Noble Dust

Maybe in the past week or so, but overall in the past couple months I’ve found the quality to be quite strong. As mayor of the shoutbox I keep a close...

Yes, but corpuscle is one of the English languages greatest treasures.

The absurdity of mine is more appealing to the masses.

Corpuscle sherbet…? (Americans pronounce it sure-bert)

It’s a tough balance.

In fact it happened yesterday while at work. I was watching a baseball game and ringing up a customer at the same time (because I'm an intrepid, hard ...

Thanks for the detailed explanation. I also have a little snort that I do in similar situations, and the results can be similar.

Did you actually laugh though?

I believe Jamal is just joshing you about, as we do in the shoutbox.

I was thinking more jamboree.

The what?

Gentlemen. As mayor of the shoutbox it is my duty to inform you that things have gotten much too serious here. Tonight I will be getting back in touch...

You're just an encyclopedia of information, @"BC". I've resolved to forgoing google and just tagging you with a post in the shoutbox any time I want t...

:party:

Well, it was the white dude in this dynamic duo who made arguably the most successful youtube food show, so maybe he's more like a major youtube celeb...

I just spotted a medium-grade YouTube celeb on the train and was reminded that post Covid, celebrity sightings in the city have become rather rare.

I agree about pineapple on pizza, but that’s because I don’t like sweet and savory together except for Thai food, but most Thai restaurants here use t...

I see you've been vociferously googling.

Ohioans are generous folk, and generally happy that anyone is talking about Ohio at all. The merits of mediocrity.

Tornadoes tend to develop on flat plains, so yes, they are probably the most prevalent in the Midwest, if I’m not mistaken.

To @"T Clark" I give a B- lowered to a C+ because he’s Amurican.

I’ve never been to Dayton, but I can picture the Daytonese eating potatoes. There are tornadoes in Ohio, but only the west and part of the south conta...

To the contrary, vinaigrette based pasta salad was more common place than mayo based Mac salad. And ketchup was a common hot dog topping. Your Ohio lo...

Gentlemen. Can we all agree that sausages are delicious and that English grammar is completely illogical? Thank you.

:chin:

Who woke up? There's no subject to this sentence. I'm very similar to @"Jamal" in that I require complete clarity when it comes to sentence structure....

Gentlemen. Salad is indeed an excellent food for the warm weather. Likewise, although Jammy is an obnoxious pedant, he is right about grammar, though ...

So soul-crushingly destructive and weepingly gorgeous at the same time: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ps2owKAzTDM&ab_channel=BendikGiske-Topic

It's for your own good, Hani. Sometimes painful experiences are necessary to lead to the good in life. You will one day learn, when you're older. I pr...

Gentlemen. I just need to alert you that last night I made a very typical American pasta salad, consisting of rotini, cherry tomatoes, red bell pepper...

Your friend sounds rather coarse. I like a coarse man, so this works for me. I prefer a medium rare steak, not a blue one.

Yes - well.

I take issue with this wrap. Steak, properly enjoyed, should be a feature on it's own, not a protein in a wrap. Good steak stands up on it's own, whil...

They're one in the same, dude.

"Pocket": that indefinable space in which the drummer finds the groove in such an effortless manner that even people who don't dance can't help but mo...

I shall rebut this challenge soon. Life has become strange for a bit.

What happened was I joined this forum. Look where that’s gotten me.

thanks, t’Votsop.

I think I had more friends and was less jaded when I was 26. I feel like I’ve aged rather quickly in my 30s. But with age comes wisdom, and as I’m uni...

Not exactly what I was looking for from you, BC. Now, now.

Of course. Now, which olive oil did you choose? It's interesting how the use of "now" at the beginning of a phrase can change things. In this case, I ...

She seems alert and poised for what's next. I like that.

What a beauty. :love:

Happy birthday @"javi2541997". Please eat an extra tomato toast with an olive oil of your choice for me.

Had I been chased by many different dog breeds, I might have a different opinion of them. Actually, growing up I didn't like dogs because my aunt (the...

I wonder if you'd say that had you spent 8+ years in NYC, the epicenter of rich, entitled asshole dog owners, who's dogs would not survive 2 hours in ...

I don't mind dogs; what I don't like is entitled rich dog owners.

And an 80's pop band that gets a bad rap as well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jggxmc9yMwA

This was my favorite bit.
