i am not being mean to you and you are not being nice
You're talking [censored].
no - it's true. The first post you jumped in with was name-calling and rude.
You added nothing useful to the thread and didn't even tell me what you
would order in a diner. Hmmph.
Hey, stupid. I did exactly tell you what I'd order. Here's the post:
--------------------
Whatever looked good to me that was LC. So what if it's 8:30? Scrambled
eggs, ham and a few strawberries sounds like a perfectly fine breakfast.
But so does a salad (Oil and vinegar), ground beef patty, cauliflower.
Or nothing if you're not hungry. The time has nothing to do with food.
I was never happy when people brought food or drink materials into my
restaurants. There's an implied criticism. Do you bring flowers to a
florists shop to finish making a bouquet?

you know, like egg beaters or something like that
Right. Exactly the same as powdered eggs.
Who cares? Do you really care so much about technicalities and semantics
This is a nice way of saying that the truth of the matter is
unimportant. Facts are pesky intruders.

don't care if it was scrambled jellyfish, it was not an egg out of the shell

Of course i don't know what they taste like - it just didn't taste like a
real egg
Apparently liquid eggs - already mixed - don't taste like eggs to you,
either. What a fine, discriminating palate you have. I don't really
believe that.

ok, well - i eat the eggs i cook. the scrambled stuff at mcd;s seemed

yes, the general public has great insight into egg-substitute products of
the last 30 years.
<LOL> Nothing to say, but say it anyway, huh?

Nope. Fools.
Quoted message said:I can only tell you that she SAID "powdered eggs" and I can tell you that
maybe she was using the term generally, to mean something else. She was
old, maybe she had powdered eggs as a kid.
And *all* old people are, um, like, old and all and they smell
different... Right? And, because she was old she was, like, unable to tell
the difference between liquid eggs and powdered eggs. And she smelled,
like, um, different.
Um, NO - I meant that she may have eaten powdered eggs as a child and was
used to using the term generically. You apparently have some unresolved
issues concerning the elderly.
<LOL> It would be a first for someone to use "powdered eggs" as a
generic term for, um, not powdered eggs.
I *am* elderly.
Quoted message said:Quoted message said:What was the name of this place run by this doddering old woman?
Something like the Jared Cole House - something like that, it was about 6 or
7 years ago...Are you going to go hound the woman about what kind of eggs or
egg substitute she may or may not have used? If they were "real eggs" they
were lousy, I wouldn't recommend ordering the eggs LOL
Google has never heard of it.

tastes like garbage
<LOL> Tastes just like, um, butter. Because it's er, butter.
Maybe in your parts but around here i don't want to dip my bread in
clarified butter,
Hey, obtuse sludgewit, only *you* talk about dipping bread in anything.
You seem to need to hyper-exaggerate to make your points. Perhaps you
note that doing that makes them into untruths.
Quoted message said:it tastes awful and makes for soggy toast. I think I've
seenit done to muffins and corn bread also, ick. Is it a problem for you
that I just don't like eggs soaked in "buttery oil" and soggy bread brushed
with it? (mmm, just like momma used to make!)
Could you be more dense? Could your reading skills be worse? Take you
time answering.
You keep offering these over the top stupidities instead of anythign
approaching truth. Why is that?
Eggs cooked on a griddle with a dash of buttery oil is exactly parallel
to doing it with butter. They can't be "soaked" with it. Too much oil on
a griddle makes for shallow-fried eggs, a totally different texture/ You
still sem to think that buttery oil is used on toast. Can you simply not
read or are you deliberately trying to distort this whole thing into
unrecognizeable nonsense? Do you not see what it makes you look like?
Read the next sentence to see what is done with toast.

sad, they can't take 1 minute to actually butter a piece of toast...and i
did request it without the butter-juice when i used to eat bread
Can you simply not understand declarative sentences? You take a piece of
bread fresh out of the toaster - still hot - and smear butter on it. The
butter, gasp, melts... Or, you take a piece of toast fresh out of the
toaster and brush on some already melted butter. Sad that you can't take a
minute to see the reality.
There's a difference
Really? Either the hot toast melts the butter and cools off or the warm
butter helps the toast stay warm longer so it can hit your table warm.
But that difference would be...?
Quoted message said:Quoted message said:As though somehow smearing hard butter on a piece of bread is somehow
superior to brushing the same thing at a different temperature on the
bread. Somehow.
it is
Really? And it would be because...?

i usually go to real restaurants if i eat out - not sleazy diners.
You are truly hilarious. "Sleazydiner" is now one word - suitable for
*all* diners in your crippled vocabulary.
The few diner-type places I have been to out of this area have been truly
awful. Around here the diners are sleazy. I don't think anyone but you would
argue that.
You have to believe that, don't you? Otherwise all this whining and
self-forgiveness goes to waste. And to make the word "sleazy" mean this
vague but powerfully negative thing.
Quoted message said:The food is decent, not great but "will do in a pinch" and it's
still sleazy.
It appears you don't know what "sleazy" means in spite of acting like it.
sleazy, a. flimsy or thin in texture or substance; lacking firmness; as
a sleazy rayon fabric. Webster's Unabridged.
Sleaze, n. (from sleazy) anything cheap, vulgar, shoddy, etc. (slang)

you immediately resort to name calling, it is very sad. You sound like a
little boy jumping up and down saying "i know all about food and you
don't !! i am important, no really!" well, :oP~~~~ phhtttt. No one really
cares that much.
Nice try, lightweight. The pure and simple fact is that you've shown
yourself to be as deep as a puddle.

This is the only thing you have, isn't it? :o( Have you tried crosswords?
Yes. I do them in pen. But, seriously, this is a great deal more fun.
Playing with you out here in the intellectual sandbox. Where you get the
chance to say whatever you want and so do I. And you keep putting more
and more feet in your mouth.
What a country, huh...?
