Hang Out and Post

[Spritzie]

It's been kinda quiet the last hour or so. Pretty much, as soon as I got caught up, everything went quiet.

[IrishLiz]

I was gone for a bit, but I'm caught up now.

 

And I agree with the huge fonts/all caps thing. I associate it with being loud/yelling too, especially the all caps. It tends to drive me nuts.

 

It's Gonzo week here! (Luis Gonzalez - former D-Backs player). Gotta love him. Speaking of the same D-Backs era, has everyone seen this Geico commerical? It makes me laugh out loud. I love it.

lol, a few years ago Randy Johnson was one of my favorite players, and I admit that I would not challenge him in a snowball fight. X.X

[livvy]

Ha, I love those Geico commercials. I like the gecko more, but these are funny too. Have you seen the one with the retired drill sergeant?

[Spritzie]

I like the Geico commercial where the older ladies are all golfing. I thought that one was cute.

[IrishLiz]

I like the Charlie Daniels one too, but then again I'm biased towards anything with violin or fiddle.

[Spritzie]

I think one of my all-time favorite commercials is the one for the Premium M&Ms with the Green M&M girl.

[livvy]

Haha, yes, that's a good one! The pretzel M&M commercial is pretty good too.

[Spritzie]

I love the Pretzel M&Ms. Those are my favorite. I haven't watched TV in months though, so I haven't seen the commercials for them yet. Are they good?

[Noog]

Pretzal M&Ms? *has never heard of them*

 

Has anyone seen the doritos commercial with the guy crazy for doritos? XD

[Spritzie]

They've put out some new M&Ms recently. Pretzel included. And there's coconut ones too, though they haven't totally hit store shelves here yet.

[livvy]

Coconut M&Ms? Bleh. :sick01:

 

I don't believe I have, Noog. I haven't watched TV in a while; most of the commercials I've seen are the ones that come on Hulu.

[Spritzie]

My husband really wants to try them. Personally, I can't stand the taste of coconut. It's just gross. But the pretzel ones are amazing.

[Noog]

I like the taste of coconut.

 

Why is it that every topic here eventually leads to food? o_O

[livvy]

I don't like coconut either. It's nasty. >_> Chocolate and pretzel are an amazing combination though. :imaginary yum smiley:

 

EDIT: It's an unspoken rule of the HOP. All topics will eventually lead to food.

[Spritzie]

:imaginary yum smiley: I agree. It's a perfect combo... sweet and salty.

 

And Noog, I have no idea. They usually do it when I'm at work, and hungry. I guess this time it was my fault... bring up M&M commercials.

[CAV of Gang Green]

Hey guys I'm back.

 

What'd I miss?

[livvy]

It's not your fault, Spritz. Like I said. It's a natural law of the HOP. The IC had a long discussion on our food-centric tendencies.

[CAV of Gang Green]

Pretzel M&Ms are good. But I hate the taste of coconut altogether, so I won't be having those.

[Spritzie]

And we had that long discussion on ice cream in the forbidden forum too. It lasted quite awhile.

[livvy]

Part of the appeal of food topics is the simple fact that everyone eats. It's not one of those topics you can have no opinion on.

 

"Oh, well I don't like food. Next topic please."

 

:P

[CAV of Gang Green]

Oh well I don't like food, next topic please. :P

 

jk.

[Noog]

What if someone comes here with no taste buds? o_O

[livvy]

Then they would have a very serious problem indeed. o_O

 

But it might be a good thing to have no taste buds, because then you can eat nasty, healthy things like spinach without gagging. :yes:

[Noog]

Spinach isn't that bad...unless you cook it :sick01:

 

Most vegetables and fruits taste badly cooked. Tomatoes are one of the only exceptions.
