I hope ya get ur blade in time SL. Its all in good fun in here, so it would be nice to have some good competition.
Nope - just using his own words. Said he'd been collecting stuff for the first 40 years of his life, including ex's. Interesting that he could have collected an ex by the time he was two!
He couldn't help himself. There she was, sitting in the sandbox smiling while she peed in her Elmo diaper. He was hooked at first glance.
You have such a way with words!
Elmo's first appearance in print - 1973. Likely existed in Jim Henson's head well before that. But yeah, not on diapers.... So what was it - Pampers, or fabric with the little plastic pull-on cover?Now that's just plain silly.......
Elmo didn't exist back then!
It's Paul's ex. Nothing but cashmere touched her high falutin' fanny. Probably had a diamond studded stroller
Banish the 'shrooms!
I have a sister with that same neurosis. But remind April that since she signed up, she can submit her own 'shroom burger, and we're all itchin' to get to know her on this thread!
Because of some younger indescretions, I dispise mushrooms. Cannot stand the taste. To me mushrooms do not belong in food, just like mold does not belong on bread. Mushrooms and mold are the same thing, and are plain gross to me.
Depends what else yer putting on your burger!
Mushrooms on their own are
but match them with the right ingredients and they are delightful! Same as with olives.........What kind of "indiscretions" would cause someone to hate mushrooms?
Although I like mushrooms myself, I find with most people who dislike them it's a matter of texture rather than flavor (sometimes flavor, but not usually.) Although there's no good cure if you have a negative association with a bad experience (...or "indiscretions"), one means of dealing with the texture is to finely chop them and mix them in with other things. Blending them in with burger meat, for example, is one option that some people who don't like the texture alone can handle to get the flavor.
Some may say it's passe, but caramelized onion with sauteed mushrooms and peppers is still a long-standing fav with beef. Would work well on ostrich, too.
Yeah I agree I put up with mushies on somethings but prefer them out of my dish. Sorry Geeme it's both flavour and texture for me.
My number 1 hate is raw tomoato, the texure reminds me of runny snot and the sour taste make me think of sour rotten runny snot. If you even place a slice of tomato on my sammich and take it off again I will instantly know, it's EVIL and did I mention rotten runny snot.

Joey, you are my brother from down under! Cooked tomatoes, stewed tomatoes, ketchup, and all that is OK, but raw tomatoes just make me retch.
Only those who come from the PNW would understand the "younger indiscretions" when it comes to mushrooms. The psychedelic kind grow wild up here. Now the taste of mushrooms reminds me of that time.

Look at the noobs... tryin' to run game up in here with their "indiscretions". Tryin' ta sway votes if we post anything with said "bad ingreeds"!
Here's my take:
Thin sliced fresh plumb tomatoes are best with fresh cracked pepper and a sprinkling of salt... that's not a topping... that's IT.
Shrooms are AWESOME raw with some ranch dressing. Saute them with bacon fat and mix them with caramelized onions... that's a topping for some ridiculous grub... but I'd brush it off a burger and eat IT as the meal.
Olives??? They'll skool your noob a$$ if used correct!
Funny thing is, I defend all said "bad ingreeds", and none of them are in my burger.

Good friend of mine can't stand my fresh chunky salsa because of the big tomato chunks. So she puts it all in the blender, whizzz it up for a minute....it comes out the consistency of Brand XXX but still has the taste of XTC~~~~
Everyone's happy!
I've learned to eat 'shrooms and olives without hurling if there is enough pepperoni, sausage, and beer.

My "intuition" card has been vibrating for a while. If we're playin' "Clue", I'd say that SL and Geeme know each other, and "April" is on the sidelines for the swing vote. I'm smelling conspiracy. Come clean SL... is there an East WA Posse???
SL... Should we call it Rain-Shadow Posse instead? Holla back.
