sometimes ita is full of it
So you disagree with me that takebacks are okay?
I'm so confused.
I may be love's bitch, but at least I'm man enough to admit it.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
It is your opinion that the people they're trying to reach know jack about nutrition. It is mine that there are enough ignorant people for it to be a viable marketing strategy. I have no numbers to provide you, though.
Yeah, you know what I actually think the marketing strategy is, now that I think about it? "Special K makes you lose weight. And you can eat it all the time! One bowl a day? Pfft!!"

You know, msbelle, I can read inside your parentheses. And so can Jesus.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I also think that, if someone is used to having an entire cake as a nighttime snack (or even just a really huge piece of cake like they show in the commercial), they're not going to be able to stop at just one bowl of cereal. (There was some diet book that claimed that a single potato chip has 500 calories, since, once you eat one, you end up eating the whole bag.)

And the looping on this movie is for crap! Audio synch, people!

That's awesome. I do always calculate the full caloric value of whatever package of whatever I'm buying, and plan accordingly. (Sometimes the plan is "be a fat pig, because I still want to eat the whole bag of chips," but at least I'm not kidding myself.)

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
Jesus can see within my heart.
Dear ita,
I said sometimes, I did NOT say this time. I just wanted to lead the Perkins away from thinking anything you said was the be all end all point of something.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
So, everyone should go to foodnetwork.com right now and vote for Guy.
Because OMG his food looks so good! Like, I want to run out and buy ingredients for a second dinner right now. (Unless the teevee thinks I'd be better off having a bowl of Special K, in which case I need to go buy some Special K.)

Good luck with that--see how she clings?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I'm really glad you cleared that up, msbelle. I see now where I have been confused all this time.
hee. Nice x post with ita, who (I see now) really is just not very nice at all.
