In true MFP fashion, it's time for obligatory food porn to calm everyone down:

OMG so many things wrong with this.
I was complimenting someone on their post. How could you have possibly interpreted that as 1. it was an insult to you, and 2. I was claiming to be level-headed in a post on another thread?

The sky is blue today!
What does that mean to you? That I insulted your mother and am claiming to be a rocket scientist?
Just means he has over 8,000 posts but only about 3 of them actually help anyone.
Calm down? My emotions have hardly moved while posting that.
You know what I mean.
It's OK man, his admiration for me is harmless.
I think you're harmless in general.
If that would have made any sense I probably would have been able to provide you with a response.
I think if that reply didn't add to your post count, you wouldn't have said anything at all.0 -

Yup. The sugar thread they just linked you to. She pops in on page 5 with this:DeirdreWoodwardSanders wrote: »I've been on several threads on MFP and I've seen them devolve in exactly the same way -- someone asks a question, someone else comments that sugar isn't very good for them and they avoid it, and then about three people get their hammers out and start bellowing about FOOD POLICE and SUGAR HATERS! and PROVE YOUR POINT WITH SCIENCE OR SHUT UP FOREVER!!!
Well, here's your chance, boys: prove to all of us that sugar is just fine for everyone all the time. Go ahead, there's a tornado watch here and I'll be up all night. I'll wait for your Google links or whatever.
Unless you are going to go the "I don't have to prove anything to you" route while you are all up in arms about the other kids on the playground.
Then after her failed links comes:DeirdreWoodwardSanders wrote: »I could do this all night! But I'm pretty sure I'm about to get scolded for spamming the thread and anyway, the tornado watch is coming to a close. That was a bad storm but no tornados here! I'm tired, and I'm tired of rubbing your noses in your own poop. I'm sure, just like with my dog, it's not going to do any good, and you'll be back on the forums, cracking down on people with your absolute and unshakable belief that anyone with a bad reaction to sugar is a fear-mongering liar troll hysteric.
(On a more serious note, I do want to thank you for giving me something to think about instead of the storm. It really helped me and I had fun instead of being curled up in terror on the bathroom floor.)
Am I the only one where the only thing I got from that was, why would you stay up all night for a tornado watch? They hand those out to like 1/2 the state at a time.
No, that was my first thought as well. Tornado Watch? No way. I used to not even get out of bed unless the sirens were going off but after Joplin and a couple of other tornadoes that hit with no warning, I do try to be more cognizant of Tornado Warnings...
I bet there are people that go to the second floor of their house during flash flood warnings too...
I'm pay close attentions to warnings as a weather geek, but watches....meh. It might not even rain in a watch area.0 -

He just needs to realize I'm before him in the line to hump your leg.
I have 2 legs bro.

I've never lived in an area with tornados before, and I accidentally drove near a tornado, so yeah, now I'm pretty scared anytime the possibility occurs.

People who live in places with infrequent tornado watch/warnings tend to wig out a bit when they hear the word "tornado." It's understandable. Try to chill out. It's very unlikely that you'll be sucked up in a tornado.DeirdreWoodwardSanders wrote: »I've never lived in an area with tornados before, and I accidentally drove near a tornado, so yeah, now I'm pretty scared anytime the possibility occurs.
I grew up where tornado watches and warnings were so common that I don't even know which one meant a tornado might form and which one meant they actually saw at least one tornado. Didn't matter, I always did the same thing: Nothing.
I was near a tornado once. Believe me, when they get close, you know something is up. It's not just creepy weather, with the weird sky and clouds. You just know. People know. Animals know. You can almost feel it in your skin...you become very aware of something awesome, weather-wise.
We didn't even have a TV or radio on and we knew.
When it's real, it's different. Promise.
So don't worry.

I remember a time I was almost struck by lightning. It arced by and landed feet from me but one story down. I'm wonderfully hairy, like the wolfman mated with yogi bear. My arm hair went on end a good 10 seconds or so before the strike. I felt like I was going to get in a fight or puke right before it happened. Then BOOM.

Yep, after finding that pic I think I just rolled up on one of our Thanksgiving desserts.
Probably try and get pumpkin pie ice cream or gelato to place on top.

Sticking around this trainwreck of a thread was worth it just for your description of I'm wonderfully hairy, like the wolfman mated with yogi bear.

The 5 senses is a joke. I can't believe they ever taught that crap in schools (and still do!) We have many more senses than that without even getting metaphysical. A sense of time. A sense of self. A sense of our physical body (this is why we can touch our noses even with our eyes closed.) Balance and temperature. There's lots more.
