You’re probably the kind of person who donates muffin stumps to the soup kitchen.
…which you haven’t read, so you probably shouldn’t comment on it.
There’s also a lot of crazy reactionary knee-jerk advice - I promise you that any “I’m having trouble with my SO” thread is going to have at least one person screaming “DROP HIM NOW!”
I am so glad I took the marmite advice. I found a little 4oz jar and bought two! I just toasted a slice of cottageceese/chive bread, spread a little marmite on top, added parmesan sprinkles and tried it for the first time.
Yum, i think, can’t really taste it, a little soy aftertaste. Next slice is toasting right now, will spread it thicker…POP
mmmm marmite…
Or ‘get counselling.’
Yes, sometimes counselling is needed, but not nearly as often as people recommend here.
Sometimes I respond to dating questions with posts from my own experience as a happily married man. Since my answers are usually straightforward with (I hope) little excitement or controversy, they are usually ignored.
Bacon salt. What the FUCK is the attraction of that vile, semi-toxic seasoning?
Or ZOMG get a lawyer and sue! Or call the police and then get a lawyer and sue!
:rolleyes:
To chime in on the vegemite/marmite conundrum, I hated it for years when I first moved to Australia. I discovered I liked it only a couple of years ago, and only against advice - spread thick, no butter. I’m wierd. Thus, any advice I have to give on the yeasty spread goodness would be bad and suspect.
(I got excellent advice in the one thread I asked for it, thanks to the guitar playing doper community, so I can’t complain, really.)
On the other hand, advice you pay for can be more for the benefit of the paid advisor than yourself - depending on context of course, I’m primarily thinking of financial advice here.
Which I have read, and in fact cite-checked. Something you clearly have not done, or you wouldn’t be pimping Loewen (and thus spreading ignorance).
Woo Hoo - James Loewen slapfight!
This, I hunted for a month for that stuff when everyone was raving about it. Finally found some, tried it, and it was disgusting. “It’s Great on Veggies!” “It’s Great on Popcorn!” “It tastes just like BACON, ZOMG!!!” No, No, and HELL NO. (But that’s just my opinion ;))
So, if anybody wants some barely used Bacon Salt Original and Hickory Flavor, I would be glad to hand it over…
I am a recent convert to Scott’s. The only reason is because it doesn’t leave behind lint or anything (and you can get close to 7 cords of it for a dollar.)
LOL.
In another thread, the poster above was convinced that I had the book in front of me and wanted me to look things up in it to support his points. Imagine his shock when I told him the book was at home and I wasn’t going to do his legwork for him.
Thirded.
Dear lord, that stuff is absolutely disgusting. I avoided saying anything bad because their customer support guy was so damn friendly.
Based on that, you drew the conclusion that he hadn’t read the book?
I haven’t seen the discussion you guys are talking about, but I already know whose side I’m leaning toward.
But how does the book taste with marmite and bacon salt on it?
Fair enough. I guess the whole “This book is wrong, but I won’t tell you how. Go look it up yourself and report back.” vibe rubbed me the wrong way.
I will say that reading Loewen’s *Lies Across America *with a critical eye is pretty good advice, since I don’t know of any other book that treats the subject of public monuments in that way. Like it or not, it gets you to thinking.
I told you how. In fact, I gave you two clear-cut examples of the book misleading readers. Since you own the book (I do not) I asked you to look up the passage in question. You refused (rather rudely, as a matter of fact). ::shrug::
I hate Charmin it feels like aloe tissue. And who takes advice and buys 36 rolls of something they have never tried? That was just a bad move on your part. Give it away to someone in the family. That happens with me on occasion. My Dad bought the wrong kind of vegetable oil once and it was a huge jug of it so where did it go? To me the daughter who isn’t picky and would never buy something that expensive. ( It had been opened before the mistake was noticed) Sweet for me that my mom is picky. It was the wrong brand seriously mom!!!
