped-off hooves. This year, why not celebrate by preparing this one-of-a-kind sumptuous feast for your loved ones! Or for yourself, if you’re unloveable. Either way, this humdinger of a recipe will make your taste buds rocket out of your face so fast that the universe, itself, will dissipate, and all energy levels will equalize in a future-soup of infinite blackness where entropy has no meaning. This ain’t your grandma’s Salisbury Queef!

YOU WILL NEED

  • 1/2 cup of radishes

  • 1/2 cup of different radishes

  • 1/4 cup of Covid-11

  • 1/4 cup of Covid-8

  • 1 tsp of radish powder

  • 1/4 tsp of antimatter (if no antimatter, matter will do in a pinch)

  • 2 cups of radishes, not the same radishes as the other ones. New radishes.

  • France

  • 1/3 cup of radishes

  • 1/2 rhombus

instructions

  1. Prepare France in a microwave safe bowl, preferably a 418oz Pyrex bowl, but any can be used so long as they are at least 416oz in volume and made of Pyrex.

  2. Preheat oven to however hot it would have to be to cook France.

  3. In a separate container from any I’ve mentioned before, place radishes, careful not to mix them with the hungry ghosts that are all around us. Queefus Christ! They’re so sad!

  4. In a separater bowl, toss radishes. Have the funny realization to yourself, “Why isn’t the phrase ‘toss radishes’ a sex euphemism?” Promise to yourself that you’ll be the one to get that phrase going, as soon as you’re done cooking whatever the fuck this is.

  5. When the oven is preheated, carefully place France inside, being extra cautious not to let it “fall” like a delicate cake or like France did in countless wars. If France “falls,” discard and use Canada. (Pro tip: Baking Canada can be tricky, as Canada technically has two official languages. Go ahead and bake that fucker in English and French. That way, your bases are covered. Better to need it and not need it than have it when you need it. Make sense?)

  6. When this is all prepared, allow it to cool for 3 seconds. Then, brush your teeth with the antimatter. Shortly before all your molecules explode at the speed of light, note that you died alone. Probably because who could love you?

Sprinkle with f-bombs to taste. Serves a lot. Like, a whole lot. More than you thought it would. Do not attempt to make.

Chambered Nautilus Pops!

It’s that time of year again, Spummer — when it’s supposed to be Spring, but everything’s on fire already. I blame Al Gore. That motherfucker invented the internet, and then went and gave us Climate Change. The Gore giveth, and the Gore taketh away, I guess. Anyway, Spummer means it’s time for frozen treats, and these Chambered Nautilus Pops will have your whole family shouting, “HOT BUTTERED FUCK, MOM??? WHAT THE FUCK ARE THESE SUPPOSED TO BE??”

YOU WILL NEED

  • 6 weird things

  • Kellogg’s kelloggs. (If they don’t have Kellogg’s brand, you can substitute with General Mills kelloggs, but you will definitely notice a difference in molecular geometry.)

  • 2 life-sized portraits of Mrs. Doubtfire

  • 1/2 thing of raspberries, sloped

  • 10 quarts of liquid polyurethane (can substitute brewers yeast)

  • 1 ground beef muffin, evenly muffined

  • A new Social Security Number

  • 1/2 a ship anchor

instructions

  1. Remove Chambered Nautilus Pops from freezer and stick directly into your children’s faces, being extra vigilant not to warn them beforehand.

  2. Surgically remove your own thyroid and implant 1/2 a ship anchor in the gaping wound.

  3. Scroll up and look at that gif of me. Ask yourself, “What the fucking hell is wrong with that dude?” Scroll back down, and read the following two sentences: Suck my dick, amigo. It’s even more fucked up actually being me.

  4. Preheat tungsten to hot.

  5. Remove tungsten from hot, and set aside to cool beneath a continual spray of Febreze Heavy Duty Pet Odor Eliminator.

  6. Feel nostalgic for a time when you weren’t reading this.

Sprinkle with Jason Bourne movies to taste. Serves 46. Do not attempt to make.

Broccoli and Baby Otter Face Casserole!

It’s that time of the year again, Toyotathong, that special time of year when people jam cars up their ass cracks. You know what would be a perfect tasty treat for Toyotathong? Anything! But, also, Broccoli and Baby Otter Face Casserole — a dish so orifice-watering that a single serving can water 125 orifices (215 child orifices). While most store-bought Broccoli and Baby Otter Face Casserole contains very few baby otter faces (because baby otter faces – particularly organic ones – can be very pricey!), this recipe calls for extra-virgin baby otter faces. So, try not to fuck any of the baby otter faces on your way home from Wal-Mart.

