I like making up my own slogans, BeerGoggle, like: "The only good thing to come out of the 80's was me" and "Akiva: Constantly exceeding your low expectations since 1985".

Are you a vegetarian, Foster?


One of my favorites is "You can't hug children with nuclear arms."

That sounds lush to me. I'd quite happily eat that. I bought a slow cooker the other day and i've been well impressed with myself. I made a sausage and bacon hotpot and then, are you ready for this, home made rice pudding with nutmeg.... TAAADDAAAA. I know it's not that exciting but i was rather chuffed i invested in such a god given gift to the world... it is actually a students dream. Home cooked food with very little effort :)

hey foster wanna be my new years date?

Everybody needs one of those things! My mom makes the most excellent French Stew with beef and carrots and all manner of amazing stuff in it. She simply throws it in the cooker in the morning, and by supper we've got the most fantastic meal. I love it! You'll use it for many years after school, as well.

No.


GEEKS are cute:
Rivers Cuomo, Zachary Levi, Elijah Wood, Zachary Quinto (Basically Jewish men, and men who appear Jewish)

NERDS are superficially sweet, yet sour to the core:
Willy Wonka Candy Company... and others.

Lol there's loads out there... i just love little things like that. Me and my friends have taken to writing them down when one liners happen and it's the funniest thing reading them back. My fave has to be Fuggles lol. She's one of my best mates and myself and Shippy are evil to her but she loves it... i set fire to her hair not long ago BUT SHE ASKED ME TO DO IT! Yeah, we're gonna get locked up eventually. Anyway i'll introduce her as Fuggles which seems really cute... try and work it out

I'm not a vegetarian. But I'm Kosher. So we only eat ugly creatures. And we kill them with dignity.

Posted: 12/31/07 at 11:08am

Ah! Well, geese are indeed beautiful, but my friend killed it with dignity. I promise.

Foster, do you really keep Kosher? I didn't know that. Werd to my Kosher bro.

Hah...I am too dumb to be a nerd, so I am definitely a geek.

I do keep Kosher. Amen, Kosher bro.

I'm kosher when I eat Oreos.

Or so says my great aunt.

Posted: 12/31/07 at 11:19am

Nobody's really eveexplained to me exactly what it means to keep Kosher. Somthing to do with meat and cheese...or somthing. Enlighten me, please?

The Laws of Kashrut (or Keeping Kosher) involve any dietary laws that the Jews have, so they include not mixing meat and milk (I have separate dishes and I wait a certain amount of time after eating meat until I can eat dairy), not eating certain animals (Birds of prey, shellfish, dolphins, and yes...pigs, etc.), having animals killed a certain way (A quick cut to a certain vein in the throat by a perfectly sharp knife) and drained of all blood.

Isn't the rule for marine animals that they must have scales? That's why you can't eat shark or swordfish. At least that's what I understand.

Posted: 12/31/07 at 11:27am

Thank you, Akiva. Nobody's ever been able to explain it. My town has a VERY small Jewish community.

I find studying different religions very interesting. There's so much to learn, and it's all so different! I love it.

[Link Larkin Wanabe]

Posted: 12/31/07 at 11:27am

Scales and gills, yup. And for mammals the rule is that is has to have split hooves and chew its cud (Pig has the first, but not the latter).

Wow! That's so ineteresting!

*sets down his ham and cheese sandwich*

hm, What are we talking about?

Posted: 12/31/07 at 11:32am

Is there any back story as to why? As in, a particular reason?

[tazber]

Posted: 12/31/07 at 11:33am

kosher people don't eat shrimp or crab, which are probably the 2 ugliest creatures around.

[Link Larkin Wanabe]

Posted: 12/31/07 at 11:33am

Hah, all my friends love asking hypothetical questions about it when we are out at a pub and I can't really eat. "If I ordered it without THIS on it, could you eat it?", "If the bowl they made it in was brand new, could you have this?".

Akiva

Um... weren't a herd of pigs possessed? It's been a while since I've even read my bible, much less went to church.

I don't think pigs were clean after that.

And I LOVE shrimp and crab.

I love Marine life. They are the most prehistoric creatures we have.

*hungry voice*

and they're all kinds of tasty. :)
