Don't read too much into this. I look for any chance to reference this song.

Me too!

It's good stuff. At some point, some cops said it was the most realistic cop show ever.

Also, Ron Glass was one of the nicest people I've ever met. You may not believe in the concept, but you could literally feel that dude's aura. The guy just oozed peace and, dare I say it, serenity.

Unfortunately, even Shepherd Book isn't enough to make The Girl give it a decent chance.

While we're on the subject, I got the DVDs of the new MST, and liked it WAY more than I thought I would, but she's going to need to come around.

Throw me into the category that prefers brunettes, and glasses don't hurt.

Sharing this here because I think Haven will "enjoy" this one.

I stopped at a local convenience store for a coffee and a breakfast sandwich before work today.

I was the only one near the food pick-up counter, and I was waiting for order #300.

The first worker brings up a drink and says "Drink for 300."
I go over and grab my drink.
A short time later the other worker puts a bag on the counter and says "Food for 500."
Seeing nobody else around...and knowing how the numbering system works there...I ask "Did you mean 300?"
"No. It's 500."
"You're positive?"
*eyeroll from worker*
"Yes, I'm sure. This is a sausage croissant."
"That sounds like mine."
"Do you have your slip?"
I hand her the slip.
"Yes, this is your order, but that says 500, not 300."
"No. It's a 300. The other girl even also just called out 300."
"Well, we're just going to have to agree to disagree."

I know on FB you lamented the lack of teaching of critical thinking skills (and I agree) but I think there's also teaching a basic human decency of admitting that maybe you are wrong even if you are sure you aren't.

Yeah. I'm really disappointed in Harpua not just admitting that he's wrong.

I have always had a problem with 'agree to disagree'. It's much like 'comprise is where everyone wins' and other idiot beliefs that pervade the 'education' world.

Ignatz has a great point. While 'the customer is always right' is another idiot statement, people who deal with customers still have to be deferential to the customer at the very least until the customer proves that they are wholly unreasonable.

Was the number handwritten?

An argument rages at the HavenHome.

What's the difference between scrambled eggs and an omelette?

Is a plain omelette an omelette at all?

Please way in.

I’d rather weigh in if it’s all the same!


Scrambled eggs are supposed to be little chunks because you keep everything moving. An omelet is a mass off egg folded in half with stuff in it veggies cheese at the least

Omelet is smooth. Scrambles eggs has texture and should also be less fully cooked.

Nice catch. I started typing it, got to the word and stopped for a half a second after the w. But then I decided to go with the wrong homophone and see if anyone noticed.

Congratulations.

So, you're making a distinction between scrambled eggs and omelets, but a plain omelette is not an omelette by your definition, so what is it?

Like 'em slimy, do ya?

Are plain omelettes omelettes?

Why can't autocorrect make a decision on the spelling of omelet, omelette, omelets, and omelettes?

An omelet without anything in it is a waste of food. Why cook it that way if it's not containing anything?

And in my opinion, an omelet ought to have a pocket of contents, not just have them mixed throughout.

Truth be told, I am one who likes plain omelettes. But The Girl needed me to teach her how to make scrambled eggs, so there's plenty of embarrassment to go around.

I don't know if it's come up before, but I also put grape jelly on my omelettes and scrambled eggs. The Girl is thoroughly disgusted by it.

I do like cheese in my omelettes from time to time, but I really like them plain.

You mean you like your scrambled eggs overcooked and folded over.

I have no problem with the jelly, though I don't think I'd do it.
