Oh, nobody's ever gone so far as to pat my belly. I'm so self-conscious about my stomach, I'd just lose it.
I'm supposed to deliver you to the Master now. There's this whole deal where I get to be immortal. Are you cool with that?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Maybe the egg white would have saved it.
Possibly. I think maybe something that could have made it sweeter would have helped. Like sugar syrup. I guess I thought the grenadine would be sweeter.
THEN we made white russians and used cucumber infused vodka by mistake. tasted... grassy.
After that I stuck to champagne and beer. Much more sensible.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Egg whites in drinks: [link]
A classic cocktail ingredient, often seen in fizzy/foamy drinks, but still way way gross.

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

Cucumbers used to infuse the vodka with a cucumbery taste. I imagine it would be delicious and refreshing in, say, a vodka tonic (I love a cucumber margarita for example). Not so great in a cream-based vodka drink.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
But, honestly, I made enough noise about being happy with the weight gain that I'm surprised so many people think I should be happy by dropping it all, and faster than I put it on. Didn't they believe me?
A friend of mine had ovarian cancer and people kept telling her how great she looked because she was losing weight.
She'd been thin to begin with, she was literally wasting away. And she was generally some shade of yellow. She did NOT look great.
But, hey, less weight = look good and if Cancer patients can't learn that well, sucks to be them.

WTF is that?
It's actually very refreshing in summer drinks. Like with soda and a splash of rose's lime juice.

My MIL got a scale as a present from her husband when she was pregnant, because he thought she was letting herself go (she was not). She has not been right about her weight since.
My DW actually put on lots when pregnant, but took it all off while breastfeeding, which I consider way more healthy and cool than starving yourself and your baby.

Yeah, there used to be egg white in all kinds of drinks, but I've never actually seen on in the wild. Or been tempted to go looking, really.
Someone guy offered me his seat on the bus a few weeks ago. Pretty sure I know what that was about, and am seriously reconsidering the sweater I had on. (I declined, FTR.)

That's so many kinds of wrong, I can't even begin to address them.
