I can't help but feel amused as hell by this. I know Hamilton means this as a compliment, but it so, so isn't. I laughed and read that aloud to my husband who responded with, "... she feeds Hamilton like a momma bird- regurgitating crap directly into her mouth? She has only three ingredients that she uses over and over? She serves a plate full of unseasoned mashed potatoes and calls it a full, gourmet meal?"
I feel sorry for that food. It's like when I see a book that says something along the lines of "Fans of LKH will love this!" The publisher thinks they're doing the book a favor but, really... no. Just no. Seeing that, I know immediately that it will not be a good book. So far, I haven't been let down by this philosophy.
