*spittake* !!!!



Banjo, please don't be cross with me (I likes you ), but could you make sure that you do not have any beverege in your lovely mouth when you read this? I don't want to have to foot the bill for a new keyboard....I am on DLA.

But, I noticed that our newspaper, The Guardian, wrote a piece this weekend (half way down) about how your Customs people are handing out huge fines for smuggling........................haggis I hardly dare mention the word, I might get banned it seems.

No longer can a gentleman walk through customs, head held high, in his plus fours, proudly strutting his manhood; no longer can a buxom woman steam ahead through the gates, babe in arms clutching at GG bosoms.....Nooooooooo, they are liable to be searched at this time of year, such is the demand for HAGGIS!! There. I said it.

The only criticism of the article, is that they don't distinguish between meaty haggis (haggis who grow up on tasty voles and mice, ferrets and weasels) and the finer vegetarian haggis which only eat grass!

I hereby swear that I will forthwith shut the Hell up on the subject of Haggis. Apologies. :-//

Damn customs.

I agree Banjo, this thread is like a nice talk over a beer but I feel like I'm the drunker of the bunch and just barely keep up with the conversation. So I'll ask, cause that's what I do.

Haggis is a food, right? So why does it seem to me that it's also a toy, a super hero accessory, and perhaps even a pet?

Frotting, I still have no clue what the hell this is. One minute I'm thinking it's some way of making Haggis and the next I'm hearing it might have something to do with sex? To be honest, it sounds more like a way of frothing milk than anything.

"GG bosoms", Flook...I weep for the woman that has to lug these mugs around, even if they are edible(?). (Depending of course whether Haggis is indeed a food or a super hero accessory of course, in which case, I'd like a pair myself)

Banjo my dear, our president is much like my boss. Under qualified for the job, embarrassing to his fellow humans, Obnoxious and arrogant beyond belief and quite honestly the true terrorist. Actually, I'm not convinced that the boss in The Office wasn't based on a mix of my boss and the prez.

Oi barkeep, get me another ale! *hick*

I always understood Frotting to be a sexual term. o.O

yeah um...that's...what....i....um.....


*cackle* Great minds think alike

Frotting is the rubbing of the genitals on each other's body and genitals without any penetration involved. I've noticed people say on a few sites that Oscar Wilde was into frotting rather than penetrative sex. No idea whethere there is any truth in that or if it's made up. I haven't found anything solid on it.

i've heard that...i've also heard of terms like "victorian sex" but i'm not sure if that's frotting...i've also heard that it's sex without removing all your clothes. there's a really interesting gay male website that promotes it above penetrative sex...it's really interesting and even though i'm not a gay man (why did god give me this body??!!) it made me think a lot about all the different possiblities for people who aren't comfortable with the norm.

does anyone know if there are limits to sexuality conversations on here? i don't want to cross a line...

Amazing what you can find on the Internet these days

I'm still confused. It looks like a wormishthing.

What's a bloody haggis?!

Description of haggis on wiki:

Haggis is a traditional Scottish dish.

There are many recipes, most of which have in common the following ingredients: sheep's 'pluck' (heart, liver and lungs), minced with onion, oatmeal, suet, spices, and salt, mixed with stock, and traditionally boiled in the animal's stomach for approximately three hours.

Haggis somewhat resembles stuffed intestines (pig intestines otherwise known as chitterlings or the kokoretsi of traditional Greek cuisine), sausages and savoury puddings of which it is among the largest types. As the 2001 English edition of the Larousse Gastronomique puts it, "Although its description is not immediately appealing, haggis has an excellent nutty texture and delicious savoury flavour." (p592)

Most modern commercial haggis outside Scotland is prepared in a casing rather than an actual stomach. There are also meat-free recipes for vegetarians.

It is often asserted (e.g., on the packaging of MacSween's haggis) that the dish is traditionally served with "neeps and tatties" (Scots: swede, yellow turnip or rutabaga and potatoes; these are boiled and mashed separately) and a "dram" (ie. a glass of Scotch whisky). However, it might perhaps be more accurate to describe this as the traditional main course of a Burns supper, since on other occasions haggis may be eaten with other accompaniments. Whisky sauce (made from thickened stock and Scotch whisky) has recently been developed as an elegant addition.

I've never tried it myself. I've always been curious about it. I want to try more things. I love black pudding. I tried a white one once which was really nice. I totally recommend you try black pudding if you haven't already. It's the perfect addition to an English breakfast.
