Are the rumors about the horrifying things Mormons do to jello true?

One word:

celery.

I am guessing seventeen.

Restrain your killer ovaries, Nigel.  He seems to be in the 1st phase of waking up, and is still running from one extreme to the other...and that can happen at any age.  Soon enough, he'll realize the hideous truth.

Seventeen isn't a BAD thing, necessarily... I mean, if it weren't illegal... ;)

Damn, lady.  :mittens:

:thanks:

It sounds great; I made something similar last week, but with ginger and peanut butter also.

Nice job, for a crappy camera! I'd love to see what you could do with a GOOD camera.

Puppy;

My vegan ex who lives on my couch keeps eating my food. What should I do?

OK, once again I am going to have to concede that my area may be the exception, rather than the rule, when it comes to people's attitudes.

My feeling is, if someone comments negatively on the food you're eating, it's completely called-for to punch them in the mouth.

That said... breatharians, anyone? http://www.breatharian.info/

LOL, I should have said "a sheltered seventeen". Sometimes I forget that you're not an old fuck like me. :)

Come on, though. How many vegans have you actually encountered who insist on telling you about it when you haven't ASKED them? I have seen so many interactions where meat eaters ask vegans/veggies about their dietary choices, and then get all annoyed because the vegan is being "preachy".

JUST DON'T FUCKING BRING IT UP.

Problem solved.

I dunno. I guess I rarely encounter preachy vegetarians... in fact I can't think of a single one since I was maybe 22.

I am an avid devourer of meat, but I oppose factory farming because it's cruel (as well as unhealthy) so on some levels that makes me no different from the people you're railing against.

I tend to suspect that meat eaters who have a problem with vegetarians feel some sort of guilt over their dietary choices, and that's why it's such an issue for them. The rest of us, I think, don't actually care.

Yes, in order for us to live, other things have to die. The collateral damage for vegetarians is probably greater than most people will believe or admit. However, meat eater or not, I believe that we have some input in the extent of our damage... and I can't abide the "fuck 'em" attitude.

I think I get the gist of what you're trying to say here, about the willful blindness of hippie-dippie people who think that because they don't eat meat and are wearing hemp shoes, that somehow makes their footprint smaller and their value greater. However, those people are but one extreme end, and at the other end lies the obese SUV-driving MacDonald's-snacking Wal-Mart shopper of the Midwest, with their bloat and their wanton consumer gluttony and their "support our troops" magnet in the shape of a ribbon.

We have choices.

I am half Mormon, but my mom escaped so the only parts I was really raised with are connected to family reunions and major holidays, ie. food. Also a neurotic desire to make preserves.
