pr0k posted:oh god drat it just loving click Sorry to read about drama but ahahah that video. I'm easily entertained. Best news of all, my friendly redneck neighbor is looking to make a few extra bucks and offered to mow my lawn. Hell yes you can mow that giant craphole of a lawn! He even got all excited at my mower and took it back to his place for a tuneup and sharpening as part of his all-in-one redneck groundskeeping service. I may have to do some computer work for him as part of general trade of skills but woo hoo, hooray for rednecks.

No no no, she will never offer to scrub your floors. You offer to scrub her floors, she'll laugh at you, then invite you in for a taco. Taaaco. Taaaaaaaaco.

I guess the verdict isn't in, and it could be the liters upon liters of wine I drink daily, but apparently I have some strange form of intestinal swelling and have to get a camera shoved up my butt in a week. awesome. keepin' it classy.

mindphlux, I work in a radiology group, and we had a patient refuse to drink the contrast barium because it didn't say 'gluten free' on the label. Please make sure you ask the tech if your Mag is gluten free when you go in for your test. Please.

Please make sure you ask the tech if your Mag is gluten free when you go in for your test. Please. I would have force-fed them. In other radiography news, yesterday I had an MRI (ah, the chance to sleep) on the shoulder I hurt 3 weeks ago, and I have a fractured scapula blade. That's why it still hurts. Nice to know I haven't been a malingering hypochondriac. Having a gluten allergy would make me very very sad. I hope it's all OK, MP!

The trendy gluten-free thing is the one fad diet that actually pisses me off. My grandpa and several of my cousins are celiac, and can't eat stuff with gluten without getting violently ill several hours later. My grandpa hasn't been able to have real bread for like 30 years  . Then again, all the people who don't even know what gluten is trying to avoid it means there's a glut (heh) of gluten-free things more readily available.

Hey, You know what - my take on it is that as long as the person I'm sitting across is paying the meal, I'll listen to their religion, their take on gluten, socio economics, milk, eggs or aliens (yes - I did a scientology test once, apparantly I was damaged beyond repair, and I was loving 19 at the time, I spend a good 2 1/2 hours discussing with the lady testing me about the individual questions and the rightness of the answers to those questions, ended up accusing her of having a deeply rooted hatred for small mammals, and asking her if she hurt flies as a kid - I guess obnoxious didn't begin to cover what I was, but I got free coffee and had to spend time waiting for a ferry anyways). Also - Is it true that sugar is fattening then?

We had a person get angry the other day because they ordered hummus and they were shocked to find out it came with pita bread. Did we know pita bread was not gluten free and how could we serve glutenous pita bread with hummus without telling people and oh is the sweet potato gnocchi gluten free? It's not! Why not? How can you not make your gnocchi gluten free?

bartolimu posted:Yeah, in my opinion the main positive impact of Atkins and the like is more products for diabetics and better product labeling for everyone. Improved labeling is always a good thing (especially if it scares people). It's really stupid seeing more gluten-free flours than regular flours at Whole Foods, but it's fantastic for people who legitimately need such products. If companies have to make the bulk of their cash from stupid people without legitimate health issues, I'm mostly okay with that. I guess that's the bottom line. As much as it bugs me that people unnecessarily deprive themselves of things, their stupidity improves the lives of others. Is benevolent idiocy a thing?

There;'s about enough there for a decent-length non-fiction article, but you could pad it out to book length, like they all do. "Here's one relatively simple idea which I am going to go on and on about, with multiple examples, so I can publish a book about it!" Gah! Such was my haste that my initial letters were not capitalised. But despite being busy, I WENT BACK AND EDITED THE POST. YOU HEAR ME, MINDPHLUX!?! YOU WANNA PIECE OF ME!?! I'll shove a beet so far up your rear end your tongue will be purple.

I'm now envisioning a world in which idiots are tricked into behaving in ways that benefit society as a whole. Wait, what if that's already what happens, and this gluten-free craze is all because one of the Freemasons is celiac???
