Oh well, I understand, different people have different tastes.catchpenny wrote:Your description sounds absolutely disgusting.ExEmGe wrote: Our local pub serves haggis. It comes in what are clearly slices from a sausage shape with a plastic skin. Nevertheless, deep fried with a couple of fried eggs and some thick crustry bread and about a quarter of a bottle of tomato sauce it is very tasty.
Don't eat the skin though, it may be more hygenic than a sheep's stomach but it plays merry hell with the digestion!
But you dont have to eat the bread if you don't want to.

Thanks, David; I wouldn't eat those either. I've never tasted them, but I don't like the look or smell of them. LOL
And, Andy, of course the bread is the only thing I would eat! (As you know, probably. LOL)
I know it doesn't make sense, but I decide I don't like things if they don't smell or look right---I don't have to taste them to know I don't like them. I know; I'm weird!

Well no, turnips don't look too appetizing in the wild, but cooked and mashed and combined with brown sugar... yummMC3 wrote:Thanks, David; I wouldn't eat those either. I've never tasted them, but I don't like the look or smell of them. LOL
I do think this thread is totally hijacked

Then why do some people persist in calling them neeps?aradlaw wrote:Turnipsmomof3Chihuahuas wrote:

Yep! Oops! And who's the hijacker? *raises hand* Sorry! I know, Penny. Go figure. Turnips? Tur-neeps? Neeps? *shrugging* And, nope, David, there's still that odd smell with them there "neeps." Ick! (And, yes, bad grammar intentional.) There's never anything I really like much at Thankgiving dinner either (when we go it's because it's a "duty." Aaack!). Except mashed potatoes & a little turkey.

And now we return you to our regularly scheduled topic!
MC4? (Well, if one C stands for "cat"--back-porch feral cat, that is---then technically that's my nick, but, nah, I'll stick to MC3.)

Rats, I killed the thread! Sorry! Come on back, everyone, with the funny/strange "You're reading WHAT!?" subject. It was interesting!

I just misread "A brief grammar of the Portuguese language" as "A BAD grammar of the Portuguese language."

I keep reading 'The Virginian' as 'The Virgin.'
So little space, so much to say.

I was going to read my section in Humor of the North, and for a minute, I thought it was Tumor of the North
I didn't know East Germany had it's own language. Is that like regular German, only with fewer words for luxury items?Proof reader wanted for Wilkie Collins translation E - Ger

I just read "Tristram & Iseult by Matthew Arnold" as "Tristram Insulted"...
Constructive criticism is greatly appreciated!
Mr. Wooster, how would you support a wife? Well, I suppose it depends on whose wife it was, a little gentle pressure beneath the elbow while crossing a busy street usually fits the bill. (P.G. Wodehouse)
