Of serial killing?

You'd look less like a serial killer if you'd STOP GLOWERING

I don't know how many times we have to have this conversation.

xpost Well, you might also consider shaving and not carrying that big knife around with you all the time.

Not that it bothers me, of course (cower cower)

You'd look less like a serial killer if you'd STOP GLOWERING

But we know what happens when John smiles:

lxy! i meant 'stroppy' in a good way!

Yeah, there really aren't any good options, are there.

dammit XPOST

and wilter: i voted like 3 times on the marmite poll, plus i made jordan vote. so technically vegemite won.

Attend the tale of John Justen.
His soul was blanched, so was his skin.
He played guitars for gentlemen
Who never thereafter were heard of again.
He drunk a drink, saw movies then,
Did John Justen, The Demon Drinker of HAAAAAAAASTINGS

He kept a shop in good ol' Minn
Of fancy clients without much sin.
And how much of his cash was sunk?
In seeing all of them impeccably drunk
By John Jus-,
By John Justen, the Demon Drinker of HAAAAAAAAAAAAAASTINGS

That song is screaming for a video.

RR - I voted for Marmite based on the fact that it had the same first syllable as "marmalade"

awwww sara <3 <3

Well, what can I say, "Vegemite" sounds like an unpleasant thing to eat.

marmalade is awful though

(I do await the final verdicts from our distinguished panel of tasters, of course)

and no i dont care what paddington bear has to say on the subject xpost

Marmalade is too sweet, generally, BUT it sounds better than "Vegemite," which sounds like someone has boiled vegetables into a paste for you to spread on your morning toast.

yeah i hate marmalade too. but i also hate grapefruit.

Marmalade is awesome, wtf

(xp: SO IS GRAPEFRUIT, DOUBLE WTF)

Wait, isn't marmalade usually made with oranges?

I like grapefruit myself...

Here is what I want on my toast: BLACKBERRY JAM PLEASE

Unless it is a late night snack, in which case, peanut butter.

not a huge fan of oranges, but marmalade always tastes bitter to me. which is also why i don't like grapefruit.

Here is what I want on my toast: THANDIE NEWTON

I hated marmalade until I was pregnant with 4lex, when I then ate it every morning for a while, and now I never eat it anymore.

ugh, Dan, she's awfully THIN

But very pretty, it's true.

Maybe the thinness works for spreading on toast, though. I WOULD NOT KNOW

i think we can settle this by all agreeing that peanut butter is the greatest thing ever

Unless it is a late night snack, in which case, kimberly elise

Peanut butter is kind of a miracle food, crunchy or creamy, it's all good.

BUT I don't want that natural peanut butter that you have to stir up; I want the processed kind that is bad for you and that tastes right.

oh god, has anyone else been subjected to the utter horror that is sunflower butter

Dan, I was going to suggest that you might prefer Gina Torres, but then again I have no idea who Kimberly Elise is, so.

SUNFLOWER butter?!

I think I've had almond butter baked in a cake, but that is about it.

NATURAL PEANUT BUTTER IS A SHITTY JOKE CARRIED OUT BY AUSTRIANS ON THE GOOD PEOPLE OF THE WORLD IN ORDER TO SAP OUR OPTIMISM

dont even get me started on sunflower butter

I knew somehow that John would be on the same page with me about this.

sunflower (seed) butter is basically like eating the sensation of being punched repeatedly in the gonads until you shit yourself

wtf, was there a huge sunflower butter trend that I missed in the past few years or what?

It tastes like sick cats

If by "the past few years" you mean "1984", then yes.

Well, that explains everything. We never had much food in our house, really.

Did your mothers buy that?! WHERE?!

a friend of mine is alergic to peanuts and has to eat sunflower butter

i can never decide whether to laugh behind his back or in his face

It seems like almond butter would be better... at least in the abstract...?

My mom joined the HSTNGS Co-op briefly as part of a health kick. The dried fruits were good but the carob chips were kind of unforgivable. She made us continue to eat their shitty, shitty real food substitutes until the day she brought home some sunflower butter. Not even she could choke that horrific shit down and she doesn't have tastebuds.

(ps I will absolutely take Gina Torres, too)

I'm trying to figure out how I had forgotten about CAROB CHIPS. They did have a moment back in the early 80s

You can buy good stuff at co-ops now, actually, but there are still scary things in them, too.

The thing about sunflower butter vs peanut butter is that peanut butter is nothing like chewing up a bunch of peanuts and spitting them onto a piece of bread, but sunflower butter is almost EXACTLY like chewing up a bunch of sunflower seeds and spitting them onto a piece of bread.

will i get kicked out if i confess that i don't like peanut butter?

xpost EW!

A. just came in from work and told me that 1. he liked carob chips as a child and he used to make his mother buy them for him and 2. he has tried Vegemite and he claims it is revolting.
