That’s exactly the sort of thing I’d expect out of those [peckerinos](http://www.cheese.com/Description.asp?Name=Pecorino).

You know, jokes like that really cheese me off. I mean, here I am, reading the SDMB, minding my own brie-siness, and you start wine-ing about the mod moving a thread, like some [Stinking Bishop](http://www.cheese.com/Description.asp?Name=Stinking%20Bishop). It’s enough to make a person rennet away as fast as he can. **Giraffe** wasn’t being a gorgonzola about it, so parmesan me if I’m a little annoyed.

Sheesh…not too sharp, that one. She’d have much better off just honing her kraft instead of letting some undercover cop string her along…

It’s a good thing she tried this in Arkansas, not southern California. Rondele, they don’t put up with that kind of nonsense at all!

What was the street value of that cheese?

When I read this article, I thought, “No whey.” It curdled my blood. She must have thought she was the big cheese.
