It would take away a lot of the zing... But it's cooking, you do you!

Seems like you could use a kick start for something different. Let me suggest Alabama White Sauce. Tangy, a little heat, and some lip sweat.

Alabama White BBQ Sauce: 1 cup mayonnaise

1/4 cup apple cider vinegar

1 tablespoon prepared horseradish

1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

1 teaspoon cayenne pepper

Salt

Never thought I'd get emotionally invested and attached to a creature as alien as Rocky. I thoroughly enjoyed in the book and it's my favorite out of the three Weir books I've read.

No. If it's sticking you're generally cooking too cool. Fast sear followed by a slower roast.

Social media is supposed to be the digital commons. Without a dislike button, then the media cannot be a commons. You go to the town square and start spouting offensive bullshit you're going to get the proverbial rotten tomatoes thrown at you, mockery, and getting shunned.

With only having a like button, Twitter amplifies the message of bad actors and encourages rage responses. That's the point though isn't it? Engagement metrics to sell rage at a discount instead of the whole normal population buying a post with dislikes and moving on.

And that's when you really get good at breaking shit.

I find there are few cult classics that can be found by future generations and maintain their cult status outside of the truly timeless greats like Rocky Horror Picture Show or similar. There's a nostalgia associated with most cult films. I can't imagine GenZ glomming onto Better off Dead or Ferris Bueller's Day Off or The Goonies because so much of the camp and humor is tied to a time they don't have a reference for.
