@JoePompliano @KeeganHall No one on reddit deserves any respect whatsoever.

Rory McIlroy commissioned this pencil drawing after last year's Masters Tournament.
The artist (@KeeganHall) provided context on Reddit:
• Spent 6+ months working on it
• Estimates 600-800+ total hours
• Worked on it 6-7 days each week
• Uses a Pentel Graphgear mechanical pencil
Hall says this piece was incredibly challenging because so much detail went into such a small area. For context, the original is smaller than 30x22, so each face in the crowd is essentially a quarter of the size of a fingernail.
This is the second piece he has done for Rory.

If you’re regularly getting passed in no-passing zones, you’re a slow asshole and you need to learn to drive faster.

I can’t even tell you how many times I’ve had people pull up next to me in a left turn only lane just to floor it at the green light and cut me off

Those "grill scrapings" are what happens when ground beef hits 450°F steel and the proteins undergo the Maillard reaction at maximum surface area.
A spherical patty sitting on a grill touches maybe 15% of its surface. A smash burger pressed flat against a plancha touches 90%+. That means 6x more beef surface is simultaneously converting amino acids and reducing sugars into hundreds of new flavor compounds. The browning you're looking at is roughly 500 to 1,000 distinct molecules that didn't exist before the meat hit the steel.
The crispy lace around the edges is rendered fat that seeped out under pressure, hit the hot steel, and fried the protein strands from the outside in. Those thin edges are essentially beef chips. They shatter when you bite them, which creates a textural contrast against the still-juicy center that a thick pub burger physically cannot produce.
The flat geometry also solves a heat transfer problem. A thick patty has a massive temperature gradient from surface to center. You either overcook the outside waiting for the middle, or pull it with a raw center. A smash burger is thin enough that the entire patty reaches optimal temperature within 60 to 90 seconds per side. There's no gradient to manage.
George Motz documented over 300 burger restaurants for his book and found that nearly every legendary regional burger in America, from the Midwest butter burger to the Oklahoma onion burger, uses this exact technique. Thin, pressed, maximum contact with a hot flat surface.
The ones that look the worst on camera consistently taste the best. The visual mess is the flavor.

This isn’t a burger. This is the stuff you clean off of the grill before you make a burger

@reddit_lies You can actually just set up direct deposit recurring donations to planned parenthood in poor neighborhoods

There is an epidemic of foreign truck drivers being absolutely retarded and clogging up all lanes of traffic like this.
They drive for miles, side-by-side, without passing each other; completely oblivious to the miles of bumper-to-bumper traffic they create directly behind them.

Actually, based. Truckers should be banned from the left lane lmao
