I don't know who this person is that you speak of, but he sounds like a pretty awesome dude. Probably devestatingly handsome too.

Mountains in Wisconsin?

B E C K · « **Reply #5 on:** Dec 12, 2010, 04:47:08 AM »

Yes, you know them as "hills".

Rama · « **Reply #6 on:** Dec 12, 2010, 02:34:34 PM »

Reminds me of when I drove to New Orleans, and in southern LA, there was a sign that said "Intersection over hill" and we driving along and then there was the intersection. So I was like "Where was the hill?" "You know that little bump we just went over?" "Yeah" "That was the hill."

In Texas I think they're called planar depressions.

B E C K · « **Reply #8 on:** Dec 14, 2010, 02:43:17 AM »

They call this area where I live "hill country" but yeah, it's all a bunch of little bumps. I'm still envious of those huge, gorgeous green hills I saw in, like, Kentucky or some shit like that. Large and green like those silly ones in a Mario Bros. game.

Derrick · « **Reply #9 on:** Dec 15, 2010, 05:13:44 AM »

But, it is Kentucky.

B E C K · « **Reply #10 on:** Dec 15, 2010, 09:14:53 AM »

That's the price you pay for having giant hills. You can't have everything, Mr. Greedy.

Faye Valentine · « **Reply #11 on:** Dec 15, 2010, 06:28:39 PM »

in my country, we call those "hills" ANDES, biatches

Fiero · « **Reply #12 on:** Dec 15, 2010, 06:34:08 PM »

ANDES NUTS

Derrick · « **Reply #13 on:** Dec 16, 2010, 06:11:52 AM »

Or just Quinoa.

Fiero · « **Reply #14 on:** Dec 16, 2010, 03:34:03 PM »

OMFG I LOVE QUINOA!!

Faye Valentine · « **Reply #15 on:** Dec 16, 2010, 08:54:08 PM »

It's Quinua yo.

Fiero · « **Reply #16 on:** Dec 16, 2010, 09:09:35 PM »

What? No it's not. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quinoa

Oh, that's the Spanish spelling.

I made tacos with it a couple of weeks ago. It could have better, but it was my first time cooking with it. Local vegan place makes that shit do amazing things.

B E C K · « **Reply #17 on:** Dec 16, 2010, 09:56:27 PM »

Tacos with it? How so?

Fiero · « **Reply #18 on:** Dec 16, 2010, 10:00:34 PM »

Mixed it with beans and peppers and veggies and such. My friend who's not even vegetarian did it better than I did, though.

No. its the quechua spelling. cause, you know, quinua comes from the andes, and they speak quechua there.

Sam · « **Reply #20 on:** Dec 17, 2010, 10:05:37 AM »

Kentucky has the Red River Gorge which, coincidentally, is great for climbing.

Kinwa is the Quechua spelling.

Are you going to dispute that with a peruvian? srsly?

Yep. I JUST DID!!!

Like Peruvians know. They're so far away from the Inca you could call me a knight.

Faye Valentine · « **Reply #25 on:** Dec 19, 2010, 08:08:02 AM »

Dude there's still an "Inca" in Peru (direct descendent too btw).
And Fiero, my maids win over some gringo dictionary. SO THERE HAH!

Have you considered that they have over time changed the way they spelled it due to Spanish influence?

Rama · « **Reply #30 on:** Dec 20, 2010, 04:12:04 PM »

My maids say it's Quinoa, but they are German. So what do they know?

B E C K · « **Reply #31 on:** Dec 20, 2010, 09:20:44 PM »

My maids are robots from the future but they don't say anything. All they do is clean. And feel pain.

They can't talk? But then how do they call you Mister J?

B E C K · « **Reply #34 on:** Dec 25, 2010, 12:26:55 AM »

When they writhe in pain. The pain that they feel. All the time.

Rama · « **Reply #35 on:** Dec 25, 2010, 08:53:35 AM »

So do you torture them all the time, or do you have other robots that do that for you ala Jabba the Hutt?

B E C K · « **Reply #36 on:** Dec 27, 2010, 12:12:00 AM »

I have other robots that do that for me. They also feel pain. All the time.

Rama · « **Reply #37 on:** Dec 27, 2010, 01:13:28 AM »

What if they become use to the pain?

B E C K · « **Reply #38 on:** Dec 28, 2010, 01:15:44 AM »

That'll never happen. I constantly update their firmware.

Rama · « **Reply #39 on:** Dec 28, 2010, 12:11:29 PM »

So then how do they preform their maid duties when constantly in pain? I mean wouldn't they keep like dropping the dishes. And then how do you punish them? I doubt hitting them with a riding crop will work as well on robots as it does on human maids.

B E C K · « **Reply #40 on:** Dec 29, 2010, 12:09:34 AM »

They feel the pain but still retain perfect motor function.

I'm just holding out for Jet Packs...and not those lame fly for 15 sec ones, but real Rocketer style ones. If I can get that, I'll mark it a victory.

Threads are never about what they started about because the discussion moves to something else like food or something.
