Goes to show how absolutely banal and useless the subject of this thread truly is. Paula Deen. What a money-hungry, southern, tacky racist. Never like her or her cooking, even though I love great French butter (Bordier). Agree about butter brand. Your other snoot posts criticizing how we seem to enjoy representing to one another here are inexplicably snotty and offensive. Nobody is compelling you to join in, if you don't like it.

That's the go-to excuse for questionable behavior on the internet. It sounds like something Trump would say to defend his idiotic and racist tweets that are designed to titillate his base. I call it the narcissist defense. 9 hours ago, AdamSmith said: Your other snoot posts criticizing how we seem to enjoy representing to one another here I mean no offense when I say this, because I like you, too, but it seems the crowd who enjoys off-topic, often esoteric posts, is enormously small. Since you and everyone else feels free to criticize me at times, why should I not feel free to offer some of that back? Personally, I don't give a flying fuck about anyone's behavior here. I have no trouble ignoring folks. The participation here is SO DEAD, it doesn't make sense to take the place too seriously. To do so might mean we're taking ourselves too seriously. If I was critical on this meaningless thread, whatever criticism I offered should be considered meaningless. That was certainly my intent. Quote
