That's a twist

[TMares]

@LiberalSnowflake

Just when I thought this thread couldn’t get any stranger, someone comes along and raises the ante. Good grief.

Several days ago and countless pages of you shut up no you shut up I wondered why anyone would seek out battles at seemingly every turn, especially with a load of strangers who should not matter a whit in her life. It appears I earned a notation in her log of people to be all stirred up about. It’s not remotely normal- maybe for a 14 YO? But this is a grown-ass woman. Whatever, it’s her complexion and her complex, her ‘battle.’ Weird.

In other news, I did correct the store clerk who told me that spaghetti squash turns into meat when you cook it. So I have that dramatic confrontation!!! to report.

@TMares What a “narcissist!” I mean, who has the “resources” to drink cold wine from a handful of gems? Oh, crystals, sorry. Your “pattern,” of “bad behavior,” is ASTOUNDING! Never once in my life have I ever had a record of putting stems in glasses! I’m a perfect citizen! Much like TMares. And MorganSercu & CanteringCarrot & WilburyPie & Green W Envy!
Of course, everything I’ve just stated is exactly what Joanne, herself, “admitted to.” Ive twisted no words! Just trying to aspire to drinking myself to sleep with “delicious,” cold wine, and a handful of gems! Darn it. Crystals! Crystals. Joanne, could it be, you live in a “dream world?” Of course, I don’t KNOW you. I’m just “speculating.” Idk why you’re collecting “stems.” Did you gently pluck them from your sprawling garden of only the finest English roses? Stop bragging. You’re hogging the “limelight.” How rude! L O L …

    I believe this is LK’s parody of what you sound like to her. Note the references to “just speculating” and the accusations of hogging the limelight. 

     It’s not a great parody, no. Perhaps you should dump on her for that. Oh, wait, multiple people already have!  

     Are you so callous that you have never considered what it would feel like to be the target of this?

      Of course you have. You must derive a sick pleasure from tormenting her, while taunting her that her torment of MB was the remote control cause of her own shooting.

@La-LaPopRider

Why is it, when one, some or all of you are called out, you resort to recipes & wine selections? It would be funny if it weren’t so tragically, sad.

If you bothered learning this bb’s history and culture you’d appreciate it.
Your loss.

Later today, after the sun is over the yardarm, I shall peruse the updates to this thread while sipping Spencer Trappist Quadrupel and nibbling smoked Gouda.

@CanteringCarrot

It’s a special thing when a thread reaches the “wine and dine” phase.

I think that the wine and dine posts happen when a poster realizes that they’ve pushed “post” on a nasty or stupid post too readily and have some regret. They are desperate to burnish their creds as having a bare minimum of humanity, but naturally cannot bring themselves to apologize or retract a post. That simply is not done. It would cause loss of (anonymous) face.

@Joanne
had a series of particularly slimy posts then pulled out some elaborate crystal stemware for her crisp white sparkling wine. Also refused to take responsibility for posts by sticking her nose in the air, gathering what shreds of dignity she could, and saying “I will not rise to the bait”. You lot seem to resort to that particular line often.

Henceforth, when someone retreats to the cutesy wine and dine section of the thread, I will interpret that poster as wishing to apologize for previously posted drivel, but being “not [human] enough” to admit it. Note use of square brackets inside a quote.

Henceforth, when someone flounces off saying.”I will not rise to the bait”, I will interpret that to mean, “I have no answer for that”, whether or not they flounce back with wine.

Sharing recipes is the equivalent of walking out of the room when somebody obnoxious shows up. Since you asked.

Why do I hear Sheldon’s voice when I read one poster?

Looks like we are going to be iced indoors by weather today. Ponies snug in their stalls. Anybody have some creative ideas for leftover turkey? Soup is already on. Holding out that we don’t lose power.

Good thing is we have some lovely wine and a variety of crystal stemmed and non-stemmed glasses to savour it, as it should be…slowly and with moderation ;).

Exactly.
So, I have an instant pot dinner planned, chicken quarters, potatoes, carrots and guacamole sauce…thanks to @BigMama1

I found a wonderful recipe for leftover turkey. Sautee some onions and mushrooms together and remove from the pan. Then, make a roux with butter and flour, add some white wine and chicken stock to make a creamy sauce. Then, add the onions and mushrooms back in, along with seasoning, leftover turkey (shredded), and I like to add some parsley. It’s delicious.

Also pairs very well with a nice dry white.

Turkey soup is in the Instant Pot. Love my Instant Pot. Happy cooking.

Nope.

@Sparky

What is the deal? I come on here to find good recipes and wine recommendations and ways to spend a cozy evening at home, and this La la person keeps steering things back to themself? Please, let’s get back to the important stuff. Like, is there a decent Prosecco with a screw top?

I know! I came back to look for the rib recipe and I find what seems like a couple of junk yard dogs barking at the fence.

I would think the equivalent of walking out of the room would be NOT POSTING.

Posting recipes is a way of not engaging in the topic of the thread, because you’ve posted something you regret or have been hammered by an obnoxious person, but you refuse to leave the room.

[Dee-Vee]

@initiate1987 And we shall call it “Turkey à la Twist.”

[CanteringCarrot]

Or it means that the thread is a dumpster fire and gotten to the point of being irrational and/or incomprehensible.

[CanteringCarrot]

I’ve gone back and forth on an Instant Pot or similar device for awhile now, but I still haven’t decided if I want one or not.

@Bogey2

bourbon soaked steak tips, parsnip and apple soup, garlic bread…wait, what were we discussing?

Whoa, whoa, whoa, back that carriage up! Apple soup? Please tell me you have a recipe to share here.
