  • Did you know couples can pay to spend the day and sleep the night in a coffin separately or in one made for two in Vlad's castle?   :D!!

    I did see it. Sheesh. Wait a minute... You're not implying I should sleep in the coffin too, huh? Toilet seat and now a coffin too. Gah.

    Religion.
    It causes far more harm than good.

    I won't argue you there. I know there will be others though. But as far as goes for me, I'm doing perfectly well without any religion.

    Keeping with the religious theme, why the heck are so many candles lit for the dead?  It's superstitious and a waste of time and resources IMHO.  We need to keep those candles handy for when our power grid in hacked.



    Also, since we are nearing another set of holidays and everyone is talking about Easter stuff like crappy jelly beans :-), I want to put an end to serving store bought Gefilte fish from jars at Passover Seders.  It is the most disgusting thing ever invented and it is pure torture to be forced to eat it.

    Stop the insanity known as Gefilte Fish now!

  • Oh bend me sideways.   I hate Gefilte fish with a passion ever since working a clean-up and maintenance crew art a grocery store.   One Passover the management though having a giant end cap display of Gefilte fish would be a good idea.  As if anyone has ever bought Gefilte Fish as an impulse buy. NO!  They don't,  anyone who ever buys it goes with the full intention of getting something so obscure and vile.   Anyway, it took up way to much space and made navigating the store with carts by  customers and  stock crew with pallet jacks difficult.   So what our crew complained was gonna happen did happen.   Someone knocked over and broke cases upon case of pickled herring and Gefilte Fish .   It was a freaking nightmare to clean up and of course happened on the day I was the only person working on crew.

    There, there. :-)   

    Be grateful you weren't forced to eat that crap as a kid.  I would slather it with 1/2 a bottle of horseradish to cover the repulsive taste.  Just thinking about scraping off that disgusting jelled broth makes me want to heave. Stupid forking traditions. :-(

  • I've tried it several times at Jewish and Polish friends houses.   It's terrible.
