Another thing the Jews got right.


To be fair the OG Jews did live in a time when the only way to preserve anything was to salt cure everything so it made sense that things that we more difficult to preserve would not allowed to be eaten.

These days they've got that all sorted so they spend their days trying to blow up nuke sites in Iran.

Yes. It’s not the greatest world we live in today.

Maybe if we get rid of refrigeration so people have their time taken up in less aggressive ways salting food and so forth.

Is Headless a boat captain?

 

[Crimson Azure]

Just putting it out there, but if they don’t, I feel that trains should still probably have steering wheels.

Yes.

No clue what you mean but the answer is definitely yes.

Yes indeed. I’m being perfectly respectful and fair to Jewish beliefs about what food to consume - it makes perfect sense. There is quite a lot of good science tangled up in scripture from any ancient faith.

I quite like that science via observation was a thing well before anyone put on a lab coat.

I go the other way. Stuff them, banning their people from eating delicious pork and shellfish! Pretty much anything without a cleft foot is banned too. A bit cruel.

Imagine going your entire life and not being able to consume bacon even once. Never having oysters mornay or Kilpatrick.

In my view it’s a crime to have oysters with anything other than lemon juice and maybe a grind of pepper.

I’m a bit weird though so don’t mind me

For some reason I just remembered one of the very few trivia nights I have participated in. And it was by accident. We were already settled in for a few hours at a nice pub before a trivia thing sort of converged around us, so formed a scratch team entry in order to retain our nice table in front of the fire.

We did pretty well. Actually we won, but it was a bit controversial. We had to write our answers down and one of the questions was “what is an ungulate”. We didn’t know but after some discussion decided it was a mammal with udders. Okay we were wrong, but got points anyway because I drew a really nice picture of a cow - one of those black and white splotchy type dairy cows - with a big arrow pointing to its udders saying “udders” and the trivia guy liked it. It was a very good cow picture.

When it comes to oysters, I can only really enjoy maybe three or four like that, six at a stretch. I do really enjoy them that way but they have to be small ones like Sydney rock oysters not the big Pacific. I can easily put away a dozen oysters Kilpatrick.

I lost a trivia comp by 1 point because called Benazir Bhutto, Beatrice Bhutto instead.

Can’t recall the question but no one else in the entire place had any idea and I got it mostly right, but they wouldn’t give it to me.

I do love me at trivia competition.

I have a house inspection in one minute.

They are going to have to deal with my having not made the bed because it’s cold so the cats have decided not to get up.

12:15 pm what a random time. Did they take lots of photos?

12:15 pm is a very random time given Mrs inspection lady came at 10:15.

Seemed to take fewer photos than usual and left within 8 minutes. Good signs. You need to be concerned where:

• they ask if the owner can accompany the agent
• they bring more than one agent
• they take billions of photos and check absolutely everything
• they arrive with one of those 360 degree cameras.

None of these things mean you are a bad tenant, but any one of them or a combination means that the owner plans to sell.

I have an investment property and the agent asks me every time if I want to come. I say no as it will only frustrate me as the tenants have young children and the place is messy. And I know the agent will just tell me it’s ’normal wear’. The agent always takes a million photos but yeah the 360 camera is a worrying sign if you want to stay there long term.

lol, 12:15.

Really disappointed in myself. 17 likes/reactions ago I could have observed a palindrome of a reaction score of 21112.

Now I have to wait until 22122 for my next opportunity.

Edit: I just realised there is a palindrome thread!

There is a funny story around this but I can’t tell it without breaching the secret mod code.

In other news, I’m not too scared of Scythe because I’ve got some dirt on him
