why do you hate Ted and Teddy?

Exactly. Just like all 3 of our founding founders.

Plated, Cornhole and Che....

Nevermind.

For some of us, in person.

And on multiple coasts.

PLF in the raw!?!

Re: Caption?
 

Fringey, you responded to my post that said, "which is which" with a response (that now seems to fit with another post) that said you weren't sure if I was or wasn't saying something about hidden fat--hence, my confusion. To answer that post, you're reading too much into it. If you asked me if I thought you looked fat and I thought you looked fat, I would say so. But you don't.

Part of the reason why you would know this is true is because of the whole patentpara fiasco here on the board. Since no one wants to re-live that (other than Hank, apparently), pm me if you don't remember it. Hank's last joke about me pm'ing him about your hair looking nice comes from that.

That is all.

Re: Caption?
 

and, although completely meaningless, you have not gained weight (at least from the photos). I say "meaningless" because what you need to do is get yourself back together physically. whether you have lost 10 lbs or gained 10 pounds doesn't matter right now, and people telling you to worry about that are misguided*. Eat a cookie if that's what you want to do and keep working hard on the continuous improvement you have shown these months.**

You have to be kidding me.

I love this quote:
As opposed to the secrecy with which most people share and learn about bacon?

ETA: This should probably go in the cooking thread, but.....

http://bacn.com/media/uploads/chocol...ered-bacon.jpg

Ingredients


Fletcher's Thick Sliced Naturally Smoked Pepper Crust Bacon
Ghirardelli Gourmet, 72% cacao, extra bittersweet baking chocolate

First you take the bacon and broil it in the oven for a nice, even crispness.

Then, carefully melt Ghirardelli gourmet, 72% cacao, extra bittersweet baking chocolate in a double-boiler.

Next dip the pepper-crusted savory goodness into the rich melted sweetness, leaving just a "handle" of uncoated bacon.

Let them cool on wax paper.

Serve at room temp.

Fringey, if we send you some as a gift can you eat it even though it is high cholestrol?

Re: This is the thread where the fringster comes back with teeth
 

If I were to receive bacon covered in chocolate, I could probably eat it but mmmmmm, there'd be competition. I am not overly worried about fattening, though it is frustrating that I can't do aerobic exercise. I may make cookies later on today and eat some.

Re: This is the thread where the fringster comes back with teeth
 

are you recovered enough to receive criticism of your grammar?

did someone post about this?

if I was the young man I'd be pissed my "dunk on James" film was lost, but I understand LeBron's position. Here he is making an appearance, playing not at full speed, and some guy rises on him? He would either need to play full out, which makes him not able to play with these guys, or allow every knucklehead in the gym to dunk on him.

Re: This is the thread where the fringster comes back with teeth
 

At this point, LeBron and Nike should have fun with it and use it in a commercial, donating some cash to the kid's school to improve their program.

Nah. Just a very toned and fit classic pear shape, with augmentation up top to balance things out.

I like this quote:

Pulling a Caruso
 

Apparently Variety is reporting that Padma is leaving Top Chef for some sitcom. Why, Padma, why??

http://la.eater.com/archives/2009/07...g_top_chef.php

Re: Pulling a Caruso
 

That's just dumb. Does she really think her sitcom is going to be a SMASH HIT? I'd keep the TC hosting gig as long as possible, if I were a superhot Indian supermodel like her. Actually, if I were her, I'd probably be too busy looking at myself naked in a mirror to hold a steady job, so perhaps it is a good move on her part.

Re: Pulling a Caruso
 

One has to wonder why she couldn't do both.

Re: Pulling a Caruso
 

Yeah, weird. I figured it must be another network, but no it's NBC.

Re: Pulling a Caruso
 

I don't think the FCC would approve of that.

But maybe they could do an internet stream of it. For Hank. When he catches up.

Re: Pulling a Caruso
 

Well, I am not surprised. I like Top Chef as much as the next person, but she has probably had enough of the prima donnas and the oversalting. And the "California Flair" -- remember that guy? And the "I don't think Tom likes me" guy. And has Gail Simmons been replaced by Toby Young, or is she coming back? Toby Young would be reason enough for me to quit.

Padma is on to Pantene commercials and (likely) bad sitcoms, and I say Godspeed.

Re: Pulling a Caruso
 

flinty mentioned three activities, so your "both" is confusing. I believe her looking at herself naked could be a viable TV show, I mean with some movements added IYKWIMAITTYD.

Re: This is the thread where the fringster comes back with teeth
 

Apropos of nothing, I am sick and tired of all of the complaining about the overabundance of complaints about the overplaying of Hallelujah.

Carry on.

Re: Pulling a Caruso
 

Well, as there are only items that she is known to be doing/have done publicly....

But I fully endorse your and Flinty's suggestion that all three should be brought to the airwaves.

Re: Pulling a Caruso
 

I am going to refrain from calling you a fucking bitch because I am nice and I respect my elders. Plus you hit hard.

Re: Pulling a Caruso
 

Toby Young fan?

Don't get me wrong, I like Padma and think she's hot and sexy. Also, I weep for the future of Top Chef without her. I am just conveying that I can understand her decision.

Ohhh, you liked the California Flair guy.

Re: Pulling a Caruso
 

Shit. Outed.

Re: Pulling a Caruso
 

i think you offended by boiling several males down to a single insecurity or peculiarity. that is no better than when flinty reduces a woman to her body parts, a piece of meat for him to look at.

and of course flinty would be afraid of a world where a male is characterized solely by his insecurities and peculiarities- of course he would lash out to the suggestion. try to think more about how others feel gwnc.

just when the jacko stuff finally starts dying down this hits: Anyone planning on paying $10 to see the film?

Re: Pulling a Caruso
 

I tried to read this post, but I couldn't get past the first, pointless paragraph.

On another note, check out this Sprite commercial: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nqucc...layer_embedded Good God. And to tie it into the re line above, "With this ad, I think Sprite. just blew it's load."
