Bearded man: Oh! This is disgusting! It tastes like mud and corn husks!

[[A chef, the bearded man and a man wearing a fedora stand in front of a barrel]]
Chef: That’s what the recipe calls for.
Bearded man: Thankfully it’s masked by all the vodka.
Man wearing a fedora: Well, then it’s wrong. It’s supposed to taste like mud, corn husks, and old milk. You might think you know better, but guess what? GET OVER YOURSELF. Not every job is about being wonderfully creative. Sometimes you’re just hired to FOLLOW A FREAKIN’ RECIPE.

Chef: Even if the recipe is CRAZY?
Bearded man: Even if the BOSS is crazy?
Man wearing a fedora: As long as he’s not too crazy to sign a paycheck, then yes.
Pig: Guys I am right here.

I wrote a little reminiscence on Patreon (free/unlocked) — including a first-since-then reprint of the photocomics I made at the time, documenting the trip!
