Clarification on the meaning of the word 'is': Nazis and the Khmer Rouge - situation as it pertains now, or those groups throughout their history?

Of course the true evil is the lack of tickybox...

Nazis can be sliced, fried, boiled, steamed, grilled or baked: sprouts can only be boiled or eaten raw.

[identity profile] bellinghman.livejournal.com 2006-02-27 03:17 pm (UTC)(link)
Or stir-fried.

I tend to steam sprouts, unlike those barbarians who microwave them.

Apparently, there is a flavour molecule in the humble sprout that most people can't actually detect. Those that can almost unanimously dislike it.

I've never called anyone a sprout on Usenet

I have never had sprouts on a pizza. Er, have you?

And, while we're on the Disturbing Questions: have you ever ordered sprouts as a pizza topping?

Yes (homemade). It was good.

Yeah, but given the contents of your home-brewed wine you could be spokesman for the Sprout Marketing Board of Great Britain assuming Rankin doesn't want the job.

I once made a nut-loaf-alike out of magimixed sprouts, and it was surprisingly good. But I've never been able to find the recipe again.

Food standards in the Uberwald

Sausages made out of equal parts of Neo-Nazis, fat, other material mechanically recovered from the carcass, and breadcrumbs would also be described as a 'Nut-Loaf'.

Hitler's liver or Pol Pot's liver?

You can't have both.

[identity profile] burkesworks.livejournal.com 2006-02-27 03:52 pm (UTC)(link)
I'd want neither of those, and certainly not with sprouts.
But I'll have your marzipan if you don't want it!

Would you settle for half of everything? I just had my paradox repainted.

It's not a statement about the universe, it's a statement about what I'm admitting to. Which is to say, nothing.

[identity profile] cartesiandaemon.livejournal.com 2006-02-27 03:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Nihilism is all your fault?

(No, that doesn't make strict sense either, but is funny imho)

I refer you to my previous answer.

[identity profile] cartesiandaemon.livejournal.com 2006-02-27 03:44 pm (UTC)(link)
I refer you to my next pun.

I won't bother actually thinking of one any more, of course :)

[identity profile] edith-the-hutt.livejournal.com 2006-02-27 03:39 pm (UTC)(link)
So you admit that you're admiting to nothing then?

[identity profile] keirf.livejournal.com 2006-02-27 04:10 pm (UTC)(link)
Denying everything isn't the same as admitting nothing.

Where is "Godwin"? in the list of options?

you fools! look at the title! can't you see that "the depths of evil" is an anagram of "pot fed the elvish" so obviously the correct answer is the khmer rouge!

But Marzipan is *good*.

[identity profile] pseudomonas.livejournal.com 2006-02-27 05:01 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, but not as good as sprouts.

Marzipan is slightly better than Hitler, this doesn't make it *good*

Mung bean sprouts or alfalfa sprouts?
