There once was 2 dopers, one named **Hal** ,  
The other, **Rufus Xavier** , was his pal.  
They started to rhyme,  
Oh, it was a crime,  
When they involved poor **PussyCow**.  
Wait a minute… :dubious:

It seems **PussyCow** started this mess,  
I thought better of you I must confess,  
Watch out for these guys!  
They pretend to be wise,  
But it’s all just a show to impress. 😛

Awesome, except I should’ve gotten some jalapeños thrown on there.  
Instead, I got some not-so-hot sauce from the corner store.  
It sucks. ☹  
Well, at least now I have something to drink if I get thirsty. 😉

Hi Rufie!  
Lunch was leftovers, so nothing special to report.

So **harmless** , is what are you having to wash down that lunch that should have had hot sauce - a margarita? With lunch?

Shameless!

No…harmless! 😛

I got a Firehouse Sub, Engineer: Turkey, sautéed mushrooms and onions, lettuce, tomatoes, cheese.  
I’ve just been on a jalapeño kick lately and didn’t think about it until after it was already being made.  
I thought hot sauce would make up for it, but this stuff is _weak_!  
I was getting some coffee for later at the corner store and saw the sauce on the shelf and thought “why not?”  
:rolleyes:

Turkey Creek is what it’s called.  
The bad thing is Firehouse subs has about 50 different _hot_ sauces in their store.  
I had to get mine to go so I could make it back to the store in time to let my co-worker go home.

Last night I had a slice from Moe’s that had feta, spinach, mushrooms, and jalapeños…it was pure heaven with a pitcher of Bud Lite! 😃

But SnoopDog? to each his own ya know 😉

If you say “Cajun Man” three times while looking at your monitor, he appears and closes your thread.
