I dunno man. Medium rare likely happens within the first five minutes.
Cremation chambers are full of hot spots. And if you're cooking a fatty, just think of the flare ups! No way a bone-in, irregularly-shaped, 6 inch thick human roast is cooking uniformly in that environment.

You make a good point. However, I believe excluding internal organs you could achieve a crispy skin and medium rare muscles. More problematic in areas like the quads, but the ribs could be fabulous.

Attended a funeral of a childhood friend of my moms. She was cremated. We're at the funeral home that turns out one of my distant cousins owned. He sees us and comes over. Starts telling us about this new oven they have that really gets the bones down to ash etc. We had to remind him we were there for a funeral. Weird day.

No. You slow cook ribs. If you're cooking an entire pig at once you also slow cook that. So you would definitely want to slow cook a human if you intended to eat it.

Flash fry thigh?

this is pretty high on the list of things I didn’t think I’d be discussing.

You only flash fry small pieces of meat. The outside will be crispy and the inside will still be pretty raw.

If you lose one leg your BMI goes down. If you lose two legs your BMI goes up as it is based on weight and height.

We should pass a law requiring politicians to wear body cams just like cops

If a woman gets an abortion does that mean her womb is a graveyard or haunted house?

Yeah — there is a name for this. A couple, actually, depending on how the sound is removed:

1. Aphaeresis

This is the term for dropping the first sound or syllable of a word.
Examples:

’cause (from because)

’em (from them)

ol’ (from old)

tis (from it is)


2. Apocope

This is the term for dropping the last sound or syllable of a word.
Examples:

fam (from family)

bio (from biology)

tho (from though)

maths → math (in American English)


3. Clipping (broader, more casual term)

This is the general linguistic term for shortening a word by removing any part of it (front, back, or middle).
Aphaeresis and apocope are just the more technical sub-types.

If you want the most precise answer for “ol’,” that’s aphaeresis.

But ol' is dropping the last syllable, not the first. You can tell by the location of the '. How can that be aphraseiosis?

Also, I would say math is dropping the end of mathematics, whereas the brits contract the word to maths.

What retarded AI model spat out that hot load of word jizz?

Yes. We didn't "drop the s from maths" because math never had an fucking s on the end. What a ridiculous UK-centric summary.
