Has anyone ever had a country fried steak that wasn't absolutely fucking disgusting?

Yup

I could be wrong, but it is not my impression that quality cuts of meat are typically "country fried."

The best country fried steak I ever had was at Black Bear Diner in Mt. Shasta, CA. Not that this information is particularly useful, but I wanted to tell the world.

@Fawlty Don't you use grammarly?

I turned it off for Sherdog, but I use it when I write copy. I liked it for a while, but these days it's mostly just a comma catcher (and you never want to be called a comma catcher).

I honestly couldn't tell you the difference between a $5 steak and a $30 one, and I'm not generally very scrutinizing about the quality of meat, but every country fried steak I've had, the contained "steak" has the consistency of a chicken nugget and the taste of an old sock. And, from looking at the Google pictures, that's the norm, at least in terms of consistency.

I foolishly got one from the cafeteria at work and....good lord, I had to go home to lie down on my lunch break. And, keep in mind, I eat Long John Silvers about once a week.

I'm not going to California for a Southern dish, just like I'm not going to Arkansas for seafood, or to Kansas for literally anything ever.

Country fried steak looks like renta-schnitzel.

I would go to Kansas for a shooting war, or an abortion pick-up/drop-off.

(Grammarly says no comma there btw, but I say BOO to that)

Depends what I’m hunting I guess, dall sheep are my favorite animals to hunt and I enjoy hunting in the talkeetnas and the Alaska range, for moose, right here where I live is pretty productive and for caribou there’s a large cape nearby that you can get to with a 30 minute flight and get dropped off, lots of nice size caribou out there.

Outside of Alaska, I really enjoyed hunting elk in NM, CO, AZ and Wyoming, Montana is nice too.

Glorious.... Thank you for my new destination for getting some good hunting. Sentience will be savored...

Anyone here drink Monster Energy drinks? I see a couple people at work have them instead of coffee in the morning. Never had one, but I'm curious.

Don't do it. Just drink espresso, or coffee.

I was with you on this, but then I took an arrow to the knee looked it up on wikipedia. :

Professor (commonly abbreviated as Prof.)[1] is an academic rank at universities and other post-secondary education and research institutions in most countries. Literally, professor derives from Latin as a "person who professes" being usually an expert in arts or sciences, a teacher of the highest rank.[1]

In most systems of academic ranks the word "Professor" only refers to the most senior academic position, sometimes informally known as "full professor".[2][3] In some countries or institutions, the word professor is also used in titles of lower ranks such as associate professor and assistant professor; this is particularly the case in the United States, where the word professor is sometimes used colloquially to refer to anyone in an academic post.[4] This colloquial usage would be considered incorrect among most other academic communities. However, the unqualified title Professor designated with a capital letter usually refers to a full professor also in English language usage.

I think I've been using governor (guv'ner) wrong, too....

Alright then, can't say much to that.

I like these Nocco ones, not sure if you have them around you. Much better flavour than the monsters which taste like chemical waste. They do make me a bit twitchy now in my old age.

I have them at night, sometimes when I am running to ge... For my goals I don't quite have the energy so I need a boost to capture my personal record. It does it's job, be sure however to brush your teeth Mr. Higus due to the high acidity concentration in the drinks, your dentures are important to us....

My mom’s side is Jewish. I’m not religious, but I was raised in both Jewish and Catholic households. The guilt is just... divine.

I had a friend that has Jewish and Catholic parents. She said that she got the Catholic Guilt and the Jewish neurosis.

Bill Maher also comes from a Catholic/Jewish household IIRC. I wonder if its a common mix.

I think Sherdog posters in general use too many commas, but it's usually for the purpose of helping to clarify meaning--I will do so on purpose occasionally, so I'm ok with it. I have come to be able to tolerate just about all the shitty writing on here, but I really wish to fuck that I could go just one day without seeing a misused apostrophe, just to restore my faith in humanity a little. And I'm with @Jack V Savage. Good grammar just isn't that hard to learn, imo, and no more effort to put into practice than shitty writing that makes it difficult understand you.

@Lead I'm looking at you, man. I love ya but seriously, sometimes your posts are literally indecipherable to me LOL
