You Can Go Vegan

Pack Rat Magazine likes to stir the stew

Well, we here at Pack Rat are pretty much across the board omnivores, but we have our misgivings about the meat industry and have nothing but love for our vegan brethren and sisteren. So, coming across the Post Punk Kitchen, a public access show devoted to tasty vegan meals even made me excited. Delicious sounding recipes like black bean and sweet potato stew, brown sugar fruit cakes, and roast squash pasta have me drooling. If you’re vegan this sounds like a sure thing, and even if you aren’t, who can resist a yummy new recipe?

Sea Mistress

Pack Rat Magazine enjoys the phrase “pirate’s booty” because, tee hee, booty.

So here’s a fun fact about me. I love weird humor. Like really weird, totally left field, never see it coming in a million years kind of jokes. But not like Aqua Teen Hunger Force kind of humor. Even I have my limits. Things like The Onion, Space Ghost Coast to Coast, The Colbert Report; these are the kind of things that get me rolling in the aisles. Enter Married to the Sea. Written by Drew and Natalie Dee, these daily comics are bizarre, sometimes in the extreme. I assume that the graphics are public domain images/old brochure type art that they just scan and then add funny captions to, but it’s possible that they draw the images themselves. I haven’t been able to find any info one way or another. I think it’s funnier to assume that they are stock images, it gives the whole thing a twisted New Yorker “caption cartoon contest” feel about it. Anywho, here are a few of my favorites below.
