Fake news, you and my cardiologist have just been taken in by the man!
Open your eyes, sheeple!

Beer never hurt anyone, well except the guy who was run over by a Tun of Beer or the others who drowned - one in a fermenter the other in the warehouse from the CO2 buildup.
Same goes for Bacon where people have been crushed, smothered, drowned, set on fire and stabbed with bacon.

It is a madd madd world out there - it's also pretty dang crazy in here as well - in all things symmetry.  :-D

Zebediah:
And as long as we're discussing food-related mortality, let's not leave out the Great Molasses Flood of 1919, which killed 21 people in the North End of Boston.

Case:
Resolving tension by means of BizarreFoodAccidents-digression?  Yay!  :laugh:

My favourite:

--- Quote ---Sir Francis Bacon: The former British Lord Chancellor died in 1626 of pneumonia supposedly contracted while stuffing a chicken with snow to test a theory about its preservative properties. You hate to be insensitive, but Pip Wilson's poem is pretty funny: "Against cold meats was he insured? For frozen chickens he procured — brought on the illness he endured, and never was this Bacon cured."

I don't recognise this concept.

I think it's one of those concepts like "Too much bacon" that horrible people make up to try to harm mankind.

--- End quote ---

Oh, like "too much chocolate"!

Is it cold in here?:

--- Quote from: SpanielBear on 30 Jan 2018, 10:44 ---Again, I'm not saying one has to like or even tolerate people or behaviours one finds unpleasant. But if we make them entirely other, something less than we are, we are ignoring the need of self-reflection and the possibility that we ought to check our own behaviours to ensure there aren't uncomfortable paralells. "If bad behaviours are only done by garbage people, and I know I am not a garbage person, my behaviours cannot be bad". I don't for a moment believe that anyone here actually thinks like this, but I worry that characters/people get judged too quickly.

Akima is I believe the one who raised the point in DISCUSS that if we think of ourselves as good people it blinds us to when we do bad things. I forget if it was her or someone else who suggested cultivating humility and compassion as opposed to striving to feel virtuous.

I can't figure out whether I'm being a moderator when I say this so please tolerate ambiguity.

It's worth remembering that a lot of people here must have had backgrounds of witnessing or experiencing violence. When they don't see the humor in Faye they've got good reason.
