I like this one. It looks like spelling bee, and plays NOTHING like spelling bee.

I believe its called "Lisa the Iconoclast".

At least, that's Jebediah Springfield.. I can't remember why he's laughing maniacally though.

Speaking as a former teacher, this is also the result of the increasing stresses in the profession. The pattern for the last couple decades has been to continually load teachers with more responsibilities while providing less support, and many who are trying to enter the profession are burning out and switching to other jobs. I can't imagine many of those graduates would want to come back without a significant increase in compensation or a change in the culture.

I pull the cloves apart first, discard the loose bits of skin, and then give them a shake to loosen the stuck-on skins. I've never had an issue with bruising the garlic, although the method, in my experience, also isn't 100%

One thing I forgot to mention: don't cut off the ends first. Then you won't get garlic juice everywhere :)

I would imagine it's more the collisions with a hard surface, and metal bowls are simply the lightest way to do that. It's actually not a lot of work; it maybe takes 20 seconds of shaking. I like the other suggestion of using a cocktail shaker, though. That would be quieter AND easier, assuming it's equally effective

Another good method is to get two large metal bowls face to face with the cloves inside, and shake the shit out of them like a human fire alarm.

Be warned though, this WILL terrify your cats, if you have any

Now, if only they'd start doing this for racial profiling of people who aren't millionaires, THEN we'd be getting somewhere!

Yes, but to be more specific, it is a spherical triangle.

Pedantic nonsense. This is like trying to argue that guns don't kill people.
