Just turned on the Season 3 premiere and the first words I hear: "I got a false testicle and I'm ready to cook!"

DAMMIT WHY DOES THIS HAVE TO BE ON WHEN I AM AT WORK?

I will catch the rerun.

Hell's Kitchen just started up again this week, as well.

Aaah, summer.

you know, anthony bourdain, when he's a "guest" on this show just fucking rules. so brutal.

I missed him?

Dammit.

I hope the show reruns at 2AM.

Can someone explain to me why these food service people are so often such cunts? Everyone from the Food Network celebrities to the people on these reality shows to people I've worked with in restaurants to the culinary students I overhear on the train are so surprisingly arrogant, ostentatious, and pedantic that I really have to wonder if I'm missing something. Wtf? How do you get this ego by being paid 9.50 an hour to throw cheese curds into a fryer? I really want to know.

So very few of these people are true artists or innovators, while the vast majority of them have no skills you couldn't teach a 10 year old retarded kid. I guess you could say the same about musicians though. But we all know that already.

This is why I was so surprised when you told me you used to work in a restaurant! You are so different from pretty much every line cook/prep cook/sous chef I have ever met.

Bourdain sort of tries to explain it in his book, but I think it's just a ruse. I think the reality is that the hours are shitty and the work is really grinding, so I guess people develop a chip on their shoulder about it.

I could be way off base here.
