My mother's 72, & very set in her ways. IOW, you can't tell her anything...

OK, shaving cream. ;-)

I wonder what they used in "Revenge of the Nerds"?

Canned whipped cream (or the equivalent from catering equipment)

It's a mix of cream and laughing gas. (kind of apropriate)

That's what growing up in a crawl space, and eating whatever crawls
by does to a young mind. Kind of sad in a way, but it did keep the bugs
and mice out of his foster parent's hovel.

I used to have a running joke about what happened to the trainees I sent
up to the comms riser on the 49th floor. Now I think I know how they
ended up.

Unfortunately. Like an old man that lived down the street from me.
He had emphysema, was on oxygen 24/7 and kept smoking. It put him in
the hospital four times in two years before the county health department
forcibly committed him to an assisted living facility where he couldn't
get any cigarettes. They decided that was cheaper than what it cost
them for the trips to a hospital.

Ayup. My girlfriend & I cooked a batch of quiches[0]. I gave one to my
mother on the assumption that she'd eat it over a week or two. She ended
up eating the whole thing in one day.

[0] Quiche Lorraine. It was the first time I'd blind-baked a pastry, so
I was quite proud of myself. ;^)

Maybe that's why he posts under the nym, Dorothy with the red shoes,
because his ruby high heels just slip on?

He probably reads posts insulting him, & says "There's no place like
home!", then clicks his heels together.

Actually, your list suggests a simple filter... if "From" character
count exceeds [pick a number]

Does it really matter?

Some people do that. A deacon at my church did, because he was
convinced he had no problem, as long as he wasn't on insulin. It cost
him his eyesight.

My wife is a (non-insulin dependent) diabetic and has been having some
trouble controlling her glucose level lately. She doesn't usually have
trouble, though will occasionally splurge on a desert. Last weekend
we took a short vacation up "North". The food was good. ;-)

Her doctor here has been less than helpful. In fact, he seems to be
actively fighting against her by prescribing BP drugs that she doesn't
need. I told her to try to find a new doctor but they're impossible
to find now (I haven't been able to find one) and Obonimable-Care
isn't going to help any.

You are pathetic, Thompson. If I wanted to get past your filter, I
could.

So show me you can, you little Sum Tiny Dong (*) Basturd.

Your fairy strap-on doesn't count ;-)

Now Jim, don't make me trot out one of your boiler-plate "Only
Jerks Need to Feed Trolls" sigs...

No, you almost always "enter" raging and cursing, or you rage and
curse as soon as you perceive the slightest disagreement.


You're an idiot. No rage. No curse. Just an observation of fact.

Nah, this particular building has 55 floors. ;^)

I've never made any pastries.

It's not as hard as it looks, if you're working from a good cookbook.
I do cook almost all of my meals,
though.

About 50% for me, because I'm a lazy bastard. ;^)

I don't because I won't be tempted to make things I'm not supposed to

Well, that sure sucks. :^(
You're the type they invented the crock pot and microwave oven for.

Yep, I love my uwave.
