    I wasn't aware that producing pure bullshit propaganda entailed that much overhead. Go figure.

    I'm more offended by the mashed potatoes.

    How can you abide by dry taters? Yah, yah, the chopped monkey ass-meat (with hair) to the right looks to be revolutionary in its repulsiveness, but, yeah, unadorned white potato is a sin against nature. The markings of a true culinary troglodyte.

    @Spirit Fingers: well, I'm a rare one because I could never understand the appeal of that liquid meat so many people like on top of their taters.

    I posted this Monty Python favorite in the comments long ago, but I think it's time for a replay:

    Horace

    Much to his Mum and Dad's dismay
    Horace ate himself one day.
    He didn't stop to say his grace,
    He just sat down and ate his face.
    "We can't have this," his Dad declared,
    "If that lad's ate, he should be shared."
    But even as he spoke they saw
    Horace eating more and more:
    First his legs and then his thighs,
    His arms, his nose, his hair, his eyes...
    "Stop him someone!" Mother cried,
    "Those eyeballs would be better fried!"
    But all too late, for they were gone,
    And he had started on his dong...
    "Oh! foolish child!" the father mourns,
    "You could have deep-fried that with prawns,
    Some parsley and some tartar sauce..."
    But H. was on his second course:
    His liver and his lights and lung,
    His ears, his neck, his chin, his tongue;
    "To think I raised him from the cot
    And now he's going to scoff the lot!"
    His Mother cried: "What shall we do?
    What's left won't even make a stew..."
    And as she wept, her son was seen
    To eat his head, his heart, his spleen.
    And there he lay: a boy no more,
    Just a stomach, on the floor...
    None the less, since it was his
    They ate it – that's what haggis is.

    @Mike Byhoff: I grew up on the West Coast of Scotland, and (like most food there) haggis is often fried. Also, Scots tell foreigners that a haggis is a small animal that has two short legs on one side of its body so it can run around hills easily. They say that to catch them, you run toward them in the opposite direction and knock them over. It's kind of a Scottish "shooting snipe" story.

    @Encantada: I HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT STORY! Except they said in order to catch them you just stand on the top of the hill and wait for it to come to you.

    And I 100% believed it.

    Stupid Scottish.
