    I made veggie pancakes this weekend--

    Potato
    Sweet Potato
    Carrots
    Green Onions

    Mix with some flour and an egg, cook in a skillet.

    Sweet potato pancakes sound like something I might kill a man over.

    Choose your weapon, sir!

    Irene just admitted to having a penis, everybody.

    Holy shit, Puzzle Quest is fun. The Wii version's not ideal, but it's still fuckawesome.

    It was fun for the DS, I don't think I need to bother buying other versions right?

    Probably not. It didn't mention anything about extras on top of the handheld versions.

    The DS version didn't have cooldowns, so you could spam some of those screen-clearing attacks if you had a way to recoup mana. That's the major difference. Also online play and downloadable extras.

    Isn't egg a no-no for vegetarian?

    I ain't no veggie.

    Also I think some of them eat eggs. Vegans don't though.

    I need to wear more revealing garments than I normally would (and I dislike those sorts, typically) in these transitional seasons since otherwise I get an uneven and insufficient tan that will make it impossible to wear more revealing clothes when I don't have a choice.

    Since this manifests itself in things even as minor as where boys and womens' shirts sleeves end, I spend a lot of time lounging in front of windows with no shirt on. :/

    All the "hot" girls here use tanning-beds.

    Women that use tanning beds always look like they have skin as tough as saddle bags.

    Ehhh... not always. Some of them tan responsibly, and it doesn't have that effect. Their skin-tone still generally doesn't look real, though. And that's off-putting.
    Seriously, Pale is much more attractive than artificially tanned.

    Only if you're a vegan.

    A long time ago on these forums, I had an argument with some vegans who put their kid on an all vegan diet. It got a little vicious because I basically called them stupid and wrong. About a year later, the dude involved came back and was complaining that his kid had been diagnosed with ricketts.

    I wish that I hadn't let my arrogance get to me, because I let him have it and basically straight out said it was his fault.

    Isn't egg a no-no for vegetarian?

    Veggie being short for vegetable, not vegetarian.

    Recipe:

    Ingredients
    2 medium-sized baking potatoes
    2 medium-sized sweet potatoes
    2 carrots
    4 tbsp minced green onion tops
    1 tbsp flour
    1 beaten egg
    1/2 tsp salt
    1/8 tsp black pepper

    Directions
    1) Peel potatoes.
    2) Shred potatoes and carrot.
    3) Wrap shredded potatoes and carrot in paper towels and squeeze the fucking moisture out.
    4) Combine ingredients.
    5) Heat some vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
    6) Drop mixture into skillet by spoonfuls and flatten to form thin pancakes.
    7) Cook until browned on bottom (2-5 minutes), turn and cook other side.

    I thought you were using "man" in that male chauvinistic way to refer to all humans. Does that mean you'd hand over any sweet potato pancakes if I asked you since I'm not a man?

    He was like a big brother for me. He died nearly 20 years ago, though.

    Being right is one thing, being over vicious and non-sympathetic because you were right is another. Especially to someone who clearly realised what they had done.

    They used soy milk and all this other crap instead. Said they had passed it through some 'vegan nutritionist' (which I immediately assumed to mean "random fucking idiot") and whatever. Basically, the lack of protein, iron and other things in the diet led to the obvious development of ricketts, that I predicted straight off.

    I don't think people like it when I make H/A threads, so I'm just going to ask here.

    Is it or is it not creepy or otherwise not kosher if I try to make friends with and insert myself into the social system of the high school down the street? It's $13 round-trip off-peak fare into New York City, and the other 'major city' (White Plains) is $4 round-trip on an infrequent bus and even less likely to work since ... well, neither of those are very likely to work since I don't know anyone and "oh, I live 45 minutes away, I just came here to make friends" seems like a poor hook.

    I really want friends. I have limited means. I'm also going on 21. I feel really icky about the idea but I don't know what else I could do.

    There was some woman on TV with her kid and they were on a diet that did not allow any meat, grain, milk or anything heated. The kid looked /really/ pale and he was very small for his age (but I guess all the crap we put in meat this days has something to do with that). The kid said that when he was cold his mother would pull his meal through the blender so it would be a little warmer.

    Thankfully, it was on Dutch TV and the co-host called the mother an extremist and that he hoped the child protection agency was watching as she was clearly not taking good care of her child.

    These people were both extreme and that kids aren't breastfed forever anyway. There are in fact people who won't breastfeed their babies, trying weird 'alternatives' or whatever. I frankly don't get it, but some people are seriously fucking stupid.
