If you say that Diet Suck or Crystal Suck suck then isn’t that sorta a compliment? ---

Well, I think it sucks that no one has posted in this thread for six months. But now one of the Merry Jackbooted Crew is gonna wander by, mutter something about posting to zombie threads and shut it down. And that will really suck!! ---

**AskNott** I must take exception. You stated _Eating crow doesn’t hold a candle to drinking Old Crow®._ I heartily disagree. Eat [crow](http://www.1728.com/sheryl.jpg). It tastes good _and_ it’s good for you. ---

My apologies, \*\* Clothahump\*\*, I didn’t realize this thread had been [threadspotted](http://www.straightdope.com/). I’ll re-open this thread 'cause it’s already been hijacked and is no longer centered around its original post. ---

While we’re talking about eating crow (and now that this thread is reopened), I would like to add my own description: Tastes like foot. I didn’t start my own thread on account of not wanting to revisit the old, but in [this thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=329138&page=1&pp=50), I managed to get part of my econ just flat out wrong. In the process, I also insulted a few posters, notably **RickJay** and **Gorsnak**. My argument about drug costs in other countries was flawed, they (righteously) called me on it, and I didn’t see their arguments until, well, much later. :smack: \\ \\ Hmmm…, Crow, it’s like foot, but at least it wasn’t BBQ’d! :o ---
