Parsnips.

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Parsnips schmarsnips. I always used to fall for that "roasted parsnips that look like chips" trick at school. Brussel sprouts are the one true vegetable.

Like Ems, peas. Though I have been known to lose control and have the odd carrot.
Loki was never worshiped as the other Gods,

I had the misfortune to have nut roast once when I spent Christmas with 3 friends whom I didn't realise were all vegetarian. It looked like a giant turd on a plate and tasted dreadful, so I ended up scavenging turkey from the neighbours. I don't normally like turkey but at least it took away the taste of nut roast, which shall never pass my lips again.

Which is where you've really got to watch the alcohol. Or you'll get caught out by those parsnips doing roast potato impressions. The number of times...
