You'll have to ask Racer, Mark or Parallax - I don't have access to the secret moderators' bar.
We don't have a secret bar. That was a rumor started by Rupert. Totally unfounded.
Now excuse me, the ice maker is on the fritz again and it's my turn to go get ice.

Popcorn. I love the stuff. But my last popcorn was November, 2017. I vividly recall this date as I cracked a tooth real good, munching on some popcorn. I had to get a tooth implant.

Forty years previously I broke another tooth on popcorn and got a crown for my trouble in that case.

It has taken my 40 + years to learn my expensive lesson(s), but no more popcorn for me.

I broke a tooth eating Cornuts©.

I was 17.

Haven't had a Cornut© since.

I miss Cornuts©.

Never even got to enjoy Cornuts© with Beer©.

Chipped a tooth on a counter once - the floor was slippy and the face went straight into the counter.

Then I had a root canal in one of my back teeth, which partially failed so I still feel a bit of pain there, but I can't be bothered to pay the dentists more to screw up again. And the filling on that tooth fell out, so it's like a broken tooth now.

Those donut sprinkles will get you every time ! That is why I always take my donuts...old fashioned plain.

When I was a kid my dentist would give out hard candies after a dental visit. Even back in the 1950's when I was 8, I thought that was strange.

My dentist told me to keep away from nuts...they crack teeth easily. No popcorn, no nuts and now after reading Parallax's post...probably should keep away from donuts with sprinkles on them. I guess there's always rice cakes for snacks.

I'll take a bacon maple bar anytime over a rice cake. When I chomp into a rice cake, it's like eating one of those foam coffee cups. I've only had a couple, one of my SIL's eats them...she's into personal fitness.....or something,

What is interesting about this thread is that the OP might get his spelling and choice of words correct when writing it all down, but there is no guarantee that we could understand him if he was speaking. He comes from a small group of Islands where the people eat fush and chups and where cricketers hit the ball for sucks.

Edit. This makes no sense in this thread, and yet some of you gooses (geese) have given me likes. I have just realised that I posted in the wrong thread. It was intended for Mark’s irritating words thread. As the Canucks would say “sorry”, or is that the Vikings?

What happened to your bagel? Looks like the roadway striping crew took a few passes over it, and then tried to cover it up with a hydroseeding machine.

I bet they charge an extra $5 for that treatment.

Even these are weird. Only slightly better, like chewing on a styrofoam coffee cup coated in sugar.
