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

No kidding...I'm here 9 hours a day and the vending machine is VISIBLE to me. I sit in my cubby and I can see the neon glow and sometimes I hear the Twix saying, "you know you want me...come get me baby."

But then it gets weird and creepy...I won't share that part.

Poor BBK and Glou! I work where there is a multi-national food court in the complex. Hence why I bring my lunch every day - otherwise I would be feasting every day. I don't even walk through the food court - I enter through a back door to avoid the aromas...freshly baked croissants...

He thinks she's pretty. He said, "but long distance is hard to do." He is too funny!

:thumbup:

If I'd only remembered to bring margaritas. I had a delightful Water, vintage 2009, pleasant but not aggressive, with just a hint in the back of chlorine... Ya know, I so don't get wine snobs....I guess I'll have to stick to the tap.

:D

need taps- i have too much zucchini & need to cook....did a bunch today - sent to slim; just don't like frozen veggies.

Oh Lu wish I was there to help. I have made zucc pickles in the past - not a crisp pickle but more like a chow. (We need something to distract Plain because otherwise this topic is going to become peverted. Quick, someone take your clothes off!)

Hel-looo... I'm that nerd that is carrying around a little lunch sack along with a metallic bottle for water. Yep, that's me. :D

I carry my thermoses (thermi?) and my lunch bag...1 thermos coffee, 1 fruit smoothie or soup...

DD did very well with her surgery. She was a crack up when she "woke up". She was asking the weirdest questions - how many shots to numb my mouth, can I bite my tongue off, how did you get the teeth out, etc. She has always been curious and wanted to know why??? I think that is the math nerd in her.

Math: Least favorite subject. The kids at school just laugh at me - never have understood, never will. I just use my super cool, bedazzled calculator to add/subtract/multiply/divide.

Ktork - glad DD is fine; and love the questions! I remember asking my doc at my first surgery (age 5) why they wore green in the OR etc....

Ummm...but how do you know when your calculator isn't working right? (I double check numbers manually - even doing taxes)

Anyway, due to my "sparring" with others, I gave them all a visual of my sparring get-up -- red boxing gloves and blue tutu. :smile2:

:D

Croissant dough and bite size candy bars - damn, that sounds sooooo good!

ICK!!

Heart - have a great weekend. I love my cork kitchen floor. I am a firm believer in 'if you haven't used it/worn it in 12 months, then out it goes. Not a hoarder.

Well, I typed out a response to last night's posting and my internet ate it. I don't have time to retype it. I'll just say good morning!

Morning Slim! My first response where nowhere too. Hmm. Conspiracy???

Morning all!!

Edited by tapshoes
typo..

Morning Tap! I can't sleep, too much to get done and not enough time to do it. Waiting for grocery store to open at 6.

If my calculator isn't working, I would never know, unless it is a number of 10 or smaller :smile2:

Michelle~ Have fun this weekend!

TPG~ You still filling out that paperwork? Thought you might have pulled an all nighter just to get it done and prove that it doesn't take a week!:thumbup:

My DS had his first football game last night and they got stomped on! 35-0, ouch!! He said he had a good game, I was home with DD, so didn't have to sit and watch it. So they have practice today, ugh, to work on blocking. Of course the coach makes practice from 11-12:15, right in the middle of the day on a Friday before a long weekend. Men!

We all were expecting this paperwork to be done by now.:thumbup:

Men do some strange things.:D

Sounds great! I'd like to chill. We're mostly relaxing. Sat running errands, and Sun is Indian Cuisine night at my friends. They can cook so good and DD has been bugging them for Indian food. I really can't get those spices right.

Plans for the weekend...nope, I got nothin'.

Now how depressing is that??? BAH!

i think it sounds wonderful honestly!

i like the idea of "chow" - got a pot of zuc/corn chowder going now to freeze up....have about a dozen more to play w/.

NOTHING going on this wkend for us. DH is back in town & just wants to veg out - my brother/fiance' & dogs are coming out to BBQ tom & smoke some meat :smile2:

tee'd that one up for plain as well.

I don't have a single plan for the weekend. I am going to veg all weekend. I might clean (yuck). I will try to figure out some more of Lu's recipes to freeze for the future. That is my weekend in a nutshell.

I hope you all have a wonderful holiday weekend (said as though I won't be on here all freaking weekend)!

You guys say you got 'nothing' but I'm reading visiting with friends/family and dinners out. That's something!

So, I'll see you here Slim! Unless of course you spend time on Facebook - at which case I won't see you.

I'll be here. I don't quite get FB. I play the games, but my posting and stuff is done here. I am not quite bright enough for FB.

Maybe posts are now being deleted before they officially post. :smile2:

:thumbup:

...crickets...

We're slammed at work today! I'm glad - hate being bored.

I think being bored gets me into trouble....

:thumbup:

What is it about idleness being the devil's playground? :smile2:

Thermos (thermi) - LOL Thermosesese??:smile2:

No weekend plans for me either. And, I have finished my paperwork. Boy, all that checking of little boxes was sooooo complicated. I can see how it could take a whole week for one page. :D I only had to ask my sister how to spell my name twice.

My computer was shooting blanks last night...or it was Private Messageus Interruptus.. Lost more than one post on here :thumbup: last night. Or....Beth's right and our mere thoughts are being deleted. Big Brother, anyone?

Anybody have any idea what happened to HH on FB? Haven't seen him in awhile. (Donna, no need to respond here :D)

Hope you all have a great weekend!! TTFN.
