Friday OT #2 - T-bone Steak, Cheese Eggs, and Welch's Grape

[JP4CY]

The thread is very different for me based up seasons because of our garden.
In the summer time I eat an insane amount of lettuce and green beans.

But all in all:
Above: bourbon, steaks, water, vitamins, clone cones
Below: milk, non breaded chicken, apples

My favorite affordable bottle lately has been Rowans Creek.

Haven't tried it. I stay pretty true to Cedar Ridge. Will have to check it out, Hy-Vee?

Toilet Tissue, Diet Mt Dew, Antacids

Below:
Coffee, Tea, Kleenex, Hand Sanitizer

In our household we under use bottled water. At home we drink tap water. If we go somewhere we fill a water bottle we don't take a bottle of water. We have a case of bottled water in the garage that is over a year old. It mostly gets hit when the neighbor kids are over.

We overuse toilet paper. I don't understand why you need to make a giant muff around your hand to cleanse yourself when all you did was take a leak.

Above: rum, cold lozenges, kleenex, popcorn, zucchini, cheese,

Below: sleep, beer

 

[Cyclones_R_GR8]

Campbell's Chunky Beef w/Country Vegetables (7 cans a week)
Nature Valley Sweet & Salty Nut granola bars (8/day)

Before you judge, I have had all sorts of digestive issues, and that combination, with only random additions of other food, has pretty much solved them (along with a pre-biotic/pro-biotic and an acid blocker).

Why the hell would anyone take an acid blocker?

Oh wait, wrong kind of acid. Carry on

Also, I actually enjoy commas too, because it’s one of the few things in English I understand, but many people don’t use them appropriately, well, or properly.

I trend I've noticed recently: People are replacing commas with dashes in situations where, in most cases, a comma will suffice. Too many dashes becomes distracting or intrusive.

***Admission: I use a LOT of dashes (and ellipses) on CF, so I'm guilty, too. But I sometimes approach message-boarding as conversational as much as written communication.

 

[Al_4_State]

Above: canned waster, A1 (never on steak of course), coffee, hot sauce. Cavender’s.

Nationally, I’d say beer, but living in NE IA I’m probably below the local average.

Below: sugared pop, milk, cereal

Commas are often a mystery to me. I know about the separating a list of items. But sometimes I'm not sure if one goes in what feels like a natural break in a long sentence, or not. (Like that one - two words back). In those cases I'll cheat and throw in the dash.

Probably wrong but I do it.

Gallon drinking water. My wife refuses to drink tap water, water from the fridge, water from a Brita filter, etc. So it's become part of our lives even though I find it pretty annoying to drag home 3-4 gallons every trip to the grocery store.

The vixen is the same. I've told her that they fill water bottles and so on right out of the tap, and even though she knows this, she still refuses.

 

[SCyclone]

Above: Paper towels, Kleenex (thanks, allergies!), Canadian whiskey

Below: Water (I tell the vixen that whiskey is 99% water, she doesn't agree)

 

[Nader_uggghhh]

Above: Tap water, meat, hot sauce, cheese, bourbon, yogurt, pickles, bananas.

Below: Bottled water, anything from a gas station, fast food (couple times a year), paper towels.

Side note: You heathens who drink bottled water should invest in a reverse osmosis system!

Way over consume... eggs, coffee, bourbon

Way under consume... water, bread

Also, you way over consume Hawkeye stuff.

Please note that consuming any Hawkeye stuff is too much Hawkeye stuff.

 

[BWRhasnoAC]

Ginger ale with a strong bite and pistachios.

Ketchup, gross.

 

[coolerifyoudid]

over: work
under: sunshine

 

[Farnsworth]

Above: Garlic. If it calls for 2 cloves, we put in 2 full heads (or whatever you call the bunch).

Below: Fruits and Veggies.

 

[kentkel]

Ever since I got a Vitamix last Christmas, I'd say that I am above average on my consumption of Fruits and Veggies. Also, I consume a lot of my news from alternative media outlets (big fan of The Hill.TV)
Below: Fish, CNN-FOX-MSNBC-ABC-CBS-NBC News

This line is great, and so true - Wisconsin influence made it's way across the river.

 

[DeereClone]

I consume an insane amount of cough drops when I am sick. Like a bag of them a day.

Well my daughter's in her first year at ISU, so in terms of spending, I'm consuming a lot more Cyclone stuff than Hawkeye stuff these days.
