It is amusing to get into a discussion with an organic nut and mention that oil/petrochemicals are almost 100% organic too (hell the science behind it iscalled organic chemistry)

Quoth Seshat View PostBut then, I'm the one who slept in a drawer more than once when I was a baby.
(Yes, they lined it. With towels, I think.)"I am quite confident that I do exist."

Popping a baby to sleep in a drawer lined with towels is a tradition. Over someone's house who doesn't have a crib and you forgot the portable. Dresser draweeeer to the rescue! At least 5 generations old in my family and going strong.
BTW you know in finland they have baby boxes for new parents? and the box itselt, a simple cardboard box, is the baby;s first crib. http://www.rd.com/advice/parenting/w...leep-in-cribs/ Fancy cribs are for parents. Baby just wants a place to lie down and sleep.

My favorite line on labels is "chemical free". Uh-huh. Everything on earth can be broken down into its chemical component parts. Ugh.
Another favorite was a bag of sugar labeled "carbon free". Sugar. Seriously.At the conclusion of an Irish wedding, the priest said "Everybody please hug the person who has made your life worth living. The bartender was nearly crushed to death.

Quoth AyreBiskits View PostI use a hair dye that says it's "vegan". With all the chemicals in it, why would I care if it's vegan. I'm not going to eat it, lol

99% FAT FREE
On a bag of marshmallows.
Only marshmallows are usually 100% fat free, and almost 100% sugar.
Lucky my mum always said if you cook the marshmallow over a flame, the calories from the sugar melt away. She's right, isn't she?

It's not that, accountingdrone. It's that the chemical forumula for table sugar is C12H22O11. Basically, sugar is a quarter carbon by definition.At the conclusion of an Irish wedding, the priest said "Everybody please hug the person who has made your life worth living. The bartender was nearly crushed to death.

Quoth otakuneko View Post"Would you like some spoo? It's quite fresh."
And did you know that there's no regulation for any labels in the organic category? None whatsoever. So that "organic" tomato you just bought? It could be no different than the "non-organic" one in the next box over. (It's probably from that box anyways, but that's beside the point) And don't get me started on the whole "vine ripened" nonsense.I AM the evil bastard!
