Once again, you offer a non sequitur. The question was about what wine to
serve with crab cakes. The question was not "What would you say the
GENERAL PUBLIC would like in a wine to drink with crab cakes?"

hahaha, *sigh*

And I never said my tastes reflected that of the "general public," since the
very
concept of "the general public's taste in wine" is as addled as you are.
Jesus,

Oh now this reawwy, reawwy huwts. What you mean is, you don't recall the
specifics of the thread you used as an example for, whateverthe****, so it's
just, like, "whatever." lol

Okay, I am going to type slowwwly, so that you might understand. Are
you ready now? Wait, let me wipe that bit of drool off your shirt.

My taste does not differ from that of the OP in that his and mine are both
personal. Subjective. (Take a minute to look it up.) Just like that of
anyone
who offered an opinion. All answers would be "what wine I like with crab
cakes." All subjective. And it matters not what the "general consensus" is
when it comes to taste buds.

"Alcohol centric?" WAH hahaha! Yepper. That's really brilliant.
As for taking anything in Usenet personally, well, that is your department.

They're ALL valid, ****face. It's all subjective when it comes to things
like
this. I said dry would be better, others said sweet, I said "euuuyuu," they
said the same only coached it in terms like "Robert Dickcheese of Gourmet
Poseurs asserted that ..."

I wish I could say that you are a funny, funny little man.

You're just a tiresome little man with a major tiny dick complex.

But please don't go. I am kind hearted and long to give you a chance
to redeem yourself.

True. That's why I didn't say it was you. Since that post, cybercat has
proudly leapt forward to claim her "****tard-of-the-month" title.

NO! YOU'RE *WRONG*! :-)

When it comes to wine, I think people take it way too seriously. I got a
GREAT laugh out of reading a story where a celebrity host served a red-dyed
white wine to a group of self-styled wine experts who were unable to tell
that they were drinking a white wine.

In the crab cake thread, the wine was to be served both with the crab cakes
and a coconut rice which was also bound to be slightly sweet. I think a dry
wine would come across as bitter and vinegary; my recommendation was for a
blend of Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon, which would be about the same level
of sweetness as the food. But of course the ultimate decision was with the
guy who was serving the meal, and I don't believe we ever found out what was
served.

You think it's a non sequitur only because you are very stupid. When the OP
didn't give any particulars about his guests, the safest answer is that
which satisfies the tastes of the general public.

NOW do you get it?



> And I never said my tastes reflected that of the "general public," since

So you admit that your tastes are not in line with what the OP's guests are
likely to like, but you make recommendations for them anyway based on what
YOU would like? Don't you see the logical disconnect there?

Jesus, Limburger-crotch, why not just walk around with a sign that says
nothing? And keep walking until I tell you to stop?

What I mean is that there's no point in wasting the time of the people who
read this newsgroup with a dead issue. But you don't seem to think it's
dead -- maybe you just can't tell that it's dead; maybe you've lost your
sense of smell; that would explain the hygiene issues Greg mentions so
often.

BZZZZZT! Sorry, still a stupid answer: You wrote "Mine did not differ from
that of the OP", and now you're trying to backtrack from that by stupidly
claiming that since all opinions are subjective, they're all the same -- and
that claim is both clearly written above, clearly false, and clearly stupid.

....and NOW you say that all opinions are valid, but THEN you said that
everybody else was wrong, posting "too sweet" again and again. How do you
reconcile that contradiction? I guess the answer is that you have been
caught in a lie -- and SO EASILY!

Your mental master,

Bob

LOL. Maybe when Lucifer was prepping it in front of you but by
the time you reached for it he'd have pranked it. He just

Agreed. And what the hell is up with the "Jill bashing", be it every so
slight or not? I daresay there isn't a poster in this group that hasn't
made either an OT post or an inappropriate post or response at some time or
other. Some people make a career of it. Jill has been a longstanding
contributor to this group, and often offers suggestions, recipes, comments
on restaurants, etc.

We don't all have to like or get along with everyone else here, but the
best policy is to simply ignore those we dont.

maybe not specifically in response to recipe requests, but in
ingredient discussions she often chimes in with 'i never use that.
what would anyone use that? people who use that are stupid.'

remember the lengthy panko thread?

There go the "goddammits", adultry, worshipping another idol (tv), etc.

We Pastafarians believe that we can justify our belief in the FSM
every bit as strongly as Samantha can justify her belief. The
difference is (among others) that we don't believe that those who
don't share our faith will go to hell. -aem

It was a bit ingenuous (or possibly, disingenuous) to expose yourself to

I was taught a grace to be said before breakfast.


Lord, make us not like the porridge,
Stodgy and thick.
Rather make us like the cornflakes
Crisp and ever ready to serve!

She didn't say anything like that. She said, "I tried them, wasn't
impressed, don't know what the fuss is."

I saw him do it on the Johnny Carson Show too long ago.

He was doing a stint on the Batman TV show.

I can't remember his character King Tut ?????

I apologize to the group for allowing myself to be dragged to cybercat's
level.

It really reeks at that level: Either cybercat carries around a rotting
garbage-fed catfish, or that's cybercat's natural odor.

I think I'd rather just drop it. If I did bother to do the time-consuming
search required to prove my point, what would be gained?
