It's good that Ray did not interact with the poor gentleman, else there would be another carpet flower in Hell to remind him of his thoughtlessness.

2023-08-27 03:38:29 +0000 UTCHoooooooo man. It's really easy to conceive of Beef's cares as being founded in neurosis, but the prose really does a good job of highlighting how profoundly sensitive and developed his empathy is. (I can imagine that this is actually a very personal piece, but Mr. Kazenzakis here was the perfect vessel for it.)

2023-08-26 17:12:45 +0000 UTCThe only reason Beef doesn't gravitate toward MD 20/20 is the long-ingrained habit of reading labels to check the sodium content. He probably didn't think Kosher wine would help.
