It is twilight at 4:30pm here at the shortest days of the year. Mind you, Guildford is that little bit further north...

I suppose the real reason for a shortage of medical workers is that they can get better pay working in private American hospitals

The Cake is a Lie. Enjoy eating tons of Rhubarb.

*DW throws up all over the forum*

there are about three foods I cannot stand and rhubarb is one of them

Well, the ingredients for the Portal cake, which ended up spawning "The Cake is a Lie" contained a tonne of rhubarb, in various different forms.

well the cake really is a lie if there's rhubarb in it!

Once I get home, I'll post the ingredients vid off a youtube.

Rhubarb?

I have a good story involving me, and rhubarb pie......

One joyful morning, I got up, went downstairs, and started eying a rhubarb pie that had been sitting on the counter for a few days. But, the thing is that I didn't know it was sitting there for that long.

And since I was a stupid 13 year old at the time, I decided to eat it, even though it gave me a warm burning sensation on every bite.

(It had fermented. Yay!)

It tasted good, so I ate a whole slice.

And I just so happened to be planning to go out in the ministry that day, and well, I had to call in sick to my car group.

Of course, once my friend gets into the car, and everyone asks him why I'm not there, the first response is "Derek's drunk!!!"

(So I've heard. The story has been told in front of me so many times. XD)

Man, I was trippin everywhere! I couldn't even wii straight!

And then the hangover.... ugh...

NOT FUN

Oh, and then the rumors... "Yeah, I heard you got drunk with Tierra last night."

Yeah, my public persona was a bit tainted for a while there.... LOL

I don't know who started THAT rumor, but oh well. It's in the past.

But, never again will I touch rhubarb pie!

(Especially if it's been fermented)

i shut off after the word rhubarb, did anyone get past line two?

Got to "I..."

How can you not like rhubarb? I've had to eat it for years, seeing as we have plenty in the garden. When was the last time you tried it?

i dunno, it's been a while and don;t give me that your tastebuds change crap. By now it's BS, it's not like i was a kid when i last tried it! and i dont smoke either

Maybe he should try the fermented kind, like I unfortunately did. LOL

I don't think anyone really reads his stories/rants now.

No offense to you DJ.

i don't think anyone believes him either

i read it but ive left ruhbarb for days and it hasnt fermented my grandad grows it in his garden and its lovely i could eat it all day

Wait... The ruhbarb fermented? In a pie? How the hell did it do that?

And i hate ruhbarb. It tastes like... Acid.

Ahh, you haven't had enough sugar with it, Thingy.

The thing I don't like is spinach, especially the furriness of you teeth after eating it.

i like spinach. it makes good salads

True, it's not bad raw. It's just that my mother only boils it. I think that's the only thing she knows what to do with veg.

Aaaah, that makes sense. Actually, it's completely possible he's talking the truth. At least give him the benefit of the doubt.

eeew, boiled? that would be gross

spinach curry is nice try it

Ok, Lee eats spinach curry with 'chocolates' for dessert. I'll remember that.

i dont eat chocolate that much i find most makes very sickly

You don't remember our conversation about 'chocolate'?

no please refresh my memory

Remember "Don't eat chocolate from the toilet"?

shem thats about as mature at your avvy...but i was still staring at that guy for like 10 minutes

LOL yeah....and it wasn't me who was immature, it was Lee. I'm still trying to annoy him about it, but he doesn't remember what he said

I love spinach, raw, mixed with eggs (not green eggs, though), and in a soup. I suppose they are boiled to make the soup...
What I really love while raw is carrots, but I just hate cooked carrots!

my favorite veggie is celery with peanut butter.
i just thought you all should know that.

I cant remember the last time i had celery...
Has anyone ever had squid?

Only calamari. Very good.

I don't think the squid i had was Calamari. What about shark?

Nope. No shark.

Oh well. Its a bit bitter.
But still nice.
Prefer squid though.

I've had calamari. Too... Fishy.

I wonder why that would be.
What about crab then?

Crab is great. I love crab.

Hard to get to though. Especially in the legs.
Using chopsticks on them makes it harder.

i remember but im not going to get annoyed its actually rather funny

Mr bean?
meh.
I winder who actually compiled all those poses of his and shrunk it down to an avvy size..

i dislike fish. yes i really am from nova scotia despite what you are thinking right now

:slaps face in astonishment:
Ooo...

And squid is extremely hard not to have rubbery

Then it needs to be fried into calamari. It's a bit easier to eat then.

It depends where you get squid on how rubbery it is. In the UK, its like eating a tire, but the UAE its fresh and hardly rubbery at all.
