North's Maple Syrup Flavored Non-Alliterative Random Banter #95 Eh?

North · 02-25-2008, 03:59 PM

The Rules. You! Read these! Eh!

In order to try and keep these threads from becoming unmanageable, some rules have been created, and they accent the forum rules. Please read those first, eh.

1. Spam. For the purposes of RB one word posts should be spam everywhere. Likewise, posts that are nothing but *actions like this* should also be considered spam. Quality of content trumps speed of response.
2. Ditch the "competition for control of the universe" eh. It has ceased to be funny, and often branches out into little mock battles that fall into the spam definition laid out above. We've got a PbP section for fights, and even the Town has an arena, I believe.
3. If it's already a thread, don't bring it to RB. RB has such a huge range of subject matter even restricted to the little snippets that probably don't warrant their own thread, it doesn't need legitimate thread topics cluttering it up as well, eh?
4. Stop advertising other threads in RB. Just because these new threads move at speeds more appropriate to a message board than an IM session doesn't mean you need to come over to RB and brow beat people into posting in your latest brainchild.
5. Please stop with single line posts alerting us to your current status -- as in "I'm back." This is Random Banter, not "How to stalk Random GitP forum members."
6. Do not poke, kick or bump the thread. It will move at whatever pace it wants to. Also, please refrain from Captain Obvious comments akin to "My, the thread is fast today."
7. Random Banter can only be as good, or as entertaining, as you make it. Demands to be entertained will fall on deaf ears unless you can add something more meaningful to the conversation.
8. No asking "What's the topic" or the ilk. This is *not* a conversation where you could've missed the begining, it's a forum where the current topic is nicely recorded for you. So read up a bit first.
9. Thread Creator must include the words "Random" and "Banter" as well as the thread #. Try to be concise as well.
10. Every post should contain two visible, legible complete sentences, Subject and Predicate. C'mon, make your old English teachers proud.
11. Remember, Random Banter is not your IM client. If you want to have a back and forth discussion with just one person, look in their contact information for IM details

Anyone found breaking the rules will be sent to stand in the corner and receive a very stern talking to!

(We all have far too much spare time eh?)

Spoiler

This thread is for random discussion, not random chit chat eh. There is an IRC chat thingy set up for that sort of thing. Not only will you not annoy the people here, you will also help increase the popularity of the IRC chat. It's win/win/win!

Now start with the Random Banter eh!

EH!

Captain Obvious to the rescue!

Do we still boogie the threads?

Jibar · 02-25-2008, 04:01 PM

Let's open with tradition, shall we?

*BOOGIE!*
This thread has been blessed.

Lyesmith · 02-25-2008, 04:02 PM

Only if your name starts with a J and ends with a ibar.

Or starts with an E and ends with a go.

EDIT: NINJA'D!

Dr. Bath · 02-25-2008, 04:03 PM

Yeah. I think so.

Also, *GASP*!

Non-alliterative! Blasphemy! Witch! Burn 'im! Burn 'im with insults.

-Your breath smells funny.

Ego Slayer · 02-25-2008, 04:04 PM

We? No. Me? Yes. Jibar? Yes.

*sneaky 'lil boogie*

*jedi hand* You saw nothing.

Ahem. So, this one is maple syrup flavoured, eh?! Reminds me... I don't think I've got any around. I miss it as a sweetener for tea. Hrm...

Now I want to alliterate with "maple syrup" but I can't think of anything.

Lyesmith · 02-25-2008, 04:08 PM

Maple Syrup's massivley superior random banter #96?
Also, i'm having some fantastic scottish icecream with maple syrup on it Right Now.
And it is goooood.

wadledo · 02-25-2008, 04:08 PM

Garlic is a very "interesting" addition to tea.

And by interesting, I mean disgusting.

But how can you be sure? Peanut Butter and Chocolate seems odd at first glance. You must try yourself!

For Science!

For science, I tried salt on yoghurt. When I was seven.

It was actually pretty tasty

Raiser Blade · 02-25-2008, 04:37 PM

New thread woo!

On the subject of garlic and tea.

Cobra_Ikari · 02-25-2008, 04:37 PM

...the use of science as a motivator has led me to several things that were not good for my health. Including poisoning a chem lab accidentally. >.>

North · 02-25-2008, 04:39 PM

For science Dish Soap and Milk.

Yeah, about as good as you'd expect.

Malmagor Andrigal · 02-25-2008, 04:42 PM

*attempt to Headshoot someone*

*failes, and hits a nuclear waste container*

aw, nunchucks! Everybody run to the pool!

Cobra_Ikari · 02-25-2008, 04:45 PM

Nuclear waste? Very bitter, with a spicy aftertaste. >.>

Ego Slayer · 02-25-2008, 04:45 PM

I have yet to mix up anything really disgusting out of childish curiosity... guess it's too late now. I'm too old for that.

I do remember my brother mixing ginger beer and soy milk once... that was weird.

I'm da Rogue! · 02-25-2008, 04:56 PM

At the age of 4, I thought it was a good idea to eat a large amount of sugar.
(Since sugar=good -> a lot of sugar=awesome)

So, I eat the sugar. But it was too sweet for me.
And the little genious made this thought:

Since salt is the opposite of sugar, I can wash off the taste of sugar by eating salt! ^^

I threw up.

um...yuck?

OK, I am not one to talk about weird food combinations. I eat them so regularly I don't even know what's weird anymore. My lunch wasn't too bad though: sandwich with crumbled feta cheese (since I can't eat most cheeses), ham, apple, and lettuce. We were out of tomato AND mustard. So I used barbecue sauce instead. It was pretty good.

We were going to test the "is everything better fried theory" once. We had a little deep fryer and we were going to make a whole bunch of stuff, and then fry it to test. Our friend kept trying to convince us to do it, but we did not conduct the experiment due to potential mess. Mainly because none of us like to clean.

That being said though, friend twinkies are fantasmic!

Lyesmith · 02-25-2008, 05:00 PM

i used to squeeze yhogurt (the strawberry/rasberry kid you get in tubes) into my bags of salt and vinegar crisps, then shake the about and eat them.

Hot damn, they were awesome.

Cobra_Ikari · 02-25-2008, 05:01 PM

I did applesauce, vanilla pudding, honey, and chicken once...

...not bad overall.

RandomLogic · 02-25-2008, 05:08 PM

Oooo. A friend of mine broke his jaw, so he had to have it locked shut so it would heal. Well because of this he had to blend his food so it would get past the mouth braces. Holy mackerel are blended cheeseburgers disgusting! Also chicken nuggets.. etc etc. He would just eat (drink?) gravy because it came in a jar and it was already liquid.

Dragonrider · 02-25-2008, 05:15 PM

Oooh! Oooh! You know what's really good? cottage cheese and applesauce. All mixed up. Looks like puke, tastes like heaven.

Also: for blenderized Happy Meal, check this out!

Wizard Guy · 02-25-2008, 05:29 PM

When I was six I mixed mayonnaise in with my yogurt. I can't say I recommend it.

There is something to be said about the aesthetic value of a meal.

Ewwww.
