I've never made mayo, only seen my friends make it, and it was always with a manual whisk. I have made hollandaise and I don't think it usually turns out perfect in consistency, and in fact it's been pretty bad. Maybe it's a practice thing.
Yes, one of those. Mine is a Braun and came with a cylindrical container into which the business end of the blender just fits. You put your ingredients in -- egg or yolk, lime/lemon juice, salt, oil (no need to dribble it in)--then insert the blender to the bottom, turn it on and slowly draw it upwards. Takes about ten seconds and you have mayonnaise. Keeps about a week. Great for making mayos specially flavored with garlic and herbs tailored to something you're making.
Have you made hollandaise that way? Heck, I'm ready to order one right now.

He probably has. I certainly have and I can tell you it works.

No, I don't. Perhaps I should ask Santa. When I first typed Santa, it came out as Satan. I will not sell my soul for a wand blender.

Again you vociferate about a subject and yet you have no experience with it.
No. Jill has Bobo Bozo beat by many years. Experience, you know.

Using a stick or standup blender you'll have mayo in under a minute. By hand, it might take two or three. The key is to use a large balloon whisk, but then you might not figure out stuff like that just by watching your friends.
If he (or Jill) hasn't seen or done it, it doesn't exist. Can't you remember that?
well, it may exist, but in any case it's deplorable.
