I hate it when people post just to post.....

....like when clearly the post has no relevance or adds no value to the OP's question or concern.

Like this:

OP Question: I am having trouble finding a good fish recipe I like...can anyone help?

Response: I hate fish! Fish makes me gag!

Can someone explain the purpose of this? I mean, if you don't like fish, then why dont you just move on to the next thread? Who really cares what makes you gag or not gag???? I know I don't.

  • I'm having a very hard time understanding why three out of four guinea pigs have the first letter of their name capitalized, but the fourth one (cuddles), has the first letter of its name in lower cas

  • well, i respectfully disagree. I don't think its acceptable to do it. I strongly dont think that its ok to do it, and i do not think that someone who's doctor didnt tell them about PB's who comes here

Hi Brandy

We do have Dennis the Menace here and chicklets, we don't have the programme unfortunately, but it sounds hilarious. You really made me laugh with your description. :smile2::lol::P

Thanks ingyrob, see if you can rent the movie sometime it's pretty funny. Walter Mathau (sp) played Mr. Wilson in the movie Dennis the Menace and there were some other famous actors in it as well. brandyII

Did you know, that when you eat the chewable pepto then drink coffee your tongue gets polka dotted? I didn't... then I read the box ... it darkens your tongue

Just thought you might like to know....

Hey what are all of you doing to get more fiber in your diet?

My portions are so small that not getting enough fiber is causing problems.

I add the clear liquid fiber to my breakfast protein shakes. 2 teaspoons adds almost half your RDA. I've been doing this for about a month now, and even though it took some time to get back to normal, I'm happy to say - I'm normal... :wub:

Each and every day, I see more examples that prove the public school system is failing to edumacate the masses. I know you've seen the signs...

I teach college-level biology labs (and occasionally lecture classes, when my department needs me to), and you aren't kidding! I usually have a mix of four kinds of students: 1) direct-from-high-school freshmen; 2) upperclassmen that put off taking some of their gen-ed classes; 3) non-traditional (read: older) students; and 4) students repeating the class due to previous failure.

Usually, the older students are by far my best students, then the upperclassmen (as long as they aren't Greek or athletes - those are usually fairly bad, in my experience). The first-time freshmen are usually terrible, unless they were over-achievers in high school. The repeat offenders will usually at least make an attempt to study, and in many cases, they'll try not to repeat the same mistakes they made in the past. My freshmen, though, have really destroyed my faith in the public school system (and some private and/or home school systems - the ones that utterly fail to teach modern, widely accepted scientific theory). Unless they were the cream of the crop and taught to strive for educational excellence, many of them are lazy and expect to be given an A on a silver platter (do the bare minimum or less of studying, don't bother to attempt extra credit, don't ask questions, etc.).

The students I really love are the international students. They may not make the best grades because of basic language barriers, but they generally make a genuine attempt to apply themselves, ask the most questions, and really try to understand the material. This semester, I had the most international students that I've ever had. I had one from the Middle East, one or two from India, a couple from Africa, one from Japan, one that I think was either Portuguese or Filipino, and one from an eastern European country.

I put a couple teaspoons of benefiber in my cup of tea every day and usually drink about two per day. I can't always eat salads. brandyII
