Yes...

Hmm...

This needs further investigation. I'm virtually certain that there would be a marketable product here.


Spice Milk even sounds tasty. And we could market it has a health thing. I'm sure capsaicin has some purported benefit we could exploit.

Eew, that's nasty. Milk and vegetables do not mix.


I handled it perfectly fine, actually. Just chug it, ignore the taste. Then again, you had to drink it for a relay...

1. How is an actual joke on the same level as "FIRST!" or "last page!"?

2. And the underlined is the problem that's causing the decline of the thread.

3. Actually, I'm only offering advice for improvement.


1. I can be more strict about quality than you. Why? Because I have more material for jokes than you and I can be more eloquent while delivering it. Your joke, if you may allow me to put it this way, was very low quality. Hence, like I said, if you want to speak about quality yea, I'm also entitled to tell you that the quality of your jokes suck and that you need to improve them to make a contribution to this thread since you are making a big deal out of "I'M ON THE LAST PAGE!" posts that only come every once in a while now.

2. So far, I don't see you bitching about the quality of my posts even though I could give less of a shit.

3. What you did wasn't advice, it was merely you taking it out on someone just because of one post.


1. There's an inherent difference between a joke (of any quality, short of just plain offensive) and "I'M ON THE LAST PAGE!" That should be plainly obvious.

2. Because you've not managed to make a poor quality post yet.

3. No. I saw an error. I pointed it out, and offered an alternate course of action. That's advice. I didn't go on an all-caps, insult-filled raegrant. That would've been taking it out on them. There's the inherent difference.

Remarkably cynical of you - I like the way you think.

Initially, I was thinking of some sort of prank-drink, but the market for that isn't all that large - most buyers might only get it once or a handful of times before their friends grow weary or they're left with no friends.

A health food, however...

People will buy that sort of thing time and time again.

Yep. It doesn't even have to work. Hell, it doesn't even need to have an active ingredient. Look at Homeopathic medicines. Our product would actually do something by comparison. :p

Well, it seems I may have spoken too soon with regards to 2.


1. Doesn't matter. Like I said, quality is quality and I did call out on your joke to let you see that quality is subjective.

2. And even if I did (like I just did with the above quote of "First page!" just to spite you) I would still not care.

3. You saw an error, yes, but an error that isn't consistent. If you notice I almost never call out on people, there's a reason behind that - I pretty much use a "3-strike rule" on people when they do something. His post wasn't as egregious as yours was because of different reasons: while he may do it once in a while you have consistently complained about the quality of TET since what? TET 91?

Reminds me of the time my former neighbor's little brother sprayed his dad's (who was a county sheriff's deputy) pepper spray into my eyes. Didn't feel a thing other than what felt like water on my face. Even though it smelled like hot sauce, and tasted like it.
