This reminds me of the good old days :)


It's like you said, every year, the forum ents emerge from the edge of lurkers forest and make the org their own once again for a short time, before retreating back in to the woods until the weather is favourable once more.

Broccoli became quite significant too, after a while. Probably worth a spot of study.

Believe it or not, i'd not eaten spam until very recently... Introduced to it by my girlfriend, and while the texture is initially worrisome... The taste soon wins one over, and I now enjoy a tin as a low carb snack! Very nice :)

Don't forget Aloe Vera. That meme infiltrated a few threads too.

What can I say, apart from:

Customer: Good Morning.

Wenslydale: Good morning, Sir. Welcome to the National Cheese Emporium!

Customer: Ah, thank you, my good man.

Wenslydale: What can I do for you, Sir?

Customer: Well, I was, uh, sitting in the public library on Thurmon  Street just now, skimming through "Rogue Herrys" by Hugh Walpole, and I  suddenly came over all peckish.

Wenslydale: Peckish, sir?

Customer: Esuriant.

Wenslydale: Eh?

Customer: 'Ee, Ah wor 'ungry-loike!

Wenslydale: Ah, hungry!

Customer: In a nutshell. And I thought to myself, "a little fermented  curd will do the trick," so, I curtailed my Walpoling activites, sallied  forth, and infiltrated your place of purveyance to negotiate the  vending of some cheesy comestibles!

Wenslydale: Come again?

Customer: I want to buy some cheese!                      

I know you know what I'm talking about, so I'll leave it there :python:

This would be a realistic conversation if i were to walk into a computer store and try to purchase an Amiga.

I say: I'd like to buy an Amiga!

Salesperson says: Come again?
Even my cat doesn\'t like me.

*shudder*

Even in the days when I would have had no qualms about the alleged content, I wouldn't have eaten it.

@Bloodline.

I'll give you 2 tips about spam.

1. fry it as it helps hide the taste. Also use lots of tomato sauce or HP sauce.

2. Don't eat spam but eat 'ham' instead. I know it's hard but i believe in you.

At least chicken feet are anatomically identifiable.
