I can't tell if msbelle is kidding.
I'm disappointed that tea-steeping turned out to be... non-controversial.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Now tagless for your comfort.
I think I'm going to make pad thai tonight.
Dingdingding! That's what we're having. I got a kit at the grocery and need to try it. I think it just comes with the noodles and the sauce and I need to add an egg. Is it ok to add chicken to it? I have chicken I need to use up. Or should I just add some shrimp?
I'm not very pad thai knowledgeable.
Owen is turning out to be my best personal trainer, ever. Every morning after breakfast, he runs to get my sneakers and starts trying to put them on my feet saying, "Time to go to the gym!" I think he really likes their child care center.
And today, Liv didn't even cry when I left--just ran off to play with toys.

Have obtained soup and saltines. Don't know how far I'll get with the soup, though.
I brew loose tea in a teapot, timed for five minutes. Unless it's green tea, then I time it for 3-4 minutes and use water that's not quite boiling.

I KID. I KID!
Not to say that I am not a giant pair of crankypants or that I do not time my own tea steeping. But I would not seriously mock someone for that (unless they timed it outloud/with a loud timer and near me).

You can definitely add chicken to pad thai.

Would you mock if one wrote a C++ program to time tea?

Yes. Pad Thai purists can suck an egg. I'm planning to add chicken and tofu, myself.

I mock programmers as a rule, dontcha know. It stems from my ridiculous need to deny all geek or nerd attributes to a fault. (this is where I compulsively say that I don;t even know what C++ is).

I think pad thai has both, right? even if it doesn't, throw it in there, it's your pad thai.