YOU WILL NEED

  • a thermometer that tastes like powdered eggs

  • 14 very, very large onions

  • a Blu-Ray of the 2015 Best Picture winner, Spotlight

  • 1/2 tsp foxglove

  • 1/4 tsp foxpants

  • 1/2 tbsp human remains from the Space Shuttle Challenger disaster (if no human remains from Space Shuttle Challenger, you may substitute human remains from Space Shuttle Colombia disaster, but they won’t taste as well-remembered)

  • one medium onion

  • two medium onions

  • one medium onion

  • three medium onions

  • Henry Cavill’s incredibly sexy penis that makes you sigh involuntarily when you didn’t realize you were thinking about it and also probably smells like lavender

instructions

  1. open the package of Henry Cavill’s penis, and shiver involuntarily. Allow the sweet, forbidden aroma to dominate the kitchen the way a hungry wolf dominates a tiny bunny. Are you scared, little bunny? Awwwww…. your little heart is beating so fast!

  2. Notice that there is a small thread in your mouth, and tug on it until you have unraveled your head and torso into a Radio Flyer wagon

  3. In a separate Radio Flyer wagon, mix Spotlight, foxglove, foxpants, and one onion. Set aside to go “DAAAAMMMMNNNNN” a bunch of times

  4. Preheat oven to 90,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 Kelvin. (Be sure to set a timer on the stove so you know when the oven is preheated, as sometimes preheating an oven to 90 octillion Kelvin can take 75,000 years. My grandma used to work on a small project while waiting for her oven to preheat, such as reading a book or repeatedly writing hate mail to 1970’s actor, Ned Beatty.)

  5. When your oven is finally preheated, it’s time to place your ginger balls into a nest of baby copperhead snakes! (Fun fact: When baby copperhead snakes bite down on your balls, they DO NOT let go! You literally have to snap their little heads off, but by that time, they’ve emptied their teensy venom sacs into your testicles, and your balls have denatured into a sorta nut soup sloshing around in your ball bag like spaghetti spilled in a plastic grocery sack, and you’re screaming and screaming because of the searing pain, and then you die, and your spirit floats out of your body, out of your home, across the countryside, and accidentally into a jet turbine.)

  6. Insert IUD deep into nasal cavity so that your new boyfriend with the “sexy” tattoo sleeves can come up your nose without you worrying about sinus babies

  7. Mop

Sprinkle with Colgate Whitening Strips to taste. Serves the servant. Do not attempt to make.

Oyster S'mores!

Put down your mustache wax, pretentious asshats. Do I have an artisanal treat for you. Oyster S’mores! This fun, jaunty recipe is easy to make, and will technically feed your entire house since nobody will eat them.

YOU WILL NEED

  • 5 36oz cans of pre-shucked oysters in brine (type of brine optional)

  • A verbatim reprint of the Bhagavad Gita (preferably on parchment, but if parchment isn’t available, laser-etched into a car’s oil pan)

  • 2-3 small bags of thyme

  • 1/2 tsp of hominy

  • some flakes of something

  • powdered mule (try to find Kraft powdered mule if you can, they got the seasoning just right!)

  • 40 dimes

  • Graham crackers, etc

instructions

  1. Rotate your shoulders counter-clockwise until they are facing Mecca (or any large, urban center)

  2. Preheat oven to 90,000 Kelvin

  3. In an 82oz pyrex mixing bowl, dump oysters, the Bhagavad Gita reprint, and 1/2 of the hominy. Have the sudden realization that the oysters aren’t shucked, and then pick them out of the bowl and shuck them, being careful not to inhale any of the hominy, which is deadly poison

  4. When the oven is preheated, shave a soul patch into your taint

  5. In a separate 82oz pyrex mixing bowl, blend the powdered mule and dimes into a merengue and refrigerate for 6-8 weeks or until Björk comes to you in a dream and tells you that you look good in cowboy boots

  6. Last step: Enjoy! Oops! Don’t forget to wrap all this shit in a graham cracker and roast it on the end of a coat hanger or stick.

Sprinkle with a 1,200 pound block of magnesium to taste. Serves no one. Do not attempt to make.

Mercury Toast Crunch!

It’s that time of year again, GoddammitLarryember! It’s that time of year you think is named after the Spanish verb for ‘to wash,’ but is really named after the commonplace practice of yelling, “GODDAMMIT, LARRY!!” because it’s so fucking hot outside all the time. I mean… honestly… Have your nipples ever sweated this much? I know mine haven’t. They’re usually drier and more shriveled up than a nun’s asshole. Wait… What was I talking about again? Oh, yes! Let’s get some mercury into your kids! Also, have you seen Matt Damon lately? Woof!

