    MrsScouse bought the candy. Everything had peanuts or peanut butter in it. :mad::speechless::cry:
    Knowing I’m diabetic and fkn hate that disgusting shit.

    She put a table out on the driveway with a big bowl of the shit candy and a sign saying please take one. Most! People complied. When it went we just put out the lights and shut up shop.

    some people were handing out through mail slots or open windows. ;)

    You always have the right to be wrong. :thumbsup:

    I will admit that Reese's may not be my favorite peanut butter cup, but they are delicious and almost perfect.

    She was probably thinking you didn't need any candy, and bought it specifically so you wouldn't eat it. I've been around married couples and heard the wives say that shit in person.

    About 15 years ago, I walked in on an argument my folks were having because Dad (who was diabetic) brought something into the house from a convenience store that they both knew wasn't good for him. I ended up taking it home with me and eating it, thus saving the day...

    I have major sweets preferences, as outlined in earlier posts, but really not much of a sweet tooth- I don't eat a lot of it unless it's given to me.

    Therein lies my problem. I have a real sweet tooth, that’s why the Mrs bought that shit. :)

    I’m pretty good about doing without. It’s a better choice than chopping off a foot or two but I do miss my chocolate and sweets. Just a simple Kit Kat would make me so happy. :(:cry:

    Speaking of sweet stuff. I bought a gallon pail of ice cream Wednesday at the grocery store. It's the first time I've eaten ice cream since February, and is one of the 'weakness' foods I used to fall back on when I didn't care what I looked like. The old me would have polished that gallon off in a day and a half or two days. As of today, I've only eaten about a third of it, and most of that consumption was put into a blender when I'm making a protein shake.

    Ok...I admit I tried to pull a fast one on The Great Pumpkin. I really don't have a pumpkin patch but I tried to fool him/her with spaghetti squash. I had ordered Model Master International Orange #4682 to cover them but it's on back order! Obviously others had the same idea. I used some of my daughter's home made marmalade. I though maybe I got some jelly beans anyways but it turns out they were bunny and deer droppings. :(

    I need some help.

    I write a column about the exploits of the Virginia women's soccer team and I need a good sports metaphor for my next column.

    I need an example of a dubious stat. Not an obviously bad one like leading the league in ERA or interceptions, but something that at first blush looks good.

    We played Syracuse over the weekend and their keeper was leading the nation in saves per game. You DON'T want to lead the league in saves per game. It means your team sucks.

    Any ideas?

    Penalties stopped? Late game rallies? Kickoff returns in football?

    off the top of my head ... a great passing % for a CB, who successfully passes the ball a lot, but sideways 50 times per game, covering <20 yards each time?

    If you're a goalie in hockey or soccer and your defense is so bad that you're leading the league in Saves, then your team is in big trouble.

    The Syracuse keeper, leading the nation in saves per game, was as busy as the Energizer bunny against the UVa women. You mean, something like that? OR

    Feeling as if her backline had 2 players missing due to infractions, the Syracuse keeper has been kept busier than usual, as witnessing her nation-leading saves per game average. I don't know...

    Well, that's the point I'm trying to make.

    The metaphor I'm going to use is it's like a safety leading the team in tackles. It's not a good sign.

    whats fun about your question is that it is reverse. I bet the boxer who ever got the most tkos applied to him had the most potential ko revcoverys ever. I don't know how to search that on todays search engines. I don't think todays search engines know how either, even if those stats are right there.
