Never eaten a S'more. I had to look it up to know exactly what it was.

Swedes are such uncivilized barbarians they don't know what S'mores are without looking them up on the internet!

I only know what a S'more, Smoe or whatever, is because Woody and Buzz mentioned it in Toy Story. Never heard of it before and never since - until now. I suspect if you want to know who is uncivilised - eating such defenceless little things after having impaled them on a big stick and then burn't them alive - then you should look closer to home.....

Pure evil.....

That was quick, I'm impressed.

I didn't mean impressed into the British Navy, we fixed that situation long ago.

Sometime around 1812?

Warspite,

I wouldn't take a Gorn's (as a species) compliment regarding speed very seriously. They have an extremely low bar for 'fast'.

Then again, the others don't crack me up like this Gorn does, so YMMV.

For the safety of the forumites, I wanted to make sure everyone is aware of the dangerous clown sightings in the Carolinas.
Here is a pic of one of them:

Oops, I'm not sure that was the right pic. This is definitely someone to be avoided:

RagingKrikket just posted in the Roll Call thread. Now each of us is allowed one post only in the Roll Call Thread, so if you've already posted there but want to express your loathing of the awful person known as RagingKrikket, feel free to do so here. I know I never, ever go into my backyard without a Bowie knife out of fear of the raging crickets that can be found there.

I thought it was cicadas that you had issues with?

Okay, thought for a second that I'd pissed somebody off in the space of my 8 posts last time I was around, good to hear you're just racist.[;)]

Not really - he detests all non-gorns equally!

I just saw sandman455 just posted in the roll call thread. I pay attention to that because he once posted a pic of his cat sitting on his desk looking intently at his PC screen which was showing the map from the game. It was the DEI on the screen, but some other forumite took that pic and added a thought balloon for the cat which said "where the f*** are his PBYs?" That was just one of the funniest things I ever saw, anywhere. I know it's ridiculous but how could anything really be more true than that? [:D]

Would be nice to see the evidence of the event.

Wish I could provide it, the forum member list search for old posts always returns something like 'search criteria don't match something or other'.

Add in which forum the search should take place and I think you will get search results.

I'm not technologically adept enough but I'm sure this was the forum. Probably back in 2012 or before, maybe even before 2010 when I registered myself.

edit: I had one of the dimensions off on the first version and had to correct it.

I planted some milkweed in my garden this year.

Young milkweed pods are delicious, parboil them to make them tender
then saute in butter or olive oil with garlic and a bit of salt.