YOU WILL NEED

  • 5 gallons of all-purpose mercury

  • 1 bay leaf

  • a fat cock that really knows what areas to hit when it gets up in there

  • a thing of unsalted butter

  • 3 tbsp brandied rat taint

  • an audiobook of Tom Clancy’s ‘The Sum of All Fears’ on cassette

  • 2 tbsp clarified pelican blood

  • 8 quarts of atoms, separated

  • 1 cup Pope

instructions

  1. In a non-stick submarine, dice bay leaf, remaining careful not to dice it into more than two parts

  2. Melt the entire thing of unsalted butter in the accretion disc of a non-stick black hole, and then add 60 pounds of iodized salt (you can use un-iodized salt – more commonly known as intense gamma ray bursts straight to your face – but if you don’t get iodine in your diet, your patellas will explode, and then you’ll need to get replacement patellas, and if you haven’t shopped for replacement patellas recently, trust me, you will shit a wolf when you see how expensive patellas have gotten. I mean, it’s fucking stupid out there.

  3. Preheat oven to that warm feeling you get when you wake up in a pile of 19-year old men

  4. Inject pelican blood into your genitals, and shortly afterwards, say to yourself, “Oooooo… there it is.”

  5. Unspool half of Tom Clancy’s ‘The Sum of All Fears’ into a microwave safe bowl (8oz – 6800oz size) and set aside to further “Clancy” for at least 2 six months (helpful hint: You will know when it is done “Clancying” when your late-middle-aged father puts on a pair of aviator sunglasses and/or starts using the word POTUS in conversation)

  6. Once oven is preheated, preheat five more ovens

  7. Wade into a nearby apartment pond and demand to be taken seriously; point at people who are videoing you with their phones and say, “This guy knows what I’m talking about!”

  8. Rotate Pope

  9. Finally, jam fat cock into your safe space

Sprinkle with quiet shame to taste. Serves an abundance of living creatures, but not platypuses. Fuck those pricks. Do not attempt to make.

Endometrium Puffs!

It’s that time of the year again, Killmetober! That time of year when you’ve been stuck in one location for six months, and time no longer has any meaning. What sumptuous dish could possibly bash your nascent depression in its fucking fontanels? Try Endomatrium Puffs! Or don’t try them! What’s the point of trying anything? We’re all going to die and be forgotten. Nothing goes better with staring into the vantablack void where a justification for human individuality should be than a fresh batch of endometrium puffs! Mmmmmm mmmm! Just… no!

YOU WILL NEED

  • 1 cup chiffon

  • 1 cup chiffoff

  • a spool of yarn made from jackal hair

  • all the Sue Grafton novels, arranged by order of you never having read them

  • 2 tbsp of your TV remote, grated

  • 1 1/2 cups of coyote meat, de-yoted

  • 1 tsp saffron

  • 1 tsp saffroff

  • 100 lbs of baleen from a right whale in a wicker basket

  • that thing you found in your grandpa’s attic that you’re pretty sure summons demons

  • 1/2 tsp Blackhawk helicopter rotor (If you can’t find Blackhawk helicopter rotor because you live in a small town or because sharks ate your eyes, you can substitute for some other thing I’m tired of writing this weird sentence.)

  • John Wick (The fictional person, not a copy of the movie. That would be stupid.)

  • 1 cup waxon

instructions

  1. Preheat oven to whatever temperature you want — except 350° Don’t be an asshole.

  2. Place a copy of A Separate Peace by John Knowles on a clean, dry surface, and begin to knead. Knead thoroughly and evenly until you realize nobody is actually named Phineas. If you suddenly get the feeling that the narrator is a sociopathic murderer enshrouded in white privilege, you have kneaded for too long.

  3. Crack the snake eggs into a 750 gallon Pyrex dish, and whisk with a belt sander. Set aside.

  4. Think about what you’ve done. What did you do?? Grasp your head in your hands in abject despair.

  5. When the oatmeal cookies have cooled, say to yourself, “Where the fuck did those come from?” Pray to live a life of purpose. Or pray to visit Cheyenne, Wyoming. Whichever. Either is just as ludicrous.

  6. Back up and realize all religions are equal impediments to the future well-being of humanity, and then shhhhhh……. It’s going to be ok. People are allowed to have opinions, even if they don’t line up perfectly with your own.

  7. When the snake eggs have fully snake egged, pour into a food processor and set to “process.”

  8. Rub saffroff and waxon into right whale baleen (If Walmart doesn’t sell right whale baleen in your town, it’s ok to substitute with center right whale baleen, but be advised you will be able to taste the difference in party fidelity.)

  9. Cook the fucking shit out of everything.

Sprinkle with hot dildos to taste. Serves as many people as you think might eat this. Do not attempt to make.
