Geographical Yogurt
« on: December 18, 2010, 12:34:25 AM »
You need to be good at geography to buy Greek yogurt. I heard how good it was for you but our local store only sells “Balkan” – so there I am in the grocery store trying to remember if Greece is part of the Balkan Peninsula. I figured it must be close enough.

"Balkan Yoghurt" sounds like a profane insult and I'm going to use it from now on.

You have to be careful when delivering the dairy insults Roger – they will retaliate by calling you “buttermilk” and then things will just escalate.

Won't some Christmas spirit inflame the situation.  Methinks I shall sally forth back to the bunker for cover.

I just liked the idea of milk products being insults :-)

Talking of insulting people, I notice that Mince is maintaining his self-imposed exile from the boards. I reckon, at this time of year, some of us should furtively try and check up on what he's up to.

We need some Mince Spies.

No, it's all proper Christmassy around here - plenty of mixed nuts and fruitcakes.

I just thought it was ironic that I didn't get the 'dense' insult until after Bill  ;D at Nige's post. Sometimes that Nige is just a bit too clever for me.

You would think so Bill. I tried denseclot which didn't make much sense, then I tried to rearrange the letters to make up a propper word and then I thought maybe Nige was just too smart or had been on a bender and gave up.

I like the pun there 'propper' and 'word'.  Just like military intelligence. 8)
