....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.

You know, a year ago that might have sounded pretty good. Today? Blahhhh, it sounds... icky.

Funny how tastes change yet the taste for Dove Milk Chocolate NEVER changes!

I like trees.

Trees make me gag.

i still dont like fish.

me either.

Do fish grow on trees?

As Ewell Gibbons explained, "Many parts of the pine tree are edible"

Who?

Me tooooo.

Who?

Ewell Gibbons was a naturalist who wrote "Stalking the Wild Asparagus"

He is probably best known today for being in Grape Nuts commercials in the '70s and '80s. Grape Nuts called on Ewell Gibbons in order to suggest that Grape Nuts was a very healthy and natural thing to eat. In this series of commercials, as part of the process of demonstrating his claim to fame as a naturalist, Ewell Gibbons famously explained: "Many parts of the pine tree are edible."

Some of us are so ancient that we actually remember seeing these commercials (like me).

Rumor has it that Ewell Gibbons died eating astroturf. That last sentence is not true. The rest is true.

Here is a Euell Gibbons Grape Nuts Commercial on YouTube. I know you will enjoy it. I also point out that one thing I learned from this evenings exchange is the correct way to spell ol' Euell's name. So make yourself a big bowl of popcorn and curl up in front of the computer and enjoy this Euell Gibbons Grape Nuts Commercial. And then I'm sure you'll be in the mood to head on down that ol' ribbon o' highway and get yourself a box o' Grape Nuts. I know I will.

To further encourage healthful eating including the nutty taste of Post Grape Nuts as part of a healthy breakfast, I share yet another significant Grape Nuts commercial from Yesteryear. Euell Gibbons is not involved.

OMG! I am so old! I remember those Grape Nuts commercials! Did you ever eat a pine tree? LOL

Pinenuts are better than Grapenuts.

I can think of some other nuts that are even better than pinenuts and grapenuts!!!!! :omg:

Oh so wicked! :whoo:

OMG! I am so old! I remember those Grape Nuts commercials! Did you ever eat a pine tree? LOL

I'm convinced that I'm eating pine trees every time I eat Grape Nuts. The taste is pretty close. I guarantee you that there are certainly no grapes in Grape Nuts. For that matter, I don't even think grapes have nuts. From my point of view the only real question is: "How much wood could a wood chuck chuck if a wood chuck could chuck wood." The answer is in every box of Grape Nuts. Every time I eat a bowl, I feel like I want to chuck wood.
