Sex & Shenanigans

My dad hasn't been doing well lately. He's 83 and his mind isn't what it used to be. My brother is at his apartment now cleaning out his fridge and sent me a picture of the two bottles of Log Cabin syrup my dad had in there. Holy hells. I knew he wasn't doing great. I had no idea he was doing fake syrup badly.

I’m sorry he’s not doing well… my dad is the same age and also fading a bit mind-wise. But no need to diss the fake syrup! I love that stuff

It’s fine for lubing the snowblower.


That may or may not be a euphemism.

Tell me you put your cast iron skillet in the dishwasher without coming out and telling me you put your cast iron skillet in the dishwasher.

True, but it seems to have affected how much people are willing to share and participate in Lit threads in general, including this one

that sucks

So sorry to hear that

I am too but I use Aunt Jemima syrup...

 

[hotoldrguy]

I think a lot of people have been using fake syrup for years and still think it is maple syrup

PS, note to autocorrect. We are at a stage in our relationship wherein you should now be familiar with my preference for the word f u c k and it's variations. Please accept this is your reality on my phone.

Ducking A!

actually I used to use Vermont Maid which does contain maple syrup... I am not sure what happened
EDIT: just checked the cupboard and I am using Vermont Maid again. It contains maple syrup with a bunch of other stuff

 

[hotoldrguy]

OK Jack and Nathan what brand of maple syrup do you use?

 

[ShaneoD]

I am too but I use Aunt Jemima syrup...

Is Pearl Milling Syrup the same thing? Come to think of it Pearl Milling does sound like some middle class white lady

Yes, I think that’s the name now - the old name & image were changed due to racism

Probably it contains 0% maple syrup

 

[hotoldrguy]

Yes, I think that’s the name now - the old name & image were changed due to racism

Oh yeah, I forgot about that....

Damn white people firing aunt Jemima

 

[hotoldrguy]

I remember when I was a kid there was a topsy Turvey doll in the house. when you had one side up it was a white plantation girl. Then when you flipped it, it was a black plantation maid

Not sure if related to that or not, but MLAS has been MIA

It wasn’t just the Smoking Fap is a creep though. It was also the women who were defending him and victim blaming the women who didn’t like it. As if they had no right to be upset because it’s the internet.

Monkey was spot on here, for me.

It was the lack of support and consensus from others participating in the conversation that really turned me off.
At least for a while, I don’t intend to share any photos of myself. And that’s more because of a lack of support I felt than it is because of the jackass creeps like SmokingFap.

I took a step back for a few because of a number of reasons, but a big one was because I felt like all I wanted to say to everyone was fuck off.
