Only One Day Old, and Already Biting the Hand That Feeds Him…
By Tom Chandler on Aug 21, 2007 in Underground Entertainment
It didn’t take long; one day after I labored long and hard over a hot keyboard to birth his new blog, Singlebarbed launched an attack on the most sacred of Trout Underground institutions: the Slaw Dog.
It’s either a cry for help or linkbait, but when someone says (and we quote) “Slaw Dogs are an affront to the human race,” I figure a response is called for.
This, I suppose, is what it’s like for a parent when their sweet, well-behaved kids become surly, ungrateful teenagers. Oy, the pain. See you in hell, Tom Chandler.

Everyone knows that Californians only dine on White wine and Brie, you was making the rest of us look bad TC.
We have a monopoly on Vegans, actors with social causes, liberal senators, and nut cases that become president (tied with Texas).
How can an ersatz plasticine wiener boost tourism? Smother it in anything other than Jessica Alba, and its a killer.
Think of the big picture. Dad.

Let’s define the term “Californian” carefully. I figure there are two kinds.
First, there are the hardy, rugged, handsome mountain types (such as myself). Then there’s everyone else.
We (of the first type) laugh in the face of danger, and in an area where wild beasts or a volcano could kill us in seconds without warning, slaw dogs don’t even register on the “Danger Meter.”
Hell, we’d sprinkle plutonium on our dogs if it tasted as good as slaw. We’re just that tough.
Sure, the rest of the nestle-water drinking, money-grubbing, black hummer-driving population might not enjoy the tempestuous slaw dog, but that’s just because they’re not tough enough.
The slaw dog is a fickle mistress. Love her, hate her, but don’t ever disrespect her…

Translation:
“Respect and tempestuous” used to describe anything non-living, equals flatulence.
“Rugged, handsome mountain types” means the L&T Nancy makes him and Wally spend the night outside when afflicted.
Slaw Dogs should come with a “don’t try this at home” disclaimer, or acreage roped off with red and white tape. It would be incontinent of me not to warn your readership.
